Exceeded My Expectations,
The HP 2711x has exceeded my highest expectations. I upgraded from an HP w2207h which I’d had for a few years and was also very happy with it as well. It’s still working fine on another computer now. My primary use is for the 2711x is the post processing of photos with Adobe PhotoShop CS5. The monitor is very bright and can be set between 50 to 60 % brightness and 60 and 70 % contrast without any problem and I find the color reproduction to be the best I’ve seen in this price range. I’ve found most monitor on display in local retailer set to there highest brightness settings just to achieve the same color impact I’m getting from the 2711x in the mentioned ranges on this monitor. In terms of sharpness it’s fantastic the gloss type Bright View screen makes all the difference for me as most other monitors on the market are semi-gloss which I have found detracts from a good image quality when dealing with photos. I use the monitor in a private office environment which allows me control over the ambient lighting in the room so glare is not at all a problem with the bright view screen. The quality of the construction is fine and again is as good as any monitor in this price range. It’s LED, it’s light weight it has all the connectivity you could really need and its 27 inches. No dead pixels, No stuck pixels, It’s worked just fine from the moment I took it out of the box. I’m glad I pick it up and I would recommend it to friends. Blu-Ray play back at 1080P looks great on it as well. I can’t imagine anyone being unhappy with the purchase.

|Excellent monitor,
The monitor is really looks great and big. True that you can’t swivel it much but no real need for most people.
Nice and bright with very little difference on picture color difference where you are sitting.
I was imagining a good monitor but this monitor surpassed my exception’s by a good margin.
No pixel out of place, no dead pixel, graphics look clean and crisp, LED bright enough that I turned it down to 55.
I have DVI for windows 7 machine and font looks great, but I also have it set up setup through HDMI to OS X MacMini and it looks even more crisp when it comes to the font.
You will have no problems liking this monitor but be warned that its big and at first you may wonder did you really need something this big and if you could have gone with a 24 inch version. I can say without a doubt that as nice as the 24 inch is the extra size will not be a disappointment.
Base is sturdy and easy to setup but if you don’t have a good solid desk it will wobble a little if you shake the desk but it will only be a little and it will not fall down. Considering how thin it is this makes sense.
HP has a winner in my eyes when it comes to this monitor.
Games look good and rich in color, movies look very good and black look well black if your doing blu-ray which I am on the PC.

|Don’t even bother with the non LED 27″ monitor,
Really quik I just wanted to come on and review this product. Although I’ve only had it plugged in for a couple hours, iI think I’m 100% satisfied.
No dead pixels, IT’s ULTRA THIN!!! It feels like I could hold it in my lap it is so thin and light.
The AC adapter sits outside of the monitor, which I think is its only downfall. I don’t particularly like the look of cords, and especially big black boxes. There is no audio jack, or at least I haven’t found it.
Set up was easy, it runs cool, I think I’ve gotten over the need to get a 30″ apple cinema display with this monitor. Beautiful!!!
This is my 6th HP minotor. I’m a huge “Bright View” fan. I like my images on the brighter side. The contrasts look excellent. Of course if you aren’t a bright monitor fan then you can turn it down. It’s good to have the option though. Smooth rendering of text…I plan to buy a second one soon and it’s nice to know I can turn these into tv’s when I’ve upgraded my system some day to even bigger monitors as it has an HDMI port.
update
……………………………
I was a little hasty in my original review. Some thing you should know before you buy this monitor:
1. No speakers or audio at all. Kind of a bummer! I hate dealing with extra equipment.
2. No vesa mount. You will have a really hard time trying to figure out how to mount this on a wall mount. Luckiy it is really light weight and you could I suppose use some reay good double sided take (there’s some really good stuff out there) to do the job.
3. Ac adapter on the outside. The kind that 4′ PC cord goes into the black box, then an additional 3′ power cord with plug on the end. HATE those! I like what apple did with their pc cords where the bulky part stays on the wall. I much prefer that set up. You wont have a nice tidy desk with this monitor. BOOO!!!

I still love it though. I did buy a second one.
