Default Dell UltraSharp 2707WFP 27-inch Wide-Screen review

I don't see a whole lot of monitor reviews around these days- especially not of ones this big. It's a beautiful piece of gear that i ceratainly cannot afford, even though it's really a pretty good price given the market. Check out the rest of the review at TechGage.

Overall, if you are looking for a large monitor and find the 24" a wee bit too small for your liking, I wouldn't hesitate to recommend the 2707WFP. If I were not in the market for a 30" monitor (for the sake of the higher resolution), this monitor would be my first choice. It costs less than the competition, offers more and looks better. It's hard to go wrong. The biggest complaint I have is that the inputs are hard to get at due to the fact that the screen doesn't swivel all the way up. It's normally a one-time thing you will have to deal with, so it's not too much of a problem, but would have been nice to not run into it at all.
As a last note, Dell includes a 3 year warranty with the monitor, which includes advance exchange. This can be kicked up to 5 years for $104.
  • Pros
  • One of the best looking monitors on the market
  • High-resolution with 6ms (GTG)
  • Plenty of connectivity
  • Handles 720p content well
  • Cons
  • Price ($999)
  • Limited swivel
  • No included speakers

The 24" monitor is the best monitor I have ever used or seen when compared with anything my friends have so if the 27" is even remotely comparable I would definitely buy it
On Dell.ca it is still 1300 CDN
O and wth is this "advance exchange?"

IIRC, they take your credit card info, ship the new monitor out to you, and you ship the defective unit back to them in the same box ...
