I ordered two and received one of each, returned the BOE one and contacted Amazon support and asked for a note to be put on my account to get a REV L0IT111 model with my next order. They said they would do that and I received a LG replacement, not sure if it was just luck, or if they actually have a way to communicate with the warehouse.

It looks like HP prints the panel type on a sticker on the box or the back of the display. If you look through the amazon reviews you'll see pictures of that label. The LG panel is "LIM101" or "LIM111", and the BOE panel is "BIM111"

Quote from TDK0117 :
Mine was on the box next to "Rev"
Mine says Rev. B0BT1121

I assume that means i didn't get the LG one, but honestly i haven't seen anything bad about it so far.

Are there any tests i can run to see if it has problems?

Thanks. Taking the chance. If it arrives with a BOE panel I'll immediately return it. But based on reviews it sounds like it's a lottery and people do still get LG panels.

The BOE panel isn't bad

Maybe not the worst, but why settle for an inferior product at the same price? I do not like to reward businesses when they silently swap core components that absolutely affect the performance of a product. Just make a new SKU already. Same with SSD/NVMe. If you swap a highly rated controller with an inferior one, then at least make a new SKU so people know what they get themselves into.

For someone with bad eyesight and using it for work with reading text, would this be a good size/resolution or should I go with a 32 inch? I'll be using the monitor as a second display from a Windows 10 laptop.

Bought one a few days ago from prime day for $170 it was totally worth it. At $210 is still a good deal imo. So far happy with my purchase. Very responsive and great for both gaming and work for me.

$170, dam, good deal. I was eyeing it on Prime Day, should of jumped on it. Going on Vacation soon so need cash for the trip, otherwise I would be upgrading my 8-year-old 21" monitor....

Evern at $210, this looks like a great deal....

Just got mine from Prime Day in the mail and it says Rev L0IT1111 on the box sticker. I assume this is an LG panel?

... and I lost the panel lottery :-( I guess it's going back before I even open it...

So, I guess, should I take the chances and order another one and hope I get an LG panel, or should I assume the warehouse in my area only gets the ones with the crappy panels?

Thanks. Against my better judgement I did open it. Mine has the BOE panel, REV B0BT1121. And colors and picture seems acceptable. But of course I did find a dead pixel in the left bottom corner... Now I regret opening it. Although dead pixels can happen with any panel of course.

EDIT: Actually found another dead pixel... definitely going back now

Nope! Just make sure your console settings are set accordingly

So the replacement just arrived. This one is a REV L0IT1111 (LG) panel. And no defective pixels Smilie

I do think the colors look a bit better on the LG panel. Not really noticeable with pictures, but text seems to look better. What surprised me though is that the viewing angle is MUCH MUCH better on the LG panel, with very little color distortion.

So, if you're not very picky then I think the BOE panel is acceptable. But the LG panel does appear far superior. What I would expect from a decent IPS panel.

Anyway, I'm glad I returned the flawed unit and I'm very happy I received a replacement with an LG panel.
