    HP LP2475w (Possible new IPS)

    Finally got mine last night. I ordered from HP US and can confirm that the US version is the same IPS panel as the European version. I haven't had much of a chance to play with it yet, but here are my initial thoughts. Pixels/Defects - So far so good. I haven't noticed any bad or stuck...

    HP LP2475w (Possible new IPS)

    The HP is a brand new product that has just started popping up at US retail channels this past week. I'm sure the average price will drop some once more places get them in stock. The Planar has been out for over a year, so of course the price has come down some.

    HP LP2475w (Possible new IPS)

    According to the tftcentral review, the HP has the best measured black levels of any IPS panel to date, and great color accuracy once calibrated. The planar has lower input lag and a larger size. It all comes down to what is most important for you. A hardcore FPS gamer might want the Planar...

    Any good 22" monitor with 1920 x 1200 native resolution?

    The Lenovo L220x is the only 22" monitor I am aware of that has a 1920x1200 resolution.

    HP LP2475w (Possible new IPS)

    Has anyone in the US actually received this monitor yet? If so, where did you buy from? I am still waiting for HP to ship mine, and I ordered on Sept. 2nd. I am ready to cancel that order and buy from somewhere else if I can verify that someone is actually SHIPPING the monitor. I see a lot of...

    HP LP2475w (Possible new IPS)

    CDW is now listing the monitor for $629.99. They say they'll have them in stock in 1-3 days. As for HP.com, I ordered on the 2nd (the day the monitor was added to the US HP store), and it has yet to ship =\

    HP LP2475w (Possible new IPS)

    HP doesn't list panel types on the US site, but I spoke with a customer service rep a couple weeks ago who assured me that the US panel is IPS.

    HP LP2475w (Possible new IPS)

    $749 is MSRP, $649 is their "Smart buy" price. Basically, they keep the higher priced SKU for business customers who get bulk order discounts (or something like that, not sure exactly how it works), and the "Smart buy" price is what everyone else pays. There is absolutely no difference in the...

    HP LP2475w (Possible new IPS)

    The $650 price on the US HP site includes the $100 "Smart buy discount." They quote a shipping date of Sept 4th. Just ordered mine, looks like I should get it Monday.

    NEC Mitsubishi 930SB CRT + screen Jitter

    My 930sb just finally died recently. I'm not sure if this is the same problem you are having, but mine started off with a minor jitter as well. Every few mins, the picture would rapidly shrink and grow a few pixels. After a couple months this turned into half an inch, and it started happening...

    A bit overwhelmed with making IPS decision....

    Not "yet". Hazro has said they are working on getting a US distributor, but they've been saying that for a long time, so I wouldn't hold my breath.

    Calibration/ICC profile question, I haven't seen this asked

    The HP LP2475w does not have an internal LUT. There are very few monitors with internal LUTs and most of them are professional monitors that cost thousands. The NEC xx90 series (2490, 2690, etc), are the "cheapest" monitors I know of that have internal LUTs.

    HP LP2475w (Possible new IPS)

    The LP2475w has no internal LUT. I'm not sure about the Dreamcolor LP2480zw, but HP has just announced a hardware calibrator for the LP2480zw, so maybe it does have one.

    HP LP2475w (Possible new IPS)

    I hope he meant his xbox has no HDMI? There should be an HDMI port (#5) on the monitor between the Display port (#4) and the 2 DVI ports (#6).

    Any IPS, gloss screen, 24"- 30" monitors?

    The NEC 2490 and 2690 are matte. Supposedly, the new revision of the Hazro 24" IPS panel (HZ24Wi) is glossy... I've never seen one though, as they are currently only available in the UK. I'm not sure about their 26" and 30" screens. http://www.hazro.co.uk

    HP LP2475w (Possible new IPS)

    Glad to hear someone has gotten their hands on one! How is the polarizer? When viewing from off-angles, do you see the 'white glow' typical of most IPS panels, or does the picture remain pretty constant, like the NECs? If you get a chance, can you test the input lag for us? Enjoy your...

    HP LP2475w (Possible new IPS)

    I don't know anything about European pricing, as I live in the US, but the Euro HP sites clearly state the LP2475w panel type as S-IPS. It is listed in the spec sheet and all promotional material. If they did not list the panel type, then they could legally get away with substituting cheaper...

    HP LP2475w (Possible new IPS)

    Pretty sure the "W" denotes widescreen, and they are both widescreen. I think they just left the w out on the one item description. If you look on some of the HP sites, they list two different SKUs for the monitor, both with the same model number and IDENTICAL specs... but the cheaper one is...

    HP LP2475w (Possible new IPS)

    $650 is really cheap for an S-IPS panel with all those features and inputs. Also, on the US HP site, the monitor spec sheet doesn't list the panel type while the UK site does. I'll definitely be waiting for confirmation that the US model is, in fact, S-IPS like the euro models. If it turns...

    Me too! My CRT finally kicked the bucket a few months ago and I've been using an old, tiny LCD while deciding on a replacement. After months of trying to justify to myself the cost of the NEC 2490, I was finally about ready to give up and just buy something cheap... then I saw the specs of the...

    Whats the difference between HP LP2480zx and HP LP2475w ?

    The 2475w is S-IPS. It *should* be a very good monitor with a decent price. We'll find out soon, hopefully.

    Whats the difference between HP LP2480zx and HP LP2475w ?

    The 2480zx is a professional graphics monitor with an LED backlight and 133% wide gamut. The 2475w uses a standard (though wide gamut) CCFL backlight and achieves 102% gamut.

    Looks like the U.S. will have to wait a bit longer. I just spoke to an HP product rep and he had no specific details other than that the LP2475w is still slated for release in the US, eventually.

    HP LP2475w (Possible new IPS)

    Hmm. This morning HP US updated their site with several new models including the LP2275w... but no LP2475w =\ Also just noticed that the HP UK site now has the MSRP listed for the LP2475w, it is £476, (approximately $940 US).

    HP LP2475w (Possible new IPS)

    The US site doesn't even list the monitor yet, which is odd because it has been up on HP Canada, UK, CZ, Middle-East, etc for over a week now. The only official indication that it will be coming out in the US is a press pamphlet released in June that listed the release date as "August." The...

    The HP canada site has this monitor listed as S-IPS, so does the UK site and several other countries... the monitor is not listed AT ALL on the U.S. site, which is kinda worrisome. It has been referenced in some US press releases though, but that was without any details on panel type or specs...

    Hence the "hopefully". Given the prices of some of their monitors I won't be surprised to see this one priced more than it is worth, but since the LP2475w is being positioned as the "cheaper" alternative to the LP2480zw, I *hope* they'll price it to be competitive with the NEC 2490. At or around...

    HP LP2475w (Possible new IPS)

    HP has described it as S-IPS in a few different documents, so it is probably safe to assume it is a new, unannounced panel. If this is the case, I bet we can expect new product announcements from NEC and others soon. Hopefully the LP2475w will be cheap enough to be a viable alternative to the...

    This thread is kinda confusing, allow me to summarize clearly. The SV version includes both a hardware Colorimeter (a rebadged i1 display2) and the Spectraview software. The colorimeter attaches to your computer via USB and is dangled in front of your monitor, allowing it to "read" your...

    Blacking out power light?

    I used a black sharpie on my monitor's BRIGHT LED. It dimmed it enough so that it no longer blinds me at night, but it is still very noticeable. If I wanted to get rid of it completely, I'd use a little electrical tape, as suggested. It is the easiest solution and the easiest to remove later...
