Dell 3007WFP vs. Apple Cinema Display Comparison
As a follow-up to their earlier review of the Dell 3007WFP 30″ LCD monitor, CNET decided to publish a comparison between the Dell 3007WFP and a comparable competitor, the Apple Cinema Display.
From the review, we can see that the Dell fought long and hard - not only winning two out of five review rounds, but also being a few hundred dollars cheaper than the Apple. But in the end, the 30″ Apple Cinema Display won by the slimmest of margins.
CNET concludes that, “Taking three out of five rounds, Apple’s 30-inch Cinema HD Display wins by an ever-so-slight margin.
Apple trumped the Dell in our DVD-playback test, displaying less digital noise and more-realistic skin tones, and it won the more technical rounds, with more-vivid colors and better grayscale differentiation. This is the monitor of choice, especially if you own an Apple computer, since the Apple OS provides additional configuration options.
That said, if adjustability is important to you, the Dell UltraSharp 3007WFP has a lot more going for it; in fact, Apple doesn’t really compete in this category. Dell also delivers a better variety of input options and better text performance for everyday tasks. Finally, at $300 less than the Apple, the UltraSharp 3007WFP may be the better deal, dollar for dollar.
But if you want the best 30-inch display that money can buy, Apple’s Cinema HD Display is it.”
