Dell U4919DW Monitor Unboxing Setup & Configuration 

Watching this while putting mine together and I can't tell you how much I'm appreciating how thorough you're being, especially doing this solo.

Great review! You’re the only review that I’ve seen that got into the screen splitting! That makes me want this beast even more!! Thank you!

i just ordered this and to have this full guide to watch is a lifesaver since i'm pretty clueless around tech - thankyou!!!

I just received mine two weeks ago and am loving it! Get this beast unless you're a serious gamer needing a higher refresh rate. I use it with 2 computers and had to order a 2nd upstream cable to use the awesome KVM function. Until that arrives, I must use 2 keyboards and 2 mice which is awkward but only a temporary issue. I did find the lifting diagram confusing and lifted it out of the shipping box by the cardboard instead of the styrofoam. Fortunately, that worked OK. Thanks for showing us those 2 extra USB ports on the bottom left which I had overlooked.

Definitely going to get my hands on a super ultra wide monitor in the future, the potential is limitless.

Thank you!!

Where did u find the screw? I am not finding it

Do you have any additional info on using two computers with the screen (PC & Apple). I am having a hard time finding step by step directions on this?

Can this be wall mounted? The slight wobble bothers me.

I ordered this yesterday. I wanted to see how big the box was when UPS delivers this monster.

Great video - thanks. Dell present on the box as if this monitor had an aggressive curve but in fact it's a mere 3800R and it's the main reason why am not switching my 3 Dell 2515H to two of these 49" (thinking about switching because am tired of constant DisplayLink issues - this time no screen rotation in drivers released in Aug for M1 MacBooks so two vertical became pretty useless and no more desk space for a horizontal setup atm!). Such low curvature might be ok for 38-42 inch but 49 inch I simply would have to shift my body too much for such a wide screen and am not keen on looking at content at high angles even though it's got 178 degrees vision. Another thing (maybe it's a technical limitation) don't understand is since its designed primarily for office productivity at standard refresh rate why aspect ratio 32:9 and not 32:10? Also, probably not that significant for many, bear in mind its 1214mm total width - many office desks are 1200mm so the screen would either sick out a bit or overlap someone else's identical monitor (Samsung made 48.8" within 1200mm width which is very thoughtful) . I'll probably wait for another version of this monitor or buy an alternative with 1800R curvature rate although will miss the Dell's features, image sharpness and build quality (have been using them for IT work for the past 15 years and never had any issues so very reluctant to switch brand to alternatives which fails me a couple of times).

Pd the monitor does swivel, if you look on the bottom of the stand you will see a lazy Susan type setup on the base.

Would like to get this for my wfm setup. Via work i have a dell optiplex 7010.. would that be enough to run this in native resolution?

It turns from the base. You have to place it on a table, under the base you would see a circular rubber thing, which grips onto the table.

How did you connect from that old optiplex? Hdmi, displayport, thunderbolt to dp,...?

A very useful video, thank you. If possible could you demo how to set this up with a laptop connected in addition to a PC? I have my PC working fine and connecte3d it with DP, HDMI & USB3 upstream and put my keyboard/mouse USB wireless device into the monitor. everything works fine. I have now connected my laptop via the second USB upstream and an HDMI to HDMI lead. With the menu, I manage to view both screens (split on my monitor) and swap them successfully, however..... I can only operate the laptop with the keyboard/mouse???? which is the one I use for the PC. I can only use the laptop. the screen image for the PC is static and can't operate until I disconnect the laptop; then it resumes as before. P.S. I don't have anything USB C. Can you help as I imaging many other users have some connection issues and no one else is covering it. many thanks. Alan

Need support for using this monitor: When i play Resident Evil 4 (Remastered version UHD-4K) PC game at FULL SCREEN, it cut 20% from top and 20% bottom of the game actual image/picture at 5120x1440 pixel 32:9 aspect ratio. If i want to see full image of game, i must change video settings from the game to 2560x1440 pixel and 16:9 aspect ratio. What is the problem? Do i must change settings of monitor to see FULL image on screen for Resident Evil 4 PC game. At this moment i have LG 32" nano IPS 4K monitor and i see the game FULL SCREEN at 3840x2106 pixel 16:9 aspect ratio. Please help me to solve this issue.

how do you adjust the height?

I am planning to use this for competitive gaming is this safe?

Does this have built in speakers?

What will happen if i try to drive this screen with my Macbook pro 13" 2015 model? Its listed to only handle 3840x2160 on two separate screens.

Hi there, I have a laptop with a max resolution of 2880 x 1800. Will this 49" monitor work with my laptop? I have a USB-C port on my laptop. Please let me know thanks!

Wonder why it doesn't swivel - its possible that swiveling would compromise the sturdy base??

What happens if you disconnect your computer from the monitor? I know you have a desktop but for laptop users, what would happen with all the setup of the placement/resized windows if one were to remove their laptop?

WOW

an arm can be mounted behind the monitor so that the monitor base is not visible?

did you try to clip a logitech brio (webcam) on it?

In this day and age no HDR support is a sin. Especially for the price that Dell wants for this model. That’s too bad as the monitor looks really nice. If you want swivel just buy a lazy susan stand. Problem solved. Thanks for the video.

Hmm I just got this same monitor and it DOES have a swivel base. Sort of like a lazy-Susan set up. May want to double check yours!

The noise ur mouse made almost made me stop watching.

@11:23 you said it only refreshes at 60 frames per MINUTE. You paid too much for it, if it takes one second to refresh. I think you will find it should be 60 frames per SECOND. Which some people loosely equate to 60 Hz 😉
