00:00:00,040 --> 00:00:07,680
Linus Tech tips coverage of CES 2014 is brought to you by nc.com your source for

2
00:00:05,319 --> 00:00:12,480
great technology selection and service along with Corsair memory and Western

3
00:00:09,920 --> 00:00:18,359
Digital so we've got some alone time with a couple of Dell 4K monitors this

4
00:00:15,160 --> 00:00:20,600
right here is the 2414 Q This is an

5
00:00:18,359 --> 00:00:26,400
ultra sharp display and when they say Ultra sharp I think they actually mean

6
00:00:23,599 --> 00:00:31,680
Ultra sharp this is actually the highest pixel density desktop monitor that Dell

7
00:00:29,000 --> 00:00:37,640
has ever produced and on top of being extremely sharp it is extremely color

8
00:00:35,040 --> 00:00:44,200
accurate so it is has a 10bit panel that means up to 1.07 billion colors and it

9
00:00:41,280 --> 00:00:48,840
comes Factory calibrated to a Delta e of less than two when you couple that with

10
00:00:46,600 --> 00:00:53,440
the exceptional viewing angles and the fact that it's height adjustable

11
00:00:50,600 --> 00:00:58,920
tiltable pivotable swivel pretty much whatever you can think of it's going to

12
00:00:55,520 --> 00:01:00,680
make for one ergonomic and absolutely

13
00:00:58,920 --> 00:01:04,920
beautiful working experience now speaking of beautiful the industrial

14
00:01:02,600 --> 00:01:10,360
design of it is very traditional I actually really like it the last Dell

15
00:01:06,600 --> 00:01:11,960
monitor I bought was a 245 fpw and to me

16
00:01:10,360 --> 00:01:16,600
this looks like kind of like a more modern version of that with a black

17
00:01:13,640 --> 00:01:20,439
bezel with slight silver accents on it it's got uh touch sensitive buttons here

18
00:01:18,960 --> 00:01:23,600
so you can go ahead and press those we've seen this kind of thing before but

19
00:01:22,040 --> 00:01:27,360
it's well implemented here you can see they light up when you even move near

20
00:01:25,479 --> 00:01:31,600
them we're going to go ahead and turn the uh turn the unit around so you can

21
00:01:29,360 --> 00:01:36,640
see how slim it is from the side the answer not particularly slim there's a

22
00:01:34,000 --> 00:01:40,479
lot of Hardware in here in order to get uh

23
00:01:37,920 --> 00:01:45,200
3,840 pixels by 2,160 uses a standard vase amount on a

24
00:01:43,560 --> 00:01:48,920
an aluminum stand so it's just an aluminum base with an aluminum stand

25
00:01:47,360 --> 00:01:53,240
I'll show you guys the height adjust here and in terms of IO you're going to

26
00:01:51,399 --> 00:02:00,719
find uh it's a little bit different than usual there's no dual link DVI there DVI

27
00:01:57,759 --> 00:02:05,880
is does not necessarily work optimally with 4K so guys it uses DisplayPort

28
00:02:03,520 --> 00:02:11,319
mini DisplayPort and HDMI those are your only options the only other I we

29
00:02:08,160 --> 00:02:12,680
find on the bottom is a USB 3 four port

30
00:02:11,319 --> 00:02:17,680
Hub which you're going to be able to use for all your high-speed connections for

31
00:02:14,920 --> 00:02:20,800
that probably quite high-end computer that's running this monitor I think I

32
00:02:19,080 --> 00:02:24,480
went ahead and turned it off there but hopefully you guys still get the point

33
00:02:22,319 --> 00:02:31,239
man it's beautiful even sitting this close to it it's

34
00:02:26,840 --> 00:02:33,200
just crystal clear

35
00:02:31,239 --> 00:02:39,280
kind of want one of these next up we've got the big brother

36
00:02:36,879 --> 00:02:47,519
this is the up 3214 Q from Dell it's got an IPS display

37
00:02:43,200 --> 00:02:50,040
from sharp it's got a usb3 hub it's got

38
00:02:47,519 --> 00:02:56,040
DisplayPort mini DisplayPort HDMI and it's pretty much the same as the 24in

39
00:02:52,640 --> 00:02:58,560
model except for the massive size I mean

40
00:02:56,040 --> 00:03:02,879
you can see me standing next to it I it's it's funny because IED used to use

41
00:03:00,239 --> 00:03:07,879
a 30-in monitor on my desk and I I got away from that because my cat leapt on

42
00:03:05,440 --> 00:03:11,400
top of it and it fell forward onto something and actually cracked the panel

43
00:03:09,840 --> 00:03:15,360
and so it had actually been a while since I had seen one and then I got my

44
00:03:13,400 --> 00:03:19,760
hands on a 30in again a little while ago and I was like wow this is big this is

45
00:03:17,200 --> 00:03:24,239
that experience all over again now if there was one criticism that I had of my

46
00:03:21,920 --> 00:03:28,560
old 30-in it would be that when you make the display that large you lose some of

47
00:03:26,680 --> 00:03:34,120
the sharpness that you would get with something like you know even a a 2560

48
00:03:31,239 --> 00:03:37,519
x440 27in panel just because when they're smaller the pixel density is

49
00:03:35,920 --> 00:03:42,400
higher and it's harder to pick out the individual ones well this alleviates

50
00:03:40,239 --> 00:03:45,760
that problem because this is four times the resolution of a standard 1080p

51
00:03:44,159 --> 00:03:52,920
display so that means it's about the equivalent of looking at you know four

52
00:03:49,080 --> 00:03:54,640
16in 1080p displays Allin one the colors

53
00:03:52,920 --> 00:04:01,280
look absolutely beautiful which makes sense because Dell is promising 100%

54
00:03:58,040 --> 00:04:02,720
Adobe RGB coverage with 9 9% srgb

55
00:04:01,280 --> 00:04:08,040
coverage 1.07 billion colors so that makes it a

56
00:04:05,280 --> 00:04:13,280
10 pit panel and they are promising a Delta e of less than two which means

57
00:04:11,000 --> 00:04:19,400
that color imperfections should be pretty much impossible very very

58
00:04:16,239 --> 00:04:21,000
difficult for the human eye to discern

59
00:04:19,400 --> 00:04:26,720
thank you for checking out this video on Dell's Ultra sharp 4K monitors here at

60
00:04:23,400 --> 00:04:28,880
20 CES 2014 don't forget our trip to the

61
00:04:26,720 --> 00:04:33,400
show is powered by nc.com your source for great technology ology selection and

62
00:04:31,000 --> 00:04:36,960
Service as well as cors our memory and Western Digital without all of those

63
00:04:35,160 --> 00:04:41,639
guys there is no way that we would have been able to be here so thanks so much

64
00:04:38,759 --> 00:04:41,639
for that
