First: kudos to Amazon. "Ordered today, tomorrow there!" 1A. and with normal standard shipping (ie free)
How do I use my monitor?
I will replace my previously existing Acer AL-2216W, which is already getting old. Currently I run the two monitors in dual view side by side. On the PC, I spend about 70% of the time with work (Office / Internet) and 30% with entertainment (games, rarely DVD).
I run the Samsung via DVI. When unpacking, I realized that only a VGA cable is available. Minor nuisance, but which was not relevant to me.
The large tremor is when you first turn - no dead pixels. Ever good
The monitor is immediately recognized by Win7 and with a par settings are new and old side by side. What stands out immediately:
Contrast: The contrast is clearly better than with my "old" Acer. The contrast ratio seems to come almost Monitor approached my little LED. Working with a lot of white in the background was thus significantly more pleasant
Design: The Samsung looks very elegant with its black finish and touch buttons at the bottom
Stability: What bothered me earlier, was the "wobbling" of the entire monitor, if you came to the table. Here he is certain tidy. I would describe it as "upper average".
Colors: for I will not say much here. One can be rich or look paler in my opinion each monitor. On me makes the picture a good impression
Response time: The response time can I get into every smile. Whether 2, 3 or 5 ms was me when buying care. This is a purely measurable value. The human eye is not able to perceive differences.
Use: As mentioned, the monitor in office mode is very pleasant. In games mode, I could not see any drawbacks. Neither slideeffects nor streaks or the like. Personally, I can also recommend him to play.
Conclusion: 5 stars - Why?
The monitor is located in the lowest price region. It exceeds my expectations. Even much more expensive devices provide from not so angnehmes image. Sure it might be technically better equipment. But you may just as well not compare apples and oranges. (If one tests a VW Polo, one must indeed not take points because a Porsche is faster)
Here's a monitor that leaves no wishes unfulfilled in the price, neither the Office nor the Games operation.
