HP 23.8 LED Backlit Monitor, low blue light (V241ib, Black)

Great for home office

I needed an external monitor for my M1 MacBook Air, and I discovered (too late) that some manufacturers monitors arent compatible with them. So I went to a more trusted brand, HP, and this monitor plugged right in and worked perfectly. It worked out so well that I bought another one one for my office. (TROUBLESHOOTING NOTE: If you do end up with stability issues, some bargain-basement USB-C port adapters have voltage problems which cause instability with external monitors and peripherals. I had a bad one that I bought here, and nothing worked right until I replaced it with an Anker. When I tested the bad one with this monitor, the monitor went to the black no HDMI signal screen several times an hour. With better port adapters it works perfectly.) 100% satisfied.

After going into year two of Covid work at home mandates, I decided I needed to invest in some better screen options than what I had. These came literally overnight, I set them up in minutes, after letting them warm up from their journey, so very pleased that I opted for an HP product rather than a generic. Bought two of them, and reduced my eye strain almost immediately. I’m sure that if ever I can return to my office on a full-time basis that these will work beautifully in the guestrooms as monitors for our visiting grandchildren to use.

The first one I got didnt work at all. One of colors was not functioning. The replacement works really well. I have had it for a few months now and it is very easy on the eyes and have had no problems whatsoever with it. The colors are nice and clear not too bright or too dark. It has been perfect for my desktop and I can tilt it up or down which is nice.

Does what it is supposed to do. Bought two of these to telework. They work fine for my needs.

Works fantastic. Great picture

I bought three of these for my office. The first one did not turn on right away and I had to jiggle the power cord near the base of the monitor to get it to turn on. Bad way to start - perhaps the first one was defective. The second one turned on right away, but the quality of the screen was very poor. Yes, I was expecting it to be blueish since this model is supposed to be easy on the eyes, but I thought it looked very dim nonetheless. Also, the display was blurry! I put it next to another HP model I had just purchased (1D0J9AA#ABA, which I highly recommend) - and the difference in crispness was obvious. I didnt even bother to open the third monitor. Just going to return all three and purchase the other model.

It makes working much easier on my eyes and is a perfect extension of my tiny laptop screen.

These are perfect budget options for extending or duplicating displays for work. The image is a little too sharp out of the box for the default resolution for reading text but adjusting to soft in the monitors display settings corrects that. Adjusting the brightness did not have any adverse effects on color tint or saturation (even with using blue light filtering glasses, i.e. yellow tint).

Absolutely great for gaming, however I havent found a way to hook up audio to it. I have to use an external bluetooth device. But overall good experience!
