Product Description
This stunning widescreen monitor has the style and features you need to work efficiently and enjoy all your digital entertainment. The slim design is as beautiful as the amazing color quality that brightens the 19" screen. The 8000:1 contrast ratio delivers extremely sharp details and the 2ms response time virtually eliminates any motion blur. The 953BW is more than just a pretty face-it's the total package. It's all in the details. Everything you see becomes perfectly clear with an amazing 1440x 900 resolution. Complimented with a slim, stylish design, this widescreen is a perfect fit no matter where you use it. Response time refers to how long it takes pixels to turn from completely white to black and back again. The lower the milliseconds (ms), the faster the response time is. A very fast 2ms response time virtually eliminates any blurring, making this monitor perfect for enjoying video games and all of your digital entertainment. The contrast between light and dark colors on the screen is what makes images stand out. The bigger the difference between light and dark images, the more vibrant images will appear. With a dynamic contrast ratio of 8000:1 you'll enjoy sharper image quality that's sure to catch your eye. You'll have the highest resolution images possible and a picture that's second to none. 0.284 Pixel Pitch 2 ms Response Time 170/160 Horizontal and Vertical Viewing Angles Matte Panel Surface 75mm Wall Mount (VESA) Compatible VGA, DVI-D Connections 3-Year Warranty Approximate Unit Dimensions - 17.5 (W) x 14.2 (H)x 7.5 (D) with stand Approximate Unit Weight - 14.3pounds

5 out of 5 stars Clarity is key.   December 12, 2008
I win. (Ft. Worth, TX)
I am overly pleased with this monitor. It's capable of using any array of color/video settings, and has a great auto adjustment for setting the edges when you change the resolution. Hi-def is beautiful on here as well.


4 out of 5 stars Great Monitor   December 1, 2008
PD
This is a great monitor for general use. I bought six of these for the office and there was not a single dead pixel among the six. The monitor is annoyingly bright using the default settings, but that was easy to adjust. Our desktops don't have DVI video cards but even using the VGA connection the picture is excellent. I imagine it would be even better using DVI.
Overall it's a great step up from an old CRT or a smaller LCD.



4 out of 5 stars Very nice, some problems with the base   November 23, 2008

It is a very nice monitor, very slim and light. The only flaw that I have found is that there is a problem with the base because it is very difficult to tilt. It could be that it was just a defect of the one I bought.

I have loved this monitor from the second I plugged it in.

The colors are vivid and gorgeous. The black hues are rendered great. The refresh rate is awesome, no ghosting. All this through an analog connection (I have an older video card which did not connect digitally to the monitor).

I am in the market for a new TV as well, and will seriously look at Samsung first after my wonderful experience.

I do not like the wide screen monitor and did not realize that was what I was buying.
