    The HP LP2475W is a very good monitor. Colour reproduction is accurate and nuanced, and even though it has some colours deviations before calibration, LP2475W has better colours than the vast majority of monitors in the... Read more

    Once correctly calibrated, this monitor would be suitable for use by professional photographers. As for games and films, you're better off looking elsewhere. Read more

    HP has also bequeathed the LP2475W with a monster array of inputs including two DVI ports, HDMI, DisplayPort, VGA and component. And all for a highly competitive £412. It is, in short, our new favourite. Read more

    • Stunning IPS panel, More connections than you know what to do with, Reasonable price
    • Black levels could be better

    The moderately priced HP LP2475w display hits all the right buttons. One of the biggest decisions you may have to make when setting up this display is which of the myriad connectors to use. Read more

    Designed more for professionals than consumers, the HP LP2475w isn't the prettiest of monitors but its performance is almost unbeatbale. Image quality is fantastic and viewing angles are superb, so if you care more about the... Read more

    I have one on my desk at work, and several others in a nearby lab. If I make the mistake of turning on the monitor before I move the mouse to turn on the video (my computer is used remotely and not turned off), the monitor... Read more

    I bought this monitor for graphics and photography use, and am generally very pleased with it. I was surprised to find that the 2000-era Apple Cinema Display I upgraded from (which, granted, was a very fine, $2000-ish panel... Read more

    • Color rendition is excellent. Brightness is ridiculous (but can be toned down to a good level). Build quality and attention to detail are very good. Having a full 1200 pixel height is nice compared to most of the TV-spec p...
    • Very expensive for what is ultimately a not-huge improvement over panels that cost 1/3 as much. No CF/SD card reader. USB hub ports are fiddly to reach without actually peering around the bezel. The stand is enormously dee...

    I have my lp2475 along side a NEC2490 for video editing and I have to say that it compares very well. I wanted an aRGB with my sRGB nec in case I ever needed the color space while working in Photoshop. Read more

    • Perhaps the best IPS panel for the money. Superior stand. aRGB color space (if that's what you're looking for). Looks good out of box. Bells and whistles galore.
    • Demands calibration in order to achieve accurate color. The characteristics of IPS and aRGB may not be what you really need. In fact, they may be detrimental to you. Color uniformity issues?

    For those complaining about excessively oversaturated colours -- this actually why you are paying more for a wide-gamut monitor! It takes a bit of getting used to if you just came from a TN monitor world. Read more

    • Vivid colours, wide-gamut, tons of inputs - probably can last at least 8 years if taken care of. Colour acuracy didn't test since no hardware to calibarate, but other pro reviewers says its is great. Excellent functional d...
    • It is quite expensive elsewhere (~=800). Other than that, none really. Price in US is cheap (~= USD600).

Previous questions about this product

  • Frustrating slow startup input scans?

    Is there any way to stop the scan of all the inputs at startup BEFORE the display becomes active? It is maddeningly slow and frustrating. Just a way to set 'THIS ONE' and begin?

  • HP LP2475w adjust saturation and tint

    I just bought a HP LP2475w and the color is terrible. I can not adjust the saturation or tint as they are grayed out. I have it hooked up to a HP ZV6000 Pavilion. I've been calling HP for two weeks to no avail. How do I adjust the saturation and tint? Thank you.
