The USBs can all be used to charge devices. As for the USB-C, it features a power-delivery rating of up to 90 watts, and thus can perform high-speed charging of, say, a laptop (while, as mentioned, also allowing data transfer over the cable). In contrast, the Asus PA34VC has fewer USB 3.0 ports, but it adds a second USB-C port. Dell U3419W is factory tuned to provide the best viewing performance for office and graphics productivity usage. On certain applications with fast moving images (example. fast moving games), imaging ghosting, which appears as a trailing shadow, may occur. There’s no noticeable ghosting, and for most games outside of first-person-shooters, the response time and refresh rate will be perfectly adequate. And games which support the ultrawide aspect ratio – including Forza Horizon 4 – look epic. Verdict The standard monitor stand is detached when the monitor is shipped from the factory. To learn more about attaching the standard monitor stand, refer to the Setting Up the Monitor section in the User's Guide of your Dell U3419W monitor.

NOTE: Dell U3419W supports display over USB Type-C port with Alternate mode DP 1.2. Ensure that the USB Type-C on your PC supports Alternate mode DP 1.2. Our Spyder 5 Elite confirmed Dell’s own printout included in the box that our sample did indeed cover 99 percent of the sRGB gamut. We’re sure the factory calibration hardware is considerably more expensive than our own in any case.To learn more about connecting your monitor to the PC, refer to the Dell knowledge-base article How do I connect a monitor to a PC?. Change the input color format to PC RGB or YPbPr in the Color Settings On-Screen Display Menu (OSD). The heart of the U3419W is its 34-inch (measured diagonally) panel, with a native UWQHD (3,440-by-1,440-pixel) resolution that works out to a 21:9 ultra-wide aspect ratio. Pixel density comes to 110 pixels per inch (ppi), matching that of the Asus PA34VC. That monitor, like this one, is an in-plane-switching (IPS) panel, and it has the same resolution and aspect ratio. This is a lower pixel density than 4K monitors such as the ViewSonic VP2785-4K (that one comes in at 163ppi), but it is more than enough to ensure image sharpness. If you haven’t used an ultrawide monitor before, it’s quite an experience. More so if your first happens to be a 34-inch model with a curved screen. And that’s what the U3419W offers: an immersive screen that practically fills your peripheral vision. To learn how to setup any other stand with a monitor, refer to the respective stand setup guide for setup instructions.

Motion handling isn’t the Dell U3419W’s strongest suit since it only has a 60Hz refresh rate and a non-gaming response time spec. However, the panel somehow kept up with moderate movements with blurs and smudges only showing up when you pan the screen with a bit of speed. Frankly, this is all reasonable for a 60Hz variant because if wanted better you’d have to go with a 120Hz option like the Alienware AW3418DW. Press Button 1 or Button 2 to highlight Factory Reset option in the menu and press Button 3 to select. Dell’s factory tuning of the Dell U3419W is once again top-notch, giving us an IPS panel that can cover 98% of the sRGB gamut. Average accuracy is superb as well at Delta E 1.69, meaning there are no visible variances in almost every shade available to the display. The panel’s FRC-augmented 10-bit depth helped a lot in this regarding, making the monitor ideal of photo editing and the like.

Dell U3417W vs Dell U3419W - User Opinions

When you notice screen abnormalities like distortion, clarity, horizontal or vertical lines, color fade etc., it is always a good practice to isolate the monitor by running the Built-In Diagnostics. NOTE: USB Type-C power delivery compliant port (PD version 2.0) delivers upto 90W of power. If your laptop PC requires more than 90W to operate and the battery is drained, it is recommended to use the standard AC adapter of the laptop PC to power on and charge the laptop battery. Since 1982, PCMag has tested and rated thousands of products to help you make better buying decisions. See how we test. Featuring easy access connectivity on the side. There are two USB downstream ports with the bottom port also offering power charging. As this monitor also leverages Dell Display Manager, a detailed write up of the software can be found here in the Usability and Features section of our prior curved monitor review. However, a unique feature I would like to highlight about the Dell U3419W monitor is the Picture By Picture (PBP) functionality. When setup for PBP the monitor takes input from two different PC sources and displays them side by side on one monitor. This is a feature I’ve never seen before in a monitor and while in a way it is similar to having a dual monitor setup PBP is an intriguing new technology for those who utilize multiple PC’s. Additionally, the Keyboard, Video, Mouse (KVM) feature pairs nicely with PBP and lets you toggle and control two PC’s with only one mouse and keyboard. Dell U3419W Design and Build

Change the color-setting mode in the Color Settings On-Screen Display Menu (OSD) to Graphics or Video, depending on the application.The Dell Ultrasharp 34 Curved USB-C monitor is definitely a pretty piece of technology with the sleek design in line with Dell’s UltraSharp line of monitors. It features a cure radius of 1900r and WQHD 3440 x 1440 native resolution. The thin bezel along the outside is a feature I find really nice. It’s about as seamless as possible with the display. No POST - Your computer is not showing any indication of activity, the screen might be blank and will not display the Dell logo during start-up. Blu-ray player stops working when the monitor, connected via DisplayPort or HDMI is powered-on or powered-off Be aware that you’ll need a suitable graphics card that can output 10-bit colour and compatible software too: it isn’t as simple as you might imagine. Many ultrawide monitors have stands with feet at the corners, but Dell’s central foot design means the U3419W takes up very little of your desk. Yes, the display itself is very wide: it measures 81.4 cm from left to right, but the stand won’t stop you using the actual space on your desk.
