If you know nothing about monitors, or even if you do, you can rest assured that this is the best overall monitor to buy for productivity, gaming, and content viewing.After looking at 100 different options, I kept coming back to it for the following reasons:Pros:PPI - There are very few monitors which can replicate the pixel density of a Mac Retina display. After using, this, I can say the text is super crisp and the images are very bright.Size - Most 4k 144hz monitors go up to 32 in. This was pretty much the only one that could cram all that pixel rate into a monitor which comfortably fits on my desk.Clean Look: The stand and monitor don’t “scream gaming” and fit nicely with the apple aesthestic.Cost: Most other monitors in this price range are $600-800, so that price is fair.Color Accuracy and HDR: Color accuracy is pretty good and HDR pops out a lot when in use.Cons:Size - I personally wanted a monitor in the 24-27 in range, but that may be too small for a lot of people.View Angles - The glare can be a bit intense when viewed from the side, but not a huge issue unles you constantly need to show your screen to other people.Edge Lighting - When HDR is enabled, the low number of edge lit dimming zones become really apparent and cause some distracting lighting. However, it is tolerable and most content is not HDR anyways.HDR: It is technically HDR, but HDR400, meaning it just clears the threshold of qualifying. So it, won’t be good as an OLED monitor. Also, I think this is an Apple issue, but using HDR on SDR content causes the monitor to seem washed out. I recommend using the Native setting and swtiching HDR on in the apple settings for HDR content.Longevity and Reputation: My only concern is that HP Omen monitors have no existed that long, so I can’t speak to longevity and lifespan. But, from what I heard, they are comparable to other manufacturers.So overall, this was the only monitor that met my personal requirements of small size, clean look, high refresh rate, 4k, HDR, and decent price. I am very happy with it. If you don’t want to wait 1-2 years to see the next generation of monitors, I highly reccomend.

Backlighting is amazing, give much needed depth perception for less eye strain. No it’s not mini led but it’s a very Pleasant 3850 x 2168, by 144hz that is usable at it’s highest setting.What a relief on my eyes coming from 2007 technology, can see it improving my vision. I did not know how bad it wasUntil I plugged it in. It likes mac’s very well. I would say this is an investment in your vision. If you struggle with blue light get headaches, always having lighting issues vs screen and canon never get quite right this is the one you have been looking for.I dropped a few hours testing it and adjusting it, it’s a stable performer your eyes say “ahhhh, that’s much much better thank you!”.However as I’m finding out,Mini Led looks great but it wears your eyes out As it’s so bright and perfect it wears you out quicker then a well made UHD LCDI’d like to see 165 hz and with and without mini led with this omen line. That would be a spectacle to behold.

This monitor is incredible. The display is crisp and responsive, it's reliable, and is very easy to use. The best monitor I've ever used.

I'm using this monitor with a mac book pro and PS5. It's awesome. I really can tell the difference from other monitors with lower pixel density. The was one of the selling points for me working on Mac, high pixel density, and I'm glad I bought this monitor that has a great pixel density. It's almost like working on the retina with the iMac. PS5 looks great on this monitor and the refresh rate even helps lower FPS games look smoother (not sure how but it does). I compared PS5 on my OLED and this monitor with hogwarts legacy and fidelity at 30fps looks better on this monitor (minus the blacks you get with OLED). For work, it's a great monitor for the mac book pro and not all monitors like apple products. This one just works well, allows for the display port to kick in at 144hz making editing, moving screens, and multiple windows fly across the screen. I compared a lot of monitors before buying this one and happy with the purchase. A 4k 144hz monitor that packs a punch for a midrange price.

I was really looking forward to use this monitor with my new RTX 4080; however, I was in disbelief when I left to go use the bathroom and the monitor pretty much fell over on itself due to the poorly designed weight distribution on the stand. I was in such utter disappointment by the lack of thought that went into this product, I should’ve known better that this monitor was junk based on the photos, but it wasn’t until I got it that I realized the monitor was about as cheap as the stand. Even though the product was flawed from a manufacturer error, support claims that I’m liable. Literally do not buy this monitor, Center of Mass is extremely flawed and if the stock Stand isn’t stable enough to stand on its own without falling over then I really wouldn’t put much thought into what quality was put into this monitor, this device is straight trash, and taught me a very valuable lesson to never buy any HP consumer products again, always terrible experiences; worst printers, laptops, desktops, and now monitors and at a premium cost, no wonder this thing was on sale. I’m even surprised for being so stupid as to give this monitor a chance. And just horrified by the lack of customer support from what is a billion dollar company. I’ve bought over hundreds of things on Amazon and not once have I had an issue this big. Be sure to not make any small movemen/adjustment or the stand will literally fall over on itself onto the keyboard and fry the entire IPS panel apart
