Incredible amount of features and connection options; very impressive aesthetic quality; looks great with games and normal office tasks.
Very expensive even for a 30-inch model with so many features; color performance with movies was extremely lacking; no built-in sound; no coaxial connection for an HDTV over-the-air antenna.
If you're willing to pay the price for beautiful looks and loads of connection options in a 30-inch LCD monitor, you'll like what you get with the Dell 3008WFP. You may be less enthused with this display, however, after experiencing its lacklust

Strong overall performance; its tried-and-true design is both aesthetically pleasing and practical; video connections galore.
Cool preset mode is too blue; no digital audio connection.
The 24-inch Dell UltraSharp 2408WFP display delivers across the board in performance, design, and features. It excelled with movies and games, making it not only an excellent choice as an entertainment display, but also great for everyday Windows tasks.

The Dell UltraSharp 2408WFP delivers rich colors and a slew of entertainment connections.
Excellent color and text quality. Tons of A/V ports. Highly adjustable.
Has trouble displaying the very darkest shades of gray. No auto pivot. You pay a premium price for this premium monitor.
If you're looking to make the move to a 24-inch desktop monitor, put the Dell UltraSharp 2408WFP ($689 direct) on your short list. All Shots Typical of Dell, the 2408WFP is an attractive display with clean lines. They don't have the wealth of...
Dell assembles a winning combination of good performance and great specifications including a memory card reader and display port connection.
Display Port input, Memory card reader
No built-in speakers, Expensive
Regrettably (but understandably) this monitor's high-end performance, myriad features, and input selection come at high price. At about $700, it's one of the most expensive 24-inch displays we've seen
The Dell UltraSharp 2408WFP is a well-designed, fully adjustable 24-inch monitor whose ports and features may justify its premium price. Dell bundles the UltraSharp 2408WFP with a CD containing drivers, a set-up guide, and a users' guide. The...

While most early adopters and Gen Y-ers are used to the idea of watching TV on their PC using services like Bebo, Hulu, Joost or a million alternatives, now the rest of the world is...
Excellent picture quality; great for gaming; plenty of input options
Needs color adjustment out of the box; stand tends to wiggle
Dell's 3008WFP is the first monitor with DisplayPort, but other 30-inch LCDs offer better performance and value.
DisplayPort enabled, Very good text performance
($1179), offer better performance and value
The $1999, 30-inch Dell 3008WFP beats other monitors to the punch as the first display equipped with the new DisplayPort connection. The Dell 3008WFP offers a desirable collection of features, though it ranks last in a group of high performers....
This 30-inch display falls a bit short of its target, unless a splotchy-backlit display is exactly what you're aiming for.
Crystal-clear white; acceptable overall picture quality.
Compressed grayscale; presets lead to color oversaturation.
Dell¡¯s jumbo entry in its Ultrasharp line of monitors, the 3008WFP, performs exactly as the company¡¯s marketing materials promise. This monitor truly ¡°produces darker blacks.¡± In fact, we think Dell¡¯s underselling the device, because the...
The Gateway FHD2400 may be cheaper, but the Dell UltraSharp 2408WPF display is the better value of the two 24-inch LCD monitors. It performed outstandingly in our labs-based DisplayMate tests, delivering quite possibly the best image we've seen for DVD pl...

The 3008WFP-HC is a great and very practical screen but don't expect high performances. It has poor factory presettings, is subject to latency, input lag, shimmering in movies and it consumes too much energy. If only the inside had gotten as much attentio...
Loads of connections, including two DVI, HDMI, and upcoming DisplayPort; beautiful styling; flexible stand; generally good performance; three-year warranty
Some minor weaknesses with color and gray scale; very expensive
Dell's new 30-inch LCD monitor offers advanced connectivity and solid performance in a stylish package, but the price is high.
At a whopping $1,999, the Dell UltraSharp 3008WFP isn't for everyone. Dell has recently improved the design of its products, and it shows in the 3008WFP. Unlike the company's previous 30-inch display (the UltraSharp 3007WFP-HC), which was built...
