I ordered this monitor to replace my wife a few weeks ago, after thorough reading of ratings. I have previously dealt myself with the negative reviews and was therefore skeptical about the device. Even more so was looking forward to the fact that the monitor ran perfectly without any individual settings on the computer my wife (graduate designer). Colors, gamma, angular dependence everything better than you would expect from a monitor in this price range. Since I had an old 16-inch model I came up with the idea to me this great monitor to order again. I have here called my account and placed the same order again. But what a surprise! When unpacking, I realized that the time supplied monitor was not identical to the previous one. The monitor my wife has a uniform black frame delivered for me but one with a red shimmering inner frame. When I put the monitor into operation, all were - but really confirmed all the negative reviews of this monitor. The picture was much too bright, the Orner icons appeared in a bright yellow marker, towards the corners yellowed picture. I have spent several days on on the settings of the monitor, the Windows monitor settings and the Nividia driver to get a halfway akzeptabeles image. Eventually I succeeded.
My conclusion - Samsung delivers technically different devices with the same type name. Some are quite outstanding and others rather at the lower limit of what is reasonable. The customer is thus involuntary participants of a lottery.
