Review on HP W2408 24 Inch Widescreen BrightView: Enhance Your Viewing Experience with Crystal Clear Visuals by Xavier Rebel

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Very good if you are reading this.

EXACT LINK = NO! HOT PICTURES = YES! A professional graphic designer is here - switched to this display from a 2003 Apple Cinema 23" display. It's not as good as the Apple for detailing, in fact I'll get another Apple to replace this one until I get mine that Eizo can afford - but for the price it's a great panel - just don't use it as a reference (use it for palettes!) Yes it's a very good monitor if you're going easy on your expectations BUT The Backlighting/bleeding on the sides is unbearable IF you leave it at the default settings, so start with these settings: Brightness: 100 Contrast: 40. And then also do an expert calibration in your display settings to restore detail in shadows and highlights - the monitor seems to have low intensity/saturation, big time You'll see bright, rich, fluid colors - like you've never imagined possible hold - everyone else will see pastel colors. If you don't create graphics or don't need links - this panel is STEAL :)
