Smasung SyncMaster 2233SWPLUSE 22" LCD Monitor + 2.5 years warrenty
SAMSUNG's SyncMaster 2233SW has a 22-inch display and slim design that is both gorgeous and space saving. It has a smooth, glossy bezel much like the T220. There are some differences in design though. Unlike the T220, which was a miniature replica of Samsung's series 6 LCD TVs, the 2233sw lacks the Touch of Color bezel. Instead, it has a smooth glossy piano finish.
A small blue light placed at the center under the "Samsung" stamp indicates whether the monitor is ON or OFF. The power and OSD buttons are placed at the side of the monitor. As compared to the touch sensitive buttons of the T220, these are mechanical and have the labels embossed onto them. Since the embossing isn't in a different color, reading the labels is a really difficult task.
The panel stands on a sturdy piano finish stand that firstly, is difficult to connect and, secondly, doesn't allow the monitor to swivel, giving it only a small amount of tilt instead. Be as it may, the stand is sturdy and holds the panel well in place and can withstand minor bumps and shakes.
The back of the monitor for some reason has a neat flowery design. It has a DVI-D and a D-Sub (VGA) port for connectivity.
The Samsung 2233SW comes with a 22-inch panel that has a maximum resolution of 1920x1080. Yes, Full HD! It has a response time of 5 ms, contrast ratios of 1000:1 (typ) and 15000:1 (dynamic) and has a maximum brightness of 300 cd/m2. Viewing angles are 170 degree (horizontal) and 160 degree (vertical).
Special features include Samsung's proprietary MagicBright, Image Size, Color Effect, MagicTune and Safe Mode (down scaling in UXGA) and DVI with HDCP.
What all these technologies result into is a set of viewing presets for different scenarios like Cinema or Movie mode, Internet mode, Text mode, etc. My experience with these presets has never been a good one and I suggest not to fiddle around with these. In fact you can buy a DVI-D cable and use that to connect the computer to the monitor, as the DVI port automatically selects the best resolution and brightness/contrast values; something like an Auto Adjust mode.
