No compromises 1600x1200 res solution.

Strengths: - Suitable viewing angle for a screen of this size. - Extremely bright with good screen uniformity. - Good contrast and black performance for an LCD. - Fantastic color performance/white balance.

Weakness: - Noticable backlight shine at each corner of the screen on an all-black background (typical of LCD's though). - Suite of software is poorly documented and full of half-understandable Engrish.

Being a former LCD skeptic, I'm quite pleased with this monitor. I was unlucky enough to get one with a dead green subpixel towards the middle of the screen, but otherwise the monitor has met all of my expectations. It's very well setup right out of the box (unless you don't like bright) with correct black and white reference points, and the default color temp looks perfect with no hint of blue...

I miss my Big Tube

Strengths: Contrast, Adjustability, Size

Weakness: Blockiness of display, Pictures look Photoshoped

My 21" Viewsonic P815 Professional Series shorted out a few days ago and based on the reviews here I replaced it the Samsung 214T. I was pleased with the adjustability of the monitor. I used to have my monitor on a 6" block of wood to raise it up. With the Samsung 214T it is not necessary. The height adjustment is a little tricky because you have push down on the top so that you can push in the...

I made the right choice

Strengths: Text sharpness and readability; monitor pivots up, down, left, right, rotates 90 degrees, and angles forward and backwards; my monitor has zero dead pixels

Weakness: None found - yet

This was my first LCD purchase. I'm finally getting rid of my 13 year-old 15" CRT from Viewsonic. I just built my dream computer and wanted a monitor to match it in quality and performance. Selecting an LCD was the most difficult choice to make because I haven't been happy with the readability of many LCD monitors. I wanted 1200x1600 resolution and had to decide between a Viewsonic, Sony, NEC and...

SyncMaster 214T

Strengths: Easy installation, 4 pre-set brightness settings for internet, custom, text and entertainment use. Screen rotates for landscape viewing.

Weakness: Stand is not adjustable up and down, only has a tilt angle.

I was looking for a second 21" screen for side by side use and decided on a SyncMaster since I've had a Samsung 213T for several years and found it very reliable. Although they both have the same stand, the 214T stands about 1/2" taller than the 213T. The stands are not adjustable up and down, so placing the two displays side by side for large project displays makes the 1/2" difference slightly...

214 T

Strengths: 8ms response time

Weakness: None so far

I wanted to replace my Sony trintron CRT with a good LCD. I was not able to find many reviews, but I went for it because it was a Samsung. I am on BF2 eavery day and this monitor has been great for gaming... Thank you Samsung.

They're great! Would buy again in a heartbeat

Strengths: Great picture w. analog or digital, fast response. No dead pixels. 3 year warranty.

Weakness: Reaching here: cannot turn OSD 90° to match screen orientation

Purchased two from ClubIT.com without a hitch. No dead pixels. Stand is height adjustable. Price was great and I got free shipping with a sale. Using Nview Rotate for rotated displays (Not the software that came with the monitor) and an XFX GeForce 6800 GT. No issues whatsoever. The screens heat up a little bit, but nowhere near as much as my giant 65 lb Panasonic S21 did. I had that monitor for...

Fantastic Monitor!

Strengths: Bright, clear picture.

Weakness: None.

I used this monitor to replace my Professional Series ViewSonic P225f. It's screen is about the same size. The picture is just as clear and bright only I have alot more room on my computer desk due to it's smaller depth measurement.

Awesome monitor

Strengths: size, contrast ratio, response time, resolution

Weakness: none

I am more than satisfied with the quality of this monitor, it's features and funcionallity. I will recommend everyone to get this monitor as an upgrade to my old 19" LCD monitor. You will see the difference, and your eyes would definitely feel it.
