At this price point, there is no other monitor that is as accurate or capable as the HP Z27x. We expect to see it populating film editing bays everywhere since nothing else even comes close for less than five figures.Review$1499.00 Amazon...

For average applications a monitor with sRGB colour space is sufficient. If you are working with photos made by more luxurious digital cameras or image processing for other purposes than online publication, a monitor with a wider gamut is no unnecessary l...

We are clearly past the time that a graphic professional had to pay a lot more than 917 pounds / 1,000 euros for a good monitor. Even Eizo has a monitor available around that price point. We do find that the price of the CS2730, as well as the price of th...

There is a type of monitor that does not cost much more than a standard model but does offer much more work space. Experts know about it, but because they don't have a very recognisable name, they are often missed by those looking for a new, affordable di...

Ask any graphics pro what they look for in a monitor and they'll likely put color and/or gray-scale accuracy at the top of the list. With the HP DreamColor Z27X, you get both, as well as inky blacks, loads of features, and an impressive settings menu with...

The HP z27x is loaded with features. Beyond the usual features like a USB hub and multiple inputs it offers multiple color space support for AdobeRGB, DCI, and even Rec. 2020. It goes well beyond this by offering the ability to self-calibrate any of the p...

The uniformity of the display is a big deal to me, though. Professionals need the colors they see on the screen to be accurate, even if they are at the edge of the screen and not in the center. Having to reposition anything you are looking at to the cente...

If you work with video content, you probably spend much of your time staring at a desktop monitor. And you probably wonder if what you see on the screen is an accurate representation of what your content will look like as a finished product. You could alw...

It doesn't quite cover the full DCI-P3 color gamut, though you'll have to pay considerably more to get that remaining 1.2 percent of coverage. The 7 millisecond response rate is less impressive than the other specs...

The HP DreamColor Z27x packs a lot into a $1,499 studio monitor. Unless you're willing to pay six figures for your new monitor, it's currently the best option for critical color work. And it's chock full of the kinds of features that a large animation stu...

I'm always excited doing display reviews because I'm such a screen-queen. When teaching in a lab with only a single monitor, I bristle and break into a sweat digging through stacked-up windows, stepping all over everything, tripping over my own cursor. Bu...
