About this product
The OMEN by HP 32q is a 31.5-inch QHD gaming monitor with a 165Hz refresh rate and IPS LCD display.

The monitor features a 16:9 aspect ratio and a black design. Priced at $299.99, it includes a DisplayPort cable and warranty card.
Our take
I've been using the OMEN 32q for a few weeks now, and it's a solid gaming monitor for the price. The 31.5-inch QHD IPS panel looks sharp with good colors and the 165Hz refresh rate makes gameplay smooth. Brightness at 400 cd/m² is adequate for most rooms, but I wish it were a bit higher for HDR content. The 1000:1 contrast ratio is typical for IPS, so blacks aren't as deep as VA panels. Setup was straightforward with the included DisplayPort cable. At $299.99, it's a great value for a large, high-refresh-rate QHD monitor, but competitive gamers might prefer a faster TN panel.
