Can you imagine A Dell product without the emblematic Dell logo that dates back to your face? Well, the change is underway while the PC company continues its trip to make the perfect office instructor. THE Ultrasharp 32 4K Thunderbolt Hub Monitor (U3225Q) is another excellent entry into the Elite computer monitor line of Dell, and I will gladly celebrate the more subtle brand.

But is it the best instructor you can buy? Well, he does not use Oled, who is a Hot trend now. But with its “improved” IPS (switching in the plan) Black panel, exaggerated connectivity and chic look, you will not find a better flagship office instructor.

A “improved” Dell monitor

If you saw a high-end Dell monitor, you saw this one. It is a 32 -inch monitor, 16: 9 with a silver back, a support and a base. There are, however, a few things that I can appreciate about it.

The first is his relatively thin dark glasses. Most Dell monitors (even Ultrasharp) have a strip of plastic as a lower telescope to shelter the Dell logo, always looking at you in the face. This is absent here, which makes a much cleaner look. It has all the other useful bits that you expect, such as a wide range of adjustments, including the inclination to enter into a vertical orientation, simple cable management integrated into the stand and VESA support.

But the quality of the image is what makes it distinct. Dell defended “Black IPS“For many years, an LG technology that improves the contrast of IPS panels, a way of competing as an alternative to the OLED, which is often more expensive and can cause problems such as the screen.

The U3225Q, however, is delivered with the new generation black IPS, which increases the contrast even more. How much? Well, from 2,000: 1 to 3,000: 1. These are not OLED contrast levels, but it is certainly a massive improvement in the IP of yesteryear. You will not be able to reach this 100% bright contrast ratio, but the U3225Q still manages to obtain a record contrast for an IPS panel. I did not have the U32223QE model from last year to compare side by side, but the figures speak for themselves. It is simply the best IPS panel I have ever seen, at least in terms of increasing contrast. The advantage of this is dark and richer blacks which are not only gray. The colors also seem a little more vibrant.

As for the brightness, the U3225Q manages to launch up to 417 nits. Everything that is greater than 300 nits is considered to be brilliant enough for office work, but these additional 150 nits guarantee that it will be shiny sufficiently if your office is drowned by sunlight every afternoon.
