Good buy for a widescreen monitor

This is my second flat-panel monitor, but my first ever widescreen monitor. I am a graphic designer and it has been extremely helpful when I have photoshop, illustrator and dreamweaver programs open. The color on the monitor is almost the same that...

Amazing color, no flickering, nice wide screen lets you move around your programs with ease

Base was hard to assemble at first

Big Bang for the Buck

This is my first move for an LCD from a CRT. This sleek, simple LCD monitor is made with only one thing in mind, just concentrate on the screen without worrying about anything else. Big Bang for the buck.Highly Recommended. But you should know about...

Simple, Easy to Use, Fantastic Colour Clarity, Excellent Brightness/Contrast

Initial color Caliberation needs a bit of time, Some types of text is about 1% out of colour

nice moniter for a person who would be using it for web browsing.

Not for a gamer. on the other side it has a great picture for a analog and has amasing colour. but as for my choice i'm using my Hanns-G JW199D over it.

Reliable Brand, MagicTune and magic bright features

No dvi. and that means it will have only analog input. With no digital this means shadowing can happen and text will be slightly more dificult to read

Still a solid monitor...

This thing is still a workhorse. I've had mine for years now, and it's still as good as the day I bought it. Buy it used or cheaply new and you'll have an excellent monitor for years. Recommended.

LCD display (Samsung SyncMaster)

Bought this for my in-laws to provide a larger screen replacing the laptop they had as the screen was too small. They LOVED this monitor. Looks great, well priced and definitely recommended. Note: be sure to check out multiple sites for price variance...

In Synch with SyncMaster: Samsung 920NW 19" LCD Monitor

About 2 or 3 years ago, we decided to replace the cumbersome, outdated, CRT that came with our E-machine. After shopping around, we decided to purchase the Samsung SyncMaster 920NW 19" LCD Monitor due to the size, quality of the visuals, and ...
