HP LP-65 Series Monitors (19",20",24",30")

The HP LP3065's performance is great. It has fantastic color reproduction, high brightness, and a wide viewing angle. Also, it includes screen height adjustment and rotation

The HP LP3065 has an expensive price tag and includes no video adjustment options aside from brightness. Also, for such a large monitor, HP's warranty is lackluster

The HP LP3065 has stellar performance, but its lack of adjustment features and connection options makes its high price difficult to swallow.

The LG Flatron W2486L lacks ergonomic features, has a low brightness level, and its color reproduction looks dull compared with its competitors

The LG Flatron W2486L is a great LED-backlit monitor that few will choose over its main competitor.

Dell ST2310

The Dell ST2310 is a good-looking 23-inch monitor with HDMI and DVI support at a low price

The Dell ST2310's low brightness level keeps colors from really popping when watching movies and playing games. Also, the monitor lacks ergonomic options and extras

The ST2310 has a low price and is good for everyday tasks, but it lacks some of the extra features included with similarly priced displays.

HP Pavilion 2709m

The HP 2709m includes screen tilt and swivel, built-in speakers, and an ambient light sensor

The HP 2709m has frequent screen tearing in games and movies, and its presets over-saturate the colors

The HP 2709m's lack of features makes it less desirable than HP's own similarly priced w2558hc.
