This Monitors give to us some advantages, like this :
1. Great Monitor!!! Still working manufacturing bugs
I recently got this from the Dell website since it wasn't available here at amazon at time. I have to say I am very impressed with the quality of the monitor. The color, calibration, response time, size... pretty much everything. Now, I got my monitor pretty much as soon as they came out and I noticed minor manufacturing defects. Had to have it replaced a couple times until I got a nice working one (knock on wood). So here is a couple of pros and cons:

Pros:
-- Excellent picture quality
-- Great backlight
-- Light and thin
-- USB 3.0 Hub included
-- Many different video input connectors
-- Excellent warranty and customer support

Cons:
-- First two monitors I went through had weird horizontal lines (kind of like inconsistency in the backlighting)
-- Minor manufacturing defects as it most probably was the first batch

Overall this is a great monitor and my cons where mostly based on a couple of faulty units,...

2. Great Monitor - early problems
Great picture - can't beat the size. I had problems out of the box with the menu system not working consistently. If you want to change inputs (ie multiple computers) you need this to work. Contacted dell and was told they won't help because it was purchased from Amazon - no suggestions, no ideas, just out of luck. Good thing it did not work out of the box - apparently they won't honor the warranty when its not purchased directly from dell. Thanks Amazon for the simple return policy.

Could be a Great Monitor if Dell Corrects a Serious Flaw
I bought a Dell U3014 Ultrasharp Monitor based on my experience with a pair of five-year-old Dell 3008WFP monitors and a brand new Dell U2713H monitor. In my opinion the U2713H is the best monitor Dell ever made for professional use. It was so good that I chose the U3014 to replace my old 3008WFP monitors. The specifications are identical with the only difference being the larger size.

Knowing that Dell monitors sold by Amazon do not carry the standard Dell warranty, I bought directly from Dell to get the three-year Dell warranty at close to the Amazon price. I soon found that the U3014 has the same bright and sharp picture as the U2713H but has a serious problem if the user needs to work with darker images such as I do when editing with Photoshop or Premiere Pro. Darker screens suffer from light contamination and bleed over from the LED back lighting array.

I have added a "user" photograph above showing how the U3014 screen will look with dark images. If you...
