You can find Revision Number at the back of the monitor.

If it starts with letter L, it means it is using LG panel.
If it starts with letter B, it means it is using BOE panel.

How do you confirm if these are LG panels? Is it listed on the box ?

Quote from FuschiaRailway805 :
I'm never buying another HP monitor again, I bought a 32in QHD model last year and the VESA mount is absolutely AWFUL. The mount is at the base of the monitor instead of in the center and the bracket is held in place by one janky thumbscrew. If I even look at it funny it starts to wiggle and threaten to come crashing down. Horrible.
Well you're in luck… VESA mount is dead center on this monitor.
Didn't even bother to check before making a comment about one monitors mount, that has absolutely no bearing here?
You do realize monitor mounts are all different, right? My old Omen27 has a stupid plate that attaches to a support sticking out of the monitor, adds like 2'' to the depth, I hate it… but you know what? It has no relevance here either 😉

There's a white sticker on the outside of the box. If you are shipped a BOE/BIM code, the panel is strictly inferior to the LIM/LG code. So you want lim or lg and numbers after it. I tried last time and got the bad panel.

Great deal! I have a gsync monitor and felt limited to nvidia gpus. This will give me more freedom (hence freesync?) in choosing a gpu since I hear gsync works as well

I did check the listing, I'm simply relating my experience with HP monitors so others are aware as I think it is relevant that many have complained about HP VESA mount problems in the past. Of course everyone should do their own research and make their own decisions when purchasing hardware… no need to get passive aggressive about it 🤷🏻
Passive aggressive? This ain't that bro.
Either way, your experience with HP mounts is meaningless here… as is mine.

Just bought one and the Amazon Prime card gives me 10% cash back instead of the usual 5%.

Picked up 2 X32's with similar specs a few months ago and they've been great. Only annoying thing is there is only 1 dp and 1 hdmi.

No USB throughput and some noticeable ghosting compared to similarly priced units (see Samsung and Dell).

Guess i should specify… i picked up the Dell S2721DGF for $199.00… might be worth keeping a look out for that deal again.
