HP W1907v

HP w1907v Flat Screen Monitor ************************* I am a big fan of Hewlett-Packard and have rarely been disappointed by their products, so after receiving this monitor as a Christmas present back in '07 I was pretty chuffed. This particular model has a 19" widescreen screen, has a resolution of 1440 x 900 and runs at 60 Hz. The contrast ratio (ratio of the brightest white to the darkest black the monitor is able to achieve) is 1:1000 which is totally adequate for my needs. It's essentially a great all round monitor that suits my needs perfectly. --Installation-- As with most modern computing equipment this ...  Read the complete review

I received this monitor as a gift (I usually buy my own electronics and thoroughly research positives and negatives). I believe it cost £150 at the time purchase, which I thought wasn't that cheap.

It could have been hurled down a flight of stairs, and I'm sure that there still wouldn't have been a mark on it. Everything that you need is in there, ranging from the monitor itself, power cable, audio and video signal cables, and a handy installation CD which allows you to amend any ...  Read the complete review

The HP w1907v is a great quality widescreen monitor, but it isn't without a few minor problems. It is a great quality screen, giving a crystal clear view and a great experience for both gaming and watching movies. It is easy to set up and use and even comes with a special software CD to change some advanced settings. It is widescreen, so is really great for gaming and watching films, but it means you see things a little different from people with normal sized monitors. The monitor itself looks great, nothing ugly about it. However, it doesn't have a headphone socket in it. It has speakers, but they are very quiet. ...  Read the complete review
