Product was received packaged well. Plugged it in and immediately noticed the colors were not sharp and bright. The resolution was fine everything seemed fine but the colors were not as vivid as the 5 year old monitor that this one was replacing. I decided that perhaps it needed color calibration, and performed this and was still underwhelmed even with the minor improvement. Checked to see if there was any troubleshooting I could do for this problem, I found a few things on the HP support site but nothing that really improved the problem. I ended up setting the "technicolor" setting and got the best results, but they were still bland compared again to my 5 year old Gateway monitor. I have just decided that I will stick with this for a year or so until I can find a better monitor (wont be hard I would imagine). Was not happy with my purchase but we need two monitors, and my wife has the 5 year old "good one" now. Maybe I can trick her into taking this one!
