Rating: - 5 months later and dark grey lines appear
I rotated the monitor, and black lines went away but for how long ? Not acceptable for a brand like Samsung. Monitor does have 3 year warranty, but from what I read on here, it's gonna take me a while to get a replacement and even then i might to need to replace it. Stay away from it, go buy a Dell monitor. My 18 inches flat Dell monitor from October 2002 is still working flawlessly. Even my Digiview from early 90's never had dark grey lines...
I'll post an update soon.
Rating: - Great monitor with some idiotic design choices.
Let me start by saying that I really do like this monitor. The size and resolution (WUXGA) are perfect if you do a lot of programming or any other activity that requires a large number of open windows. Color reproduction seems fine and it arrived with no dead pixels. I've seen complaints about the viewing angle, but haven't had much of a problem with it.

I have called numerous times and they promised a supervisor would call me back each time, but none ever does. I have never seen customer ... Read More
Rating: - VERY IMPRESSED
JUMPING FROM A JUMBO CRT TO THIS FLAT WIDE SCREEN OF COURSE WAS 1 LIGHT YEAR OF PROGRESS BUT THE QUALITY OF THIS MONITOR HAS ALLOWED ME TO ACCOMPLISH MORE TASKS THAN BEFORE AND IT CONSUMES LESS SPACE THAN MY LAST MONITOR. THE PICTURE QUALITY IS EXCELLENT AND YOU HAVE A CHOICE OF ANALOG OR DIGITAL. THE PRICE ROCKS OUT!! BUY IT FROM AMAZON THOUGH!!!!!!
Rating: - Worked great.. for a while. Their service is POOR!
Others have written extensively about the technical aspects of this monitor. I bought mine for the office back in the fall of 2007. Now, 10 months later the screen is flickering and has more red specks than a first grader with chicken pox.
The brightness and color of the monitor were great right up until it went south on my with less than a year of use. Is quality control a thing of the past? While I enjoyed the monitor while it worked I will be shopping for a brand with better quality while ... Read More
