There are several things about this monitor that are nice. The image is beautiful, the monitor itself is stylish and the wide base makes it stable. The speakers are another story. I was excited to reclaim my desk space and get rid of my old speakers but the sound coming from this monitor is making me wish I had my old speakers back! The sound comes out of the rear of the speaker and it sounds as if you are listening to the old tin can telephones we made as kids.
Dont get me wrong though. The picture quality is awesome! If you do a lot of web browsing this would be a great monitor for you but if you are purchasing this monitor to watch videos, play music or games, better budget a few bucks for new speakers too.
What's great about it: Excellent picture
What's not so great: speakers sound terrible
I would recommend this to a friend!

This monitor had been great, we loved the wide screen and it was easy to adjust. Then one week after the manufactors warrenty expired the screen went blank and would only flash on for 3 seconds before in went blank again. After taking it back to the Geek Squad to have it checked out, they said it was the back light, which lights the screen for viewing. They said it was expensive to fix and I would be better off replacing it. So now I'm out $200 dollars for another monitor. If you get this model make sure you get an extended warrenty!!!!! I learned the hard way.

Well, we have had our screen since June, AND THE PICTURE IS STILL FABULOUS! Thanks for the DVI cable HP! The only thing that is not good is the speakers... they are not good, AT ALL. When you go to buy this, go look for the cheapest computer speakers there, I bet even they will sound better...
What's great about it: PICTURE, comes with DVI cable, and almost everything else...
What's not so great: THE SPEAKERS SUCK!!!

Purchased this moniter about a month ago. This is by far one of the nicest mon iters I have ever owned or purchased for such a good price. Unlike the larger models of this moniter.. this one is not heavey, off balance or a space hog.
This computer fits so well on a desk top that I have 2 now for duel screens and I still have plenty of room on my desk for writing and other stuff. The keyboard storage area under the screen is excelent to clear room for other things you may need to use your desk for. If you run duel screens its even better cause then the 2nd screen keyboard storage area can hold your moust and pad!
The image is more then excelent. Bright vibrant colors. anything you can dish out on screen the screen can handle.
Built in speekers are not all they should be..this is only a minor issue. I have a nice cheep quality set of external speekers hooked up to get the sound I want. I dont even use the speekers on the moniter anymore. But if your external speekers break.. the speekers are more then fine to still get your sound out.
Over all I'd say this is one of the best screens you can get for the price.
What's great about it: Great image, keyboard storage space, easy set up
What's not so great: Built in speekers

I was getting tired of staring at a 12" screen of my Mac Powerbook G4 laptop and decided it was time to upgrade to an external monitor. I had my eyes on a competitor model, LG W1942T-PF, which cost a little more at $159.99. Both the HP and LG 19" models were spec'd the same, and there wasn't much of a difference in picture quality between these two. By the way, Best Buy hooks up all there monitors on display at the store with VGA instead DVI, so if you hook up with DVI at home the pic quality will be an improvement. I liked the design of the HP over LG; LG had cheap looking plastic base compared to HP's metal base which is sturdier, LG had an annoying blue status light on the frame while HP's is hidden. The inclusion of a DVI-D cable sealed the deal for me. I wasn't about to pay another $50 for a DVI cable. It was basically plug n play to my Mac using DVI. Although I dialed down the brightness and contrast as it was too dynamic when using as dual monitors with the laptop display. The one year warranty is kind of chinsy, but then again, I've never had a problem with HP products. I have a 5 year old HP laserjet printer that's still alive and kicking.
What's great about it: color, brightness, DVI-D cable is included unlike other brands
What's not so great: lack of built in usb ports, one year warranty is frugal for a multi billion dollar company like HP
I would recommend this to a friend!

Got this Moniter as part of a bundle and was very pleased. My old moniter was this ancient eMachines thing from before the turn of the century and the difference is AMAZING! Was a little bit too bright at first, but some simple adjustments later and was off and running! Loved the integrated speakers, space saving and great quality.
A small drawback is that it is much bigger than my old moniter and is a little over-bearing. All in all, a great buy.
What's great about it: Very Bright, Easy to set up
What's not so great: Can be overbearing for people not used to screens this size

The HP 19" LCD Monitor display has an amazing picture quality, allowing you to view almost anything with pure perfection. It has an integrated design to it that makes it a wide screen monitor, but a big space saver. Watching movies on this display is a wonderful experience that adds a cinematic feeling to it. If you're a person who really likes good sound quality, the monitors built in speakers are not the best around, but they play sound on an average level. My suggestion to you is to buy external speakers for a more rich sound quality. The monitor's screen has a glossy touch to it, making it somewhat more durable and scratch resistant, along with making the picture quality better. It's import selections allow you to do almost anything with it. In conclusion this monitor is overall a great buy, and I highly recommend you buy this monitor.
Rating: 10/10
Synopsis: A great monitor with loads of features that allow you to view anything on it with wonderful quality. Sound quality is average, but does not live up to the monitors picture quality.
Should I buy this: Yes, this is a great buy.
What's great about it: This screen is an amazing buy with perfect picture quality and features.
What's not so great: There is nothing wrong the HP 19" LCD Monitor

VERY SHINY!! I LOVE IT!

This was purchased with a system. I had not intended on purchasing a monitor but the computer I did. The monitor was on sale for a good price so I decided to get it. I am glad I did. The picture quality is fantastic. My wife and I do lots of photo work and this monitor will adjust perfect with A Spyder 3 pro and Epson printer so what you see on screen is exact to what you print. Loved it so much we went back and purchased a second one at regular price.
What's great about it: Features, Great quality screen, Pictures look great, Wonderful for working with Photshop.
What's not so great: Not now.

I had lcd monitors before, and i have to say for the price this is the best one i ever had. If you want a decent 19 inch monitor, i would not look any further then this one. I dont like the fact that the sound on it sucks, but PC speakers are really cheap, so i just got a set of good PC speakers. Besides, you dont buy a monitor for sound anyway, you boy a monitor for the picture.
What's great about it: cost, picture, ease of use, ease to install
What's not so great: sound

I can't reccemend this monitor enough. I upgraded from a 17" 4:3 monitor for various reason. I decided to go to Best Buy just to get an idea of what I might want. Little did I know I would walk in front of this HP monitor. It was easily the best of the pack, for it's size and price range $150-$300.
I took this baby home and installed it with ease. Man oh man that's a great picture. Very few times have I ever purchased a HDTV or monitor and have it actually perform better at home like this one has.
I love it so much, I decided to un-hook my 360 from my 32" Sharp Aquos and hook it up to this monitor, as well as my PC. I purchased a DVI switcher, that way I can run them both digitally, instead of one DVI and the other analog.
GET THIS MONITOR.
What's great about it: Perfect Picture, nice design, and only $199.99
What's not so great: On black screens, the very top and bottom glow
I would recommend this to a friend!

This is by far one of the best 19'' monitors I have seen. I looked at all the monitors in the store and this one took my breath away! Some might say that they don't like the Glossy screen, but I have a Dell laptop (Inspiron 1526 from BestBuy) with a glossy screen and knew how much more clarity the glossy effect gives. If your looking for a big screen monitor that is wall mountable (VESA 100mm compatible), has Good integrated spekers, has a glossy high def screen, and has the HP name... this is the perfect solution for you. Please look at the pictures I provided. All and all, best monitor out there for the money.
What's great about it: Glossy Screen, 19'' widescreen, HP brand, Speakers, DVI input
What's not so great: none

I have used several flat panels at work. This is the firt one I buy and I could not be happier. The quality of the image is outstanding. It adjusts itself to any source with amazing ease. A friend of mine had a computer that was giving him trouble with his monitor and I used this flat screen to check if the problem was the computer of the monitor he was using. When we plugged-in this monitor, the difference was dramatic. He was running an old version of a popular OS, but when seen through this screen, the image was amazing. His computer did not seem as old with this screen, surprisingly.
I must say, though, that the makers of the screen forgot to turn up the volume. If you decide to use the built-in speakers, you have to be prepared for very low level volume. It drived me nuts!! It's much better to plug in your own speakers separately.
What's great about it: Great picture and nice size
What's not so great: Volume is too low
