Was that the difference between the EZ320A4 and EZ320A8 ?
(hp SKUs do keep getting weirder, don't they)

It's not terribly surprising that they left the model LP3065, nor
is it terribly surprising that only one character changed in the SKU.
When hp changed colors in the 1990s, the monitors went from
A1234A to A1234D.

The BLU change was a minor performance enhancement, with
no change to form, fit and function where one would have
previously used the earlier model, and the altered SKU did
provide version control for anyone consciously avoiding the
old model for a new application needing the gamut.

Contrast this with the LP3065c, which apparently just adds
speakers, but gets a changed branding and a whole new SKU
(GN454AA).

The 'c seems to be out of stock at the moment, and the regular
LP3065 has a bundling deal that expires 30 April. Hard to say
what to make of that in terms of any imminent replacement.

But I do expect any replacement with a scaler to have both a new
SKU and a model branding difference (and probably not just
a letter on the end).

Well - knowing how the subject company works, it may
have been thought of by marketeers as "just a performance
enhancement", and no thought given to whether some more
erudite users may have specific preferences...... "any color
you want, as long as it's black..."

BTW, FWIW, it's typically not just BLU but also filters &
compensation film that had to change - indeed not trivial from
the point of getting it into production with reasonable yield....
Not all panel companies are doing well in providing 92% gamut
ones.... but can't speak directly to this 30" model as "it ain't ours".
