Customer Ratings & Reviews

I purchased this monitor after reading all of the great reviews but unfortunately my first purchase came out to be defective. There was a green line in the center when I turned on the monitor. I exchanged it with another one. I opened the package and set it up with my fingers crossed, but this time my purchase didn’t disappointment me. Monitor is actually very easy to set up and have an awesome sleek style. The best thing is that the cords are coming out from the back not from below. Colors are beautiful and have different settings for example brightness, contrast etc. The screen tilts but doesn’t go up and down, since height is perfect for my eye level so I don’t find any issue here. Overall I’m more than pleased with this purchase and I highly recommend this product.

Pros Bright and Crisp Attractive design front and back with almost no bezels. Sleek Stand Good color accuracy for the price Light and thin. Doesn’t take up much space on a desk Affordable for a good IPS panel Cons No height adjustability Stand doesn’t rotate Has a lot of glare (See Photo) Only has HDMI and VGA. No DVI or DisplayPort Thin stand means allows monitor to wobble easily from vibration Proprietary power adapter Proprietary means no desk stands or wall mounts For the many years, I have been changing computers and upgrading while sticking with my tried and true old 17” square LCD. It did the job but more and more seeing newer, more sleek monitors that had larger screens in smaller cases made me want more. My old monitor was dim and just made work hard on the eyes. I saw this HP monitor and my first thought was honestly, “HP makes monitors?” I was curious because the monitor looked very sleek so I gave it a shot. It isn’t feature laden with a fancy stand, lots of ports, and spot on color accuracy. Instead of using a bright low glare screen, they use a cheaper bright screen that has high glare. All things considered, what they offer is a just enough ports to get the job done, a tilt stand, color accuracy for all but the most demanding users, speed for even experienced gamers, enough brightness for most conditions, and an IPS panel all for a price you typically pay for poor monitors in this size. I am a person who typically tries to save money but always gets disappointed by some glaring flaw of more affordable products. This is probably the first time in a long time I have found myself content with a more budget device. Of course, I would like a higher end monitor but unlike other times, I feel content with a “lower end” unit. Surprisingly, for a monitor in this class it includes color calibration profiles out of the box. I adjusted the monitor myself as I felt the default monitor settings left things a bit too washed out but overall I feel HP hit just the right checkboxes to make this a great value. As you can see from my pros and cons this is not a perfect monitor but knowing how much more monitors can cost at this size, the cons are very easy to overlook. Unless there is some big feature listed in the cons you just must have, for most people this monitor will make you very happy you spent the money.

I bought this monitor when it was on sale for $100. It was completely worth the price and especially the drive from where I live. You can change the graphics depending on what you're using the monitor for and it's like a centimeter thin, it's amazing! 5 stars from me

Very high quality hp monitor I ordered and picked up next day, amazing hd pixels and perfect 23" size for a desktop computer, would highly recommend!

Added a second screen to my home office so I didn't need to work off my laptop screen. Used one HDMI output and one VGA output and they fit together perfectly.

The size fits computer cabinet and clarity make great combination. It operates superbly.

This monitor is a great addition to my PC. It only displays in 1080, so it is not a 4K monitor, but the visual fidelity is astounding. I enjoy watching movies from Netflix, Hulu, and Amazon Prime video services in 1080P. I also like that the screen size is not too obtrusive around my desk area, which is limited. When opening games, I have a beautiful image through and through. I even had a clear image when streaming games from my Xbox One, but that may be more related to my internet speed. Assembling the monitor was a breeze. No tools were required to connect the stand to the monitor, and I had it up and working in less than 5 minutes. Another thing that I enjoy about the monitor is that it doesn't hurt my eyes in low lighting. When I turn off my computer, the monitor goes automatically into standby mode which is important because I have it in my bedroom. It does have an HDMI port, which is what most modern computers come with as a standard connection now-a-days, so that was helpful. I really enjoy using this monitor.

I am reviewing this monitor as a Best Buy TechNet member. I have a lot of monitors, this is the best 1080p I have seen. The colors are vibrant, the display is bright and non reflective. Video looks awesome. I do a fair amount of photo editing and the color reproduction is spot on. The high contrast ratio (10,000,000:1) makes everything pop. The monitor has a 7ms response time and max resolution of 1980x 1024. Setup with windows 10 is automatic, I used the included HDMI cable, the monitor also has a VGA input. Manual adjustments can be made with the buttons on the right underside of the bottom bezel. This monitor looks fantastic in silver, it's thin profile gives it an ultramodern sleek look. The monitor would be at home with a PC or a MAC. This monitor is great for all computing and all but very high resolution gaming. If you are a gamer and want to do 4K gaming look else ware, for everyone else I highly recommend this monitor.

I bought this monitor when I purchased a mini Mac. I love the lightweight design and it has both the vga and hdmi ports. The picture quality is top notch. Overall a great product and with an even better value

The HP 23es monitor is an affordable and clear display. I knew it was thin but when I first saw it after taking it out of the box I was still surprised at just how thin and light it is. At this size and price point it isn't unexpected or even a negative, but it's worth mentioning that this is not a 4K display, it's "just" regular HD @ 1920x1080. In practical use though I found 1920x1080 to be very usable. And even though it's "only" 23 inches, for regular-range computing I found that large enough, and was often large enough to keep two fully-functional application windows open side-by-side. It also only has two inputs -- 1 venerable VGA and 1 HDMI. I do a lot of work doing tech support, and restoring old-ish computers for non-profit organizations, and having the VGA input is nice considering how long VGA was the standard video connector. Many may not use it anymore, but I for one am glad to have it as an option. I marked down one star because mine had a slight flicker in the top-right corner. I don't know if that's normal for the model but I can only review what I received. Most of the time I couldn't even see it -- it only became evident when I was displaying something dark in that corner, and then there was a minor but noticeable persistent flicker in just that top-right corner. For watching movies while on my PC it was large enough to be immersive without having to sit too far back. Finally, I'm not sure how useful it is, but I found it interesting that when you bring up the information screen with the on-monitor buttons (below the bottom-right edge) there is an "hour" count that lets you know how many hours the display has been on.

Nice monitor for the money! Bought it on sale. The benefits of a larger screen are obvious, plus it's light weight and was easy to connect.

The picture is excellent, nice size, vivid colors,pleasing to look at. Very attractive monitor.

After being used to a laptop, this monitor seems huge to me. It's very sleek a clean-looking. The height is not adjustable, which would be nice, but it is a good value for the price.

This is a fantastic monitor. It requires no tools to put together which is a nice feature and the monitor is incredibly thin (see picture). It has a VGA port just in case, and HDMI. It only has one HDMI, but this is strictly a business or work monitor so I don't see the need for multiple HDMI inputs (IMHO). To that end, it's simple to use, there's only three ports: power, VGA and HDMI and it's bright and vivid. I've had great experiences with HP monitors and I recommend them.

I bought it when it just poped up with only one review, so it was somewhat risky. It was on sale also. When it arrived, it is so light, and thin and with very good quality built. It is frameless, looks just like black glass that turns into image. Image quality is great, im not picky though. The base, even though looking fragile, in fact is all metal and very sturdy. Wish it had speakers, however with such thin design it would be impossible to have them built in.

I love HP products, my last 5 computers have been from them. This screen however seems to randomly blink from time to time. Not sure whats up as I have changed the refresh rate and other settings a few times trying to trouble shoot it. Other than that issue I think this monitor is awesome! Its like, sleek and modern design is very eye appealing and it have a good display quality.

We needed to find a good monitor to add to a multiple screen display setup. This one was on sale, just the right size and at a great price. The sale price allowed us to upgrade from the lesser quality products we were considering. This monitor performs extremely well, is viewable from any angle and has excellent resolution on text at any font size. Color and graphics perform well also. It's perfect for all productivity applications. As a plus, video resolution is great with no distortion.

I say that because the last monitor I had lasted for about 6 years. Then a certain group of younglings got a hold of it and it suddenly became problematic. Oh well, I said, they just did me a favor cause I wanted a new monitor anyway but couldn't do it until this one conked out. Thanks boys. I hope this new one doesn't meet the same fate as the last one. It shows a very good picture. Colors are vivid and everything is wide and big. I like the fact that it has HDMI output as well. I'd buy another.

Bought this one mainly to compliment another similar sized HP monitor. Quality is excellent, easy to set up, and the stand makes it easy to ensure the two monitors are at the same level.

I purchased this as a stand-alone monitor for my new Mac Mini. The HDMI port (and included cable) made connection easy. Aesthetically, it is a perfect match for the Mac Mini: Its silver and black trim match the Mac... The base of the aluminum stand is almost exactly the same dimensions as the Mini, and the stand's "cutout" lets the Apple logo show through. Even the white power LED matches the Mini's white LED! The height is not adjustable, but that's unfortunately the norm. Ergonomically, the top of the monitor is at eye-level when sitting on top of the Mini, so the non-adjustable height is not a problem.
