Hi there

Price hinting, naming competitors or offering to send via trust is against the rules.

Hello Gibbo

Will you be reducing the price for these on release date?

Can any of the owners tell me what cables are included?

There's power, display port, display port to mini display port, hdmi and usb cables included. I wish I'd also known that before buying a display port cable. Better safe than sorry though.

I'm seriously tempted by one of these, but at the moment I have 3 x 20" monitors. The 20" only have a resolution of 1650x1050, so all in all, screen real-estate would only be marginally smaller with one of these due to the increased vertical resolution.

Has anyone moved from a multi-monitor setup (either 3 or 2) to one of these? I think I may find it difficult with only one screen.

DJ_Switch · 14 Jan 2015 at 18:05

I only moved from 2 screens and it does a better job than having them...for me at least. I suppose it depends on what you use them for and how crucial the screen real estate is. I definitely find having this one screen far superior to the 2 I had before. I had previously used the 2 screens for music production software however I'll be using video editing software more so it made more sense to go for a single screen with a wider aspect ratio. I'm glad I made the switch.

Hi there

DELL delayed the shipment due to some technical issues supposedly and are now saying another 1-2 weeks.

Sounds like they didn't technically put em on the truck to OC in time!

Well I ordered the Dell u3415w yesterday, but I still have to sell off my 3 x 24" ones.

Hi guys, just checked Dells website, they claim they wont be able to ship any of those monitors till 15.02

ya mother · 15 Jan 2015 at 19:58

Fedex is delivering mine as we speak?

Yeah, most other places were supposed to have them in stock this week but all seem to have slipped to next week. Yet , bizarrely some people have already received theirs or are in transit?

Any update from OCUK on what's happening in terms of stock arriving?

Did yours arrive today? Would love to see some pics and hear your feedback if so......!

Macro · 17 Jan 2015 at 08:58

Shame it was delayed as they had a bit of a headstart on the competition. The delay means there's some other options now. I need to do some research, is there something of Dells quality when it comes to monitors at 34", curved and with Freesync.?

According to the fedex tracking it was in Gateshead (5 mile away) at 5.30 this morning.....so i should get it today i would have thought.....i will post some pics up.

I will be comparing it to the X2 LG34-UM95s i have just sent back recently, which were amazing apart from the horrendous bleed. :mad:

ya mother · 17 Jan 2015 at 11:26

Just phoned Fedex to see if it was out for delivery, or if not to see if i could pick it up?
Its at the depot but they shut at 12.....so it's gonna be Monday now.

Nightmare! At least you know it's close but that's still a bit gutting to not be able to use it over the weekend.
