Hello David33275,

Thank you for providing your feedback. We take these reviews seriously and appreciate learning what features our customers like and what they would like to see in the future, such as an adjustable stand. With glare/anti-glare screens, there is some level of personal preference. Anti-glare screen often do not offer as rich of a color experience. Depending on the main use of your monitor, will affect is anti-glare is right for you.

Great Fit...

PostedJanuary 29, 2013
Yes, I would recommend this product
With limited desk spaces and monitor size growing greater, I've had difficulty updating my monitor. This unit is a great fit both in size and quality. Set-up went easily; colors are bright and crisp; screen ratio is perfect for use with Windows 8- being able to see the entire opening screen is a definite bonus in working with 8.
Pros:home, work

It can be better

PostedJanuary 25, 2013
No, I do not recommend this product.
I bought the monitor for home use, internet, video, photo and gamming. It looks nice but some point can be better,the screen have noise in dark screen, especially when I see a movie.
And if the stand hight is adjustable will be more convenience.
Pros:home
Response from Dell.comBy SaraTforDellCustomer ReviewsMarch 19, 2013
Hello S2240L,

Thank you for submitting your feedback. Sorry to hear that this monitor did not meet your expectations. If you are experiencing noise while watching a movie or on a dark screen, feel free to reach out to our support team (Dell Community Forums:
http://dell.to/oepQB0). They would be happy to try and assist.

When it comes to something like a height adjustable stand feature, I would suggest that you check out Idea Storm to see if there is a similar idea you can vote on (or start a new Idea). The way it works is user's will vote and idea up or down. A post with a higher promotion has a better chance of being implemented. Check it out, here:
http://dell.to/LhVYOo. We do have some similar sized monitors that have the height adjustment feature, such as the P2213 (http://dell.to/ZHI77i).

Thank you again for your review. -Sara

Crisp and Vivid

PostedJanuary 17, 2013
Yes, I would recommend this product
Pros; Assembly was simple without looking at directions which is what I always do last. PC recognized display and auto setup. Very crisp HD clarity. Black screen when powered down.
Cons; Wish the buttons were more visible from front. You have to learn by feel and position with your fingers reaching around the right side to make adjustments.
Pros:internet browsing, light home office work
Response from Dell.comBy DonaldDforDellCustomer ReviewsJanuary 21, 2013
Hello PopBull,

Thank you for sharing your time with the Dell - S2240L. I am glad to hear you are so pleased with it's performance. I can appreciate your input on the display controls, this makes it hard to see. As it turns out, marketing research shows people tend to set the preferences and forget it. Then they would rather have a clean aesthetically pleasing bezel. This is the reasoning behind hiding the buttons.

Thanks again for sharing!

Dell 21.5 inch HD Monitor

PostedDecember 12, 2012
Yes, I would recommend this product
Fantastic sharpness with great viewing angle. Not a single complaint on the picture I get. The only drawback in my opinion is that there is no means to attach a center channel speaker. Instead of being mounted to the monitor I have it sitting on the base.
Dell assured me when I called for help that center channel speaker bar can be attached to any of their monitors. Seems they were wrong.
Pros:home use
Response from Dell.comBy DonaldDforDellCustomer ReviewsDecember 14, 2012

Wide Screen monitor

PostedDecember 5, 2012
Yes, I would recommend this product
I purchased this monitor for my spouse. She is delighted. The wide aspect ratio is an a significant improvement from the previous monitor, because it allows much easier to comprehension of "too busy" web pages. The colors are vivid. The figures lucid. The base/stand is sufficiently small so as take up little desk space. This was very important on my spouse's cluttered desk.
Pros:web accessp, shopping, e-mail
