Dell UltraSharp U2424HE USB C 120Hz monitor with KVM

Recently listed online, the Dell UltraSharp U2424HE USB C 120Hz monitor boasts a 23.8-inch IPS panel offering Full HD resolution (1920 x 1080 pixels) and an impressive maximum refresh rate of 120Hz, doubling the typical 60Hz rate.

For those questioning the need for a refresh rate beyond 60Hz outside of gaming, the enhanced smoothness in regular desktop operations and applications might come as a pleasant surprise. Manufacturers are increasingly opting for rates exceeding 100Hz, even in devices tailored for office use, recognizing the advantages in everyday usability. While Dell’s innovation seems to lack Adaptive Sync, which is a slight drawback, higher refresh rates promise tear-free and seamless gaming experiences.

Reportedly, the Dell U2424HE USB C 120Hz monitor features a 5ms response time (gray to gray), 250 cd/m² brightness, 8-bit color depth, covering 100 percent sRGB, 100 percent Rec. 709, 85 percent DCI-P3, and a Delta-E value of less than 2.

Its connectivity options are diverse, comprising HDMI 1.4, DisplayPort 1.4 (input and output), RJ-45, a USB 3.2 hub, a headphone output, USB-C with DisplayPort alternate mode, and a 90-watt PD offering. Beyond these, it includes docking station functionality, a KVM switch, and supports daisy chaining.

The Dell UltraSharp U2424HE is flexible, allowing rotation, tilting, height adjustment, and pivoting, while also featuring a blue light filter, a flicker-free backlight, and an ambient brightness sensor that adjusts luminance accordingly.
