I spent hours reviewing You Tube and written reviews on the U4021QW before I decided to invest in the hardware. Having logged more than 50 hours using the monitor, I completely agree with the positive accolades presented in a majority of the reviews. The consistent negative comment is the price. I suggest that the cost more of a consideration of cost verses value. As an avid Lightroom, Photoshop and ProgeCad user, I consider this to be a reasonable cost for a superior piece of equipment that enhances my workflow.

Because I had all of cables prepositioned, I took me less than 10 minutes to be fully operational. At the aforementioned price point, this is not for everyone. However, for a power user I could not give it a higher recommendation.

This is, simply, a wonderful monitor overall. It's bright, has a lot of features, worked, out of the box with my new Mac Studio. The monitor was easy to assemble (basically, attach the stand). There is no bleed around the edges of the screen as there is with some monitors. However, typical of LED monitors, there is bleed-through on the screen during dark images. This can, however, be offset to some degree by dimming the LEDs. Further, the bleed-through is not that significant under normal usage conditions like working in an office setting during the day and with typical lighting.Of course, as with most monitors, there is always something that can be improved upon.

I know it was an attempt to make the front more appealing but I would think that convenience and practicality should also be of some importance. I don't know why monitors can not have their controls, or at least the important ones (e.g., volume, brightness), located on the front of the panel. Even with the programmable shortcuts, it is, to my way of thinking, cumbersome to adjust. The only other thing I would change would be the sound quality. It is not very good and one would think that a monitor in this price range would have better audio quality. Nevertheless, overall, I love this monitor and I would buy it again.

This Dell 40-inch monitor's main attraction is that it offers enough desktop real estate to compare two documents side by side while also viewing your calendar, to-do lists, and other important windows. Resolution is adequate - comparable to that offered by an iMac - as is color and speed; the optimization compromises made with cost are sensible; there are no gross deficiencies. The stand is excellent and offers good vertical, tilt, and swivel adjustment. Blacks are slightly gray, and brightness might not be adequate in an extremely well-lit room, if those factors matter to you. The buyer should also be aware of a few nits: it's impossible to see directly the ports for plugging in cables, but use of a phone's front camera set underneath the monitor can get the job ...

The brightness can't be controlled by a Mac directly, but Dell provides a somewhat awkward app accessible from the menu bar that solves the problem. There's no built-in camera, but Logitech offers good ones that work well with it. You'll likely want much better speakers than the built-in ones. You'll also likely want third-party apps that give you more options for screen pixel count than the defaults. At the maximum resolution print sizes are quite tiny; setting larger font size choices in 'view options' helps, except that menu bar icon sizes do not seem to be adjustable. Since solving these setup issues, I've loved using this monitor. If you need a monitor with generous screen area, this one merits your consideration!

This monitor is simply outstanding. As a biomedical scientist, I need to be able to read papers, review grants and analyze data, all of which requiring multiple documents to be open simultaneously. This monitor gives me the desktop space to do that easily and comfortably. I can have an XL dataset open together with MATLAB command and editing windows. I can have word documents open at the same time as a PDF viewer and a reference program. No more shuffling windows around - everything is open in different parts of the screen. The curved screen makes it easy to view the wide field. The excellent resolution and color accuracy makes viewing microscopy images or protein 3D structures a real pleasure. I don't know how I lived without this awesome monitor before!
Very happy with this monitor. I'm using it as a display for my MacBook Pro M1 and a desktop PC. The built in KVM switch works almost flawlessly so I can switch between Mac and PC very quickly and easily. Very very occasionally it doesn't bring the keyboard along with it when I switch, but a quick power cycle of the monitor takes care of that. It has only happened twice in the few weeks I have owned it though, so it's really not a concern given the workaround is so easy.The monitor size is absolutely fantastic for coding, which is my primary use case. The added width versus a traditional monitor allows me to position my IDE so that my main code editor is directly in front of me instead of slightly to one side. That is a very nice ergonomic win.

The added width versus a traditional monitor allows me to position my IDE so that my main code editor is directly in front of me instead of slightly to one side. That is a very nice ergonomic win. The additional screen real estate allows me to keep documentation or a running app visible alongside the IDE. It really is a superb setup. Not cheap, but there is a lot to be gained here.Text is crisp and clear. I migrated from a 27" iMac 5K so I was slightly concerned that the lower PPI on this display would be noticeable. That was totally unfounded. I have other monitors at 108 ppi, which is a very noticeable drop from the 217 ppi of the iMac. This monitor comes in at 139 ppi and I really cannot tell the difference vs the iMac. Obviously there actually is a difference there, but for my eyes they both look the same in terms of detail reproduction etc. I found an online Retina PPI calculator which tells me that this 5K2K monitor would become "Retina" at a viewing distance of 25 inches. i.e. At or beyond 25" you should not be able to distinguish any individual pixels and there would be no real visual acuity gain from adding resolution. As it happens I'm at pretty much spot on 25 inches viewing distance and it really does look perfect.So, not a cheap monitor by any means but a fantastic result and it is doing exactly what I hoped it would. In my case it has been a very worthwhile investment.
I use this monitor at my job doing data science programming. The massive real estate is fantastic and allows for at least three 120+ col. wide x 120 lines tall emacs windows plus many terminals without overlap. The screen response is great and colors are also great in sRGB mode. The only complaint I have is that it needs a 2300R curve rather than 2500R. The flatness of the monitor means that I find myself leaning to read text on the edges of the screen and it's a bit frustrating because otherwise the monitor is fantastic. I have an LG 38 ultrawide at home and the 2300R curve is far more comfortable. I know this difference is picky, but it would make a very good monitor a great monitor.Yeah, the resolution is not 'retina' but for that to happen on a monitor this ...

None of us could drive it reliably nor afford it.
Had a Dell 38 inch 4k curved monitor (3818DW) with many of the same features. This one continues a great experience with Dell monitors with even higher resolution. My 38 inch monitor's KVM was used with a thunderbolt-based Dell precision laptop and a Dell XPS desktop with an RTX 3080 card...same here. I appreciate the additional wattage from this monitor to charge my laptop so I no longer need to plug it in. My 38 inch would temporarily black-out after switching sources and then losing the other video signal minutes later. The 40 inch appears to be better, but oddly I do get a brief backout randomly about once a day. A more pronounced annoyance with this monitor I didn't have before...a connected thunderbolt-based laptop that's off doesn't allow me to turn the ...

I have to disconnect the laptop or turn it on...very odd. Otherwise, I think the experience and quality is great so far.
This is an excellent monitor for the price. It's just the right size for most tasks, and has a ton of very useful features. The overall dimensions work well for side-by-side windows. It's a little too narrow for three across. Side by side is also the best if using the KVM feature. If you do use the KVM I recommend using an additional software KVM like Multiplicity for seamless side-by-side operation. However, most of the time I use Dell Display Manager and hotkey between devices. The nitpicks I have are as follows. First, no HDR support. That would have been nice. The KVM feature doesn't allow you to *pin* the Ethernet cable or any USB ports to a device full time. Example, if I have a laptop and PC, and always want the Laptop to have the Ethernet cable and the USB ... MoreThis is an excellent monitor for the price.

Example, if I have a laptop and PC, and always want the Laptop to have the Ethernet cable and the USB port attached to a webcam, that isn't possible. Finally, the second USB-C port is not tucked away with the rest of the ports, so when you use it, it becomes impossible to hide that cable away. Not a great layout. Hopefully the next version of this monitor addresses some of these asks.
This screen replaced a 36” LG ultrawide that, despite having good reviews, drove me crazy and had terrible washout.This monitor is basically perfect for my purposes. I’d prefer a higher pixel density as I use macOS and it doesn’t match the target density of that OS, but it’s as good as it gets right now with an ultrawide.So far the monitor has no idiosyncrasies that bother me, the image is as uniform as I expect for a monitor in this class, and the colours are quite good right out of the box. No dead pixels, light bleed is minimal.I’m not saying there is nothing I would improve, but for the price I got it for, it was as good as I could have hoped for, I have no complaints, and it destroys the LG that preceded it.Note that I’m a software engineer.

I use a different screen for colour proofing. I happily use this screen for gaming, although if that is your primary concern there may be better options. For coding and business purposes it’s great.
I have been using Dell UltraSharp 32" Ultra 4K monitor with premium colors (UP3216Q) for few years, which I have been quite happy with. What I missed on the 32" was more space to see more, especially when working with videos in Adobe Premiere and After Effects, and also when programming in Visual Studio Code, where I often have several windows open at the same time. The width of this Dell UltraSharp 40 Curved WUHD Monitor is perfect. I am even able to place both my older 32" screen side-by-side with this 40" screen (using monitor arms instead of monitor stands) and couldn't be happier.From time to time, I use Spyder 5 Pro to color correct my 32" 4k Dell monitor.

For me, the 40" Dell UltraSharp Curved monitor seems to have better true colors out of the box with no color corrections than my 32" screen. The black level is far better. The crispiness and contrast is much better (remember to adjust ClearType for better looking fonts in Windows 10). I am actually considering replacing my 32" with another Dell UltraSharp 40 Curved monitor and have two of them side by side, but the width may be too much for the neck to deal with. If I could come with a request, please make a 60" version of this monitor.The monitor is slightly curved, not much, which works very well with the software I am using, like Photoshop. A deeper curved monitor is more designated for gamers and I would avoid using such screen for Photoshop or other software where you need to see straight lines. For me, Dell found a perfect depth on the curve for this monitor.I am waiting for a new computer to arrive. Since this 40" curved monitor has the option to show windows of two PCs at the same time, I will try it out and connect both my older Dell Alienware PC and my new one. Having a monitor of this size with screen sharing between computers can save a person for a lot of time when installing and configuring a new computer, by seeing both on a screen. Make sure to get a keyboard and mouse that easily can switch between computers/laptops with a push on a button, like e.g. Logitech MX Keys and Logitech MX Master 3 mouse.I had one problem when connecting the monitor to my PC using DP (DisplayPort). The screen would not turn on. I installed everything of drivers etc. but the screen remained black. Since I first could not find any power button on the monitor, I thought it did not have any. After some Google search, I finally found the power button oddly hidden behind the bottom-right side of the screen and heaven appeared.The screen has some inbuilt speakers. They work okay. There is no bass and you cannot expect to play loud music. I have no problems using the inbuilt speakers for Zoom meetings, etc., but would definitely get some external speakers if playing music.
