I keep hearing about people moaning about the dells anti glare and was wondering what people actually hate about it

Having never properly used a glass screen such as the ACD I can't really compare

Right now I'm watching the tv on the u27 and the sun is beaming in and the anti glare is doing its job (really rather well!) but in the dark what are the negatives? There must be some and id love each to compare the 2 types

The u series being my only IPS ive ever seen in don't know what anti glare takes away

It's days like today I'm very happy with the anti glare, i know how hard it is to see my amoled screen in the sun

Thanks
 
Thanks pcm I was hoping you would reply

So it really is a compromise then. My computer room is fairly glarey in summer and right now I have the brightness up to 100 and there's no glare

I really wanted one of the new hazros to compare the glass with the anti glare but the obvious issues made that a no

Maybe the Samsung 850 will be a suitable second monitor that I can replace the u2410 with

Shame dell don't do a cinema version of the u27... I would definitely get that as there's no way im getting an ACD as its apple and expensive
 
Yes it would definitely be impractical for my primary use one, but as a second or game/tv etc panel would be nice with improved contrast especially as where the u24 sits atm is out of the light completely, and I'm also itching to do a comparison most of the cost of my system is monitors and i feel that's the way it should be

So we eagerly await the 850, still a shame dell don't do one as i doubt the Samsung will have the brilliant dell stand.. yes I love that stand and i love the slightly industrial look
