Overview
The Dell U3225QE is a 31.5-inch IPS monitor with 3840 × 2160 resolution and colour coverage that suits creative work. It offers 140 ppi pixel density, 450 nits typical brightness (600 nits peak), 3000:1 static contrast and 100% sRGB and 99% DCI-P3 coverage. The panel refreshes at 48–120 Hz and quotes 5 ms response. Inputs include 1× HDMI 2.1, 1× DisplayPort 1.4, Thunderbolt 4, 5× USB-A and 2.5 Gb Ethernet. The stand offers 150 mm of height adjustment, swivel and pivot. There are no speakers, and it weighs 9.34 kg with the stand. It suits colour-sensitive work such as photo and video editing. The main trade-off: heavy at 9.34 kg, so it needs a sturdy desk or arm.
