Dell Pro E2726DS vs ThinkVision E27Q-40
Need a monitor for productivity (research, reading papers, programming) and occasional Netflix/movies.
I wanted to get a >=30" IPS (QHD or 4K) around AUD 200. I started with the marketplace, but couldn't find any decent options (either VA panels or not in good condition).
Sacrificing the size for now, I've narrowed it down to:
- Dell Pro E2726DS - AUD 226.20 (with Dell student discount)
- Lenovo ThinkVision E27Q-40 - AUD 238.98 (at Lenovo Education Store)
Both are 27" QHD IPS and height-adjustable. Both seem good for text sharpness (as I'll be reading most of the time).
I almost bought the Dell, but then found the ThinkVision at a similar price. Compared them here. They're nearly identical, though the ThinkVision seems to have slightly better brightness and colour specs.
Does anyone have experience with either monitor? Is the ThinkVision worth the extra ~$13, or should I just get the Dell?
Also, are there any >=30" IPS (QHD or 4K) that you'd recommend? I can stretch my budget a bit if it's really a good deal.
