A great LCD

Strengths: Great 17" LCD, 8ms response time. Bright image. No dead pixels. inexpensive when there is a promotion.

Weakness: Does not come with the DVI cable. The screen do not have height, swivel, pivot, and tilt adjustment options.

This is a very good LCD. It works so far so good. I like it. the image is clear, crispy. Fast response time,Bright image make gamer happy. The Bright screen is good for Games and Movies But not for long time reading. I adjust the bright to the lowest level but still fell uncomfortable after a long time reading. If this monitor has tilt adjustment options,it will be better.

Samsung 730B 17" LCD Monitor

Strengths: Very Bright screen, very responsive

Weakness: Nice if height was adjustable

The 730B is very bright and responsive. There is essentially no difference between a CRT monitor and this screen when it comes to speed. Colors are vivid and the screen can be set to be very bright; black is deep and not washed out. Excellent viewing angles. It also has a long 3 year warranty from Samsung.

Samsung 730B 17" LCD Monitor

Strengths: Fast Response time 8ms. DVI capable. Low Price for High End LCD screen. 3 year warrenty and the brand name of Samsung.

Weakness: If you wish to use DVI, then you will have to purchase a cable. Samsung requires the DVI-D cable.

This is an excellent LCD monitor for the price. After working around various LCD monitors, I decided to upgrade and get rid of my 19" CRT. After researching various LCDs, I found this one to be the most capable and high end for its price. This LCD is excellent and can be used for games and movie watching without a problem. It has one of the fastest response times I have seen for a monitor in the...

Samsung 730B 17" LCD Monitor

Strengths: Fast response -- no streaking. Bright image. No dead pixels. Very inexpensive for a DVI-capable monitor.

Weakness: Limited tilt capability. Viewing angle capability not as wide as some. DVI cable not included.

The Samsung 730B does just about everything you want a flat panel to do, at a price that won't break the bank. The rated 8ms pixel response is very fast; the monitor gives an image with little or no streaking when watching DVDs or playing video games. Out of the box, the image is very bright; I had to turn mine down to use it comfortably in a moderately-lit room. Once I set the monitor for the...

Samsung 730B 17

Strengths: fast response, no dead pixels, bright images, texts are sharp and vivid

Weakness: no DVI cable included, height not adjustable

This is my first LCD monitor, and so far I like it very much. This LCD monitor has a great response time. No ghosting at all, great for watching movies and playing games. This monitor is also very easy to set up and the images are sharp and vivid. However, no DVI calbe included, so have to spend extra money on that. I would love this monitor more if the height can be adjusted; but compare to its...

mostly excellent

Strengths: EXCELLENT contrast and brightness. bright whites, and pretty deep blacks (at least for an LCD). included gamma-setting program. no dead pixels. gives a GREAT picture with a DVI cconntection.

Weakness: awkward, hard-to-read controls, difficult picture tuning, limited physical adjustments. no dvi cable.

***Update*** I just bought a DVI cable, and it made all the difference in the world as far as color accuracy. I have modified my review to reflect this. --------------------------------- overall imperfect, but it has some impressive qualities. - the first thing i noticed when i took it out of the box was its lack of adjustments: tilt is the only one, unless of course you mount it with something...

Great LCD at affordable price.

Strengths: 1. The fastest response time in market 8 ms. 2. Crisp, Brightness, Sharpness are so Perfect. 3. Dual input sources (Analog, DVI) 4. MagicTune Mode is useful to adjust color scheme.

Weakness: 1. No DVI in the box. 2. Height cannot be adjusted. 3. No swivel. 4. Control Button on screen is so difficult to read. 5. Without rebate involved, the price is a way too high.

This is a great monitor indeed. But I'm not quite sure about an issue of backlight Bleeding!! When I changed my screen into any dark colors especially black, it is very noticeable to see extra backlight around the top and right edges of the panel which is very very annoying in those color scheme so I do have to set another pictures which is not too dark on the top and right edge as a wallpaper....

Samsung 730B 17" LCD Monitor

Strengths: Super easy set up, no dead pixels, crisp, clear picture

Weakness: No DVI cable supplied.

This was my first LCD screen, and so far, I like it. Setting it up was super easy - just connect one cable to the computer, the other to the power supply source, and you're done. Once turned on, the screen was WAY too bright. I had to adjust the brightness so that my eyes wouldn't hurt. The picture is pretty crisp. I also checked for dead pixels (do a google search for a program that tests for...

Samsung 730B 17" LCD Monitor

Strengths: DVI, 8ms, Bright and clear

Weakness: The base of LCD is unadjustable.

Samsung makes good LCD monitor. It is plug and play. easy to set up. I connect LCD monitor to my Dell tower using DVI cable. I don't see different in DVI connection.(yes, I am not pro). 8ms response time is for gamer. In general, it is great monitor.
