Firstly - its a known fact that most of the displays today are more or less the same with some variations around - controls - form factor - menu items - connectivity options What typically remains in same range is the resolution, contrast ratio, refresh rate etc In the overcrowded world of lcd/led monitors, this is on of the best ones. I have owned three HD displays for my PC/Mac. The Benq 24", AOC 27", and this HP 27". The good things about this HP 27" LED monitor 1. Its gorgeous, extremely slim, has a very minimalist base 2. The controls are ok, has hidden buttons below the panel 3. 2 HDMI ports, 1 VGA Port The not so good - the control buttons do not have any markings, so you just need to play around and figure out Apart from that, I have not observed any flaw with this monitor. It works great, easy on the eyes looks pretty. Highly recommended. PS - its better than my AOC 27". Pls pardon the photo quality, they are feom an ipad.
