  • i got a 23'

  • how to connect dvd player to computer monitor

  • Hey in the video u say that it goes from portrait mode to the original mode just by flipping the monitor and weve tried it cause we have it on the portrait mode and we cant get it back to the original mode!

  • Hey on the video u say it automatically changes when u flip the screen! We have it on the portrait mode and we cant get it back to the wide screen!

  • I have one and this has a horrible screen tearing.

  • they dont have this anymore =[

  • i think i seen at staples for $300

  • it looks like a apple led cinema dislpay

  • Yeah i have a 24 inch screen for 125 euros!!!

  • Is this available as 22 inch? 24 inch wont fit since I have a huge rack on my computer desk, and with a limited room wich only fits 22 inches as maximum.

  • Comment removed

  • I have currently a Samsung 20 inch syncmaster from 2008. And I hate it. The screen is sitting to low and the base were the screen stand on have become flimsy since I have changed the viewangle of the screen.

  • I have a Q Ive noticed that occasionally when I'm on the brightness will dim. Its not a significant dim but It is noticeable. At first I didn't really pay much attention to it because I thought It was the censer that auto adjusts the brightness levels. Then a few days ago I was looking thought the menu and noticed that the that feature was turned off. Should I be worried? Is this a sign that the back light is dieing or will die within then next months/years or is it just normal for it to dim?

  • I think this particular model has been discontinued. Although some retailers still have a few available, most of the big guys like amazon and newegg no longer sell it.

    I bought this model thru amazon back in March 2009. I can't speak about the reportedly crappy sound because I use separate speakers but I can attest to the awesome image/color/resolution and build of it. It is awesome. If you are interested in a similar model, check out the HP 2509m 25-Inch Diagonal Full HD LCD Monitor at amazon.

  • Alberto!

  • 400 brightness so you can burn your eyesockets out mwahahahha!

  • lol i have this screen very good one

  • i have the 22 inch 720p model

    and this 24 inch 1080p model

    is only 250 ish at wal mart

    so im getting it for christmas

    for sure

  • how much is it?

  • He forgot to mention that there is a light sensor located on the top left.

    I own the HP w2408 and it's still awesome when gaming and watching TV shows.

  • whats the light sensor for?

    auto brightness adjustment?

  • Yes. You are correct.

    The ambient light sensor will automatically adjust the brightness level when your environment darkness. You can toggle between on or off in the monitor on-screen menu. I don't use it much, as I manually adjust the brightness.

  • its big then other 24 inch monitor why ???

  • Why does this look so much bigger than other 24" monitors?

  • I just ordered the HP w2448hc, much better than this monitor.

  • Me too... It hase some cool futures as media player, card reader etc... But the main thing why i didn't want this monitor is that it has no DVI conector. The w2448hc hase DVI.

  • love this monitor.

  • i have the 21.5" version 1920x1080 (2159v) it looks amazing!

  • i have this i love the glos over the matte

  • you suck!

  • lol at 2:25 swivel

  • Comment removed

  • i own 1

  • these monitors are nice, i seen the hp 2207 monitor like this one and the picture quality was absolutely beautiful, so crisp, clear and bright, i plan on getting one myself

  • yea the 24 i am getting wont have 1,000 contrac rasio it will have 40,000 only 1920x1080 only for 219 dollors Acer

  • it has a 700:1 contrast ratio...and its dynamic contrast ratio is 50,000:1, and fyi the hp's do actually look better, acer looks a bit washed out, sadly

  • I have both a Glossy and a Matte monitor and occasionally use them simultaneously and I would say that despite the fact Glossy can be glarey it is definately better, it's alot easier to look at for long periods of time and looks alot more dynamic.

  • research the difference between glossy and matte.

    You will see matte causes eye fatigue and damages your eyes after a while. My eyes has been destroyed by matte and now I see the massive difference with glossy.

    Gloss is the most beautiful thing in the world because it absorbs all the light it don't scatter it like matte.

    glossy is the future and only retards think glossy is bad just cause of a few reflections.

  • wow well said mate

  • Comment removed

  • @MMATSdreadnautLOVER I totally agree. I have always had matte and last monitor I bought was also matte. If compared to glossy screen any matte is just awful. I had to compare side by side matte and glossy, when I was buying a monitor and I accidentally thought that some pictures look a bit better and more realistic. However, for all your needs, glossy screen is much more nicer and way easier on eyes. Matte layer makes everything too grainy and eyes have to focus alot. That sucks!

  • Glossy is better in the sense that it gives you much richer colours than the mat finish does, and they also look a bit more stylish too. The bad thing about them though is that they are VERY reflective. So if you have a window behind you, you're screwed and cant see anything. Then they suck.

  • @FPEvideos I hate glossy. Anyway I have an S-IPS panel 30" so I have got better colors than any TN panel, glossy or not.

  • @fpilee Yeah, I actually prefer having sex to not so I think I'll skip the whole wife thing. Anyway, why don't you get a life. You must have a shit ton of free time to criticize people who know more than you on the Internet. You must have an inferiority complex. Does that come from your lack of a girlfriend, the abuse you suffered at the hands of "uncle rick" or just your small dick?

  • Comment removed

  • @fpilee Who was bullying you?

  • I heard it had a lot of glare, which sucks if you game.

  • i have the same monitor and i use it for graphic design i can open photoshop on half of the screen and open internet explorer or any other program on the other half

    it helps me alot

  • why in God's name are you still using internet explorer?

  • @TheGreatStash1994 I'm just curious Ive never used such a big monitor. When you use stuff like firefox dosen't it fit the whole screen?

  • @MrJackanthony if you set the windows to full screen. the windows works the same way as a normal monitor. it is as big as you want.

  • @TheGreatStash1994 It's actually Firefox that he was using.

  • @TheGreatStash1994 Internet explorer works greate on Vista and Window 7 :)

    With 3 ms response time. One of the best monitor for watching movies. i have one (the w2448hc), but u still have to calibrate if u want to use it for graphic design. Need to calibrate double time, from HP software and from Video Card software... If u succeeded, then it should get 4.5 stars LCD 24 inch monitor.

  • awesome i'll buy this when it gets just a little cheaper

  • This is the BEST monitor I've ever seen, for gaming or video. Right now, there is no competition. Playing Modern Warfare, World at War, and Crysis looks unreal on this monitor! Buy it, you'll be glad you did!

  • I want to know if this has a PIP mode for TV viewing?

  • No, it doesn't have picture-in-picture.

  • im selling one. Brand new and unboxed!!!!

  • how much u sellin it?

  • in richmond?

  • I have one of those... and loved it...

  • What about the monitor in the background!!

    I want that one!

  • My monitor is an HP w2007. It has the same aspects as that one but it's a little smaller (20 inches) and it has a differant base. The main base is the same but it can't bend or go into porturate mode.

  • 3ms!!! not 5ms!

  • That's so cool, but its pretty expensive. I have the 19" version and it looks pretty stylish.

  • does this work in 220 volts

  • mine dont work

  • WOW!!!

  • Hey guys, can somebody please answer this?

    I'm planning to buy a EVGA GeForce GTX 280 Video Card SSC Edition. Will it be able to connect to this monitor? Also, the only other cable that will have to connect to this monitor other than w/e it is that leads to the gpu is the cable that goes to your poweroutlet/terminalboard?

  • I have the 22 inch version and a EVGA GTX 260... if they're any similar (and I'm betting they are lol) you'll be fine. Monitor came with VGA and HDMI cables. Graphics card is native DVI, but it comes with adapters for HDMI and VGA so you should be good. And in addition to the power cables and what not, you'll have to connect a USB (comes with the monitor) cord from your monitor to your comp to use any of the ports.

  • what is the difference between OEM and Retails?

  • OEM= open box, usually doesn't include any extra's such as manuals, cds, wire, etc... but usually cheaper price compared to retail.

    Retail= original package, includes everything. Keeps manufacturer's warranty. More expensive than OEM

    ...if you just want to buy the product without any extra's and know what you're doing, buying an OEM is much better.

  • thanks i got this question answered 2 weeks ago but thanks for helping lol

  • Oh ok,:P No problem!

  • Can you explain to me the difference between dvi and hdmi? Which do you prefer?

  • DVI: Basically, used for transmitting digital video

    HDMI: Used for transmitting video and audio (usually 7.1) through one cable instead of seperate cables

    Between DVI and HDMI, it all depends with you, They both deliver the same when it comes to video. If you have an HDMI connection, I recommend using it, it's just more cleaner than having several wires. (Only if you are not using a seperate speaker system)

  • I just just about any PC monitor out there, this one is the winner !

  • PC? I'm getting it for my Mac :)

  • i have a HP w2408h its realy cool

  • hey guys plzzzzzzzz suggest me a good LCD monitor of 1920*1200 native RES other than this eg from Viewsonic or Samsung or HP.....

    P.S= If Resolution is same,does getting a 28 incher over a 24 incher bring any benefits except size???

  • Dude, I was in the same shoes as ur in and I got myself this monitor. BEST MONITOR EVER!!! NO JOKES dude. And if your into graphic design or gaming THIS MONitor Is it. I'm currently using the VGA port and works Flawless. My screen has HDMI input but i'm not going to use that until maybe in the near future with my new graphic card.

  • does the hdmi port mean ill be able to play xbox360 on this screen in hi-def?

  • Yeah it does mean you can, I bought this monitor mostly to play games on. I plug my PS3 right into the monitor, Also the monitor includes an HDMI cable. The PS3 also has the HDMI plug in. The 360 you need to buy the HDMI cable.

  • Unless you have an xbox elite then you dont have to buy the HDMI cables.

  • Well i have a Play Station 3 and look really cool with the HDMI

  • Glad to hear to that bcz im buying it!

  • duh..

  • Well I'm sorry too, that your an ignorant fuck.

  • oh ok chuck norris im ignorant cause i asked a question about the screen. seriously dude, seriously?

  • You fuck.

  • you fucken fuck tart, apple is the best, okay the monitor is okay, byt you cant beat the apple's, DUMASS

    GO GET A JOB,

    Bitch

  • Sorry no, getting bigger Display it would better to have a Full HD display like Sony Bravia. Worth it

  • Apple Do Rly rly great monitors Just abit over priced As apple is lol

  • apple cant play crisis and imac is not a fuking monitor its a all in one desktop dumass hp has one too with a video card now that can play some games

  • How can a monitor be articulate?

  • I have one of these. Freaking sweet!

  • I could so use one of those, if only they would make a monitor with built in TV/DVR, then i will be set

  • Cool Video! 5@@@@@!

  • anyone else here thinks that thing looks a lil flimsy?

  • my friend has that monitor is really good (even though he only runs it a 1024x768 =\)

  • wtf? why so low? roflmao you you've gotta use 1680 x 1050 or higher

  • heh unless you have built in speakers for a display, you dont need an hdmi port on it because some displays only use it for the video purpose and not the sound. big waste of an hmdi port for those monitors since its basiclly dvi.. but if this does have 2x2 watt speakers. then it can benefit...

  • hp till the end

  • Very nice!

  • nice rev !

  • whats ur aim?

  • holy shit hdmi i want it

  • i like the fact he said, here at work uhh well here where i am, does he get paid or does he just hang out?

  • wow look at all the buddies he has on AIM jesus

  • what is the dynamic contrast ratio?

  • most monitors have about 1000:1 ratio, the more there is, the more you can see darkness and brightness levels. For instance, Samsung LCD widescreens usually have monitors with over 1000:1 dynamic contrast ratio, which would benefit graphics or show a compelling contract of light and dark shades. The more contrast ratio it has, the more black it is, and the more white it is.

  • i too have the 22 in version, btw why would anyone need all that brightness. all the monitors i have i have set to lowest brightness so is kinda useless for me, also, how come that one looks so big on the video?? my 24 monitor looks so small :(

  • MAYBE... *GASP* Albert is reeeeeallllllly short...

  • omg lol i was thinkin the exact same thing rofl

  • Nice

  • my dad has that monitor except its 22"

  • If this monitor had dvi this would be a killer monitor

  • or a tv tuner :D

  • w2408 without the h has DVI. This is just the HDMI version.

  • just get a HDMI-DVI Converter.

  • the problem with HDMI is that you need a sound splitter if you don't want to use the sound attached with your TV, and this monited doesn't seem to have speakers.

  • doesn't have fucking DVI?

  • NO Dvi fuck no

  • hdmi is the shit

  • I use this monitor with my ps3 and pc its so awesome

  • you use vga with your pc?

  • I ues the hdmi 4 both

  • Rubbish, no DVI. Dell 2408 has 2xDVI, 1xVGA, Display port, HDMI, Component, S-Video, Composite. Also you can flip screen like you can on HP.

  • Also it has card reader, 2xusb on side and 2xusb on bottom for keyboard and mouse.

  • why no DVI? :()

  • i still believe dvi is better than hdmi

    if it had dvi this monitor would be awesome

  • 1000:1 is good, as all company use different ratings.

  • sweet

  • He's so annoying...always say "NOW!" then 2 secs later "NOW!"...ok NOWMAN, what's your supper power?

  • sick monitor.. i been using a 22 last year or so , but been wanting to go 24".. this one has me interested.

  • WTF is the 4870X2???
