Finally got mine last night. I ordered from HP US and can confirm that the US version is the same IPS panel as the European version. I haven't had much of a chance to play with it yet, but here are my initial thoughts. Pixels/Defects - So far so good. I haven't noticed any bad or stuck...

The HP is a brand new product that has just started popping up at US retail channels this past week. I'm sure the average price will drop some once more places get them in stock. The Planar has been out for over a year, so of course the price has come down some.

According to the tftcentral review, the HP has the best measured black levels of any IPS panel to date, and great color accuracy once calibrated. The planar has lower input lag and a larger size. It all comes down to what is most important for you. A hardcore FPS gamer might want the Planar...

The Lenovo L220x is the only 22" monitor I am aware of that has a 1920x1200 resolution.

Has anyone in the US actually received this monitor yet? If so, where did you buy from? I am still waiting for HP to ship mine, and I ordered on Sept. 2nd. I am ready to cancel that order and buy from somewhere else if I can verify that someone is actually SHIPPING the monitor. I see a lot of...

CDW is now listing the monitor for $629.99. They say they'll have them in stock in 1-3 days. As for HP.com, I ordered on the 2nd (the day the monitor was added to the US HP store), and it has yet to ship =\

HP doesn't list panel types on the US site, but I spoke with a customer service rep a couple weeks ago who assured me that the US panel is IPS.

$749 is MSRP, $649 is their "Smart buy" price. Basically, they keep the higher priced SKU for business customers who get bulk order discounts (or something like that, not sure exactly how it works), and the "Smart buy" price is what everyone else pays. There is absolutely no difference in the...

The $650 price on the US HP site includes the $100 "Smart buy discount." They quote a shipping date of Sept 4th. Just ordered mine, looks like I should get it Monday.

My 930sb just finally died recently. I'm not sure if this is the same problem you are having, but mine started off with a minor jitter as well. Every few mins, the picture would rapidly shrink and grow a few pixels. After a couple months this turned into half an inch, and it started happening...

Thanks for the pics and videos Steffen, they are very helpful. And welcome to the forums!

Not "yet". Hazro has said they are working on getting a US distributor, but they've been saying that for a long time, so I wouldn't hold my breath.

The HP LP2475w does not have an internal LUT. There are very few monitors with internal LUTs and most of them are professional monitors that cost thousands. The NEC xx90 series (2490, 2690, etc), are the "cheapest" monitors I know of that have internal LUTs.

The LP2475w has no internal LUT. I'm not sure about the Dreamcolor LP2480zw, but HP has just announced a hardware calibrator for the LP2480zw, so maybe it does have one.

Thanks for doing these tests. It sounds like a great monitor, really can't wait to get my hands on one of these.
