UltraSharp 52 Thunderbolt Hub Monitor - U5226KW

I have it and the Samsung 57. I'm loving the Dell. If I had to keep one that's the one I'd keep for productivity. It's over 3k with tax but you can get it down to around 2600 plus tax if you ask nicely in the Dell chat (or at least I did).

I was able to get around 12% off by asking in the chat. Just and FYI for anyone shopping for one. They priced it at around $2530 for me. That's a good life hack for any expensive purchase...

I said I was about to buy one and wanted to know if there were any discounts they could apply to the purchase. I would try a few times if you have no luck. also check rakuten/cashback sites

Just got one as well and have the Samsung 57 for my other computer. Trying to decide if I want to replace the Samsung with a 2nd Dell! It’s really nice. What were you using before?

Yes correct less vertical space, more width and a more pronounced curve. Yes the display issues with the Mac is annoying, hoping the M5 releasing very soon will address that! And there are supposedly two new Apple displays coming out very soon. Studio Display would be my first choice if they came out with a 40” or larger but highly unlikely to happen.

It does some cool switching.. I can run 2 different computer inputs and move the mouse between them..

Dell U5226KW is the best in a 21:9 aspect ratio, however it does lack curve which in my opinion is important for productivity for such a large high resolution screen. I must admit so far I am having trouble adapting to the lack of curve on the Dell 52" compared to the Samsung 57" I have been using for the past two years. I do also feel the Dell lacks brightness over the 57" Samsung - the default 75% setting on the Dell out of the box is far too dim for me. At 100% brightness it is just enough being an edge lit IPS rather than the Micro LED on the Samsung. The Samsung is a much brighter display I find. If you can find a good deal on the 57" Samsung and would consider the 32:9 aspect ratio, I would highly encourage you to look at this monitor also. It provides a great mix for productivity and gaming. The Dell monitor sucks at fast paced gaming to be honest, the Samsung is a much better option if you are playing any fast moving shooters. The Dell will be fine with RTS or similar games though. The additional vertical height of the Dell is nice, however I prefer the extra width of the Samsung so far for both productivity and gaming.

Lol I'm a genius. I should wait until after 7am to reply to posts 😅 I use the 4025 for work and am eyeing the new 52" as well. I'm currently on my 45" LG personal PC monitor; 52" would be a beast 😅

OP - i have the same monitor (52in) as well as the 40in dell....I noticed the screen is not as white as the 40in.....have you noticed a tint, I dont have energy saving on....nor do i have nighttime mode...etc...
