Customer Ratings & Reviews

This is an all-around great monitor. With a 4k resolution, you get plenty of fidelity in both games and work (or just web browsing), while also getting a ton of screen real estate at just shy of 32.” The OLED panel brings great punchy colors and true blacks, while factory color calibration ensures accuracy. It checks all of my boxes. __OLEDS ARE NOT ALWAYS GOOD, THIS ONE IS__ I have other modern OLED gaming monitors, including super ultra-wides, but higher resolutions seems to be how to make them shine. The reason seems to be that the sub-pixel layout of OLEDs can create a grainy effect at lower resolutions (due to the larger blue diodes), while the non-grid layout has traditionally bested Window’s ability to render text smoothly. I find my 1440p OLEDs looks great for games, but fail me for basic web-browsing for this very reason - text just looked terrible. It’s almost contrarian as this isn’t the case with an LCD panel at the same lower resolutions… Luckily, that’s not the case here - with such a dense resolution, everything looks great. Colors are bright and accurate and you gain the unbeatable black levels of an OLED. __DESIGN__ While a monitor in white isn’t what I normally would gravitate to, it looks great. It feels modern and would pair well with a PS5, aesthetically. The screen feels edgeless, with a bit of a presumed buffer offered to OLEDs to reduce the chance of burn-in. Speaking of preventing burn-in, OMEN claims to have a great cooling solution built-in to help dissipate heat and keep the panel healthy. The base, while visually on the small side, feels hefty enough to hold the monitor up with ease. The arm is solid and heavy as well. The bulk continues with a transformer brick that is comically large, ****way**** bigger than I’ve ever seen before - and heavy. It provides a similarly super-thick power cable to the monitor, connecting with a chunky (likely proprietary) 4 prong connection. In terms of unique features, a magnetic headphones hooks is included and allows you to hang a pair at the left corner of the display. I wasn’t sure what I’d think of it, but it works and looks nice. Plus, when you don’t need it, it’s trivial to take it back off. And since this is a gaming monitor, OMEN included rear backlighting. Accessible from the monitor menu, you can adjust the lights to various patterns and, as I prefer… a nice soft white that helps illuminate why space behind and around the screen. It feels tasteful. Built-in speakers are respectable, but not amazing. They lack a bit of bass, but are otherwise fine. Less fine is that it seems that primarily hardware control over the speakers is buried in the display’s menus. Software buttons seemed unable to adjust the baseline output of these, so navigating the display menu with the little joystick on the back was the only way I got the sound levels up…. Though this may not be necessary all of the time once you’ve found a relative output you like. And finally, a fantastic OLED panel is at the heart of it all. I’ll say it again - it’s hard to beat an OLED for bright, accurate colors and deep true-blacks. With higher refresh rates achievable, games can look buttery smooth. Plus at 4k, you don’t get any of the downsides for productivity or text rendering. Everything I throw at it looks amazing. It’s a trifecta of features that make this great. __REFRESH RATE__ Let’s get this out of the way too… 240hz at 4k is hard to achieve at the time of writing. Even with expensive cables and rigs, you’ll be lucky to push that much data. While this monitor advertises DP 2.1, it doesn’t seem to do so without compression (DSC) - but there are already so many things working against getting to this level of resolution and speed, that I feel that the discussion is moot. The picture on this monitor looks amazing, and these specs allow it to adapt to just about any situation I need. For some, they may feel they need the best, and a theory that avoiding this compression will subsequently avoid the computational decompression and provide a noticeable advantage in competitive FPS’s is a bit silly to me. Most will play at lower resolutions if speed is important, and for my setup, I struggled to get good quality gameplay at 240hz. That’s no doubt the limitations on my hardware and not this monitor. Like I said, this monitor has enough to adapt to your needs, while reliably providing a beautiful solution to each. Playing at slightly lower resolutions when I need a higher refresh rate is an easy trade-off for me, but your needs (and hardware power) may vary. - And if you’ve never heard of this discussion in the gaming community, best to skip over it as nothing important to your needs ;) __OVERALL__ OMEN has a great monitor on their hands - resolution, speed, size, and color fidelity all come together to provide just about everything I’d want from a monitor. Sound is decent, but I’ll stick with my external speakers… and while only the most high-end machines and cables are likely to be capable of getting the maximum out of it, it provides a fantastic image for just about any use, from gaming to productivity.

The OLED experience is something you have to experience yourself! I was used to 27' monitors. The 32 monitor is much better. You get more depth of field while gaming or creating content. The HP Omen Transcend is a Premium monitor that offers some additional add-ons. Such as the Display Port 2.1 which can't be utilized yet but in the future we hope to. It also offers USB-C charging at 140W. So it will charge most devices. You get plenty of additional ports if you need them. The Monitor came with all the cords as well. So HP didn't cheap out here and not send USB-C cords or a Display Port cord. The monitor has a unique connection to the stand. It's your typical stand with adjustment. I always use a monitor arm. Which you can easily accomplish by popping of the plastic attachment. Next, undo 4 screws and you have your VESA mount. The monitor also came well protected. The white backing looks different than most monitors. You have what appears to be vents on the top. You get narrow bezels with a bottom chin with the logo. It's a great-looking monitor. The OLED Glossy Panel is by far the best. The colors just have a little bit more pop. While gaming this thing looks amazing. Playing Helldivers 2 was stunning. The colors and scenery just made the gaming experience exceptional. While 4K gaming is an option you can always bump the settings down and still experience a great gaming session. There is some reflection but it was very minor. It was mainly the RGB lights from my desktop. The deep blacks and darkness were great. You have to see it for yourself. The menu layout is also great. The buttons are not in some weird location. They can easily be used when you need to make adjustments. The toggle button felt good and didn't feel cheap. The ups, downs, lefts, and rights felt normal. The menu settings are also quite neat. You get two different modes. A Professional and Gaming Mode. There is a decent amount of adjustment also. There are also settings for OLED protection. You have Pixel Refresh, Static Screen Protection, and Lower Third Detection. For some reason, they don't save and have to be turned on each time you turn the monitor on. This has to be one of the best monitors out you can get right now. A 4K 240hz monitor is great. The biggest con with this is I wish it got brighter. Yet, the monitor is still exceptional and a 10/10! It is my new main monitor now. I'm very pleased with it.

This OLED monitor does it all! There is no finer 3rd generation QD-OLED panel monitor available today. Spec wise it has EVERYTHING you could want. Even including built-in 4 speaker audio, 140W power delivery, HDR, plenty of ports- USB-C, USB-A, HDMI, Display Port, Headphones, etc. Features built in KVM switching, RGB lighting, quiet positive fan cooling (not just cheaper passive heat sinks), massive Power supply for powering all your connected devices and charging, 240 Hz Refresh rate, slick joystick controller of monitor settings. Note unlike some other QD-OLED Monitors the Omen Transcend 32 connects PERFECTLY to Apple Mac or MacBook PC'S (and of course Windows PC's) without any issues whatsoever (and better performing than any Apple Studio Monitor for way less $). NOTE: ALL OLED monitors have a little minor shadowing displaying lettering because of the way the RGB subpixels are laid out in a triangular pattern on the screen instead of in a straight line like on non OLED LED panels (Google it). So if you see SLIGHT shadowing on lettering THIS IS NORMAL and not a defect. Otherwise enjoy the gorgeous graphics and video, you are going to love it :) !

First, the display is gorgeous. It technically has a glossy finish but it's not super reflective; if you're worried about that, don't be. I would take this over a slightly grainy matte finish in a heartbeat. Colors are rich, HDR works beautifully, 240Hz refresh rate is plenty. The menus for controlling it are well organized, nicely designed, easy to navigate, and intuitive; my only complaint with them is that it's too difficult to *exit* the menus. Other monitors will let you click left on the control stick to eventually exit; here, you'll need to scroll all the way down to the end of the settings window and select "Close." HP created an interesting prosumer/gaming hybrid display: it has gaming modes, and it has different professional color spaces and presets. Even the main OSD lets you switch between Professional and Gaming modes. The built in KVM has three HID ports and one data port (I have it connected to a mouse, keyboard, speakers, and a UPS). The KVM switches between one input connected by DisplayPort or HDMI and USB, and a second pure USB-C input that connects directly to your laptop and is able to power it up to 100W. Now here's what sucks, and it sucks a lot: - The KVM *will not allow you to switch to an inactive port.* If you press the KVM button, it *does nothing.* If you have your desktop hooked up to the USB-A and DisplayPort, and your laptop hooked up to the USB-C, and your desktop goes to sleep, the KVM button *won't work.* Enabling "OMEN Gear Switch" in the Input menu theoretically would fix this, but it doesn't. This is asinine; what good is a KVM switch if it won't actually switch when you tell it to. - Firmware update software is junk. The most recent drop was in February and it stalls out without being able to update the monitor's firmware. I've tried connecting with multiple computers. It loses connection to the monitor; if you look it up, you'll see a lot of other users having this problem. - VRR flicker is irritating but mild. This is endemic to OLED gaming displays. If your game is running at a low framerate (<50 fps) and kind of chugging, flicker on a dark scene will be noticeable. Higher framerates - especially if you use frame generation - will make this go away. Realistically this monitor is probably a 3.5 stars, and it's otherwise an excellent display. But it comes with big caveats: the VRR flicker endemic to OLED displays, broken firmware update functionality, and most aggravatingly, the KVM switch not working while an input is off/asleep. If you can live with those, it's a great choice for people who dabble in both professional work and gaming. It's entirely possible the firmware and KVM issues will be fixed in the future, but there are no guarantees. As an asterisk: if you're using a 50 series GeForce, *there is nothing wrong with your monitor.* Go into the Input menu and set it to DisplayPort 1.4; the 50 series GeForce cards support DisplayPort 2.1 on paper but at the time of this review, it's extremely flaky. DP 1.4 uses Display Stream Compression to hit HDR and 240Hz, and it's visually indistinguishable from an uncompressed DP 2.1 connection. If you want to complain, complain to Nvidia. ;)

A little too late, power brick is too big, terrible joystick for controls, and 200-300 dollars overpriced. Picture quality and response times are great as expected of OLED. Additional features such as KVM, several I/O, and really good speakers make this monitor pretty good choice for everyday use, not just gaming.

Great crisp 4k. Colors are super vibrant. Comes with HP Omen gaming hub software. Other reviews stating that updating the drivers are a pain are correct. Takes a bit of time to set up. Actual panel itself is great. I don't have the strongest gpu but playing older games at 4k 240hz feels like the way it was meant to be played and the oled adds another layer of contrast.

This monitor is on another level. The display , colors, contrast, Everything looks amazing and the availability on ports the instantaneous refresh rate , the glossy display , inky blacks… the speakers are amazing. All im saying is … someone cooked here.

Let me preface this by saying I have tried a vast amount of monitors over the last couple years to include the LG 32GS95UE, Samsung G80SD, LG 39GS95QE etc. and this one stands as the clear winner for me. I believe HP have hit it out of the park with this monitor, it is a stunning display with excellent build quality, 140W power delivery, Displayport 2.0 (40GB not full), better than average OSD, decent speakers (LG 32GS95UE are better) etc. I am floored each day that I have used this since purchase. If I had any complaints with the product it would be the price, while it has stand out features I believe they need match the market which has quite simliar monitors for much cheaper. Secondly, the power supply for this thing is no joke, it is MASSIVE so make sure you have the space to accomodate though I dont' imagine that is really an issue for most. All in this is just one astoundingly good looking monitor with alot of features that help it to stand out to me.

Pros: + Versatile, multiple modern full spec inputs + Shareable between desktop PC and MacBook + Sale pricing overcomes issues + 240Hz is fast enough, Mac Mini M4 base connects at 240Hz, MacBook Pro M4Max tops off at 165Hz is also fast enough + Mac Software HP Display Center has promise, I hope they keep updating it. It's a January 2025 first release. + On paper, this should be able to keep up with charging future high end laptops, but USB-C charging is a mess so most times you'll see 100Watt charging (which is still top of the line), technically supports 140Watt and possibly more theoretically. Cons: - Awkward, proprietary power brick is funny and I'm certain it'll be hard to live with over the years. MSI 90watt charging USB-C model users integrated power supply and standard cable. MSI gamer styling is not good but its subtle and easy to ignore, I think MSI has a winner. - Sale pricing absolutely a must, and it would be better if it was priced right to begin with. - Could be brighter in daylight but probably healthy for eyes that it isn't. My results: Base Model Mac Mini M4 ($500) powered this at 240Hz and it looks great. Consider this monitor and that tiny Mac Mini M4 over an iMac. M4Pro and M4Max MacBook Pro's cap out at 165Hz and I don't know why that is. Could be corrected later. 16" M4Pro MacBook charges at 140Watts over USB-C which is refreshing. 14" M4Max MacBook Pro charges at 100Watt over USB-C. Dell XPS 15 Charges at 100Watt or 90 Watt (unclear) but NOT at 130Watt. It's the 12th Gen i7 XPS 15 and it needs a special Dell charger to go 130Watt which it needs for full performance. 165Hz 4K. Desktop 4070 Ti 240Hz no issues

The Omen proved to be an awesome companion for my Mac Mini. I’m using a USB-C connection. The resolution is great. The speakers sound good. Nothing but good things to say.

I was shopping for a new monitor primarily for gaming. At first I was set on a dual mode, because I wasn't sure if my 4080 Super could handle 4k on my fps games. Wow, I was wrong about that and listened to way too many online reviewers saying 2k was best for frames. I looked at the asus, msi, lg, and samsung 4k equivalents to this. Honestly this omen wasn't even on my radar until it caught my eye in store. I couldn't stop thinking about it since it was way more appealing in person despite having very little press or glowing reviews. This was by far the best looking screen and then the lg. My biggest suggestion on something this expensive is to go in store and forget the hype reviews. I would've had buyer's remorse getting anything else. The KVM switch concept is new to me too, but dang it's useful. Now, I'm using this with my M2 air in clamshell mode when I'm not gaming on my pc. It actually charges it with the included usb-c cable, so I leave the mac's charger in my bag. It's a stunning display, and I'm not even sure if I need my ultrawide for work anymore. There's a quality assurance insert that came with the transcend about it coming calibrated for creators / artists and I can opine that it's probably true. I'm not an artist though, so take that with a grain of salt. Although, just seeing 4k videos things look like they would in real life.

Pros: Beautiful glossy 4k QD-OLED, 240hz screen KVM switch Great speakers 90w charge port Clean aesthetic Cons: Cost Menu buttons are a little annoying to navigate and in a weird spot

Stunning picture quality on a semi-glossy 4k QD-OLED display with 240hz designed for both gamers and professionals. Gets plenty bright. However, it is held back by firmware update issues, limited tilt, and the built-in Hyper-X speakers are not as robust/deep as I desired. The sound tears in very detailed listening compared to LG's built in speakers. The built-in speakers are not immersive and required equalizer fine tuning by me for it to be pasasble. Very limited sound stage. The monitor stand feels cheap and takes up a lot of area if using a small desk. The inablity to dim the monitor during HDR was infuriating at first but I found work arounds such as HDR local dimming inside Windows and using the lowest clipping setting in the built-in UI. 140 watt charger to charge phones and laptops is nice. KVM works. White boarder is stylish but hurts immersion in brightly-lit rooms. Excels in dark environments. The screen quality and clarity blows me away. The UI features are a nice addition offering gaming and professional settings.

The OLED monitor is exceptional in its color abilities and overall use. HOWEVER, it is exceptionally troublesome to a) update firmware and b) calibrate. We have 4 year old PC's that do not have the current USB C 3.2 standard, and this monitor apparently requires a USB C 3.2 connection from the PC to it in order to do upgrades. It does not work with an older USB C connection, as our PC has. So, buy with caution and know that many have had problems updating firmware (go to Reddit) and the calibration also really requires you to have a colorimeter as well. We have one, but cannot get the calibration software to execute, so square 0. But the picture sure is purdy.

Excellent picture quality. Love the amount of USB ports and setting profiles it has. Downsized from a two 27" monitor set up and do not miss it. I do photography, video, and gaming so its nice a company made something all encompasing. Really beautiful monitor with the best Samsung OLED for a good price.

Snatched this beauty open-box for $750. Looks and works like new, not a mark on it. OLED is miles better than VA and IPS, and having 4K + 240Hz leads to a stunning picture. Speakers are decent, not great, not horrible. The only reason I am dropping a star, the manufacturer warranty is only a year (not 3) like others have pointed out. In fact, it's a year from date of manufacture so I only have 8 months on it even though I bought it last month. It literally feels like a sc*m, and HP/Best Buy won't do anything about it. So, if you're worried about burn-in, watch out here. Other than that, fantastic monitor.

Fantastic Monitor! It’s an outstanding deal for gamers that double as content creators given it’s an OLED screen with a 240hz refresh rate mixed with great color management tools, calibration tools, excellent built in KVM and outstanding macOS support. It has an easy to use menu system that is both thoughtful and well designed.

With the relative selection of monitors out there, picking this up for $900 feels like a steal, although that's still bookoo bucks as I still have a perfectly fine IPS monitor that's 5 years old that doesn't burn-in. I digress. ----- AUDIO ----- I don't know why $900 monitors come with speakers, but some do - for the sake of the review, I enabled the monitor's audio and it sounds...okay. Much prefer my bookshelf speakers however. If you're looking for a simplified setup for work, they would sound clear enough and are much louder than laptop speakers. ----- OSD ----- The OSD is pretty easy to navigate, but changing the colors is rather difficult as they're in scales of 1000 as opposed to 100. There's preset OSDs under "Professional" and "Gaming" categories. The professional presets lean blue and the gaming presets lean red, in color. Professional has Display P3, sRGB, Adobe RGB, and BT.709. Gaming has FPS, RGB, RTS, GRM (Game Remaster Mode), Native (OLED panel default settings), HP Enhance+ (?), Cinema (movies). Each category has an Eco mode. HP Enhance+ features a Low, Medium and High mode, which adjust its enhance algorithm. The Professional presets have a "Color Information" tab that shows info about the colors, like the gamma, white point, and rgb values, but they aren't adjustable. The Gaming presets has a gaming tab that lets you turn on AdaptiveSync (DP) or FreeSync Premium (HDMI), a crosshair, edge sharpening, an on-screen timer, and your refresh rate display. The other menus include Lighting, Audio, System (incl. oled care options), Input (KVM, current input, picture-in-picture), and Power. The OSD is both intuitive and lacking features as well as information. ----- KVM ----- The KVM is fine and mostly works as intended. I have a laptop and desktop that share a keyboard and a mouse. My main gripe is that the KVM button will not switch to the other system if they have fallen asleep; with the laptop I touch the touchpad to wake and desktop the power button wakes it. KVM switches fine then. ----- COLORS ----- This is my first OLED, and when the colors hit, they _hit_. Nearly everything looks washed out on my IPS now. Silent Hill 2 in HDR was fantastic. League, CS2, Valheim...everything looks really, really good. I usually just use the FPS preset for all games. ----- MISC ----- Firmware update was a problem with my desktop, but my laptop ran it no problem. Software in the monitor sometimes seems buggy - when I enabled the audio earlier, the OSD kinda stopped working and I had to turn the monitor on and off a couple times for it to work again. The joystick for the OSD feels cheaply made, but the power button + KVM button are both fine. I mount my monitor so I have extra desk space, and at 15lbs, it fits fine on my dual-monitor arm that supports ~25lbs per arm. I didn't feel like I noticed a huge difference going from 1080p to 1440p for games - but 4k (...and the OLED probably...) looks really, really nice. Things are visibly way sharper at 32" 4k than my 27" 1440p. I finally understand why some people are like "imagine 5k at 32"!" Jury is still out if it's worth $900, but among its peers? It's a no-brainer.

I researched a lot to chooose the best premium 32in. gaming monitor and this was definitely the right choice. 4k 240hz, hdmi 2.1, dp 2.1 (UHBR10), 140w charger, HDR with 10 bit color, and a quick kvm switch. Literally everything you could ask for.

Excellent screen quality and size. The various hub ports on the back of the monitor for connecting multiple peripherals is an extremely useful benefit. I got an excellent price on an open box for this monitor and it exceeds expectations.
