A line of gaming monitors for 2020 that actually replaced the Omen series and quickly pushed it into the background. This is probably due to the status: the popularity of the Omen series constantly required some kind of tricks, which ultimately influenced the price of the monitor. And no one expected anything from HP X monitors, so they were able to pleasantly surprise. Perhaps the main factor in achieving success was the right balance between the quality of the matrix, price and additional features.


So, almost every member of the HP X family gives the gamer exactly what he needs, without trying to add something else to the little things. The popular 32-inch HP X32 monitor, based on an IPS matrix with 10-bit color depth (8-bit + FRC) and a resolution of 2560x1440 pixels, will help us demonstrate this. It features fast response speed (1ms G2G), high refresh rate (165Hz), and support for AMD FreeSync anti-tearing technology. With an average price of around $ 450, it broadcasts an excellent picture with natural color reproduction (99% sRGB), high contrast and optimal brightness. In addition, it complies with the DisplayHDR 400 standard.

At launch, the HP X series featured 7 similar IPS monitors with 165Hz refresh rate, 1ms response time, AMD FreeSync Premium support, and HP Eye Ease. A little later, the range expanded with new VA monitors, and the total number of models exceeded a dozen. Resolution is usually tied to the diagonal of the display: Full HD is most often found in 24-inch devices, and 2K remains the prerogative of the bulkier 27- and 32-inch devices. 4K resolution is rare. It is usually used in 34-inch monitors such as HP X34. Plus, many HP X models support HDR content and boast TÜV Rheinland quality assurance. The latter is more common to see in office rather than gaming monitors. But who said that gamers do not get tired eyes?
