Dell believes that slightly higher curvature will further improve professional productivity. All the other specifications are generally similar: an IPS panel with 3440×1440 resolution, 1000:1 contrast ratio, 300 nits brightness, 178°/178° viewing angles, 5 ms response time in fast mode and a 60 Hz refresh rate. The Dell UltraSharp U3417W has higher curvature than its predecessor: 1900R vs 3800R. Back in April, 2015, the company released its first U3415W curved display and this month it unveiled a newer model, the U3417W. As a result, Dell offers curved monitors specifically tailored for professionals. Meanwhile, Dell, quotes IDC’s findings that professionals from many industries (including those, who do finance, accounting and creative work) can benefit both from ultra-wide 21:9 aspect ratio as well as curvature. Nowadays, the majority of display makers position their curved monitors primarily for gamers and multimedia enthusiasts, thus, trying to incorporate very high refresh rates along with dynamic refresh rate technologies like AMD’s FreeSync or NVIDIA’s G-Sync. The monitor is aimed particularly at users who do heavy multitasking but do not want to install two monitors on their desks. The new UltraSharp U3417W display has the same WHQD resolution as the U3415W introduced a year ago, but increased curvature and a new chassis design. Dell has unveiled its new top-of-the-range 34” curved monitor for consumers.
