I bought one of these the last time Woot offered them for sale. Somethings to know:
The box comes marked as REFURBISHED
The face of the monitor is highly reflective and if you have an open window nearby, the glare from the sun outside will interfere with visibility on the monitor. They are great to use in a dark room, just not so much in a bright room.
If you try to pull of the labels covering the original HP logos and markings, you will find that half of the HP markings have been removed, 1/4 altered in such a way to make them ugly, and 1/4 are still there.
I snagged the 25" version of this same monitor from woot about a year ago … also a refurb … and it’s worked perfectly since I hooked it up. One of my better woot purchases!
How do you figure? I have a 1920x1280 display on my 15" laptop, and couldn’t be more happy with it (in fact, I can’t stand using smaller resolution laptops anymore, not enough screen realestate)…
I bought this for my wife from HP when they has a sale,plus coupon code,so it cost me 311.00 total.I bought the 25" refurb here on Woot,which just fits on my small computer desk.These monitors are SUPER GREAT!!!Best monitors I have ever had,plus no dead pixils.
