-The picture is great but the sound is very low but it does have sound just very low. I have another just like it that has great sound I swopped the cords as this one came without a sound cord only the VGA cord to see if the sound worked, I'm not too unhappy with it as I bought it for $40 glad it wasn't more. so I'll keep it.

My previous experience with this particular model of monitor was very enjoyable It had a crisp, sharp image and provided me over two years of enjoyable use. This replacement monitor although the exact same model does not have as sharp and clear an image and there is some water spot damage inside the monitor display. I am not certain whether that can be remedied, but as I did not pay that much for this monitor, I suppose that is to be expected. The one plus is that it came with the original monitor stand, which sits at just the perfect angle for viewing. For the money I paid ($12.00 plus shipping) this monitor is well worth the price, especially if it lasts two or more years.

I have owned this monitor, and used it on a daily basis for nearly 2 years. First, I will say that the speakers are absolute crap, so plan on buying externals. The monitor has settings pre-loaded on it for video, game,photo, and text, as well as the ability to use custom settings. I have read a lot of reviews on other sites saying this monitor is bad with text, I think those people didn't know how to adjust their settings, because text on this monitor is goregous. Photos and graphics are a little above average. Videos and games leave something to be desired. MINECRAFT PLAYERS: the game mode is excellent for helping you see in dark mines when you run out of torches. XD This monitor was given to me, brand new still in the box. Now, after almost 2 years, I'm starting to see vertical lines running through it when I have dark backgrounds. I know this is a sign that this monitor is on it's last legs. Were I purchasing this monitor, I would not spend more than $90 on it. You can get far superior equipment now-a-days for $99. Also, a final note, the cord on this monitor is pretty short. I have it setting on my desk, and the tower is under my desk. The monitor can barely be pulled forward a few inches. Also, the connection is very lose on it, as one of the screws that holds the cable in doesn't tighten all the way, but this could be a problem that is isolated to just my unit.Read full review
First and foremost, if you can get this monitor cheap, say for $150 or less, then don't hesitate to buy it. Any price higher, you might consider options. Connectivity and the built in speakers were not a choice for me when I purchase this monitor. I needed an auxiliary monitor when editing photos so it was not to be a main monitor. However, out of the box, the monitor NEEDS calibration. Colors are off, which is to be expected from a consumer grade monitor. However, the 2408h series monitors have an incredible color gamut that I was hoping to find in the 1907h monitors. But these two monitors are vastly different. If color gamut is not an issue, then this monitor provides a good resolution (although it could be better), crisp display properties, and bright backlighting. Speakers sound like laptop speakers and are nothing to be impressed by, unless you really want to save space on the desk. Oh, and the stand that comes with the monitor is not even close to what the higher end monitors can do. No swivel, no height adjustment, no portrait mode, just a tilt, that's it. I could probably find better 19" monitors from other brands and mix it with my hp main monitor. But I don't like the Frankenstein look on a desktop. The clean and sexy look of the hp monitors does well for me.Read full review
Pros: good picture, glossy, affordable Cons: flimsy and limited usefullness of stand, 1 year warranty, ymmv quality, no DVI cable Summary: I had it for a week. The glossy screen and frame are nice. The picture clear and color are accurate and vivid. Backlight bleeding or leaking is minimal and barely noticeable with black background. Good value for the money What I really don't like is the stand design. The base has some small soft fabric cushions underneath that makes the whole monitor less stable than it should. Also, due to manufacturing defect, the monitor might not be perfectly horizontal and you can't do anything about it since the stand only lets you tilt the panel. Also, the HP only backs this product with a 1-year warranty while other companies give 3 years. This might say something about the quality over the long run. In fact, the first one I got was very bad: the backlight bleeding was horrible, color reproduction was non-uniform and the control buttons felt like they were going to fall off by any minute. I returned it and got a new one that is far better in all aspects.Read full review
