Dell S2740L

Sleek design. Great color and viewing angle performance. Energy efficient

Reflective screen. USB ports are hard to reach. One-year warranty

The Dell S2740L is a beautifully crafted 27-inch IPS monitor with a reasonable price tag. It's a solid performer that doesn't use much power, but its glossy screen can be mirror-like.

It is an IPS monitor (recently switched from TN to IPS and loved the difference) ; The menu buttons are touch sensativy instead of an actual button which helps make the monitor look sleek ; Multitude of different ports so you can use this monitor...

Doesn't have a display port ; Finger prints stay are and are sometimes easily visable, but easy to clean

The image quality on this monitor is simply phenomenal. Colors are bright, contrast is great. The glass screen helps enhance image quality. The response time is also completely unnoticeable, even for gaming. Sure, it's not 1440p but it's by far the...

It's not 1440, but for the price, can't complain. The glass screen is great, but really shows reflections from windows behind it. So if that might affect where you are putting it, keep it in mind

Gorgeous and big

Uneven light across the screen - thanks to Dixon and others below for pointing it out - it is very subtle (I had not noticed it) - but the left 3/4 is a little dimmer and yellowish, and the right 1/4 is brighter and blueish. This is not for a...

as with the reviewer below......i have ordered 4 of these monitors..... the 1st was perfect, the second, the right side was brighter with a bluish hue....sent it back ; the next was the same brighter and bluish on the right side and the touch screen...

the last from dell had the same (bright and bluish) i decided to just keep it for my dual display ; i was really surprised no one else had seen or commented on it online ; untill i saw the post below

Crisp and clear, nice on screen display

Had to return it. On the right side about a third of the screen was a bit blueish, compared with the left side, which was a bit yellowish ; So it faded from yellow (left) to blue (right) ; Tried in daylight and in the evening, separate angles (could...

Great price for a 27" IPS display (I got one direct from Dell recently when they were on sale for under $300) ; Has one USB in and two out ports. Power light is an unobtrusive white dot at bottom right of bezel, next to the touch sensitive switch. The...

The screen is very reflective so it's best to keep the room as dim as possible and not have it facing a window or lamp ; There is some ghosting in games, eg if you look hard and force it by turning quickly with the mouse - I've been playing Far Cry 3...

Initial Review ; So, after have 2 Planar 27" I decided I "needed" these. Well, umm let's just say the Dell's are waaay better in many areas ; These have a glass front which just adds to the wow factor. The best thing is the brightness and clarity....

Not free and I have to sell one of the Planar's (e Bay is a pain sometimes)

Inexpensive IPS panel with glossy (Apple style) screen ; Stylish enclosure (mindblowing stylish for a Dell) ; Low-power consumption ; Excellent OSD ; 1080p great for typical display distances without squinting at microscopic Windows menus and icons...

Would be perfect at 1920x1200 resolution ; Needs adjustable monitor stand as it is too low, though 3rd party VESA support can fix this ; Illumination across monitor isn't perfect, but color is ; IPS glow, but this is expected from all IPS panels

Lots of inputs

The HDMI has no HDCP. Meaning you cant watch Blueray from a PS3 using HDMI. HDCP sucks
