Why would you do that? Run it in native resolution and all recent OS-s will scale that properly! For example Windows and Linux scale my 5K Dell monitor perfectly by increasing fonts, UI, etc. at 200%.
It is not a KVM and not daisy chained it is solely for DisplayPort and Power and the USB-A ports on the monitor you will most likely get 5Gbps each. If you wan't a proper Thunderbolt 3 monitor LG seems to be the only option you have and if you want a monitor with proper KVM (even a built in Gigabit Ethernet jack) go Philips. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07Y5ZZW3Y/
Most designers, especially UI & graphic designers, use Apple devices & high-end laptops that use Thunderbolt 3 for a variety of obvious reasons not tied to KVM
What is "new" about them? No retina resolutions, no high brightness values (so no hdr), no high refresh rates. Price tags are also not so cheap. So it looks like the only "new" is usb-c connectivity.
This. I've got a 4-year-old version of the 25" (the Dell UP2516D), which can be had for $300 from Dell right now. It's got the same resolution, slightly slower GtG and somewhat lower peak brightness (which actually doesn't matter that much - since if you're really doing color-critical work, you won't be doing it in a super-bright room), but actually covers MORE of the color spectrum - 100% sRGB, 99% Adobe RGB, and 98% DCI-P3.
In other words, they're throwing in USB-C with power delivery and charging $180 for it.
For designers but doesn't have Dolby Vision, HLG, HDR10 or HDR1000 at least? What designers or creatives was part of their product research stage? That's essential features; I personally expect that in 2020.
As a brief owner of two U2720Q monitors with the intent to daisy-chain them, it bears retraction and correction that the U2720Q does not support daisy-chaining, making these monitors extremely overpriced for what you actually get out of the box.

When will we see a 3000x2000 resolution screen?Dell, give us 3000x2000 in 34" screen please!

I agree. You get 3840 × 2160 then have to run it lower res as all the fonts are two small so whats the point. We need 16/10 or 3/2 monitors.julandorid - Tuesday, May 26, 2020 - link

No clear specification that it's Thunderbolt 3 or USB 4(TB3+faster USB)? Dell, it's 2020!quiksilvr - Thursday, January 2, 2020 - link

I don't know any designer trying to find a 25" monitor with 16 million colors.Alistair - Thursday, January 2, 2020 - link
should add 120hz support to the 25 inch modelPVG - Thursday, January 2, 2020 - link
Is it a U2520Q (UHD) or a U2520D (QHD)?What's correct, the article body or the specs table?
25'' UHD would be nice.

Wow that peak power usage is ~10x typical.Peak 200 W
Does it just periodically short itself out or something ?
iLLz - Friday, January 3, 2020 - link
Maybe the 90W power delivery has something to do with it?RSAUser - Friday, January 3, 2020 - link
110W is still insane, especially considering the normal 350 nits.MobiusPizza - Monday, January 6, 2020 - link
Did you not read the article that the monitor can supply 90W of power through its type-C USB to power laptop?xmRipper - Friday, January 3, 2020 - link

Plus 95% DCI-P3 isn't exactly great, and those of us who still do stuff that gets printed care about Adobe RGB, too.sing_electric - Friday, January 3, 2020 - link
It's 2020 - when will anyone release a monitor that actually covers the Rec. 2020 color space?smpfly - Monday, May 25, 2020 - link
