An improvement over the predecessor

Samsung SyncMaster P2770HD 68.6 cm (27 inch) TFT Monitor (VGA, response time 5ms, TV tuner) Black Rose (Personal Computers)

Customer Review

I am three weeks SyncMaster P2770HD and the owner had previously a T260HD from the same manufacturer. I mention this because I am certainly not the only one who is considering such a switch. My main focus is on the monitor function, since I am an author and I spend about 14 hours a day in front of the thing.

The main reasons for my change were:
1. I was unhappy with the combination of contrast and viewing angle
2. I wanted a built-in cable tuner for HD TV (DVB-C)

Contrast:
The has improved significantly and does by default when writing on PC almost in the eyes hurt. Fortunately, the menu holds a veritable flood of practical and clear settings ready, so really everyone should find his optimal picture. Who wants to set himself etc. not color temperature, font sharpness, contrast, also can choose one of the preconfigured profiles.

Viewing angle:
Here was significantly reworked in comparison to its predecessor. The biggest drawback is however remained: diagonal system (keyword: watching TV in bed) dark image areas are resolved not colored, but shown as a black spot.

Mobility (turning / swiveling):
Since you have saved unfortunately tidy. In short - no more and the thing can be turned. I ordered immediately one movable wall bracket in the Amazon and get rid of this soon also evaluate.

HD-TV:
This convinces! Granted, the speakers are not a revelation, but I did not expect. Tuning and automatic configuration can be operated quickly and without description. Unpack - connect - switch on - Start Scan - look :-)

Style:
What can I say? Look at the photos! He is just as pretty, as in the picture. An amusing detail: The sensor keys (illuminated in red) are visible only if you drauftappst. In addition, they thread a front to the side and out. If you liked Knight Rider, also like this Samsung :-)

HDMI:
Negative striking that the HDMI port can no longer be used for the PC. Anyone who tries that gets a terrible pixelated image. Information of Samsung: ". This is not a mistake that should be so Please use a DVI cable to connect to your PC." So if you have invested in a better graphics card with HDMI audio support: wrong device!

On Time:
In the previous, I was often unsure whether the device has crashed (again), or simply just was not done with "waking up". This bug occurs (so far) not to, so I assume that you have corrected it. A positive feature is that the switching generally goes much faster.

Conclusion:
I would buy the device again, but I hope that I do not have that. My request to Samsung: Lie down in bed, trying to watch a movie (from below) on this monitor - now I mean not with much lighter skin ;-)
It does not work? That's right! But would not it be fine if you manage to do it until the next time?
