I'm no monitor expert but I wanted an IPS screen. I hate having the color and brightness shift when I move my head. This monitor seems a lot better than my TN laptop monitor. HD videos (EyeTV on a Mac) look fine when they are HD native. But you can really tell if something was not shot in HD and is being rebroadcast as HD. Lots of artifacts (the source's fault; a testament to how good this monitor is in showing detail). Motion is not quite as fluid as on my CRT HDTV of course. IPS monitors have slower pixel response than TN. But at 5ms (or was it 7ms?), this one is spec'ed better than most IPS monitors. I bought this monitor mainly for being able to read two pages of a doc at once. So video performance was secondary. And it is probably as good as an LCD monitor would get short of a dedicated LCD TV. My main concern on such a large screen were dead or stuck pixels (high probability for some). I ran a standard online test in my web browser. I found one dead green pixel. I can live with that. It is near the center. Despite that, you wouldn't find it unless you were looking for it. I have no idea whether HP will honor its 3 year warranty if an issue comes up. The seller would not answer my inquiry whether it was an authorized HP dealer for warranty purposes. I am thinking of buying a Squaretrade warranty. But maybe not, as prices on these things tend to come down rapidly, making a warranty less worthwhile.Read full review
Great 24" display with super 1980x1200 resolution. I use the monitor to display complex spreadsheet data and appreciate the additional displayable content this resolution provides. Included speakers required a powered USB port to power the speakers (I had one, so no problem). There is a very slight background noise from the speakers, but not really a problem for me. Screen clarity is great, contrast is very good and brightness is highly satisfactory. Only possible negative is that this display is a little heavy, but once in place, who cares...
Verified purchase: Yes | Condition: Refurbished
I bought this to replace an old faulty unit. This worked out well as the purchased unit had no stand. I've been using it for a while now and it always works flawlessly.

Worked fine out of the box. Stand is strong and well built with unlimited amount of motion. Its lcd is bright, but thats great. You can always lower it. Contrast is good. No dead pixel and no backlight bleeding. Sharp text and colors with little color shifting. The antiglare screen is great. Response time is the best compared to others IPS monitor. No more reflections, no more looking at myself and getting distracted by people walking behind me. I worked with a 27" ACD and the distraction was too much thanks to its glossy screen. I am glad I made the switch even that this is a smaller LCD. The Power led on/off light can be turn off. Its 16:10 aspect ratio is perfect. Now I hate those 16:9 tvs, lol. I love this monitor. This is the best LCD I had in long time.
What a nice monitor! It was very easy to calibrate. No dead pixels. Beautiful colors, stunning pictures, and crisp text. What more could you ask for? I found the picture to be slightly better on the Display Port than on the DVI-D Port. I'm running this monitor on a Macintosh Pro with an ATI Radeon 4870 Video Card. I am using a very inexpensive MonoPrice Displayport to mini displayport cable. This cable works like a charm with the monitor and Video Card.
