What customers say about "Key Specs"

HP Z27 4K UHD Display

The HP Z27 4K stands out for the far superior image.
Compared to my old full HD monitor a few years ago, this is a whole other world with 4K resolution.
Perfectly anti-glare screen, fully rotatable even vertically.
4K screen to be able to work from home reporting X-rays and this monitor offers great image quality.
Maximum resolution of 3840x2160 that results, in my opinion somewhat excessive since the elements on screen look too small.

HP Z27N G2 27-Inch Display

A very nice monitor. It’s QHD 2560x1440, and not 4K resolution but otherwise has all the features I was hoping for in a model this year.
Beautiful 27" diagonal and the edges are thin and minimal, this just to configure it in multi monitor mode by siding two or more monitors.
This model is the high resolution of 2560 x 1440, halfway between Full HD and native 4K.
This resolution is particularly appreciated on the 27" and certainly gives much more space in terms of pixels to work.
It is a very remarkable 27", with highly respectable video features.

What customers say about "Display"

HP Z27 4K UHD Display

One of the big issues with IPS screens is backlight bleed, they all have it to some extent, but on this screen it's almost imperceptible.
I cannot overstate just how pleasing the picture quality, in terms of color, sharpness and vibrancy is straight out the box.
It has an IPS panel of good quality, with good, vibrant colors.
Perfect colours, even with factory calibration. However, for my taste, with this color profile the whites turned slightly yellow but easily calibrated.
Very good gray gamut and without any reflection due anti-glare coating.

HP Z27N G2 27-Inch Display

Good colours, and as bright as anyone could wish - I've actually turned the brightness down a bit.
It's an IPS-type monitor, which means the viewing angles are very wide and the colours are rich and accurate.
The 350 cd/m² stand out and push the brightness and contrast decidedly above average.
Despite being an IPS the contrast is very high and the blacks.
The IPS panel is excellent, also useful for graphics and also for gamers.

What customers say about "Features"

HP Z27 4K UHD Display

The monitor and stand are reassuringly solid and weighty with all the height and swivel adjustments you are likely to need.
The stand is very solid and perfectly stable, don't wobble at all.
The monitor is ideal for working, especially with office applications (primarily tables) and CAD systems.
The monitor is a little slow to recover from standby. This when using for work can be annoying.
The only drawback I would put is that it does not have built-in speakers.

HP Z27N G2 27-Inch Display

A nice looking, robust and highly adjustable stand, up-down, tilt and rotate, or the monitor can be VESA mounted.
Amazing feature is its base, very stable, widely adjustable, not forgetting that rotate a 27" upright It's not a small thing.
The mount of this monitor alone is worth most of the cost, as it allows you to orient it, raise it and move it.
The menu for adjustments did not convince me at all, I found it inconvenient.
Sadly, there is no support for G-Sync or FreeSync.

What customers say about "Connectivity"

HP Z27 4K UHD Display

Equipped with DisplayPort, HDMI, USB-C inputs with video.
Many ports, good image, the ability to transfer video via usb type c.
The presence of Usb type C allows you to use the monitor as a light docking station for a laptop.
Through one cable, you can charge the device, transfer video data and connect the usb device.
The main USB-C port due to the support of DP 1.4 makes it possible to create a multi-monitor configuration of at least two 4K monitors.

HP Z27N G2 27-Inch Display

Acts as a USB3 hub, including upstream and downstream usb-c ports, also supporting display input over usb-c.
Has DisplayPort daisy-changing for supporting multiple monitors, and HDMI and DVI inputs.
Inputs are super complete more than you need, from DVI to two Display Port to USB —C 3.1.
There is just everything for convenient connections, I consider it also very versatile, indeed the inputs do not end.
The ports are complete and, in addition to the power supply, there is a DVI-D, HDMI 2.0 and Displayport 1.2.
