There are other glossy monitors out there. I believe a couple were suggested in this thread. Will you be checking any of them out?
Curious Samsung pls panels are said to have more ips glow than ips panels. Would you say your 390HL has more or less glow than the XWs you tried?

Thanks according to NCX, level 1 is the same as last years "on" setting. Level 2 provides even faster pixel response times with minimal overshoot making it even faster than some 60hz TN panels. As you said, level 3 is useless.
Well the options for overdrive in the 2016 models are off, level 1, 2 and 3. Not sure which one to use.
These monitors are described as having minimal glow however this screenshot of mine doesn't look minimal does it? Mind you it doesn't look anywhere near this bad in person.
PS does bias...
I can confirm that the new 2016 models have the same color tinting at contrast 80 but changing it to 75 and it's fine. Did these HP monitors always have this issue or did they change something in the panels/settings? I don't understand why they would make contrast 80 the default if that is the...
You're right that is weird. However if you go to HP Canada or Malaysia website you will see a more accurate description of the monitors. I guess the only way to get a panel with low haze is to move to either Canada or Malaysia. :D
My monitor is planned to arrive today if I am reading the...

OK so I just checked HP's website. 2016 models 25" and up are described as having a low haze panel while the 23" and below have the anti glare coating. Same as last year.
The 2016 models are out. No FreeSync and no longer capable of overclocking to 75hz either but according to NCX the color presets are slightly more accurate.
The models are ES (black back) and ER (white back). I just ordered the HP 25es myself as it was on sale. $189 canadian vs $289 for the XW...
NCX recently wrote this. Can anyone with color tinting issues confirm if this helps?
I recently realized that the HP's color issues is caused by the the contrast being set too high. Certain shades and colors, especially the lagom.nl white saturation test suffer from blue (HP 27CW & XW) and...
