 Fantastic Monitor Jan 10, 2009
This is a great monitor. I originally wanted the Acer model similar to this, but had to get this one due to availability from store. The side-to-side viewing is great. It looks like the image is painted on, like in Star Trek TV shows. Up-to-down viewing is awful though. You have to view it at eye level or else it does that color shift LCDs do. You can't tilt the monitor up and down either - which is really bad design! You can tilt it left or right, but that isn't needed since you can view it from 180 degree angle and still see it. Nor can you raise or lower it, or rotate the display (portrait mode). It is just a tad too short for my speakers to fit under the left and right. I LOVE the instant on! It replaces my old, dim, darkened CRT which took 60 seconds to warm up! The display is very bright and there were 0 dead pixels. I DON'T like the blinking blue power light when it goes into hibernate though, especially at night. It is VERY bright. Why can't it just blink 10 times then quit?
I LOVE it, except for the non-tilting vertical display, and blinking blue light. 4 stars since it's not perfect. Should last another 10 years.
Awesome monitor for the price Nov 06, 2008
I've had this monitor for over a year now and it's been very reliable. No dead pixels even after bottle cap was jettisoned right in to the screen.
 CMO version of "Samsung" 226BW...Perfect! Sep 18, 2008
After opening the box: made in Malaysia feb 2008 sticker with no version (s?)
Hidden menu:go to menu,contrast and brightness to zero,menu again,then hold source for 5 sec...It is a CMO version,the worst one as based on the 1000 reviews I read before on the net.
Plug the monitor on the vga port of my LG laptop (Geforce GO 7400 512Mb).
Picture looks great,not a single adjustment required.
Call of Duty 4,World in conflict...running perfectly on 16:10,clear images on action.
DVD's: The Thin Red Line...WONDERFUL!
So what about the so deadly blue rendering,the dark top,the fade colors,the noise,the difference with other versions...?
NOTHING!!!
Even the stand is OK for me.
Great product!
All around great monitor Aug 29, 2008
Love this monitor and I'm running 2 of them on my computer, which is a must IMO... makes everything so much easier to do. :) Great contrast, color, clarity and software that comes with it... unit is very solid and looks great. Can't beat it for the price.
What an amazing difference from a 50 pound 19" monitor... Aug 15, 2008
I used to own one of those huge bulky 19" inch flat-screen monitors before this one, and am I glad I made the switch - so much space on my desk now!! Now about the monitor itself: Beautiful colors, awesome size so if you're into gaming like I am this is a new experience. Also, this is perfect for web-designers and those who use photo-editors and the likes. Plenty of room to leave all toolbars, menus, etc. on the screen.
I actually bought mine a little over a year ago, and I know now they have monitors with a higher contrast ratio, but this is perfect. I do not intend on replacing while it still works.
