HP Series 3 Pro 324pf 23.8" Black 2025

The HP Series 3 Pro 324pf is a lightweight 24-inch office monitor with a smooth 100Hz refresh rate. Color performance is among the worst in our database, so skip it for creative work. At the low end of its USD 90 to USD 130 price range, it's a solid budget pick for everyday desk use.

The 100Hz refresh rate is the headline feature here, and it's a nice step up from the standard 60Hz office panels. Scrolling feels smoother and even casual gaming benefits a bit. The 5ms response time with overdrive is fine for everyday use, though competitive gamers will want something faster. Brightness sits at 250 nits, which is adequate for indoor use but struggles near bright windows. The 6-bit+FRC panel technically produces 16.7 million colors, but our color score puts it dead last among comparable monitors. That's not a typo. Color accuracy is a real weak spot.

Against competitors like the ASUS TUF Gaming VG34VQL1B or LG UltraGear 27GS75Q-B, the HP 324pf isn't playing the same game. Those are gaming-focused ultrawides and high-refresh panels with far better color and brightness. The Acer Nitro XV272U and KOORUI 34E6UC also outclass it on specs. But they cost significantly more. The HP's real competition is other budget 24-inch office monitors, and there it holds its own on refresh rate while falling behind on color and ergonomics.

Pricing is all over the place. In the US, you'll see this monitor listed anywhere from USD 90 to USD 130 across six listings. That's a USD 40 spread for the exact same panel. Shop around before you buy. In Canada, the gap is even wider, ranging from CAD 139 to CAD 195. If you're in the US, the lower end of that range makes this a reasonable budget office pick. At the higher end, you're paying too much for what you get.

The HP Series 3 Pro 324pf is a 23.8-inch 1080p IPS monitor aimed squarely at office desks and home setups. It keeps things simple: thin bezels, a 100Hz refresh rate, and a lightweight build that won't dominate your workspace. At 454 grams, it's practically a featherweight in monitor terms.

But the spec sheet tells a mixed story. The display and color scores are rough, landing near the bottom of our database. If you just need a second screen for email, spreadsheets, and the occasional video, it gets the job done. If you care about vibrant colors or creative work, this isn't your monitor.

Skip this if you do any photo editing, video work, or design. The color performance is genuinely bad, one of the worst in our database. Also skip it if you need a bright screen for a sunlit room or if you want height adjustment without buying a separate stand or arm.

This is a basic office monitor with one nice trick: 100Hz. If you spend your day in documents, browsers, and video calls, and you can find it near the USD 90 mark, it's a decent buy. The thin bezels and light weight make it easy to set up and easy on the eyes aesthetically. Just don't expect accurate colors or impressive brightness.
