Pros: Awesome quality for one of the most affordable flat monitors around.
Cons: Not as aesthetically designed compared to newer models.

I'll be completely honest. I am not the most educated person in the field of computers. In fact, I can hardly spit any numbers at you (other than maybe the monitor size, resolution and model number), so don't expect any jargon in this review. However,...

Pros: crisp text, light weight, less power consumption, price
Cons: no digital input

I work with graphics and video and I was disappointed to hear that LCDs aren't for people like me. I didn't want to spend money on a big heavy CRT just because it was good for graphics. I did what they said. I bought a 19 inch shadow mask because it was...

Pros: Amazingly sharp image. Brightness is better than CRT. Easy to use.
Cons: Pricey vs. CRT. External power brick. Picky about resolutions.

Well, my old Samsung 15" tube monitor was on its last legs, and the new game I was playing at the time (Tribes 2) was REALLY dark, so I went and stretched my credit once again with what I considered a really healthy purchase.

First off, ANY...

Pros: Awesome image quality & Price. Saves you some space & electrical bills.
Cons: Minor cons- no DVI, still not as good a CRT.

With LCD, dropping in price and me running out of desktop space, I thought it was time to invest in a nice new LCD monitor. At first you have to ask you self, is an LCD really necessary? If you play a lot of fast paced games. Your better off with a...

Pros: Text looks terrific, and I can move it by myself
Cons: Color and brightness are very uneven across the screen

First, the good news:
The 570V looks terrific on text, so long as you stick to its native resolution (1024x768). Supposedly, it's the only LCD monitor that looks good in DOS, which is why I got it. It installed itself in Windows 98 without a...

Pros: takes up little room, easy to install, great price for the quality
Cons: haven't found any yet

When LCD monitors hit the market, we all wanted one. The reduced glare, less desktop space, light weight...but, they were all so expensive. And, they still are. I managed to get this little baby for 249.99 with a $30 mail-in rebate.

It's a...

Pros: Wonderful clarity, brilliant colors, installs with ease.
Cons: for me there are none

I have had great service from this monitor for almost a year now and I cannot say anything bad about it. There has only been one pixel gone out in that time and I have the monitor on all the time. I love the clarity and color. I can look at it from...

Pros: Great image quality, easy adjustment, nice to look at!
Cons: Non

The 570V Monitor is quite a pleasure to view. I got tired of getting headaches from looking at my screen so I opted to try the Samsung as my first flat screen monitor, and am happy I made the purchase. The quality of the screen is excellent, with nice...

Pros: Good quality for a reasonable price.
Cons: None so far.

I was sick and tired of my old and fuzzy 17" monitor. Reading text got to be so painful that I almost broke out my .45 and put it out of my misery! I kept putting off getting a new monitor because I didn't want to get another one that took up half an...

Pros: Good price. Good resolution. Nice and compact.
Cons: What happened to the color red???

I bought my SyncMaster 570V TFT about 2 years ago. I got it at a pretty nice price at the time ($350). I know that you can get larger LCD monitors for that price now, but they are usually no-name brands. I was thrilled with it. I am not really a high-end user so having spectacular resolution and color resolution wasn't a huge deal for me. But for my purposes it worked great and it saved a huge amount of room on my desk after I got rid of my CRT monitor.

A few weeks ago, I notice that the screen looked funny. I couldn't decide on what happened, but then I realized that the color red was gone.

I checked the settings and the cables and everything, but to no avail. Finally I called Samsung. They said that my monitor was no longer eligible to be sent back to the manufacturer for replacement. Instead, I have to send it down to a repair outfit in S. California.

Pros: Stands up to use, small desk area, nice colours and resolution.
Cons: None.

I've had this monitor for a couple years now. My computer is in use extensively and around the clock, and anything that could break down, does. They offered me a guarantee on this monitor in case pixels stop working, but I didn't buy it, and so far I've had no pixels stop working.

The thing is, this monitor is perfect for me because I have very little desk space. This thing is less than a foot deep. This is really great. True, it's only 15 inches, but the colour is great too ! I mean, you can set it at any resolution, and the colours are crisp.

Settings are also important. This monitor has all the settings you need. Contrast, resizing, positioning, it has them all. The buttons are shallow when you press them, but that's not a big deal.

I'm very satisfied with this product, primarily as it is one of the few things that haven't broken down to the Franc regimen yet, but it's just a great buy. Truth is, it was mighty expensive, but it was worth it.

I don't remember the installation, but I've had no problems with the drivers.
