  • is it wall mountable?

  • Internet Explorer, DAFUQ DUDE SERIOUSLY ?

  • PX2370 is much better...!!!

  • @Priyansu18

    why is that??

    i'm looking to buy one

  • hi, anyone willing to help is welcome. I have a benq g2400w monitor and i am looking for something to dual screen with it. Do you think this is a good monitor to do that, if not any recommendations? Thanks in advance

  • is this a good monitor for eyefinity?

  • i just got a 22inch monitor samsung and all i do with it its play ps3 black ops and this thing its amazing my lil bro loves it we play 3 feet away from the monitor u just feel ur in the game

  • why dose the screen look smaller compared to the HP monitors?

  • @Faiz0r 'cause of the frame thickness.

  • @JefesupremoReturns But most gamers will want their display to be as big as possible:) With that in mind, I personally will go for 26-27" or a multi-display setup if my budget allow.

  • @JefesupremoReturns Provided you sit no more than 1 metre away, it should be fine.

  • @JefesupremoReturns For a monitor and you sitting no more than 1 metre away, it is terrific. Sitting any further away, and it will look kinda small.

  • i really need to ask a some1. i wanna FASTTT gaming TV. all i want is a 24 inch with atleast 2 hdmi imput and a audio ouput. a remote so i can switch back and forth without getting up because i want to connect 2 devices. 1 of the devices is a xbox 360. i also want a 2ms response time...so does any1 have any sugest?

  • @shayorshayorshayor Go to Newegg and check out the Samsung BX2431 and BX2450. Those both will fit your needs.

  • awesome

  • For gaming, is LCD better than LED monitor ???

  • The 'Not optimum' issue is a pain in the ass if you are running older games and as far as I know there is no work-around. Other than that the monitor is great and Samsung has great warranty service, had to send this monitor in once for a blow capacitor on the power board -- it took a week and a half total to get it back. Not bad....

  • Why do people rely on these videos from TigerDirectBlog?

    Nothing is bad according to them.... wonder why......

    Yeah, they want to sell it to you asap, no matter if the product is crap or not.

    This monitor has one major flaw; softwarewise.

    Not Optimum Mode Recommended mode ...... ..... Hz.

    Not easy to change and it is hugely annoying.

  • @ChevyVanDude because chuck norris said to buy em?

  • can you hook up a desktop AND a game system with this thing? Or would i have to uplugg one and then plug in the other?

  • LED looks a lot worse than regular backlight LCDs, dunno if it's just me

  • Nice video, is mi Next Purchase for playyyyyyy, very good ! 241,49 €

  • i first tout it was a tv with vga input,but no it,s a monitor with tv funktion.with even digital optional tv..

    i got the ls19cfekf/en model with no manual,there is no still frame button on the remote but there was the pip button on it,but it dit,nt work so after calling the service they first informed me that it only work with dvi and componenttogether ,but it tryed with no luck,so after a recall they told me that it lacks pip function,what a loud of fucking misleading shit.

  • 3:50 lol

  • okay so i just got a 22" Samsung T220 touch of color series Monitor and i was wondering can it do 1080p visuals also i'm jealous now..

  • hahaha I had to kick him in the ass to get a 24inch Monitor !!! hahaha leave the Old Man alone Albert!!

  • I dont get this guy. I havent seen a single review that is not positive about the product. "5 MS IS EXTREMELY EXTREMELY FAST!". No it's not...

    Ofcourse it depends on the avarage ms of the screen but he doesnt say so you can't take that into account. Facts are, 5ms is not fast for a 2010 monitor.

    Also, 20.000:1 contrast ratio isnt that amazing either... I guess they are sponsored by Samsung or something. Please be honest and dare to say something negative about the products you are reviewing!

  • Check out the date of this video please, before being smartass.

  • OK I'm sorry, it's not a 2010 Monitor. You're right about that but still, even in 2008 5ms was still slow.

  • Yeap, you are right. This is a clear promotion of the Samsung company - not an independent POV.

  • 2010? dude this vid was made in 2008..

  • @kidowner I know. If you check out my other comment I said "OK I'm sorry, it's not a 2010 Monitor. You're right about that but still, even in 2008 5ms was still slow".

    Read everything next time please.

  • yea i know. i posted before i saw what was under. sorry

  • @kidowner No problems. Have a nice weekend!

  • Samsung does make the best LCD products to date though. You get what you pay for though, and they are expensive. But you wont regret a purchase of a Samsung LCD product, ever.

  • umm this is a video from 2008 so its not a 2010 monitor meaning 5ms back then was fast

  • 5 ms and no HDMI no thanks.

  • why does it matter about HDMI!

  • Well for one, you can hook up many things with HDMI like the 360/PS3.

  • cant you just use the VGA port for things like that, or even a dvi>hdmi... i dont think its a big item to worry about...

  • It's the best way to connect to HD. For me it's a must.

  • but this has a res of 1920x1200! as for HD, DVI vs HDMI no difference. If it was a 1080p resolution then i would agree.

  • Just like IflashI said. DVI and HDMI will produce the same picture. There is no need to transfer audio to this monitor which is the only benefit you would get from an HDMI cable.

  • @pnut84 - well just buy an adaptor DVI>HDMI

  • If you are going to watch stuff on it like a TV then get a HDTV...

  • Get the 2443BW instead. It has a better looking frame without that glossy and transparent shit and ugly buttons.

    "Your whole world will change, if you buy the next trendy gadget with some nice electronics and LED and stuff!" I love this reviews that are actually just advertising. So listen to this man and go for it!

  • Get the HAS version as well. It can pivot (rotate 90 degrees), swivel and height adjustable.

  • whats with the flowers on the back thats ugly why would they put that there, i would just go with one of gateways 23 inch monitors

  • Alberto!

  • I have this. High resolution is anoying, videos and pictures get smaller, regular print size turns into fine print so I keep the resolution at 1400x900. This monitor is good but no good for serious graphics work. The top the of the screen is darker then the bottom, the viewing angle is horrible, changes the color and contrast just by moving your head a couple inches. Good for a general purpose though.

  • Yea thats what i was worried about. I haev similar experience with my 17inch samsung lcd. Which one do you think is really good. I'm looking at 2494HM any good?

  • does monitors loses its sharpness?

  • 1920x1200 FTW!

  • Havent watched it all but doesnt mention the old TN panel technology. ips all the way for viewing angles and colour

  • Todays TN panels are more than adequate for everything including movies and games, IPS panels are more for color accuracy for photography, for mainstream consumer use the TN panels of today are more than sufficient not to mention much more affordable compared to IPS panels IMO =]

  • I'm looking to buy a LG W2452TX, but it only has 900:1 contrast ratio but it makes up for having 400cd/m2. Is it worth it?

  • whitch are the dimensions of this LCD?

  • how much is this in australian dollars australian market?

  • Are there 2560x1600 24" monitors? Or are they for 25" and more?

    Isn't 1920x1200 FullHD, used in 42" TVs?

  • Samsung should have icluded an HDMI input in it.

  • I just picked this one up as an exchange for my defective 226BW (22") and couldn't be happier. Several picture customizations, really crisp colors, bright/contrast excellent, excellent resolution, excellent frame, 16:10, the stand is perfect (I don't need swivel or height adjustments; tilt is great). I'd recommend this product to others.

  • 1920 x 1080 is just fine for me :)

  • same here

  • I don't get why people would get 1920x1200 when it isn't a 16:9 format i'm new with computers and that might be a really stupid question but is there any gain in getting a 1920x1200 vs getting a 1920x1080

  • i know right?

  • 16:9 formats are actually the standard for HDTVs. When it comes to monitors I can safely say that I saw an equal amount of people use 16:9 and 16:10.

    The obvious benefit is that you get a slightly higher resolution, but at the same time you get a higher picture clarity (nvidia claims you get 2 times the picture clarity of 1080p but that's slight exagerration on their part :p). Nvidia has been investing on game developers to make 1920x1200 THE standard in gaming as well.

  • Oh and it all varies according to each person's preferences as well. I like the 'closer to square' shaped and larger16:10 format more.

  • It's preference, if you don't feel you need it that's fine.

    I personally prefer 1920x1200, the more pixels the better for me. 1920x1200 has also been around for longer with monitors so I think more older games are likely to support it. And if you're looking at pictures, a 1600x1200 picture (from 4:3 monitors) will be viewable without resizing.

  • Some people actually use a monitor for work. I prefer the added screen real estate for all the dialog boxes that I have open.

  • you kicked your father in the butt ??

  • Buttons on the side not good.  Plus the buttons are all black with no lighter lettering.

    Base doesn't move that much. Not good. My HP has a much better base.

  • What an awesome resolution!

  • What static contrast ratio is 50,000:1 dynamic contrast ratio? I'm guessing 2,250:1?

  • I have a laptop so how would I connect the monitor to it since the laptop has a monitor attatched to it?

    I want a monitor, prob the one shown in the video because I'm buying a PS3. So... no point in buying a TV when I only want it for gaming...

    Please help, thanks in advance.

  • it comes with a cord WBBianHugo,

    double sided cord one end connects to ur lappie, and one to ur monitor, After that go to your settings and change ur screen properties if you dont know how to do so look it up on youtube :). Btw im doing the same thing your doing, got the monitor just for gaming, much cheaper and nice image

  • I ahve this and had a problem with the base too, but I put butter on it in the end and it went in easily.

  • Comment removed

  • hello im having some trouble with a pnp monitor it's a 37 inch and my pc will not go past 1028x 768 plz help thanks

  • It's probably a 720p HDTV, rather than a proper monitor.

  • no it's full 1080p :[

  • the monitor is great, i have it and its so sharp.

    how the man in the vid said, the fucking base sucks, you need 15minutes to clip them together

  • is this good for high end games?

  • Lol @ the people giving -1, how about you research what this guy is talkinga bout before you click that -1. TN panels are the cheapest ones around. Consumers are buying cheaper and cheaper panels and they dont even know it. look into S-PVA or IPS panels.

  • PVA and IPS panels cost too much for the average consumer. And not all TN panels are bad. Typical TN panels have 800:1-1000:1 contrast ratio, which is okay, but not too good.  You can also get higher end ones with 2000:1-4000:1 contrast ratio, and also with low 2ms response time, which will deliver about the same performance as a mainstream IPS.

  • ,you can see its dark,tell the real story,your a dealer

  • I have this, AWESOME!

  • I got one of those and is not that bright, in fact if you compare this model with others the samsung has the darkest image.

    You forgot to mention the trouble it is to fit the stand, it took me about 30 minutes to put it, almost damaged the monitor in the process... it took me another 30 minutes to take it of

    You also forgot to mention some kind of back plate that you touch the screen makes noise

    Mine malfunction after 3 months of use.

  • is this on amazon?

  • he says double-lu for w

  • TO BIG FOR GAMING

  • Nothing is "too big" for gaming.

  • I agree

  • @wildreams depends how close you are mate!

  • @wildreams Nothing is too big for gaming? It depends how close to the monitor you're sitting.

  • @MichaelDerettef he posted that comment over a year ago. don't you know how stupid that makes your look? (not saying you are stupid, just saying don't respond to very old comments)

  • @wildreams does world of warcraft count as gaming

  • is it best for gaming console?.. specially ps3??

  • You should check out the Samsung 2494hm it has a 50000:1 contrast ratio.

  • Im thinking about this too, wanna to get a monitor for both everyday PC use and PS3 gaming, tell me once you found something u like ok?

    This monitor has a drawback, because it is 1920x1200 it actually has black bars, meaning it will display smaller than an average 1900x1080 of the same diagonal length, 24".

    And it does not have a HDMI port, im not sure about the performance of a adapter.

  • No black bars. I play grid, tdu, with no bars on my 2433bw. Todays games support 1900x1200.

  • But yes you will have bars with some moves. But don't let that hold you back tho.

  • I got a 24inch.... monitor.

  • i got it 2233BW s:

  • how much is it the percentage of the problem of line of dead pixels after a month or so, reading around is quite high..it's the only thing stopping me from the aquire

  • I am hesitating with the LG W2453V and the Samsung 2433BW, but side to side in the store you could see right away a difference. Even if the specs are higher on the LG, The Samsung looked way better.

  • hey naybody now a reasonable 22 or 23 inch that does not have hdmi... i cant get hdmi cuz ... customs duty etc..

  • love, luv, <3 mine!!!!

    just wish it was bigger!!!!!!

    either 28" or maybe a 30".

    Excellent color, and aesthetics!

  • i didn't think your question was dumb. my answer was a joke of sorts. my own monitor is 17 inches. but seriously, you can always sit back further from the monitor, or push it farther away. when its bigger and you can push it farther away, you notice the pixels less and therefore have better quality. unless you have very little space available of course. i can adjust my monitor and my chair to be from 1 up to 4 feet apart

  • i didn't know that its possible to have a monitor that is too big

  • haha..XD..

  • um try a 10000000000000000000 inch O_O jk 75 is too big for me i like 47 thats as big as il get

  • is it 120hz n can it run 3d geforce gaming

  • Will an hd4870 or 4890 work well with this monitor?

  • yea it will even work with the lower 48XX series cards, they will run it at 1920x1200 with your regular windows apps and casual games, with the lower series cards your gonna want to tone the res down on more graphic intensive games like the newest call of duty and BIA hells highway but with a 4870 or 4890 you should be good (nothing will play games like crysis on this cept for two 4890s or 2 4870x2's)

  • 28 inch is the perfect size!

  • my monitors 22"

  • it's prefect for gaming!

    and no it's not too big.... i actually should of gotten a bigger monitor.... = (

    but i love it!!!

  • I GOT MINE :D

    workin on cubase with it really comfort like hell i feel like i live inside the computer lol

  • cubase is what i want it for too

  • awesome monitor

    perfect calibration is:

    brightness:50

    contrast: 60

  • Oh i miss this black shirt! WEAR IT MORE!

  • I sell Eizo LCD

  • set up is no problem... I was able to get a new one!

    def worth it!

    buy it online, and get the best price!

    and set up is really easy!

    anyone can do it!

    Don't worry, this is my 2nd one! each time was just as easy!

  • ima gonna get this baby on sunday

  • mine has problems... there is a dead pixel and a yellow line that is virtical on the right side of the screen...

    it comes and goes...

    I might have to return it to Samsung...

    but it's a good product... somewhat..

  • I need a monitor for my new mac so I might get this, the apple studio display is too deer

  • too deer XD roflmao

  • i just ordered this for my birthday and i can't wait for it to turn up. i read some user comments and herd only good things. now after watching this im really glad i chose this monitor. i can't wait for it to turn up now :D

  • is this a exelent game monitor? :) cuz ill maby buy this 1

  • well he said it was.

  • yea my friend has it and its awesome and big for games so you can see more

    I'm buying it soon I can't wait

  • pls help me what monitor should i buy:

    Samsung SyncMaster T240 or

    Acer H243H (ET.FH3HE.002)

    i would like to play pc games and ps3 games

  • Not this monitor. Without HDMI input, it wouldn't be worth it. Find something with at least one. Also, what graphic card do you use in your computer?

  • I've ordered this (hasn't arrived yet) and am already dreading putting the stand on it,by all accounts quite the horror story.

  • will it work good with EVGA 9800gtx+ ?

  • Of course, lmao! :D

  • I want one, it fits in my room ;D

  • me too

  • Is this monitor kinda same as 2443BW? ... Im buyng the 2443BW ... But im not sure of the quality of it.

  • anyone which is much better t240 or t240hd?

  • Comment removed

  • Comment removed

  • hey guys which is much better t240 or this one?

  • only one word: nice!

  • Does it have the auto adjust button? The one that puts the display in the middle of the screen, without the black parts on edges. Like my current SyncMaster 940N has. I'm thinking of buying this screen. This or 2443BW (Pivot) and another graphics card (to support the greater resolution). I have a hd-4850 (It's pretty good. Handles everything great at 1280x1024). Should I buy another one and connect them with crossfire?

  • i would recomend you to buy another 4850/a 4870 as you can crossfire any card in the 48-series, if you are concidering buying a full HD monitor like this one, and you wanna play the new games out there without lag:)

  • I've just bought another HD4850, but I still have my 19" monitor. So I'm playing at 1280x1024. I've bought another card, because some games lagged. Mostly Fallout 3. But now that I bought another HD4850 it's no better. And now I've also got weird artifacts in Fallout 3 (mostly in the pause menu). Do you think the new card may be faulty?

  • At a lower resolution, such as 1280x1024 - You will find that it is more often the CPU causing the bottleneck, rather than the GPU.

  • i want to see a ps3 or 360 on this

  • Thanks for the helpful advise NSS4d

  • does this monitor come with touch buttons? (dont really mind them). should i purchase this monitor or the ASUS VK246H? the ASUS one is 2ms but more expensive because it comes with webcam. But i really like the Samsung because of its great design. Which one would be better?

    thanks

  • Short answer: Samsung.

    Long answer: Depends on what you're going to do really. Ask yourself if that webcam really is a must, cause those 3 extra ms wont make a huge difference, not even in first person shooters.

  • That Asus is actually I believe 5ms, the 2ms is GtG *gray to gray*

  • this is better and its worth it

    my friend has it and its awesome HD

    now I'm getting it I just can't wait lol

  • wow less than 1 watt. mine does way better no watts. i find turning it off at the plug allows for this

  • If the thing doesnt have speakers, then there is NO reason you would need HDMI input. Digital DVI is exactly the same.

  • is this better then the t240?

  • nah t is better class monitor but this 1 is decent also ;) i just got and it's so awesome

  • so if you can only run 60 hertz on this monitor can u get better then 60 fps?

  • doesnt matter what refresh rate ur using,it doesnt effect yr fps

  • oredered.

  • Anything under 8ms is best because the human eye cant tell if its under 8 if its over u tend to see a dely

  • Yea thats very true

  • His not lieing about the base i just bought it 2day and i was a bitch me and my brother where pushing and shiting our selfs but it didnt brake :) it slips in

  • ur supposed to go into it diagonally and straighten it up once it popps in. i just got this today and it went in no problem with no excessive force
