DELL UltraSharp 32 4K Thunderbolt Hub Monitor Review: The best IPS panel

Can you imagine DELL PRODUCT WITHOUT DELL emblematic logo to return to your face? Well, the change is up to date as the PC Company continues its trip to make the perfect office monitor. Thehe UltraSharp 32 4K Thunderbolt Hub Monitor (U3225Q) is another excellent recording at Dell’s Elite Computer Monitor Line and I will gladly celebrate the fine brand.

But is that The best monitor you can buy? Well, he doesn’t use OLED which is a a hot trend at the momentS But with its “improved” IPS (switching in a plane) The black panel, the connected connection and the stylish look, you will not find a better lead monitor of the office.

“Enhanced” Dell monitor

If you’ve seen a high -end Dell monitor, you’ve seen this one. This is a 32-inch, 16: 9 monitor with silver back, stand and base. There are a few things I can appreciate.

First are its relatively thin, black frames. Most Dell monitors (even UltraSharp) have a strip of plastic as a lower frame to shelter the Dell logo, always looking at you in the face. This is absent here, which makes a much cleaner look. He has all the other useful bits you would expect, as a wide range of adjustments, including tilting to get vertically, direct cable control, built into the stand, and Vesa support.

But the image quality is what makes it different. Dell is fighting ”IPS black“For many years, LG technology that improves the contrast of IPS panels, a way to compete as an alternative to OLED, which is often more expensive and can cause problems such as screen burning. For some time Dell has been alone in its IPS black realization, but now other companies such as BenQ and HP have appeared.

However, the U3225Q comes with the next generation IPS, which further increases contrast. How many? Well, from 2,000: 1 to 3000: 1. These are not OLED levels of contrast, but it is certainly a huge improvement in IPS of the past. You will not be able to hit this contrast ratio at 100 percent brightness, but the U3225Q still manages to get some contrast to determine entries for the IPS panel. I didn’t have last year’s U3223QE model at hand to compare side by side, but the numbers speak for themselves. This is just the best IPS panel I’ve seen, at least in terms of increasing contrast. The benefit of this is darkest, more richly looking black, which not only look gray. The colors also look a little more lively.

As for the brightness, the U3225Q manages to throw away to 417 nits. Everything over 300 nits is considered bright enough for office work, but these additional 150 nits guarantee that it will be bright enough, even if your desk drowns from sunlight every afternoon.
