Color problems with P2715Q
Hello,
I have purchased two P2715Q monitors. One is a revision A03 and the other is an A04. Ironically, the one that was manufactured more recently is the older revision.
Anyways, the issue I am having is with the color calibration. Both monitors out-of-the-box have a different hue when put together side-by-side. I factory reset both monitors and reset the color settings on both to default and the colors are still different between the two. One of the monitors came with a color certification sheet, the other did not.
The newer monitor (with the older A03 revision) has more of a warm hue when looking at whites. The older monitor (with the newer A04 revision) has more of a cooler tone with the whites and looks more accurate.
If the marketing on this monitor claims each monitor is factory tuned at 99% sRGB with a color calibration factory report certifying that each monitor has a deltaE < 3. That means you get precise color coverage right out of the box... then why am I seeing such a variation between the two?

ChristopherDButler,
All Dell monitors are calibrated at the factory to manufacturer specifications. But, no two panels are identical, so their unique calibrations will differ from each other. You will need to purchase some calibration colorimetry hardware and software and calibrate them through the colorimetry and software to get the closest match possible.
