For those who are now “working from home”, this may be a suitable deal for you.

HP have two “work from home” bundles of monitors that are in stock currently at a pretty decent price imo.

out of stock Essential Work From Home Bundle 1 $495.51
1 x HP E243D 24” Monitor FHD with built in docking station, built in webcam and USB-C
1 x HP E243 24” monitor FHD (daisy chain to master screen via USB-C)
1 X HP slim wireless keyboard and mouse
1 x 90w Smart AC Power Supply

Out of stock Essential Work From Home Bundle 2 $783.52
1 x HP E344C 34” curved WQHD monitor
1 x HP Thunderbolt Dock 120w G2
1 X HP slim wireless keyboard and mouse
1 x 90w Smart AC Power Supply

Well priced, in stock and good setups for working from home.

Yes these probably suck for gaming, FHD isn’t a preferred resolution, refresh isn’t great and the 34”panel is budget SVA….but if you need to work from home, these are pretty sharply priced.

The web page sucks, and you can’t link to these bundles directly. Scroll through and you’ll find them. Chat bot chick said both are in stock with 2-4 day delivery in Sydney.

USB-C was the decider in these for a single connection from work laptop to screen. We have the 2 screen solution at work, and it’s a great office setup. My understanding is that this is inline with corporate pricing for these.

Hope this helps some people out.

    Cant get the individual pages to load for some reason?

    • dmorg78 on 26/03/2020 - 14:53

      Correct, they don’t. Weird ass shit going on with them.

  • kampret on 26/03/2020 - 15:01

    I can only see a single monitor in this bundle

  • scrimshaw on 26/03/2020 - 15:11

    The HP EliteDisplay E243D with integrated laptop dock and webcam is very expensive just by itself — it's a $500 monitor according to static ice. It's also not in stock on the HP website.

    I strongly doubt this bundle gives you two monitors— you'll most likely get the basic variant (HP E243) that doesn't have many bells and whistles. Or it's likely you will get the E243D but not two monitors… Probably contact HP before you buy to avoid dissapointment.

    • dmorg78 on 26/03/2020 - 15:14

      The retail price is expensive. HP can set pricing at whatever they want. Invoice is quite clear on what will be received.

        No arguing with the invoice! Whilst not the best monitors in town, for the average office worker, this is a good deal.

          Agreed. I fill the “average office worker” bill these days and these will do the job well. Not to mention both are tax deductible and 2.5% cash back from CR/SB

  • incipient on 26/03/2020 - 15:14

    You can daisy chain displays via USB 3.1 over USB C? (I know/am quite sure TB3 can do it as it supports DP MST). Or is this some strange HP specific connection?

    • scrimshaw on 26/03/2020 - 15:17

      https://store.hp.com/us/en/tech-takes/how-to-daisy-chain-mon…

      HP EliteDisplay E243d 23.8-inch docking monitor
      "This is the first HP display that’s ready-made for daisy-chaining. It’s equipped with a DisplayPort In port, and it also features a USB-C port with Alt Mode. Alt Mode is a USB-C feature that’s able to send data in other video port formats, so you can use it here in place of the traditional DisplayPort In [1]."

  • jace88 on 26/03/2020 - 15:20

    Just to clarify is the AC adaptor intended to plug into the dock, and then through USB C charge your laptop as well?

    • dmorg78 on 26/03/2020 - 15:21

      I’m hoping so. I’ll find out when I get it.

        I think it's a really good deal and if I had space/needed the monitor I'd go for it. 24" isn't huge, but two of them is sufficient and I love how tidy it looks from watching the promo video on Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yyToZ3Yvbag

        Unfortunately I have a 49" monitor already, and my wife's company let them take home a 27" monitor so feels like we don't really need it otherwise I would've jumped on this!

  • jesseboy89 on 26/03/2020 - 15:30

    Couldn't order it on my phone, but did it on my desktop. Seems to be a great deal

  • TightTerry on 26/03/2020 - 15:30

      Ouch! Hope it comes in sooner man.

      • TightTerry on 26/03/2020 - 15:46

        So I just called them and the only item that is not in stock is the wireless keyboard and mouse, which is handy as I have some alternatives. Both monitors and the ac cord are in stock and can be shipped out ASAP. So good result.

      It should show Bundle 1 (which itself has a monitor in it) + extra monitor + other things. Deal is still going.

  • TightTerry on 26/03/2020 - 15:49

    Stupid question - assuming these can be easily mounted onto a monitor arm?

    • dmorg78 on 26/03/2020 - 15:56

      Should be a standard VESA Mount, so imagine it should be straight forward.

  • venomx2 on 26/03/2020 - 15:58

    Had one in my cart too. Seems the product has been taken off the site but managed to check out.
    Invoice definitely states two monitors. Good deal OP.

    Horrendous website though… Like. Terrible.

    Anyone had any shipping emails yet?

    • dmorg78 on 27/03/2020 - 11:01

      Mine has progressed and order is showing it will be split shipping. It hasn't been shipped as yet.

      • TightTerry on 27/03/2020 - 11:14

        did you recieve an email? how did you look up your order?

        • dmorg78 on 27/03/2020 - 11:18

          when I ordered i created an HP account. I can see my order in the portal.

          • TightTerry on 27/03/2020 - 11:26

            @dmorg78: yeah i created an account now under the same email i used for my order - i notice now they have the 2 monitors in the first order which has progressed and the second order has the keyboard, mouse and adaptor.

            Hoping you dont need the adaptor to use the monitors?

            • kampret on 27/03/2020 - 11:27

              @TightTerry: This my question also, as we are on the same situation.

    My two monitors arrived as well. I've done a quick setup before getting back to work. Both are working perfectly, linked via Displayport.

    Currently I'm using power from the monitor as it isn't charging my HP laptop via USB-C. Probably a setting to change somewhere tonight it my guess.

    Now I really don't know what the other power supply is for.

    34" scheduled to arrive on Thursday.

    • raydotron on 01/04/2020 - 20:47

      Mine arrived today after ordering Friday night and I'm in the same boat, wondering WTF the separate AC adaptor is for?!

      My Lenovo laptop is charging via USB C from the monitor so not sure what the point is of the additional AC adaptor that is yet to ship? It seems redundant?

  • dmorg78 on 30/03/2020 - 15:11

    the #1 bundle is back on the website again for anyone that missed it. 5-10 day wait.

    • spade16 on 30/03/2020 - 15:37

  • kampret on 31/03/2020 - 08:29

    I got my two monitors yesterday and now looking for a VESA desk mount. Any recommendation?

  • lauriea on 31/03/2020 - 09:16

    Not sure if a stupid question, but would it be possible to connect a system like this to a laptop without USB-C? Would there be some sort of USB-C to USB-3 adaptor to provide the same function?

    Also hoping this bundle comes back into stock.

    • TightTerry on 31/03/2020 - 09:30

      There are plenty of out ports on the back of both these monitors, hdmi, displayport, vga. im sure there is an adapter if you wanted just the one connection as well.

  • TightTerry on 31/03/2020 - 11:14

    So ive got the dual monitors setup, very easy - ive got them connected together with the display port cable (im assuming you can also connect them together via a HDMI cable?), When using my Dell work laptop it connects up easily with just the usb-C cable - laptop is charging and 3 monitors are displaying as separate displays, perfect.

    My only annoyance so far is when i try and connect up my Macbook pro via the USB-C connection, everything works except the 2x HP monitors are recognized as only 1 display (ie the display on the 2 monitors is duplicated) so its showing only 2 screens in display settings, wondering if there is a way for the mac to recognize the monitors as separate. I have a workaround and that is un-chain the 2 monitors and connect one into my mac via the usb-c connection and the other in via HDMI. A little annoying as now i have 2 inputs for my mac and i have to unchain the monitors at the back before use.

    Any idea if there is any software i can try and install to get the mac to recognize 3 displays? - or maybe the mac just doesn't like daisy chaining the monitors.

    • dmorg78 on 31/03/2020 - 11:25

      Just did a quick search and it looks like it's not supported on MacOS.

          That's gotta be frustrating.

          I found out why my work laptop won't charge over USB-C too. I have an Elitebook 820 G3, which per the specs she has "USB basic type-C".

          The manual for the E243d states NOTE: Your computer USB Type-C port must be able to support USB Type-C Alt Mode and data and power delivery".

          Guessing in the efforts to keep production costs low, they hamstrung thee laptop.

          Running the DC cable from the monitor is fine though, and I have cable tied the two together.

            @dmorg78: Nice one. Im pretty happy with the setup ive got now, nice and clean and easy to connect in and take my laptop with just the 1 USB-c connection.

            Minor annoyance with the Macs inability to daisy chain however i have an adaptor and the hdmi solution that gets it working.

            Now just need to get a decent monitor arm to get rid of the monitor stands and happy days!

    27/4 on the KB, Mouse, PSU for me. Not sure even HP would know how accurate that is given the state of the world at the moment.

    I received 2 x 24" monitors from order 1. 1 x 34", 1xTB3 Dock, 1 x KB/Mouse from Order 2.

  • kampret on 09/04/2020 - 15:40

    They emailed me to offer a replacement —if I dont want to wait for the keyboard, mouse, and Smart AC Adapter to arrive. But I couldn't think of what replacement it would be.

  • TightTerry on 22/04/2020 - 12:10

    keyboard and mouse came yesterday - im gunna ask for money back for the adaptor/charger as there is no sign of it coming. Its probably worked out well though as i have no need or want for it so if i can get money back or swap it over for something else, win/win.
