Pros: Were nice at first

Cons: DO NOT BUY! See below>

1 out of 3 will go bad!!!
Seems like a QA issue for these screens

Other Thoughts: I didn't buy from newegg but i feel like i should comment on this product>
my company recently purchased (33) LP2065 monitors dirrectly from HP. After only one month (9) have developed white spots, thats a failure rate of nearly 1/3!!!

Also the matte finish DOES make the screen blury. I hope I saved you from a bad purchase.

Newegg is #1 in my book

Pros: The screen definition is excellent and the viewing angle is wide, as advertised

Cons: I bought 4 monitors at the same time. 3 of the 4 have developed the exact same defect - bright white dots 1/4 to 1/2" at the edge of the screen. I returned one monitor and got a replacement from HP with several stuck pixels. I am getting ready to return another 2 while still in warranty because more spots are appearing and the ones already there are getting brighter. This is definitely a manufacturing defect. I paid quite a bit to get a professional grade monitor and was very disappointed.

From now on I will stick with Dxxx Ultrasharp monitors. Just bought two 22" models and both are flawless.

Other Thoughts: I guess HP must have had a bad manufacturing run at the China factory, but how in the heck 3 of 4 monitors I got went bad is beyond my concept of modern quality control

Pros: Yes, it is pretty, just like fishing lures are pretty. (But always remember that most fish are mostly color blind, and that most fishermen are unaware, color infatuated idioots.) That said, the matte finish problem (explained below) detracts even from photo viewing/etc. *and* even video viewing (of any kind of video). My rather old dell is better in every single way except brightness (who cares), viewing angle (but barely), and color accuracy (but on this machine I don't care). Oh, the many cables and dual dvi inputs are nice--can't take that away. (By the way, both my monitors are hooked up via dvi to the same very nice system.)

Cons: The matte finish on this monitor is offensively smeary and blurry. It is a lot like someone smeared cooking oil all over it. Yes, matte finishes are a good thing if you have a lot of reflections to worry about, but they come at the price of blur. If you read text, especially if you read a lot, this monitor will slowly strain your eyes to the point of serious pain. I have my lp2065 side by side with a dell 1800fp that is 6 or 7 years old and getting dim with old age, but when you compare them the dell feels brand new and the lp2065 feels like a retro cheap-even-in-its-time early 1990s monitor. The lp2065 has a great matte finish, the kind that you can't really tell is even there. If I put a bare spiral florescent light bulb 8 feet behind me, I don't notice it in the dell reflection, but I can tell, if I try, that the bulb is a spiral because I can see the shape. I don't notice the bulb in the lp2065 either, but when I try I can't imagine what the light source might be.

Other Thoughts: I am no fan of dell. I think they generally make garbage. But this hp2065 matte finish makes this the worst product I have purchased in my entire life, by far. There's a good lesson here about newegg reviews. They are a priceless resource, one of the best reasons to have an internet at all, but many reviewers are semi-ignorant. I read every review before getting the lp2065, and I saw the worry but thought the concern would be minor, based on how few comments there were. I have the ips model, and I have to say I think people are more snob-and-idiot than picky-and-choosy about the ips lottery issue. The odds are good that the matte finish issue is made worse by having two different monitors on one machine, because your eyes probably adjust better if you always look at the same matte depth. Probably this screen has a bigger than average gap between monitor surface and matte finish surface. If you must get this monitor, it likely will be better to have just one, or 2 identical.

Pros: Bright, sharp, large screen.

Cons: Others have mentioned the anti-glare, however after sitting in front of two all day at work; it has a holographic grainy effect that starts to bother my eyes. To the point that I have replaced one with a CRT. Any long reading I put it on the CRT.

Pros: Great color and image detail. Acceptably wide viewing angle. I use 4 of them in a row for a trading workstation and other than some minor color shift when viewing the far edges, they work just fine.

Cons: I already had to return one within 2 months and am getting ready to return an additional two. All have the same problem which is a very noticeable backlight bleed at the upper left edge of the screen. It looks like someone turned on a white, LED flashlight behind the screen it's so bright. Over time the size of the bleed has increased. Hopefully the fourth monitor will hold together. Since I bought all 4 of them at the same time, and they have similar serial numbers, I guess someone at the Chinese factory was having a bad day when they got assemble.

Other Thoughts: I got these monitors directly from HP when they had a big sale with free shipping, so I can only be but so upset with the backlight bleed defect, assuming they replace the next two monitors as quickly as the first one.

Pros: * 20" + 1600x1200 = high pixels per inch = more detailed picture
* colors are noticeably richer as compared to my cheapish Hanns-G
* two inputs for use with two computers yet no KVM (KM?)
* 2 USB ports
* includes all cables
* heavy-duty highly adjustable stand

Cons: * uhhh... can't think of any

Other Thoughts: My monitor came with no dead/stuck pixels.. if there are any I can't see them.

I recommend this monitor for people who don't want or like widescreen (I don't see the appeal myself, I'd rather have more pixels per inch) and don't want to spend $1200 for a 'super professional quality' monitor. The color reproduction is noticeably better than every other LCD monitor I've seen - though I never have seen a super expensive monitor in action.

Pros: This is a followup on an earlier review. When these work well, they're fine.

Cons: Got two for dual-monitor setup. After a little over a year one failed. HP replaced it, though it took an hour on the phone 'cause this monitor is classed as a "business" product so they send you to business division and then tell you you have no warranty, which you do.

First two were REV GSM002; replacement is GSM000; looks OK but picture doesn't match the other and there's intermittent coil whine.

Other Thoughts: LCD monitor mkt doesn't seem to have changed much in last year and a half -- prices are if anything higher and no innovation. I would like something less power-hungry.

Pros: This is a wonderful monitor. No dead pixels and everything works great. I bought 2 and I am very happy with both of them.

Cons: None at all.

Pros: Newegg is great, shipping fast, wish HP had even a small fraction of the quality of customer service that Newegg does. I won't buy another HP product ever.

Cons: Broken right after I got it... HP customer service is horrendous. I spent hrs on the phone and talked to many different people in different departments. HP simply does not stand by their products. The monitor is broken and they will not fix it nor will they offer me a replacement except an old, beat up refurb. I got tech support in China and Customer Service in Costa Rica. They just read off a script, they do not do anything to help the customer, and they just don't care.

Other Thoughts: HP is the worst. Avoid them at all costs. I've had a few bad experieces with their customer service. I'm done with them. As always, Newegg is great. Got the monitor overnight.

Pros: amazing color representation.
lower price compared to apple cinema and other LCDs using S-IPS panels

working stand allowing adjustments

portrait mode

Cons: texts not that sharp compared with S-PVA or MVA panels, for example, DELL Ultrasharp 1705FP or 2007wfp

Other Thoughts: i originally bought this panel for programming. but i dont know if it is my VGA output that dims the output. I compared the text in both 2065 and dell 1705fp, the latter got sharper text but worse color representation.
