Sorry for the late reply, didn't have email notifications enabled. Direct from Dell website, they have deals occasionally and free shipping / 10% off coupons.kevinf28 where did you buy it? I'm in Toronto looking to get a deal for Black Friday shipped to Canada... would love to hear where you got such a good deal.
Pretty simple, plug in the USB cable to the built-in hub and run the update util (windows app) from Dell support page. Power cycle the monitor. No biggie.Talk to me about the firmware upgrade . How do I obtain it and how do I execute the update?
Sorry for the necro, just picked up one of these.
What kind of keyboard/mouse switching do these monitors have? ...
That sounds totally badass!Ended up picking up 4 of these monitors. Wall of screens, lol.
That sounds totally badass!
Okay.
I received this one right now - Dell P4317Q
I'm on Revision A02.
Let's begin with the Pros
Pros:
+ Nice AG coating, not too hard, nor too light, it is perfect to make it clear and vivid, yet to block ambient light. Really really good quality as well, no patterns, no muddiness, this is ideal.
+ Really good build quality
+ Amazing brightness! I keep it on 100% and it looks amazing! It has enough to work in a room where an entire wall is made of glass
+ Color calibration was easy peasy, in fact you can reach an almost perfect calibration playing with its R-G-B settings from the menu
+ Gamma curves are not spot at 2.2, but very very close on this sample
+ Way less IPS glow than most displays on market
+ Response time good enough for casual gaming. I am not a gamer, but I like a quick display. This is quick enough for me. It can climb to 80 Hz (I read its EDID), but I will not overclock it.
+ Colors look profesinally adequate, bright, vibrant, impressive (nothing like BDM4350 which was dim and washed out, although it was using a similar display?!)
+ You can enjoy immersive content on this
+ Freaking 4K with no need for scaling! You have no idea how refreshing this is for me and for my eyes!
+ Really nice and clear image
+ Got used to it and using it naturally after merely 1 hour of owning it, just like any other DELL, an excellent device that just works
+ Everything works on the USB ports and the Displayports, everything is just plug and play.
+ No weird artifacts, no flickering, no issues with the image in this aspect
Now the cons:
Cons:
- Minor screen burn in, but it is temporary. Just don't keep very contrasting elements for long, for example black and white patterns. Grays don't burn in. It washes after watching some videos.
- Color variation over a large surface - this might be the glow or relfection for me, but I seem to notice that the center is ever a bit less pinkish on blue hues. Again, I think it is a glow effect due to its size, but it should be noted this exists.
- The alien ghosting test shows a very very minimal ghosting trail, but only on gray color, not one bit on black or white. Excellent response, on par with most gaming displays , yet as tech advances, that will probably be changed as well
- Mine has a little point that I can't figure out if it is dust on the display or a problematic pixel . No idea.
- Blurry edges that are shadowed by the physical edges. Underscan does not work (of course it doesn't, who would ever believe it does). Underscan changes the whole resolution making everything extremely blurry, so you either get used to the shadow edges or not get this one . I can't even notice that anymore, but YMMV.
Bottom:
This is an underconsidered monitor. It can easily be calibrated, it can easily be made to look and work awesome. The best 43" I tested, by far. This makes BDM4350 look and feel like a Joke. This is Dell construction and quality here, no joking, no tricks. If you want to go 43", it is either this or nothing. The brightness is the most important element, a screen this size needs a LOT of brightness to feel natural and to feel good. This has it. Please make a conscious purchase.
