    Monitor works fine for office work and movies - however it has an annoying background hum that can make it unusable at times.

    4.0 out of 5 stars Great picture, iffy design
    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 15 July 2010
    Verified Purchase
    Can't complain about the picture, it's very good. Like all monitors, it needs a little calibration to get the best out of it, but it's better in this regard than my past monitors from Samsung, Sony and Philips. My only real complaint is about the physical aspects of it. The touch-sensitive buttons might look impressive but they're not very user friendly. Having to cycle through the inputs with a touch-button is frustrating and annoying. The menu is clear and easy to understand but navigating around it with the touch buttons is needlessly awkward. Give me REAL buttons any day!

    The other problem is the physical size of it. Due to the tilt, swivel, and rotate functionality the stand is quite deep and bulky. As a result of this, when the base of the stand is flush against the wall the screen protrudes about 20cm from the wall. That's a lot more than I'm used to. Now I wish I had chosen a monitor with just simple tilt since I don't really need rotate and I'd like to the have the screen closer to the wall.

    3.0 out of 5 stars Not for Photography or Graphic work
    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 21 October 2009
    Not so fast Mr Mags !!

    Everything fine until you start editing photos.

    I expected a narrow viewing angle, but this is just unacceptable.

    Adjust yourself in your seat by just a few inches and the brighness and balance of a photo shift enormously.

    Even nodding your head with a fixed posture will give the same effect, it's that bad. Side to side it's tolerable, its the up/down that kills it.

    These things are not sp noticeable for general apps, and its otherwise a good monitor, but for photo-editing its apalling.

    I have to use a very fixed posture for photo-editing and am therefore just about to replace this with a (albeit much more expensive) monitor. I have had it 5 weeks - really dropped a cod on this one.

    I also found that greens are a bit yellowy - down to low colour gamutt I have found out today.

    Screams of "get what you pay for", but I have other TN panels that are fine for desk PC work so I never expected things to be this bad.

    What's scary is that on-line reviews rate it pretty high - some mention the viewing angle issues, but understate it.

    Not tried DVD/movies, so can't comment on those.

    Before I go, note that I calibrated this with a hardware colourimeter, so its not because of poor settings.

    As a final point, I think if you are serious about graphic work, you just need to accept you must pay much more for a monitor.

    4.0 out of 5 stars good monitor - get your own mains lead!
    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 20 October 2010
    i already had a SyncMaster 2493HM and this monitor is basically the same thing.

    The adjustable stand is very useful. Those who noted that it was not good for photo editing might need to tilt the screen up towards them - rather than leaving it. That way, moving your slightly makes no difference.

    One note: the version from Amazon comes with a continental mains lead. If you are planning on using it when it arrives, be sure to get your own lead!

    4.0 out of 5 stars A very nice monitor at a very decent price
    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 12 April 2009
    I have purchased this monitor from another online retailer, out of the box, aesthetic wise, it has been awesome, the design is truly magnific....I am a mac user and am a bit worried if there are compatibility issues, but to my amazement, none so far, after I attached the dvi connection to my macbook, it worked perfectly well.... it has 2 usb ports, audio in and out, hdmi, dvi and vga connection, what more can I ask? pretty satisfied with the performance too, no dead pixels and the adjustable stand at the back is an added pleasure. . .oops before I forget, it does swivel to 90 degrees, so, if you are a writer who likes to read blogs, articles, the portrait option would be best for you..... a truly awesome monitor.....

    4.0 out of 5 stars un excellent rapport qualité- prix
    Reviewed in France on 7 July 2009
    Verified Purchase
    Trés bon écran, colorimétrie plutôt fidèle (une fois qu'il est calibré, ce qui n'est pas forcément trés simple). Rapport qualité prix remarquable.Quelques défauts tout de même :
    -sa consommation électrique pas négligeable ;
    -l'angle de vision un réduit (normal pour une dalle TN) ;
    - le niveau sonore des hauts-parleurs est à la limite du ridicule (et plus faible a priori que sur son grand frère, le 2493HM) ;
    Les plus : la dalle orientable en mode portrait (pour un 24"!!!), la connectique, prises DVI, VGA, HDMI et' USB, audio (jackmini) en entrée et sortie...

    5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent en tout !
    Reviewed in France on 3 March 2010
    Verified Purchase
    Lorsqu'on cherche un écran, on exprime toujours plusieurs critères de sélection et il est rare de pouvoir les trouver tous satisfaits. Ici, pas besoin de sacrifier un critère au profit d'un autre : tout est là.

    Une qualité d'image remarquable, avec des contrastes bien ajustés et des couleurs fidèles (grâce à un réglage constructeur certes perfectible mais déjà très correct) ; un look très élégant (comme souvent chez Samsung) ; une connectique suffisante et accessible ; un pied réglable dans tous les sens et la position pivot... Un sans faute pour moi ! (Je ne saurai juger de la vitesse d'affichage, n'étant pas un gamer.)

    Allez, il faut bien lui trouver un défaut ? L'aspect Glossy des écrans Samsung s'accommodent mal des traces de doigts. Mieux vaut donc renoncer, au moins temporairement, au beurre de cacahuètes...

    - Dalle 16/9 (mode actuelle) alors que les 16/10 sont plus grandes en hauteur, les boutons tactiles vraiment difficiles a utiliser, il faut s'y reprendre plusieurs fois avant qu'il détectent. Surface glossy qui choppe la poussière en 10 min.

    Commandé le Lundi, recu le mardi (merci Amazon Premium), la livraison via UPS c'est super !!!

    Concernant le produit, il est vraiment superbe, le fait de pouvoir le regler dans tous les sens, n'est pas un luxe, c'est super pratique, quand au pivot c'est vraiment super pour les jeux verticaux (je redecouvre mes shoot'em up sous MAME) !!!

    Dans les jeux c'est pareil, aucun soucis (street fighter IV, Gears of War,...), je redecouvre mes jeux !

    Sur les Blu-ray, c'est pareil c'est exceptionnel, et avec de bon DIVX on a une qualité d'image vraiment tres bonne malgres la resolution Full HD !

    Seul regret, il a baissé de 20€ sur 2 jours !!!
