Expert review by: Sean Captain (pcworld.com)

15IN LCD 1024x768 350:1 0.297mm 153b-black Narrow Bezel Pivot Tech

Smart-looking in an understated way, the all-black SyncMaster 153T has a narrow bezel and provides smooth tilt and height adjustments (but no swiveling). It also rotates from landscape to portrait orientation. Image quality was respectable, especially...

Samsung 15IN/15V 29mm 1024x768 75hz Syncmaster 570v LCD FP Tco99

Overall, a decent monitor if you are looking for something cheap and servicable. Really only good for those older computers with old video cards. If you are looking only to save space and not use it often, I would recommend it. A good stop gap...

Fairly inexpensive. Very light. I used to have a CRT and this is definitely a step up

No digital output. It is already out of date since most new high end graphics cards support digital outputs. Seemed a little dim and didn't have the contrast in colors

Samsung 15IN/15V 29mm 1024x768 75hz Syncmaster 570v LCD FP Tco99

It's just very simple to install and nothing goes wrong with the screen. The screen is taking as little space as I expected and stands well. Not flimsy or anything. Very nice monitor.

Samsung 15IN/15V 29mm 1024x768 75hz Syncmaster 570v LCD FP Tco99

I have been completely satisfied with the monitor which has performed flawlessly. However... Beware of the Rebate offer, it's a ripoff and my rebate request has not been honored. I have been battling to get my $80 rebate since it was submitted at the...

Excellent monitor with easy installation

Samsung 15IN/15V 29mm 1024x768 75hz Syncmaster 570v LCD FP Tco99

I would buy again. With the exception of the installation problem when I did not preset my computer's display to 1024 X 768 and 16.7 million colors, it was a snap to make the change. Better yet, when the problem occured, I called Samsung Tech Support...

Outstanding display. Superior Tech Support

Installation documentation did not discuss resetting your computer's display settings before connecting the new monitor. Install is flawless if you preset your display to 1024 X 768 and 16.7M colors

Very Reliable

I have had this laptop for almost a year now, bought it July '08 over at Best Buy. It's a great laptop for several reasons. A big plus is the fact that there are two different buttons for powering on, one for 64-bit, and the other for 32-bit. 64-bit is...
