Product Information

However, I always prefer using a separate pair of speakers to get the highest audio quality. Moreover, the speakers cannot produce good audio when pressed on such a thin and space-limited monitor. Performance And Display The Dell P3421W has caught customers’ attention for its premium design and superior speculations. It’s still symmetrical and aggressive finishes with a familiar silver base, but the monitor’s performance is a true fresh wind! Size: Most ultrawide screens measure between 34 and 38 inches diagonally. You can buy a smaller option, but below 34 inches the advantages aren’t noticeable enough to justify the higher price. If you need something smaller, you’re likely to be happier with the resolution and picture quality of a 27-inch 4K monitor or a 24-inch monitor. On the other end of the spectrum, 38-inch ultrawides require a lot of desk space and cost much more than 34-inch models. Speaking of the monitor stand, this component on Dell P3421W is very beautiful and neat, with the curved sides perfectly matching the curved monitor. It also feels solid and sturdy, providing more confidence in the usage process.

Due to different video formats (aspect ratio) of DVDs and videos, the monitor may display in screen. It is always essential to isolate the monitor while troubleshooting your computer for the following scenarios: Ports: HDMI and DisplayPort connections are both requirements for any good ultrawide monitor, and the best models also include a USB-C port that can send a display signal and charge a connected laptop at the same time. Great monitors should also include a USB 3.0 hub so you can connect peripherals like keyboards, mice, and webcams, since modern laptops come with fewer and fewer ports of their own. Some monitors have KVM (keyboard, video, and mouse) switches, allowing you to connect two computers to the same display and switch between the connected USB devices without needing to unplug anything.

Wireless USB peripherals responding slowly or only working as the distance between itself and its receiver decreases.

Ultrathin bezel minimizes the bezel gap in multimonitor usage, enabling easier setup with an elegant viewing experience Color accuracy: Monitors that come calibrated from their manufacturers have better color accuracy than ones that don’t. And since most people don’t calibrate their own monitors, out-of-the-box color accuracy is important. For the best image quality, a monitor should cover as much of the sRGB color gamut as possible; the more gamut coverage a monitor provides, the wider the range of colors it can accurately represent. Caution: Dell P3421W setup must comply to the recommended panel orientation and working angle only. Setting up the monitor in an orientation that is not recommended may damage the monitor and/or cause a safety hazard.

You’ll get the most advanced DisplayPort 1.2 and HDMI 2.0 for video signals and a high-end USB-Type C slot compatible with DP Alt Mode. The USB-C input can transmit 65-watt of power in charge. You can pair the monitor with basically every other digital device, and the ports will hardly run out. Unfortunately, P3421W doesn’t include an integrated speaker.

Single USB Type-C to supply power (PD 65 W) to a compatible notebook while receiving video & data signal.Resetting a monitor to factory defaults can help resolve many video or display issues. To reset your Dell P3421W monitor to factory default settings, follow these instructions: With the inbuilt KVM, there is no issue with my mouse and keyboard. But I'm wondering what is the best way to switch between input sources to the P3421W? I'm not really looking forward to manually pressing the buttons on the monitor every time I need to switch between sources. Resolution: Unless you’re using your monitor exclusively for gaming or watching movies, an ultrawide should have a resolution of 3440×1440 or higher. That’s the same sharpness as a 1440p or “2K” resolution on a non-ultrawide. The text on every 1080p-equivalent (2560×1080) ultrawide we tested was pixelated and hard to read, and on those models the lower resolution negates the extra screen space that makes an ultrawide appealing. 4K- and 5K-equivalent ultrawide monitors aren’t widely available yet. With 99% of sRGB color reproduction and 1.07 billion colors, Dell P3421 delivers a vibrant and accurate visual experience. The display is also bright and can cope with ambient light effectively with 300cd/m2 brightness.

Of course, you can make the swivel, tilt, pivot, and height adjustments to the stand to suit your sitting posture. There is also a tiny wire hole to help me set up the monitor neatly and save more space. Connectivity And Audio P3421W possesses a similar aesthetic design to the other ultrawide monitors, but it features more sleekness and a cleaner look than the previous model. Display technology and screen curvature: Ultrawide display panels come in two varieties: IPS (in-plane switching) and VA (vertical alignment). IPS is the better all-around choice, with more-consistent color reproduction and solid viewing angles. VA panels have better contrast ratios but suffer from significant color issues when viewed from an angle, which is problematic for a curved display. With few exceptions, 34-inch ultrawide monitors are curved slightly so that they bend inward toward you, making it easier for you to see the whole screen at once. The curve is measured by the radius; the smaller the radius value, the higher the monitor's curve. For example, a 4000R monitor is barely curved, and an 1800R model is more noticeably so. Most ultrawides are 1800R or 1900R.

Where you put your monitor is almost as important as what model you buy. The monitor should be directly in front of you, at an arm’s length away (between 20-40 inches from your eyes). The top edge of the screen at eye level when you are sitting comfortably. You may need to adjust your chair height or the height of the monitor to achieve this. Some USB devices like external portable HDD require higher electric current; connect the device directly to the computer.
