Samsung SyncMaster 902 review: Samsung SyncMaster 902

Samsung's $284 SyncMaster 955DF makes flat-screen monitors affordable for all types of users. But as with other low-cost units we've seen, its display quality falls short of perfection. Samsung's $284 SyncMaster 955DF makes flat-screen monitors...

Low price; optional USB hub available; excellent display controls.

Middling display quality; low refresh rate at highest resolution.

This solid, reasonably priced, 19-inch flat-screen monitor offers satisfactory display quality for mainstream users.

Samsung SyncMaster 955DF monitor

When I reviewed Samsung's 17 inch SyncMaster 753DF last year (review here), I was impressed

If I didn't have a 900SL already, I'd use a 955DF. Recommended

SAMSUNG 997DF-Ivory Ivory 19" CRT Monitor 0.20mm Dot Pitch D-Sub

Just got this monitor yesterday, and its performance is summarized thusly: It does not work hard at all to deliver a crisp and bright image. Brightness can be at a reasonable value, instead of cranked to 100%, and Contrast can be as sharp or soft as...

Exceptional

Amazing! WOW! I didn't know there were so many colors on the web. All my favorite web pages look so much sharper and many more tones of colors that I didn't know existed. This monitor makes me feel like I am browsing the web in a whole new dimension....

Great monitor for a mid-range price

Best monitor out there for around 200 bucks. About 3 of my friends have one including me and we all love it. I use photoshop and play lots of games and love the vibrant colors.
