Very nice IPS picture quality, and HD video playback is excellent. The monitor has a small footprint on my desk, and I will probably purchase the optional adapter to mount the display to a adjustable monitor arm(would have been nice if it had been included).
Only 2 intputs, VGA and HDMI, but perfect for my needs. The onscreen menu has a lot of customization options, and the preset selections are very convenient. Color range is excellent, and brightness is very good, but higher maximum brightness would have earned 5 stars.

I was a little sketchy on getting this screen because it looked thin (and is) and looked as if it could break easily. I had an old HP 17" and was looking for an upgrade. This screen was better than I thought. Customization is easy, setup was not a struggle at all, and the screen is sturdy as long as you don't smash it around, much like other things. All in all- I would buy this again.

Overall great screen quality, and as easy as expected to set up. I like the design of the footprint, and the overall resolution and color is sharp.
I would have preferred the bottom bar of the screen to be in Black instead of Silver, which does stand out a bit, but not a big deal, just a stylistic preference.

This Monitor was the perfect size and the display was beautiful when we saw it on the shelf's, HOWEVER once I brought the monitor home and set it up the monitor was broken, the screen would been pointing down towards the floor, no matter how many times we try to movie it.
So the next day I brought it back to Best Buy and see the metal connections inside the monitor was broken. So they gave me another monitor with a 20% discount. We tested the monitor at the store to make sure that wasn't broken ether. They quotes "I pick a bad apple."
All in all, we're happy with the monitor.
Other Thoughts: The instructions were simple as turning a key to start the engine. :)

I bought this monitor to work at home. It works fantastic. I couldn't be happier. It is very easy to assemble and thin enough to fit on my small desk.
I highly recommend this product for home use.

I had to replace a monitor that went bad and purchased this HP computer monitor. It uses HDMI and presents an HD quality image. I thought it was a very good deal and am considering purchasing anothers similar HP monitor for my office.

I needed a secondary monitor and this one proved to be a great choice. It was easy to set up and I quickly had an extended dual monitor set up. The VGA input of course does not do the monitor justice and it took me a long time to get the monitors settings adjusted to and have a great picture. The HDMI connection proved to be a better fit but a challenge to find the proper connection at the office. Overall a very good monitor.

Great display with wide viewing angle. Design is also good though I wish it rotates vertically. Just a heads up, this doesn't have a DVI port. I was forced to dig around for an HDMI cable but that's my fault for not reading the specs carefully.

Powered off, it's a nice, clean looking monitor. I've always been a fan of HP products. My two gripes are the lack of input options (not a huge deal with just HDMI and VGA, but it would be nice to have display port or other input methods available) and more importantly, the picture quality. It's just a bit fuzzy regardless of the input method or menu tweaks. I recently consulted for a friend's business (he has the same monitors) and he mentioned how he was annoyed with the lack of clarity so I know it's not just me being picky. I'm running dual monitors and my HP W1907 monitor (purchased in April of 2008) that's sitting next to my new monitor has superior text clarity.
In the end I'm still happy with the clean look and solid value for the price that this HP offers.

My old monitor died do I needed a replacement. Was recommended this monitor by a staff member and could not be happier with it. I had to be careful with dimensions so it would fit into my desk and it fits perfectly.

Although I use the computer with this monitor for business mostly, the monitor images are sharp and easy to read. The color balance seems to be good, although I do not do photo editing at all
