How about some actual specs and not just a copy/paste of the press release. You don't say which type/generation of IPS panel it is nor many other essential specs.

Seeing as these are >$400 for the 24" monitor I don't see to many people caring. You can get a 27" 1440p AH-IPS panel for less.

"Both displays provide one-button access to presets including sRGB D65, sRGB D50, Adobe RGB, BT.709, BT.2020 and DCI-P3. "

Hmm the PR people are wrong here, you should be pulling them not printing their wrong assertions.
to be BT.2020 compliment they need to be able to use a Frame frequency (Hz) of 120, 60, 60/1.001, 50, 30, 30/1.001, 25, 24, 24/1.001 as per the UHDTV/UHD-1 3840×2160/UHD-2 7680×4320 BT.2020 http://www.itu.int/dms_pubrec/itu-r/rec/bt/R-REC-BT.2020-0-201208-I!!PDF-E.pdf

So... there isn't the real useful info like DICOM support or gamut percentage for sRGB, AdobeRGB, etc. What gives?

HP has never been affordable when it comes to screens, and will probably never be. I got a 27" QNIX 1440p IPS for only $300. Now that is affordable.

These are for pros who need extremely good color accuracy, not frame rate. The 24" foes 99% of Adobe RGB, and the 27" does 100% of Adobe RGB... I doubt your $300 monitor can do more than 80% of Adobe RGB. In this market segment, these HP monitors are 'affordable'. This market segment exists because a lot of cheaper monitors are not color accurate, or are not color accurate *enough* for things like film and TV effects work (and print media) and everyone's Trinitrons are dying.

Draven35: Here's a 24" at about $440 with 99% Adobe RBG: http://www.tftcentral.co.uk/reviews/dell_u2413.htm. Your point just became irrelevant.

Nice find! note that it is a 30-bit display as well, using a 14-bit LUT... (pretty much the same as these HPs)

 

[c123456]

Not really a nice find. Just took one of the several monitors I know in this performance range and googled it. This was the first of I assume many that I'm sure are far less then the HP monitor. I could've gotten lucky, but I doubt it. HP is just late to the party on this one.

Ironic since IIRC they were first to the party...

I didn't say is always late to the party... just on these particular monitors.
