I had this model and it would've been great if not for a screen flicker on the left side. I tried everything changing all the settings updating drivers and firmware and couldn't get it fixed. I finally found in reviews it is a common problem with this model. Maybe it's only certain panels and you will get lucky but it was unfortunate and I returned it.
This sends like a really good price for a curved Dell with power delivery.
The curve doesn't affect/change anything for people who viewing your screen on Zoom/Teams. The main concern is going to be the resolution - the image will be small for viewers who don't have a similar resolution on their monitor . For myself, I just change the resolution on my side when I need to screen share. Something like 1920x1080 usually works for most people

Absolutely. I've got an older Dell U3818DW and love it for its USB-C 100W PD and thunderbolt connectivity that works flawlessly with multiple work laptops I've had (XPS15/thinkpad) as well as a 14" M1 Pro macbook.. super handy and very easy to KVM switch between a desktop PC and laptop (or other computer)
My biggest concern with curved monitor is screen sharing on Zoom/Teams - any suggestions on how to make it easier for others to see the screen?

i think people just share the application, but at my org, that would be suspicious and frowned upon. managers always share their whole screen, and we don't only work in one application. so it would be very frustrating to constantly adjust the screen sharing to say - screen share excel, now powerpoint, now tableau, now chrome, etc.
for that reason, i've stuck to 2 separate monitors.

Thanks - didn't mean to specifically say curved monitor, meant widescreen. But yes this makes sense thanks!
