Is a calibrated U2412M color accurate ?
I am a hobbyist and I rarely print but I only shoot in RAW and I think it is time to stop editing on a TN monitor with inaccurate colors.
I am torn between the U2412M and the U2410. I am not sure if I need the wide gamut 2410.

Stick with the U2412M. Wide gamut is overkill in my opinion. Very happy with mine... the difference between IPS and TN panels is significant!

I'm very happy with my U2412M. Decided to stay away from a wide gamut monitor right now. Like the 16 x 10 rather than a 16 x 9 ratio.

I got the 2412 as well. it's a good monitor and I am happy with the monitor. it may not be the best out there but I have printed my photos and they look at the same on the screen as in print and that's the most important thing.

Thanks for the replies. I think I'll stay with standard gamut this time.
