Very good monitor with a few small weaknesses

Samsung S32D850T 80 cm (31.5 inch) LED monitor (DVI, HDMI, USB 3.0, DisplayPort, 5ms response time) black / silver (Personal Computers)

Customer Review

Due to a defect of my previous monitor just before Christmas, faster replacement had to be procured. Thanks to the Samsung Cashback action (purchase until 31/12/14 and registration to 15:01:15 for a reimbursement of 100 Euro), me the S32D850T cost effective then 485 Euro. Following the recent test on prad.de (TOTAL predicate very good), the also promised top workmanship and stylish design in addition to an excellent black level, very good visual impression and for a VA panel extremely decent response time, it is then ultimately become of this monitor.

Unfortunately, I realized that the opinions of various postings speak a slightly different language after my order. So in addition to this monitor, both the Acer B326HULymiidphz and Benq BL3200PT fight (all with the same panel) probably with some problems. Besides flicker effects in certain games, Google Earth and Google Maps cutouts, inter alia by strong vertical banding and one in comparison to the above test less good reaction time is talk. Especially in fast movements and light, monotonous scene (z. B. Wolkenhimmel) it is intended to cause unsightly artifacts. Fortunately, appear to be not affected all models. So my device (Manufactured September 2014, Version No. GP02) is so far error. Only in extreme test images like this "[...]", can make when you move the minimized browser window called the flicker effect. Outside these artificial test environment, the monitor is working in this regard so far error. Even in test images with homogeneous grays or Gradientenverläufen, you can see sometimes a slight banding, but also were minimal, not to be compared with no active search virtually invisible and with the extreme reports of some users. In real-world applications (desktop, video, games), the effect could be even minimally pronounced and reproduce such as. Mist in very bright and monotonous backgrounds.

Regarding reaction time, the overdrive circuit leads to "fastest" according prad.de then at a very good for VA panels response relationships, what I can for lack of equipment not itself measure it, but subjectively confirm. In normal desktop operation, however this setting ensures easy corona effects while scrolling fonts. For the daily work should be the default "faster" therefore probably prefer maintained. The color intensity is to evaluate for myself very well with throughout. So wallpapers and movies come along in high blaze of color, similar to one is used by IPS monitors. Here even a tick do these natural on the Samsung. Who is on brightly colored candy optics, is but a small piece of his with an IPS panel but possibly more satisfied. The dull matt coating ensures mirroring freedom, without glitter or oil film effects, as it is known by the anti-glare films of some Dell models. The illumination is homogeneous, a brightening of the corners, even when completely darkened room, only weakly and in test patterns perceptible. In particular, the black level is for me beyond doubt and a serious increase compared to my old IPS panel. So videos look spatially deep and vivid, dark scenes wait for their turn on with more detail and without annoying halos. Only at very oblique angles of the VA panel typical contrast and color loss is visible. Should therefore not relevant in daily use. The mirror effect described by some reviewers to the frame, is only in really bright scenes recognizable and at least for me not bother us. It will be rewarded with a stylish, extravagant, matt brushed metal finish, even if the frame is itself only made of plastic. Generally that makes housing a valued and not least because of the massive giant stand impression.

Whether continues to be a great series is spread or newer production lines actually have a generally better build quality, I sadly can not say. In fact, seem to present probably have almost all manufacturers are struggling with major variations in quality. So popular and as it tested positive models such as the LG 34UM95-P and LG 34UM65-P are also affected by many field reports of severe bleeding and can confirm only, with positive ratings in this respect.

All in all, I therefore a buy recommendation, under the premise that the mentioned problems now belong to the past.
