This monitor dominates!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Upon first unboxing the monitor I quickly realized that this was no simple at home everyday monitor. This was made for professionals. It has a super large screen great to be able to view many things at one time. It also has a simple but sleek style to it that isn’t fancy but gets the job done for those who work professionally with their monitors on art work.
I first tested this product on a piece of 3D Modeling that needed to be textured and colored.
I love the built in calibration tool at the top of the screen. Usually I would calibrate my screen manually, but trusted the technology to calibrate it for me at first. The colors are vibrant and show a great range of scale. I think that with the built in calibration it was good enough, but suspect that it could of gotten better with a separate calibration manually.
At first I tested the monitor in a well lit room, but obviously it was made to be used in the dark to get the fullest range of darks.
One thing I do wish this monitor offered was 4K, that seems to be the norm of what people are looking for these days and as a professional that is always a bonus in a monitor. The monitor does have an array of many different ports available including 2 HDMI and several USB options. The Monitor also comes with an hdmi cable and 2 different usb cables and a DisplayPort cable.
I love the ability for the monitor to have different refresh rates and will work for a wide variety of projects.
Overall if you are looking for a monitor that excels in color accuracy this should definitely be at the top of the list.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was looking to replace a second monitor that was starting to dim - hard to calibrate. I was looking for a larger monitor, but hadn't considered 4k until I saw this monitor.
The 4k really makes a difference when editing photos. Taking high resolution images, it only makes sense to pair with a monitor that can display at these higher resolutions.
This will really up my game.
When I was evaluating monitors, a person I highly respect (works in technology and uses multiple HP monitors) told me that "yeah, you may pay a bit more for HP monitors - but they're worth it"
I'm glad I took his advice and got this monitor!

Amazing Monitor!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Hewlett-Packard HP Z27 - 27" 4K UHD Monitor is a wonderful addition to my Architectural office computer system. The display is big with rich colors and a deep contrast making detail items much easier to see. When using design related software, the large screen allows you to do far less zooming in and out which increases productivity. The rich colors and deep contrast are especially helpful when rendering conceptual and final designs to get a more accurate account of the space being created. The adjustable stand is especially nice as it rotates on its vertical and horizontal axis, and also from top to bottom making adjustments easy for any office or home application. The available onboard ports allow easy interface with existing technology infrastructure. The HP Z27 is now the monitor I use for all my design and management applications.

Great monitor for the home office!

This is a great monitor for the home office! The 4k UHD is simply amazing watching content on that. It's fairly lightweight for the size and the 27" monitor is nice and big. The only thing holding this slightly back is the 60Hz refresh rate. If this was 120, it would be the ideal gaming monitor. Other than that though, it gets daily use and will be great for years to come!
Pros: Lightweight

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This monitor was really easy to hook up. It's basically plug and play. After using for a few weeks, the monitor seems bigger than a 27" display. It's simple to use with multiple windows. It has multiple display options, and an awesome refresh rate. The stand is adjustable for good ergonomics. It comes with DVI, VGA, display port, HDMI, and USB ports. It comes with a power cord, HDMI, USB to USB C. I am using with the HDMI. The USB to USB C can be used for display. Comes with Samsund Dex so can use your phone, or other device for display. I am 100% satisfied.
Cons: Smoother Mouse Pad
Pros: Lightweight

The monitor seems well made and it works quite well. It was also able to keep my laptop properly powered which was nice.
I do wish the brighness could be controlled by the connected computer. I've got a chromebox hooked up now and the brighness slider in the OS does nothing.

Look no further!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Like the title says look no further! Because this is the missing piece you been looking for to add to your system! With the sleek style straight out of the box with complete your system. The 4k resolution you will see everything clear with this 27 inch HD monitor. The Usb-c is a clutter free life saving device with one cord to power all your needs. The set up is very simple and only take couple of minutes which is a plus. The color on the screen is just amazing so I wouldnt look no futher just order it you won't be disappointed. You will also be able to adjust the height and tilt that fits each user needs.
Pros: Affordable, Lightweight
