5.0 out of 5 stars Great monitor + 75Hz + HOW TO FIX LOW VOLUME SOUND
Reviewed in the United States on December 10, 2020

This HP 24mh monitor has a clear, crisp display and is the perfect size for desktop use (not too big, not too small). It accepts both HDMI and DisplayPort inputs (and even VGA for old school PCs). While Windows will select 60Hz refresh rate by default, you can go into Windows' display settings and select 75Hz refresh rate for this monitor. The 75Hz refresh rate really does help smooth out motion. You should also go into the monitor's "Image" menu setting and set Response Time to Level 3 which provides the best VSYNC performance. One of the best features that places this monitor above and beyond its price range is the 90-degree rotating screen, height adjustment, and swiveling base. The stand is rock-solid without any wobble. The speakers are just fine once you discover the menu control I explain below:
HOW TO FIX LOW VOLUME SOUND: The built-in speakers are better than some reviewers indicate. I believe most people don't discover that the monitor menu has its own volume control that's set to 50% volume by factory default. If you just connect this monitor to the PC you'll automatically get sound through the HP speakers via HDMI or DisplayPort (you only have to use the separate audio cable when using the VGA input). But no matter how high you turn up your PC volume control, you'll only get 50% volume from the monitor's speakers which is why people complain about low volume. To fix this, all you need to do is go to the "Management" tab of the monitor menu, select "Audio", and then turn up the volume control from 50 (default) to 100 and you'll find the monitor speakers are plenty loud. After that, you'll only have to use your PC volume control as normal.
This is a great quality monitor with features beyond its price range. Fantastic value, HP!
ADDITIONAL NOTE: HP sells an identical monitor to the HP 24mh under the model P24h. The only difference is that the P24h has a black plastic logo strip along the bottom instead of silver like the 24mh. Everything else is identical (specs, speakers, height adjustable stand, etc.) plus the P24h comes with both an HDMI cable and a DisplayPort cable.

I bought this monitor for my laptop in December 2020 for $109.99 when it first came out. I read the specs on it and new it was a good all-around monitor. Picture & Screen quality 5 Stars, as for gaming I can not say.
Now in July 2023 it is on sale for $122.61 so I just ordered another one for my wife's laptop. OH and it has speakers on the back of it that are as good as laptop speakers.
HP is a great name that makes great stuff for a reasonable price. My personal opinion is that this monitor is better than the one that is about to replace it by far and @ 1/2 the cost. Sorry HP.
This is the newer model I speak of - "HP 24" M24f Monitor with 3-Sided Micro-Edge Bezel, Silver and Black - 23.8" FHD (1920 x 1080) IPS Diagonal Display, AMD FreeSync 99% sRGB Color Gamut, VGA and 1 HDMI Ports, BROAG USB Extension Cable"
NO speakers & why does it need a BROAG USB Extension Cable? As far I have read in the specs there is no USB hub/port on this new monitor.
That is just my opinion - if you are looking for a great dependable monitor with a great picture and speakers @ a GREAT price. Buy this monitor. Sorry again HP but I just could not believe it when I seen it on sale for this low price. I think they are going to retire this model because it is TO GOOD - Just my personal opinion again.

Replaced an old Acer monitor, and this HP was a huge upgrade in picture quality! Almost wishing we had bought two to go side-by-side and junk our remaining Dell monitor. Can't really speak to the gaming capabilities as we're not gamers. The built in speakers are better than I expected, have a nice surround sound quality. Would not rely on them if you're a serious music person, but for home office use they more than do the job.

This monitor is easy to set up and tune to your liking and the picture is great. The speakers are very good for being built in to the monitor which works good for my limited space. I use it for daily use and limited gaming but it works great for my needs.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great value for the features

I selected this monitor because it has both HDMI and DisplayPort inputs, (it also has VGA, but I'll never use it) has a stand that will rotate to 90, allows for VESA mounting without blocking inputs, is 24" diag. with small bezels, is 1920x1080, and is an established brand. It is all of these, no problem. What you also get is tool-free installation (nice to have even if you have plenty of tools), and cables! I expect a power cord with anything that uses power, but I did not expect an HDMI cable. It did not come with a DisplayPort cable, but I hooked one (of the two I bought) via miniDP, and a full-sized cable would have just gone into the parts pile. Six-foot HDMI cables are a great item to have laying around.
It also came with an 1/8" stereo patch cable for analog audio. I saw the description about speakers, but didn't intend to use that feature. I didn't even hook up the cable. What surprised me was when the monitor I hooked up via HDMI started playing sound from the laptop. This feature does not seem to be mentioned anywhere in this product description, nor even in the user manual, but this thing does HDMI audio extraction! I haven't yet tried, but I think you could hook up a Chromecast and get the full audio/video experience. That said, there does not seem to be much of an amplifier -- it's not loud, even with the volume cranked all the way up on the PC (there is no on-monitor volume control). In any case, it's a nice bonus. I didn't buy this thing for the speakers, but their presence doesn't bother me. The display portion of the monitor is fairly thin. The speakers do add a bit of girth, but no more than you would have from a similarly-featured (no audio) 24" monitor from a few years ago. Same goes for weight. I generally use Dell 24" monitors, and this HP model holds up well against the Dell models that are significantly more expensive (and have not dropped features like VESA mounting and 90 rotating base support).
Bottom line: I'm thrilled to get a high quality 24" 1920x1080 monitor with VESA mounting, 90 rotating base, and both HDMI and DisplayPort, and even giddy about the included HDMI cable and speakers, all for $110.

Like many people, my wife has been working at home during the pandemic. She's got a nice ThinkPad and I provided her with a Shure MV51 microphone to give her that big radio voice in Zoom meetings, and a USB Docking station (Plugable brand) which as the capability of dual 4K monitors, so I decided to buy this HP monitor to compliment the 10 year old 22" ASUS HDMI monitor she had been using. Well, I was totally blown away at how monitor technology has advanced. The resolution on the monitors is the same (1080p) but if you click on the photo, you'll see that the black levels on the new monitor just blow the old one away. This is the reason why Plasma displays dominated high end TV for a while because LCD displays could not deliver the contrast ratios for home theater. Granted, if you're just working on an Excel spreadsheet, reading email or in a Zoom meeting, the difference doesn't matter much. But if you want to take a lunch break and watch a 20 minute episode of your favorite TV show on Hulu, the difference is obvious. I did not give this a rating for gaming, as this wasn't tested and it's not a gaming monitor to begin with. Another nice feature is that it is height adjustable, so no more putting your monitor on a stack of books to raise it a couple of inches. I does have speakers that play through the HDMI input, but they are not as loud as a typical phone. The speakers are good enough for viewing a video or doing a Zoom meeting in a quiet environment, but that's about it. Because the border around the screen is so thin, expect any webcam to intrude a little on the top of the screen. It also uses a standard PC power cord and not a "wall wart" power supply. Many new monitors are moving towards this and I don't know if it is a blessing or a curse. The upside is that you can use a standard power cord and not have an external power power supply hanging under your desk. The downside is that if the power supply carps out, you can't replace it - you have it repaired (highly unlikely these days) or replace the entire monitor.

I am writing this review specifically for one major reason. Tech reviewers on YouTube and elsewhere are wont to tell you that a 27" 1440p monitor is now the "sweet spot" and should now be the standard monitor size for work and gaming. A few will tell you they can't use anything less than a 32" monitor. Well, I have a 32" monitor and I've tried a 27" monitor too. Actually I recently bought two 27" monitors, but I quickly returned them. My 32" monitor is in one of my bedrooms, and I use it every now and then.
Is a 24" monitor big enough for work and play? YES. Plenty! Some folks use a 13" laptop for all their computer tasks. The biggest laptop in the world at this moment is the Acer Predator 21X, which has a curved 21" screen. So, everyone who uses a laptop for their computer tasks (and there a many, very many people who work this way), do so on computer screens less then a 24" monitor. As far as I know, there are no monitors at my place of work bigger than 24". In one Gadget Review article, Lawrence Bonk wrote, "Professional gamers nearly always use 24-inch monitors instead of larger monitors."
Before I go further, let me quickly say that a 24" 1080p monitor may very well be the perfect size for any type of task you perform on a computer. It has plenty of screen real estate, and it is not overwhelming. Monitors of this size are cheaper too. A 24" monitor doesn't have much of the wasted spaces I found on my 27" 1440p monitors.
This 24" HP monitor has two built-in speakers (thank you, HP!). Yes, I often connect my PC via Bluetooth to my JBL Partybox 310, but I love that I have an option of using the speakers in my monitor.
I did not like how texts appeared on my 27" 1440p monitors. Because of the higher pixel density, the texts were smaller than they appeared on this HP monitor, forcing me to scale up text and picture sizes on the 27" monitors. Without even tweaking the settings on this 24" monitor, pictures and texts were just right. I also played some videos on both the 27" 1440p monitor and this 24" 1080p monitor. And frankly, the quality was either practically the same on both or even better on this 24" 1080p monitor.
I don't game. I use my computer for everyday, ordinary tasks (emails, study, paying bills, shopping, VoIP calls, video calls, video conferencing, work-related tasks, web surfing, playing music, and watching videos and movies). I can report confidently that not only is this 24" monitor adequate for these tasks, I also prefer this monitor to the 27" 1440p monitor (which I have already returned).
Presently, I use two of this 24" monitors in an "Extend these displays," dual monitor setup. I love it, but just one monitor would have been adequate for my needs. Some bloggers are adamant that having three monitors is the best for productivity, but I found that to be counterproductive. Not only does a three-monitor setup require more desk space, it also becomes a distraction. I kept asking myself, "What should I display on the third monitor?" The third monitor was totally dispensable.

returned a different model from a different company yesterday, it was AWFUL!, and I had a HP that finally died so I went back to the HP brand, now mind you my other one was over 15 years old so I was used to the lighting on it, these are new and they are made a little differently regarding lighting, I'm older so the bright white is hard on my eyes and it gives me headaches, I do find the lettering a little grainy , I do wish it was a little clearer, the controls to adjust the coloring is easy to do on this monitor. it does come with a quick start up guide, but you will have to go onto the HP website to get the instructions to use the controls. Would I buy this again???? yes, yes I would. I can't say about gaming quality, but I think it would be just fine.

Good value. The only thing I don't like is that it takes a few seconds longer to come on than prior monitors have.

I am not using this as a gaming monitor, just as a larger screen for my laptop and I am very happy with it. I do CAD work and am impressed.
