In 2011, I got a Samsung Galaxy SII (still got it as per my signature) and I was amazed at the screen's bright colours compared to a computer monitor.
So I posted in the Monitors section in 2012 asking for a monitor that had a brighter / clearer picture. I was signposted to the Dell Ultrasharp U2412M (24 as in inches and 12 as in the year number). Superb monitor, what the doctor ordered etc, and I had it for 5 years. In 2017, I upgraded to the U2415M (2015 model), and again I liked the picture clarity and colours. 2 years on, it has developed a fault with the USB hub, so while the picture is still good as new, I will be looking to replace it.
Dell still make Ultrasharp models, but they have abandoned 1920x1200! All of them are 1920x1080 after 2015. So can someone please recommend me a 1920x1200 (or any other 16:10 ratio) that is as good as the Dell Ultrasharps / anything close to Samsung SAMOLED?
My computer runs from a cabinet, so a USB hub is again essential!
1920x1200 / 16:10 because I only have sight in one eye and obviously 4:3 doesn't exist any more.
Sharpness due to visual impairment in my 1 remaining eye.
Extra note: I have used a U2419 (2019, 1920x1080) at work and I don't think the picture is as good as on my U2415. Did the range go downhill after 2015?
