    The HP U28 4K HDR Monitor is a whiz at handling the sRGB color space. It's a fair-value pick for content creators and others seeking a midsize panel with good color chops. The U28 is one of a glut of 4K monitors with similar screen size and color coverage.

    The HP U28 4K HDR monitor is a smart buy in that it does what it promises. Its IPS panel is colorful and accurate. Its bright screen makes it a good fit for any room, no matter how sunlit. HDR performance doesn't quite match up, however, and its colors aren't saturated enough.

    • Bright IPS panel
    • Accurate color accuracy
    • Sleek design
    Cons
    • Slightly oversaturated colors
    • No backlight
