The W2072a 20" Widescreen LED Backlit LCD Computer Display from Hewlett-Packard is a flat-panel monitor with an impressively thin design. The display is backlit with an energy-saving LED light. LED technology is free of the environmental toxins found in traditional CCFL bulbs, and provides more even illumination -- without the need for warm-up time.

The display features a native resolution of 1600 x 900, and also sports a 600:1 contrast ratio, 200cd/m² brightness, 5.0 ms response time, and 72% color gamut support. The display can accept VGA and DVI video signals, as well as audio input for the integrated speakers. Its DVI connector supports HDCP, allowing you to view copy-protected content on the display.

Dazzle Your Visual Experience
Enjoy the impressive facets of the HP W2072a 20" LED-Backit LCD monitor. This sleek 20" monitor looks great on any desktop for a captivating view:
  • Slim 20" display is only about an inch deep -- not accounting for its deeper 6.7" desktop stand, of course
  • Connects via VGA or HDCP-enabled DVI-D, and features integrated speakers
  • Stylish, modern stand with tilt and slide adjustment for a comfortable view
The Wonder of LED
Like the smaller solid state devices coming out lately, LED (Light Emitting Diode) backlighting delivers an array of benefits over CCFL (cold cathode fluorescent lamp) panels:
  • Reduces the number and overall size of components for an exceptionally thin monitor
  • Helps create deeper blacks for high dynamic contrast ratio (3,000,000:1)
  • Enables faster on/off switching time than CCFL panels
  • Helps reduce our environmental impact
Designed with Stunning Screen Appeal
Take in the sharp, detailed, Full HD view while browsing the Internet, working on projects, editing videos, or streaming shows online. High-performance features include:
  • 3,000,000:1 Dynamic Contrast Ratio
  • 1600 x 900 resolution and 16:9 aspect ratio for an impressive view
  • 200 cd/m² brightness rating
  • 5.0 ms response time reduces blur
Green Commitment
Developing more responsible monitors is one way HP strives to help you "go green." The HP W2072a monitor includes an array of environmental features:
  • Mercury-free LED backlighting helps lower power consumption
  • Arsenic-free display glass
  • Recyclable plastics and packaging
  • Ultra-thin profile and detachable base allow smaller packaging to fit more products on a truck, thereby helping to lower fuel use and CO₂ emissions
  • ENERGY STAR 5.0 qualified
  • EPEAT Silver registered
  • SmartWay Transport Partnership
HP Peace of Mind
Backed by award-winning HP worldwide service and support, your needs are covered. The HP monitor has a limited warranty that includes parts, labor, toll-free technical support and real-time chat.

              Nice picture if you are directly in front of the monitor. But the viewing angle is so narrow, especially vertically, that the colors can change if you nod your head.
