(5 out of 5)Good monitor for a great price
My cheap and cheerful digimate monitor gave up the ghost recently so I bought one of these. It does not have a DVI connection but the VGA connection does fine for me. The picture is clear and sharp and the widescreen is very useful indeed for word documents, photos - and movies. I'm impressed by the quality at the price - it may not have any bells and whistles but it does what it should do - provide excellent picture quality. Now I will just have to wait and see whether it provides reliability over time - years not months please...
(1 out of 5)Faulty stand
A warning for customers in the London area.
I ordered this monitor and when it arrived the hinge connecting the stand to the screen was faulty (it didn't move at all, so it was impossible to attach the stand). I returned it and received a replacement monitor (after just one day - no problem with the response from Amazon) but it had exactly the same problem. I think there must be a faulty batch at the warehouse, as the hinge part seems to have been assembled incorrectly. So if you want to stand this monitor up rather than mounting it on a wall, be prepared for some frustration before you get a properly functioning one. I am getting my money back instead.
(5 out of 5)Fantastic Product
The HP w2007V is a fantastic flat screen monitor. I had it out of the box, assembled and working inside 10 minutes. The monitor was plug and play with my PC and the HP display setting software is very helpful indeed, ensuring that you get the contrast, brightness etc just right.
The 2Watt speakers are simply not powerful enough in my opinion, however these were not why I bought the display.
As others have commented, the colours are truly vibrant - be under no illusion, this is a first class product.
(5 out of 5)Excellent picture quality. Isn't that what its supposed to do?
I bought mine March(ish) 2006, and it stood out from the 15, or so monitors that the superstore had powered on for demonstration. Clearly this glossy-thing is the future, as the colours were BEAUTIFUL compared with the 'non-reflective' screens. Which seemed very dark, in comparison.
The internal speakers are good enough for watching a film on, (but no hifi here), and the style is just lovely. Many people have commented - wow how much was that!
And just so you know I bought mine in Denmark, and paid like 200 pounds equivalent for it.
As for the other reviewer - no DVI? Who cares man - can YOU see any difference in the picture quality? Me gf and I can't, and I am typing / looking at a DVI-connected monitor right now. (Somebody just gave me a monitor - dam, could have saved some money, lol). Don't forget the Digital Rights Management stuff that can be carried over a DVI-connected device....
So, I'm delighted with my monitor, and bah to anybody that says different!
(5 out of 5)Great Monitor
Had none of the problems L Frino had with the stand, it all came out of the box perfectly and slotted together. The picture qulaity is brilliant, after a few minor alterations to brightness, contrast etc. Has some auto settings so you can quickly select your colour set up etc which are handy and is a bargain at £160.
I would defo recommend.
