I know right, it's so annoying! But what I've figured out is that if you lightly slide your finger from left to right on the power button, it works like 99% of the time, so I hope that helps.
I've got same issue. I bought several days ago UP2716D (firmware M3T103) and the power button basicly don't respond at all (there was 1 time when I managed to turn it on after many many many many attempts and thats it). What should I do? Ask my seller for refund? I'm a disappointed.
... today I replug monitor and I noticed that when I put my fingers on back of a monitor and with thumb on a power button sometime helps ... so now 5 to 20 times of pressing powers on/off ... maybe it's a kind of a placebo effect
No problem man, I'm glad it worked for you as well. I really don't know, but it's definitely a big mistake from Dell, hope they fix that in the future.
