Obviously moving from one size to another in the same line of displays can mean a whole different panel manufacturer or issues present on one but not the other - I'll say what I can about this line.
It's no frills and frankly, that's what I want. It has specs you'd care about in a display - variable refresh rate, a high refresh rate, good colors and accuracy, good brightness, multiple stand adjustments, and a good resolution that can be reasonably pushed by mid level GPUs for gaming.
Things that may not be as good - the HDR feature on my 27in is... it's there. It's horrible. Leave it off. Some of the features to help ghosting shouldn't be turned all the way up, but they do help (I think it has 4 levels of settings and 1 or 2 is all you need and beyond that it's worse). The colors and accuracy are very good for this monitor and the price range, but you won't be making Pantone color of the year with it.
Also, what this monitor doesn't have is the nice thing. It doesn't have RGB or some XTREME branding in your face! It doesn't look like a spaceship from your favorite sci-fi novel.
I did try a Gigabyte monitor and REALLY wanted to use the KVM switch function on it, but for some reason Gigabyte decided to invert the typical RGB to BGR and it's absolutely maddening. So few monitors have that still, so can't really say it's a miss. It would be nice though. Many mid-tier monitors and above have USB ports on them. I suppose this is nice, I can't 100% harp on it, but many netted you a total of ONE or two extra USB ports. I suppose having additional placement could help some set ups, but for me most have the USB port in just a bad place to help. And the fact you add a whole other cable for one or two extra USB ports... not worth it. Also, it's more points of failure in something you can easily execute with a USB hub, dock, or just buying a computer with a sufficient number of ports.
Anyway, good deal I say (assuming HP didn't go nuts and use some completely different panel/maker for the 32 over the 27)
Edit - these do have VRR, but are only FreeSync labeled. My Nvidia GPU recognizes it and will run GSync on it. If you HAVE to have a GSync certified (or whatever other tiers they have I can't remember) you will have to look elsewhere. But it is VRR and easily does it.
