Customer Review

Hello There.

First, I want to say to a couple of points on this monitor something:

RTA: RTA is a function to more realistic and fluid display of motion. Almost as a support to the fast 2 ms response time. Every current monitor manufacturer has, or equivalent integrated under a different name in its devices. This feature is quite useful, especially with players. The so-called. "Ghosting" is only a slight pink effect that can be seen in exceptional cases. He does not, as mentioned by the previous speaker, often, but rather very rare and in Windows even not at all. I run a fast variant of ATI 700 series.

Included Programs: The programs are useless. They are a nice gimmick, but the program for monitor adjustment and color adjustment is not necessary. It can be set easily via OSD menu directly on the monitor itself.

Preferences: There are 6 presets and an individual profile that you can directly select on the monitor. It makes sense these are Text, Internet, Movie and Game. My advice is: Make the image on film and make it both contrast and brightness to about 60 - 70%.

Necessities: Operate as a Windows-resolution and game resolution min 1024x768, optimal picture at 1280x1024.

Picture: The picture is very good. That sums it all up. The colors are better than that of a tube. The contrast is reflected in dark images, in which one can now better identify deep differences.

Has a disadvantage but the device (like all the 19 'TFTs). Since the image is huge (21 'tube) are the upper and lower margin slightly brightened. The falls on only when almost complete black image. Disturbing but it is not all, because it is a small area.

Loss of speed has not this TFT.

Up & Connectivity: The TFT comes in 2 parts. Screen and foot. Installation is very simple. Optional DVI or VGA. Image quality in both very good.

. Design and possibly "quirks": In principle it is technically at this monitor as well as to the 931 BF, only that is designed this version much better. The blue power light interferes in any way. A buzz or hum, as sometimes occurred in 930 BF, can not be determined. Also no pixel errors.

Plus points:

+ Design

+ DVI + VGA

+ Good colors

+ Fast

+ Easy

+ Low power consumption and low heat production (not interested now, but in the summer it will regret CRT New buyers)

+ High resolution

Criticisms:

- Top and bottom margins in very dark or black image brightens

- RTA can not be permanently shut down (like for some, as represent me, no problem, but it would be no great effort on the part of Samsung have been)

~ Software (too much senseless)

My personal closing remarks and a few useful tips:

To use this monitor makes sense, you should have a reasonably good computer. He should not be older than 3-4 years.

He is very well suited to play, but it should run on 1280x1024, as it can so show its full splendor display. Is the image on niederigen resolutions to disarm (ex. 800x600) simply adjusts the focus for a short time to 100%. Operates it via DVI for optimum presentation. Even though it looks a bit bleak, writing with white background always on "Text" make - Eye Care!

Take your time with the evaluation of the image. At first, it is used to and a clear change.

The colors are much more vibrant and it may take some time before they have their personal attitude found. My Two sets are is: Set to "film" and then turn the brightness to 55 and the contrast to 65. At first I was very skeptical myself, but the benefits are now after 1 week per hand. I especially look forward to the summer, because this device is very cool in See. To a CRT monitor. After a few days they are, like me, very excited about this device. I know what I'm talking, I myself have discovered that gambling on the computer for me as a favorite hobby and my father works in the office. Even he has a crush on this monitor.

One more thing I want to mention in general: If they are generally opposed to TFT monitors, they should consider whether they want that at all. At the end of the unit should always be fun, and does not come here too short. Myself the transition was more difficult, but in the end there is nothing better more than TFT monitors. Look at it, how much space they have at one time on the desk; ) And your wife also has fun with it, now she can finally better wipe around it and you can relish to sleep in a chair without the large monitor wegzuhiefen.
The unit can also easily change again if it does not suit them. Try is announced.

5 * from me.
