Product Information

The new U2412M has more rounded and softer edges. The bezel is still made from plastic and the monitor now uses physical buttons instead of touch button on the U2410. box the screen used 29.3W of power while at its default 75% brightness setting. After calibration, where we Color accuracy is an important factor but color gradation is equally important. We use color gradients to examine color gradation and we aim for perfectly smooth color gradients without “bands”.

The stand is smaller and has the same soft look as the bezel. It still features all the ergonomic functions such as tilt, swivel, height and pivot. You can also move it slightly higher and lower than U2410. The Standard picture mode is not as accurate as the sRGB mode on Dell’s other UltraSharp monitors, such as the U2410, but the Standard preset on U2412M is fairly good. Dell U2412M has no sRGB preset and therefore we moved on to calibrate the monitor right away. If you're using DVI connection, ensure that a Dual Link DVI cable is used (Supplied together with the monitor). You can only run the built-in diagnostics when the video cable is unplugged and the monitor is in self-test mode.

As stated in the beginning of this review Dell U2412M uses an eIPS panel. eIPS panels have most of the same image characteristics as other IPS variants, which also means that the dirty / crystalized panel coating is present. Some people prefer VA panels because of this. However, if you are used to working in front of an IPS panel, you will have no problem with U2412M. On the other hand; if you feel distracted by the crystalized coating on IPS panels, U2412M is not different from most other IPS based monitors. But is Dell’s new U2412M a true value-for-money product? Is it close to the current U2410? And can U2412M out-perform other IPS based monitors in this price segment? FlatpanelsHD intends to answer those questions and more in this U2412M review. We will also include Dell U2410 comparisons. Our tests revealed that U2412M performs like most mid-range IPS monitors. The bright and mid-intensity colors are reproduced almost flawlessly. The darker end of the color gradient gave us some bands, but nothing serious. Actually, compared to U2410 performance on U2412M is remarkable similar. U2410 has marginally better color gradation in the semi-dark areas but on the other hand U2412M distinguishes the darkest grey tones better.

changed and it remained static throughout. Our colorimeter recorded maximum luminance as 217 cd/m 2 and After calibration we saw very accurate color reproduction with almost zero deviations in either dark or bright areas of the grey scale. Gamma is very close to our 2.2 target and color temperature is almost spot-on. already looked at the OD function available in the factory menu. Studying the detailed spec sheet for I tried to compare my results with Dell U2410 and before calibration that is no doubt that U2412M is a better performer in this area. After calibration U2412M has the edge but the two monitors exhibited very similar results.

Energy conservation: Save energy when your monitor is not in use with PowerNap , a feature that dims or puts your monitor to sleep when it’s not in use. Response time and gamesI moved on to examine response time. Dell U2412M is pretty fast and although it has motion blurring, it is one of the better IPS panels I have examined. IPS panels are not as fast as 120 Hz TN panels but personally I have no problem with using an IPS panel for casual and semi-serious gaming.All other products will be delivered via the fastest available method (excluding bank holidays and weekends) and generally within 3-5 days, depending on customer location.
