As per title, i'm mostly use the monitor for work and gaming balance.
Work: Web Design, PS, Ai, Video Editing, coding, browsing.
Game: CoD, Pro Evo Soccer, Forza Motorsport 6: Apex, etc.
Need you guys advise on which one is fit the bill and value for money
Thanks!
Price is based on Dell Malaysia site, i believe Lazada/11street can get better price.
OPTION #1 - U2417H: RM 1029
Love the design, InfinityEdge thin bezel.
OPTION #2 - S2418H: RM 979
Newer series, newer tech? how about HRD vs Ultrasharp?
OPTION #3 - U2917W (Ultrawide): RM 1599
Any existing Ultrawide user here? Any comment? Never try Ultrawide before .
U2417 any time over the other 2.Work: Web Design, PS, Ai, Video Editing, coding, browsing.
Game: CoD, Pro Evo Soccer, Forza Motorsport 6: Apex, etc.

.U2417:
1) Factory calibrated (since you do design, you'll appreciate the price you pay and get a calibrated sRGB display)
2) 16:9 for your video editing
3) all the ports you need (except VGA)
4) highest price to performance ratio
5) the haze might be a turn off due to matte coating for some people but i find the haze treatment is just right. no big deal.
S2418:
1) Glossy, a huge no no (although Dell says anti glare on its website, this is a glossy monitor)
2) non adjustable stand
3) no vesa mount
4) HDR on a monitor with peak brightness of 250cd/m, dont bother.
5) No display port
U2917W
1) ultra wide does not appeal to me

I'll share what i found, not sure if this help~ the reason why it's cheap
Part of it --> the Stands~
and this~ i noticed it yesterday ~ S2418H uses 6Bit+FRC while Ultrasharp uses 8Bits panel
both U2417 and S2418 is 6bit + FRC. Part of it --> the Stands~
and this~ i noticed it yesterday ~ S2418H uses 6Bit+FRC while Ultrasharp uses 8Bits panel
its quite hard to get a true 8bit nowadays, but to be honest, FRC is so good nowadays you can hardly notice huge differences with true 8 bits panel

in UK Dell website it doesn't show that it's anti-glare
but Malaysia Dell website did stated the monitor come with " Anti-glare treatment of the front polarizer (3H)"
You can confirm with with Dell Customer representative = just give them a call or chat with them~

Just talk to the Dell's CS, U2417H and S2418H bothe anti-glare, means non-reflective...
But i guess i will stick to Ultrasharp, because my current 2007WFP served me for so long since 2008
still work well but just start having backlight bleeding, so looking for successor...
