I am very disappointed with my purchase. It Arrived in the Dell factory box in great shape. I mean the box was in great shape. When I finally had a chance to set it up, I found that it had a large flaw on the right hand side of the screen. It looks like a circle of acid rain, streaks of blue and violet with a band of yellow stretching across the center. This was a disappointment, but nothing compared to trying to get results from Dell warranty department. I kept getting dumped to Tech support and they kept asking for the "service tag". I read them every number I could find on the monitor and the box. They told me that none of the numbers were service tage numbers. After the sixth call I finally found a young lady who explained to me that monitors do not have service tags, only computers. Their online service form finally excepted the order number from the box and I am still waiting for Dell to contact me with a resolution. This monitor gives new meaning to "reading between the lines".Read full review
I have two of these monitors so I have a lot of screen real estate to work with and it's very nice to have them be matching with small borders in between. The E248WFP was from the generation just before the 16:9 craze and when 16:10 was in good supply and demand. The E248WFP has really great viewing angles and colors. The E248WFP is also one of the few good monitors out there that has a matte finish, which is superior to glossy in every way except colors at odd angles. Additionally, it's pretty rare to see a dead pixel on these, and Dell carries a 3 year manufacturer warranty on them if bought from them. Though the E248WFP may not be big on features, if you simply have a need for a monitor for a computer and don't want all the extra features and price, the E248WFP is great all around.
I bought this monitor to replace my 22" Apple studio display. My wife wanted my 22" Display because it was easier for her to see than the 17" Display on the family computer in the common area. I have the Dell attached to my G5 Tower via the DVI connector. Set up was automatic and no adjustments were necessary. The $329 price was a heck of a lot less than than the $2500 I paid for the Apple Display in 2003. It was brand new in the box and came with all the cables needed. I replaced the OEM DVI cable with a longer one from Monster Cable. The picture is true HD and makes working with photos and video a true pleasure. This my first Dell product and I'm very impressed. I can work @ my desk longer and feel more productive with this larger, brighter display. I loved my Mac Display but this one won me over Immediately. The monitor has a stable base and can be tilted on a desk on mounted on a wall. Pure pleasure! With the prices on LCDs dropping, this is a great time to upgrade from a smaller Monitor. Your eyes will thank you every time you turn it on.Read full review
Dell's monitors always made me happy. the color is good, the lifespan is great, compared with some other brands, IMHO. Mostly though, i like the size of this monitor. 24 inches is big enough to indulge myself with a feeling of home-theater luxury, but not so big that i have to spend my life savings on it. price and quality are excellent. I love mine, and it makes me realize why i wouldn't be satisfied with my old 19" anymore. Now i'm selling an extra for some lucky bidder out there.
My desktop typically has many programs open. The 1920x1200 max resolution is perfect to display lots of information at once. The ability to use either analog (VGA) or digital (DVI) connections is a plus-- something you don't see on some of the low-cost monitors from the "bargain" web sites. Only downside is no built-in speakers (but you can add the AS501 speaker bar).
wife loves the dual monitors on her desk!

first of all, it is not a ultrasharp. the seller misrepresented that little fact. contrast ratio is only 1000 to 1. dell had it on sale for less than i paid, but that is ok. this is a low end monitor. you get what you pay for. if you are use to cheap monitors, then you may like this one(at least the 24 inch part). i can not wait until i can afford a better monitor. i think if you do not spend at least $700 to 800, you probably are not getting much in the way of good quality. jr houston, tx a # 2407 would be a better dell.
I bought this monitor to replace my 19 inch Acer flat panel. I was amazed when I saw how sharp and clear this Dell is compared to the Acer. It really is like I bought a new, better video card, when all I did is get a new monitor. the same applications/games look so much better on this Dell it's fantastic. Also, the 24 inch size is better than I thought it would be. It's like seeing the world with two eyes instead of one.
This monitor is perfect for gaming, it is simple and cheap. It has all the performance qualities that you would want in a gaming monitor and it is REALLY big. Going from 17" to 24" is quite a difference. I don't find any downsides other than you have to adjust the color settings because the stock settings are terrible.
Bright and clear, this is a great product
