Product Description
This stunning widescreen monitor has the style and features you need to work efficiently and enjoy all your digital entertainment. The slim design is as beautiful as the amazing color quality that brightens the 19" screen. The 8000:1 contrast ratio delivers extremely sharp details and the 2ms response time virtually eliminates any motion blur. The 953BW is more than just a pretty face-it's the total package. It's all in the details. Everything you see becomes perfectly clear with an amazing 1440x 900 resolution. Complimented with a slim, stylish design, this widescreen is a perfect fit no matter where you use it. Response time refers to how long it takes pixels to turn from completely white to black and back again. The lower the milliseconds (ms), the faster the response time is.

The contrast between light and dark colors on the screen is what makes images stand out. The bigger the difference between light and dark images, the more vibrant images will appear.

4 out of 5 stars Awesome picture quality, but it's missing something..   July 19, 2008
Brodel (Richmond, VA)
The picture quality of this monitor is GREAT! Since hooking it up I have watched a few HD shows and movies and they all look perfect. I have a Samsung HD TV so I figured as much as I love my HDTV I would get a Samsung monitor to match.

The only reason I rated this monitor 4 stars instead of 5 is because I feel like Samsung took the cheap way out by not adding an adjustable tilt \ height stand and leaving out a DVI cable. Lucky for me I still had my cable from my old Dell monitor, but still come on, even that monitor came with both a DVI and VGA connection.



1 out of 5 stars Samsungs warrenty's are not what they are cracked up to be,   July 10, 2008

My son got this monitor about 13 months ago. He is 17, almost 18 years old. It sits on his desk, with no temper changes or objects near by to damage it. He went out of town for 3 days and came back turned it on and it looks like someone through a baseball at the picture. The screen itself is intact but the picture is cracked all over. After calling Samsung and being on hold for over 15 minutes I was told that it's "PHYSICAL DAMAGE" and Samsung would not do anything about it. I asked if I had boughten the monitor 2 weeks ago and it did that would I get the same answer, he replied yes. I used to love Samsung... I have phones and a microwave by them along with a 21 yr old TV that still has a great picture, but now I will no longer buy any of their products. The only thing the rep kept telling me was " I'm sorry for the inconvienence" Thats a whole lot of help.... Think twice before buying any of their products as their warrenty isnt as cut and dry as they make it seem.

I purchased this item 2 weeks back and am pretty satisfied. I am using this for watching TV as well as for my home office. Only problem is that I cannot switch it off remotely as this does not have a remote. HD quality is great!

Works great with the normal video cable. The contrast is fantastic. I have implants due to glaucoma and the text jumps right out compared to the original 21" Apple Studio Monitor it replaced.


5 out of 5 stars Incredible Picture!   May 3, 2008

I love this monitor. With the 2ms response time I see no motion blur or ghosting with even the fastest action sequences, the resolution (1440x900) and color contrast (8000:1) is amazing. The clarity is incredible. Watching movies, editing pictures and playing games is a joy on this monitor and with the slim stylish design it looks great even when not in use.

Check the technical specs and you won't find a better monitor in its class.

Set-up and customizing is a breeze too.
