Dell monitors with glass/hard plastic screen?


Recommended Posts

Why would you tap the monitor in the first place?

Not quite the point.

 

Besides, I think glass/hard plastic fronts look much better.

 

I don't care about glare.

iMac... :p

 

No but seriously Dell doesn't do any glass fronted monitors sadly. I agree with you that they do look much nicer than the cheap plastic you see on most monitors, they are also easier to clean.

I'm sure the boss had one upstairs - I should check it out.

Well that's totally false, Dell S2740L is edge to edge glass as well as the newer S2715H

 

Problem is with these, is the horrible reflection.

Damn, 27"/1920x1080 only.

 

Not to worry!

Sorry I should have said no current/recent models are glass. That model is from 2012 I think?

The one upstairs is a TN panel.

 

I was hoping for a 1920x1200, 24", IPS, glossy monitor but I can't find one from any manufacturer :p

 

I'll stick with buying a Dell UltraSharp U2415 (1920x1200, 24", IPS, non-glossy).

The monitor you tapped is a LCD. That's the reason it's called Liquid Crystal Display. They don't carry glass for this type of monitor.

 

My 22" LCD monitors have plastic screen. Meaning that they don't get the reflections from the windows or sun.   You can not see yourself on that screen. I like these ALOT.  No reflections at all.

 

My 23" LED monitor has glass.  But has reflections during the day... you can see your reflection on the glass. I use this at night. No problem. (Note, this monitor is facing toward the door behind me. That's the reason I have reflections on it. At night, no problem.)

 

I have an iMac. I don't have any problems with it during the day or night. Of course this has glass as well. If you put it to sleep, you can see reflections on the glass.
