I've got a room full of Mac equipment, and typically buy Apple monitors, but didn't want to spend Apple prices for this one. I'm using it as a second monitor for two systems - a tower that does heavy design work and a laptop that runs Windows under bootcamp. I switch between the two with a KVM switch from StarTech. The Samsung has been fine so far, though just slightly less crisp than my 3-yr old Apple Cinema. Basically worth every penny. No idea how long this thing is good for though, as I just got it. NOTE - I didn't receive a DVI cable with mine, just a VGA - so if you're hooking up to a modern computer you'll want to get one of those. VGA is just so awful. Also if you're hooking up to a Mac with an ADC connector you'll want a Dviator in addition to the DVI cable. Search for Belkin F2E9142-WHT Pro Series ADC to DVI Apple Monitor Adapter.Read full review
This monitor is everything I needed in a monitor, very nice size but doesn't take up your desk space. Picture quality is awesome, very sharp graphics for gamers and like me, movies are fantastic. This is a great all around monitor. The only feature that I personally do not care for is the setup menu for changing the brightness and contrast. It does not let you choose what you want it has only predefined modes. I have been using the "game" mode and it seems to do the job nicely. I would purchases another one even with not having the ability to change the settings mentioned above due to the excellent picture quality and size.
I bought this monitor in Jan 09. Compared to other flat panel monitors on the market, it is inexpensive at around $275 but I paid $185.

Quake runs excellent on this monitor. In view of its inexpensive price, this monitor has great features for the money.For example, when it comes to viewable screen size, the average price of flat panel monitors with comparable viewable size is quite a bit more -- in fact around $740. I will more then likely end up buying another one for the other home computer. The only thing it lacks is an hdmi input, but I do recommend it.Read full review
I just bought 2 of these, so I cannot attest to their longevity. But, I took them out of the box, hooked them up and they lit up perfectly. The adjustments are readily accessible from the front panel and are easy to use. I took a few minutes to adjust things the way I like them and saved the settings to be applied to the second monitor. This monitor has gotten excellent reviews in other forums and I can only echo them. The colors are vibrant, the contrast is excellent, the fonts and graphics look great and the price was right. What more can I say?
I have bought refurbished equipment before and this was no exception to what I expected to get. This was a great buy and it came with a manufacture’s warranty. Samgung is a brand you can trust and they back what they make. I installed the unit and it performed perfectly using the DVI interface or digital cable to the computer. I like to view movies and Hulu TV episodes online because there are fewer commercials. They also provide an HD picture that with this new monitor it generates a great picture. Now you add a Dolby 5.1 sound system to it and it will look and sound like you are in a theater. I have no complaints on this monitor. It was a great buy!
