Other perks include 75Hz refresh with AMD FreeSync technology, audio profiles, the ability to change gamma and a mode that maps colors to compensate for color blindness. It's got three HDMI 2.0 inputs with HDCP 2.2 - most cheap monitors have two at most - though most people really don't need that many. And possibly loud enough to annoy your upstairs neighbors (who are annoying you by galloping around 24/7). They're hardly audiophile quality, but they're decent enough for watching movies, streaming music while you work or listening to podcasts, and they can get loud enough (without distortion) to hear from a fair distance away. If you want a cheap, attractive FHD monitor with built-in speakers that don't suck, this should be on your short list. Potential drawbacks for some people are the lack of built-in speakers and the moderately high price. (Note that the wide-angle photograph makes it look curved, but it's not.) Because of the thin-but-not-too-thin depth, it's also suited for perching a webcam atop. I've been using it for months and I haven't had a single problem or screen artifact issue. HP's 27-inch 2,560x1,440 27i features a wide color gamut (98% P3), a gaming-friendly 165Hz refresh rate with Nvidia G-Sync (over DisplayPort) and an elegant design that should pass muster with less gaming-oriented family members it's got some simple gaming lighting, but also a useful task light shining down beneath the bottom bezel.Īnd because of the unique port arrangement - on the sides of a diamond in the back - it's a lot easier to maneuver cables than the typical recessed, bottom-accessed design. Although it's part of HP's Omen gaming line, this has become one of my favorite overall monitors of the past 12 months.
