Samsung 2253BW Black 22" Widescreen LCD Monitor

Bright, sharp, light, but no HDMI.

Strengths: Excellent display, easy setup, bright, sharp.

Weakness: No HDMI input. Controls are hard to find beneath the bezel.

I am using this monitor at native resolution with an analog VGA connection. Razor sharp display good colors. It comes with both DVI and VGA cables. It does not have an HDMI input.

Sleek, strong performing monitor

Strengths: Great response time. Good handling of blacks and video. Sleek look with the black glossy stand and frame.

Weakness: None yet. I haven't put it through any intensive gaming yet.

I recently got this monitor to replace my 19" Viewsonic was destroyed in an accident. It definitely is sharper and sleeker looking. I would definitely recommend this in the 22" LCD category.

nice monitor

Strengths: Nice size, super sharp text and fast response time. Looks nice as well

Weakness: No HDMI and USB hubs; the auto-adjustment feature doesn't work accurately sometimes.

Though the auto-adjustment doesn't do a good consistently. However, you can always help it by maximize one of the windows. Apparently, it does help. Besides that, there's no other cons I am aware of. it's quite comparable to the EIZO that I used couple years ago in terms of view specification.

Really Nice - Then Sudden Death

Strengths: Easy set up; very sharp; relatively easy controls. Slick looking and so nice to not have to side scroll web pages.

Weakness: Minor: Can't read the control icons w/o a flashlight. Major: It died or at least was mortally wounded...

This was my first LCD Flat Panel anything. Pretty excited. Set up very quickly and adjusted nicely. Great. Significant other having monitor envy - stuck back on her Samsung 997DF 19" CRT... About 10 days of use and suddenly the screen goes blotto. Don't have a better word (FUBAR?) - I could see the words and icons but everything was fuzzy and text went from barely legible black to various shades...
