Dell U2725QE Reviews
Surprisingly problematic with MacOS 26.6.2
I'm not thrilled with this monitor. One reason is because the display has an ethernet adaptor that requires a Realtek driver. MacOS uses a generic one which caps your wired ethernet speed at ~45% of the theoretical limit. So your 1Gbps broadband connection max speed will cap out at 450Mbps. The display also regularly complains about the tiny dongle that my Logi keyboard and mouse use to connect to it. The display also simply won't do 120Hz at 3360x1890. It will however do 120Hz at 3840x2160 which is a higher resolution. I have no idea why. I ended up purchasing an external USB dongle to plug into one of the USB C ports in the display that has a proper driver available to fix the first problem and I'm just running at a higher resolution than I want to in order to work around the second problem. Overall, definitely would not buy this again.
It squeals
This monitor has crazy coil whine if you put brightness below 80. You can mitigate by plugging a USB device that will sink power. Dell says this is expected behavior as long as the noise doesn’t exceed 31 dB, which is a lot in a quiet room. So, always be listening to something, or plan your monitor use and phone charging around each other. Otherwise, side by side with an old HP Z27, image is very similar. For color, I can’t tell a difference. Backlight uniformity is better, but HP’s problem is specifically darkness at the edges whereas Dell has slight blobs across the panel. Black is better at low brightness on the Dell though not by a huge amount. Overall, not sure if I will keep it. The thing is, I’m not sure there are any better alternatives in this segment.
