huh, why not.. price i got few months back was < $1,400.

generally i'm very happy with this monitor except a few small problem;
1. backlight bleed, doesnt affect me too much.

2. some games dun support 21:9 for e.g. Fifa15... they die die dun want to fix. Also some games although in-game is full screen, during cutscene there are black bars by the side.

3. max refresh rate is 60hz which means you see some tearing

I think there are more options for a 1440P monitor at that outrageous pricing.
The ultra wide screen is more for productivity, then again there are many 32-40 inch monitors are better in terms of value and performance than this.

This is a decent substitute for a 3 * xx inch monitor and yet can enjoy the wide screen... very shiok for racing games.. even for movies like LOTR some scenes are amazing due to the landscape.
as for alternatives for this range do look around.
Everything has pros and cons, just make sure you make an informed decision.

personally i feel curved screen is just a gimmick or that this monitor just doesnt 'curve' enough for me to notice the difference.

I'm actually looking for productivity and gaming. This monitor seems to strike my fancy,

Do you wanna consider VA panels from Philips or Samsung?
I dislike ultra wide as some games dont support 21:9. The problem comes in worse when you have black stripes on the side with very bad BLB.

After months of usage, the BIB still there but I hack care cause it is not affecting my normal usage at all. Unless watching video which is not full screen, then I can see those BIB. But, my concentration also in center, so, ignore also, heh heh!

Ok, I mainly use for Lightroom nowadays and good for panorama photos also. But some websites will shift the page to left, quite nuisance at times. I now typing this page, it's in the center, good!

Overall, with discount, I am pleased with what I got. At night, on the monitor and keyboard (if got LED), the room also no need to on light, bright enough, haha!

On the website, it says that the audio out at the back does not support headphones, is that true?

To enable the audio I need to have the correct drivers installed?

Planning to get a [Dell U3415W], on top of my current 22", for my CAD set up.

Anyone has experience with a curve display for CAD? My concern would be that straight lines might look curved.

The 22" monitor will display reference drawings and the 34" solely for CAD.
I do play games too and that is big reason for me to get a 34".

If the curve screen is not optimal, I will be going with a standard 27" 16:9

As an ex user of this monitor the curve really made no difference for me. of course just buy that time it's a very obvious feature.. maybe i sit too close to it very quickly it looks like like any flat monitor, so i feel it's kind of a gimmick...

Thanks for the reply, hope you can answer some of my queries;

-So for you, a similar 34" flat it similar to a curved 1?

-Have you done CAD on the curve display? How did you feel about it?

-what are you using now?

Any news of a successor to this model?

 

[koroshiya8]

There still isnt too many option for 34" widescreen.. may take a while for next model to come out for Dell.

I assume the UP3216Q is newer? Dunno if it can be considered an almost equivalent alternative to the U3415W. I'm starting to look for a new display, & the U3415W appears to be getting a bit dated...
