Our Verdict
Dell U2715H
Dell U2717D
The Dell U2715H is better than the Dell U2717D. The U2715 is brighter and has wider viewing angles and slightly better black uniformity, making it a more versatile monitor than the U2717D. The U2715H also has much better input lag, making it a better choice for gaming. The U2715 has an additional HDMI input but lacks the side USB inputs found on the Dell U2717D.
