This monitor have a manufaturing flaw or defect, I have only 1 1/2 years with this monitor and the volume window pops up unexpectedly and is not only me, SO MANY people is suffering the exact SAME problem, just visit [.]. I called tech support when the problem occurred and as a response was "Get a new Monitor", as a solution is an insult to the intelligence and the dignity of the Consumers.
One went bad while under warranty and spent over three hours trying to get a return authorization to have it repaired. Then be prepared to spend a half day or more trying to get authorization to get it repaired. Purchased several HP monitors. Nice monitor until you need help.
I wish I had two of them. The monitor works great for both and switching between the two is simple.The speakers are not that great. This is a beautiful 24 inch monitor. The vertical mode does have a limited viewing angle but not many monitors have this feature.I have my PC connected through VGA and an Xbox 360 connected through HDMI.
I've swapped the video cable between monitors - the color difference stays with the monitor, does not move with the cable. This is the type where foam is injected into bags, which expands and fills the box. [.]. I've verified all the monitor menu settings are identical. No damage that I've found. So it's not due to the video card. If I'd originally purchased two at the same time, there probably would not have been any difference.BTW, I really like the monitor clips that HP sells.
I'll try the HP calibration on their website first.That is an HP/monitor issue, not a supplier issue. $10. I am satisfied with this supplier.The only minor down side is that the color is not the same as same monitor model which I purchased earlier. This type of packing is probably better than the manufacturer (and more expensive). Delivery was prompt.Monitor itself is fine. It's substantially different.
The firmware versions are different, so it's possible the "color calibration table" in the firmware is different. I use the clips to hold my reading glasses and headset. Monitor arrived in good shape, with supplier foam packing, not the manufacturer packing. Works great. I'll just calibrate the monitors someday so that they look the same.
I felt I had to add to the "Not so great" category. Viewing angles really are that bad, "Halo" light around the edge of the monitor (This is after sending it back for yet another refurb).With brightness dialed down along with contrast, the picture can look good, but over all it really isn't a good monitor.I was really hoping for a refund whenm I returned the first unit, but it looks like there are a ton of available "Famous" maker HPs out there.
