Samsung SyncMaster 970P

Excellent image quality; attractive design; very flexible base and neck; offers 270 degrees of screen pivoting.

No extra features; no control buttons or embedded ports; neck unstable at full height.

The Samsung SyncMaster 970P has a striking design, but it's the fine image quality that makes this display worthy of consideration.

Syncmaster 970P

If monitors entered beauty contests, the Samsung SyncMaster 970P could count on a bouquet and a tiara. With its soft lines, one-button design, and translucent white finish, it certainly attracts attention (the button turns on the unit). Its screen,...

Attractive cabinet with stable stand

Screen requires adjustment to look good

In short, the handsome 970P's strong point is its customizability. Its weak point is that customizability isn't an option, but something you're forced to use to get acceptable image quality. So much went into the design, and the price is so high, it...

VERDICT: 8

In the DisplayMate (www.displaymate.com) evaluation scripts, the 970P stood out as offering the best screen uniformity of the LCDs here, betraying nary a hint of backlight on a completely dark screen. It also proved to have the deepest black level and...

Samsung 970 Pro Review

The Samsung 970 Pro is the latest SSD from the modern kings of solid-state storage. There aren't any bigger names in this part of the market than the Korean giant, and its latest drive refresh clearly aims to cement Samsung's position at the top of the...

Consistently quick speeds Great endurance rating Five-year warranty

Cheaper 970 Evo is occasionally faster The price means diminishing returns

The Samsung 970 Pro is one of the fastest SSDs we’ve ever tested. It’s record-breaking in numerous benchmarks and, even when other drives are quicker, it’s never far behind.
