Our Verdict

Dell U2515H

Dell U2415

The Dell U2415 is marginally better than the Dell U2515H. The Dell U2415 has better vertical viewing angles can display more uniform blacks, which is great for dark scenes. The Dell U2515H, on the other hand, has a larger screen with a higher resolution that can fit more of your work.
