Both the G2210 22-inch and G2410 24-inch models are EPEAT Gold and ENERGY STAR compliant and are distinguished by a design approach that combines energy efficiency, LED technology, recycled materials and other environmentally preferable components.

Dell also claims the G2210 and G2410 units consume less than half the power of comparable monitors and come with a typical dynamic contrast ratio of up to 1,000,000:1

Specifications include:

• Viewable image size: 22-inch diagonal (G2210) / 24-inch diagonal (G2410).
• Typical contrast ratio: 1,000:1 (standard) 1,000,000:1 (dynamic).
• Maximum resolution: 1680 x 1050 (G2210) / 1920 x 1080 full HD (G2410).
• Typical power consumption: 18W (G2210) / 20W (G2410).
• Brightness: 250 cd/m2.
• Response time: 5ms black-to-white.
• Available connectors: VGA (analog), DVI-D (digital) with HDCP.

Energy efficiency specifications include:

• Typical average power consumption is less than half that of comparable flat panel monitors.
• Less than 0.15W of power consumption when in sleep mode – no power is drawn from the host computer.
• Built-in ambient light sensor responds to surrounding brightness, automatically adjusting levels when enabled.
• Dynamic dimming automatically decreases the onscreen brightness when the image consists primarily of white and/or bright areas when enabled.
• “PowerNap” screensaver application dims the monitor to minimum brightness or “sleep” mode, based on user preference.

RRP
G2210 from $459
G2410 from $549
