Dell UltraSharp U2415
Score: 81/100
Asus ZenScreen USB-C Black
Score: 71/100Rankings
The Dell UltraSharp U2415 is a 24.1-inch AH-IPS monitor offering 99% sRGB coverage and a 16:10 aspect ratio, ideal for productivity and multi-monitor setups. Its lack of modern connectivity, limited color gamut beyond sRGB and 60 Hz refresh are notable trade-offs. Best suited for office professionals, programmers and users who value vertical screen real-estate and ergonomic flexibility.
The ASUS ZenScreen MB16AC is a 15.6-inch portable Full HD IPS monitor praised for its feather-light weight and single-cable USB-C operation. Its limited brightness, lack of speakers, and absence of ergonomic adjustments restrict its use to indoor, secondary-display scenarios. Best suited for travelers and remote workers needing a compact secondary screen.
