And they're IPS panels, meaning they'll look great from any angle. They've got a nice sturdy build, and the displays can be positioned just so, with adjustable height, tilt, swivel and pivot.Tech Advisor90Dell UltraSharp U2412m reviewThe Dell UltraSharp U2412 delivers very good value for money and will appeal to anyone who needs to spend a lot of time in front of their monitor. It's not a multimedia display, but its excellent display quality and ergonomics make it great for design, long-term office use or gaming. Above all, it's an absolute pleasure to use.TechRadar90Dell U2412m reviewIs it worth paying more for all the IPS niceties then? When they come in a package like this Dell U2412M, absolutely... That makes the U2412M a winner. It's a well-built, affordable and adjustable IPS panel.FlatPanelsHD80Dell U2412M ReviewIf you can live without HDMI and do not require the wide gamut panel, I think U2412M is a great value for money monitor.TFT Central90Dell U2412MIf you looking for a good all round screen then this would be a great choice, and in my opinion makes another great addition to Dell's monitor range.

I have an external hard drive, superdrive, and audio port hooked up to three of the USB ports on the monitor with a mini display port to display port cable for video, and apple bluetooth keyboard and mouse. So with just 3 cables (power adapter, mini display port, and USB) my Macbook Air goes from an ultra portable laptop to a full blown desktop. And with the Henge Dock, only have to dock my Air and plug in the power adapter and I'm done. Really love what this monitor has allowed me to do with my setup, at a fraction of the cost of the thunderbolt display apple sells.Engadget Reader80April 22, 2012Feedback submitted!Unable to submit feedback!I like it and I find it very usable.Engadget Reader90March 10, 2012Feedback submitted!Unable to submit feedback!Incredible sharpness and decent colour reproduction. The 16:10 ratio is also great giving you more usable vertical space. Only complaint is the lack of HDMI port. This is a great monitor at a good price for those concerned with colour accuracy while on a budget.
