Well, there are really on 2 options for a 24"Dell UltraaSharp currently:
1. Dell UltraSharp 24 monitor - U2422H - 1920 x 1200 resolution, around 270 euros
2. Dell UltraSharp 24 USB-C-hubmonitor: U2422HE - 1920 x 1080 resolution, around 330 euros
3. Dell UltraSharp USB-C hubmonitor- U2421E - 1920 x 1200 resolution, around 330 euros
Personally I would go for option 3 if you really want a 24" monitor. It basically is the successor to my current Dell UltraSharp, and should be very good indeed. I did have an Iiyama as well, basically because of my experience with Iiyama CRT-monitors back in the day, but I found they do not last overly long, so I will not get another one anymore if one of my current monitors decides to give up. It lasted about 3 years, while my other monitors are all going strong still for over 4 years now, and the Dell and Samsung for over 5 years. And I use them intensively, about 8 to 12 hours a day.
Having said all this, a 27" monitor is only about 3.5 cm wider than a 24"one, and if you would like better resolution, you would have to go that way.
The 3 cheapest ones are:
1. Dell UltraSharp 27 Monitor | U2722D - 2560 x 1440 resolution (QHD), around 380 euros
2. Dell UltraSharp 27 USB-C-hubmonitor - U2722DE - 2560 x 1440 resolution (QHD), around 440 euros
3. Dell UltraSharp 27 4K USB-C-hub monitor - U2723QE - 3840 x 2160 resolution (4K), around 620 euros
In this case, I would personally go for option 3, but it is right at the top of your budget.
The prices mentioned are what you'd pay over here, in the Netherlands, directly from Dell. You actually may be able to get them slightly cheaper from a computer shop.
HTH, warm regards, Wim
