Customer Reviews Great picture, but... by .. M. Pierson (LOS ANGELES, CA United States) Nice clear, sharp picture. I have my brightness set at 35%, and it'll work even in the brightest daylight room.
I don't like the single support point, though. When you're pounding away on your keyboard, the monitor tends to rock back and forth. I had to stick a wedge of business cards under one corner to make it stop.
Great buy! by .. C. Strong () Awesome product, crystal clear image, love the size!, so far so good. Shipped fine, no delays, would definitely buy again! (maybe I will, and go for a dual setup with my computer....)
great screen by .. littlehock (California, USA) Samsung makes the best products. The colors are so bright and images are so clear. I love this screen.
Great colors, awful blacks... mixed bag by .. Claudio D'Amato (Waverly, IA) GENERAL
This is an excellent monitor with bright, vivid colors and snappy performance. No hint of ghosting with games (of course, given its low response time). It does suffer from defects that plague nearly all LCDs, such as poor black level performance and some light bleeding.
BLACK LEVELS
In my unit, light bleeding was particularly bad on top and bottom. As for black level performance, even after calibration it was quite poor. My Westinghouse 37" 1080p 8ms LCD monitor performs much better in that regard, and that's saying something. Of course, you can't compare a 37" to a 22"... they serve different purposes... but that's indication that the panel Samsung is using to equip these monitors is not top-notch as far as black performance is concerned. This is normal, though, because computer LCD monitors typically shouldn't be used for movie watching. So long as you use this for games (not very dark games...) and common desktop applications, you'll be fine.
INSTALLATION
A snap. Easy to assemble (just RTFM people!). The monitor is very light, which is good, but that's because it's very flimsy, which is bad. Don't shake the table it's on. Just don't. It'll fall. If I didn't have good reflexes, the monitor would've been on the floor twice already. Also, the bundles cables are amazingly short, but that's an industry standard.
LOOKS
It's an eye-catcher, for sure. I especially like the clear plastic bar that runs at the bottom of the monitor and conceals the buttons, so that when the power led is on it reflects quite nicely on the plastic bar. Very future-proof, design-wise. Piano black finish on monitor and stand is also nice, though of course it's a dust and fingerprint magnet. In just one week (and in a rural area, too) the stand was entirely covered with dust. Ah well.
Overall, it's a good 22" monitor with an ideal resolution and response time that displays sharp pictures and text. Just don't expect it to be your primary (or even ONLY) monitor if you expect to do more than everyday computer applications and some gaming.
this monitor can't be beat! by .. Jose Luis Herrera () ok well i got this monitor 5 months ago its vary nice
well as the months go by the monitor looks flawless
the only bad thing i have to say is theirs a buzzing sound.
It not vary loud but it still their
but hears the best thing about this monitor is that it can take a beating.
Well my girlfriend has anger issues well...... while i was gone after i had got her mad she took her anger out on my innocent ,wonderful monitor .i got home to find my monitor in pices on the floor well. I'l skip the other parts and my monitor still work no dead pixels the only thing wrong is that the plastic out side is gone and it looks like a metal skilton.
