The only problem that I had was finding one. My last monitor was a NEC 19 inch that allowed me to rotate/switch between horizontal and vertical views. I was pleasantly surprised that this Samsung monster can also do this (24 inches and all). The contrast on this thing is fantastic. I found it for 799. This price will certainly drop in the coming months. I've already seen 22 inches at 399. Wait if...
Strengths: This monitor is crisp, clean and better than Dell's.
Weakness: A little pricey still for the real estate, but it's the gonig price.
OSD is great. I really like there are modes for brightness level. My digital photos look so much better on this than on a CRT. The color leans a little strong toward the red. This is my second monitor the first one stopped working at 28 days, but Samsung is great and offered a free replacement. This is the sweet spot if you're looking for a high quality monitor, but not ready to go for the big...
Strengths: * BEAUTIFUL SCREEN * sleek bezel
Weakness: no speakers (most people have their own so no biggie)
I'm running tons of games (BF2, HL2, Oblivion) and no lag. Contrast is best on "middle" mode, entertainment mode is a bit washed out. widescreen is stunning in Oblivion. I also do a lot of photoshop work and web page design. It's nice to have the photoshop palettes separate from the workspace AND have room left over. Or to see code and a browser open at the same time. Sound editing is amazingly...
Strengths: Excellent refresh rate, beautiful expansive screen, very bright and colorful. Huge! But actually quite light. Lots of inputs, HDMI complient
Weakness: Silly USB port placement. It would be nice to have buttons to specifically vary the brightness. Needs a powerful graphics card.
This monitor will shock you due to its size and clarity. The cons are really nit-picky, as the monitor itself is amazing. I certainly didn't buy the monitor for the USB ports and wouldn't use them anyway. The options for color, brightness ,contrast etc give you quite advanced adjustments and are perfect for photo work. The only thing I would caution people on is making sure their graphic card is...
Strengths: HDCP compliant, 6MS, ultra clear and bright, pivots/rotates
Weakness: none
This monitor is awesome! a few hundred more than 24 inchers from Dell and HP, but far superior. Dell monitor that is similar and sells for just over $1000 is NOT the same monitor. Samsung makes the panel for the Dell, this is bulk sell to an OEM builder, Samsung saves the best quality panels for samsung displays; also samsung electronics and software are superior to the Dell. There is more than...
Strengths: sharpness, color fidelity, works as a TV and a monitor. future proof with DVI-HDCP.
Weakness: needs more inputs, 16:10 aspect ratio :(, high price for what you get. no way to force 16:9 for either digital or analog video feeds, too bright
First impressions were amazing, awe inspiring, no dead pixels, pivots, tilts and swivels, great outside ergonomics. i first plugged the screen in at work and set my video card to the native 1920x1200. i used the stock VGA cable because i somehow lost the DVI cable at work, found it later though :). the image was surprisingly good for analog-VGA at this resolution but my GeForce Ti4600-AGP seemed...
Strengths: HDTV use is breathtaking. PC monitor via DVI is perfect. High contrast. High brightness. Fast response time.
Weakness: Minor - 1. HDCP works, but DVI for HDTV doesn't look nearly as bright as via component video input. 2. one set of comp. vid inputs. A $50 comp video switchbox needed to support DVD player.
Here's the real HDCP scoop on this monitor, which I just purchased. 1. It DOES have HDCP - my comcast box will only talk DVI to this 244T, NOT my Sony PWM232 (also a 23" monitor but with plain DVI). 2. I am a repentant "always-digital" snob. The same high def program looks FAR better via component video in than DVI!! The gamma correction, contrast, and brightness are superb in comp video and...
Strengths: Good looking, bright, does everything one is looking for in a big monitor.
Weakness: Have not been able to work the Magictune software. USB ports not properly located.
Great lookin monitor which enhances the decor of the whole office. Bright and beautiful. When I first installed it, it looked too big. But now I am getting used to it and does not look too big. For some reason, I have not been able to install the Magictune software. It keeps giving an error sign. Colors are vibrant. The monitor wows you.
Strengths: Incredibly clear, bright image that exceeds even the best High Definition TV's. Good control and flexibility.
Weakness: The poorest instruction sheet I've seen in the last 30 years.
I was startled by the poor English and lack of clarity in the instruction sheet and the website Instruction Manual. It reminded me of the early attempts at writing manuals from Japan and Taiwan back in the 1950's. To make matters worse, the CD ROM with the driver would not work, so I had to download everything from the website. Again, getting through the fractured logic flow to the download...

SyncMaster 244T Black 24" LCD Monitor
Strengths: Widescreen Viewing. High resolution
Weakness: None
Widescreen excellent for large Excell spreadsheets and for online video. High resolution gives excellent picture. Easy to set-up with detailed instructions for updating driver. Well packaged. Feel that price is reasonable for this product. Liked the screen on the HP product better but not for the price differential
