Advantages: Good Quality build and viewing Disadvantages: no carry handle
...monitor recently with a new Samsung Syncmaster 710N for what I thought was a good price of £149
So far I am pretty pleased with it. Prices seems to vary but I would say if you can get it cheaper than £150 then go and buy one. I recently found these on PCworld.co.uk for a small £119…..great price

I was impressed with this piece of kit when I unpacked it. For one I didn't think it was that heavy, perhaps not the lightest ... ...Samsung quality. The one thing I did notice was that there was no handle to hold it with. A lot of monitors have a recess to get your fingers in to allow you to carry it, no such luck here though.
Assembling the monitor was easy, attaching the base stand took no time at all and was well described.
In the base stand there is a large loop hole at the back. Being an idiot it took me a while to work out that this was actually a cable feed. You run ...

Advantages: Relability, Build quality, Fairly attractive, Leading brand Disadvantages: Sound quality, Picture quality, No. of inputs, Menu system, Lack of freeview, Age
...Secondly, there are little things Samsung just haven't thought about. When I use the screen as a PC monitor, I have to ensure I change the channel on the TV BEFORE I turn off the computer. Why? Well, for some reason, when the monitor loses its VGA input, the menu and source buttons become totally useless. It just sits there flashing the power light, waiting for the computer to come alive again. It won't allow you to change the source (or do anything, ... ...be 5 times faster than that!
Don't get me wrong - I like Samsung products. My house is filled with plenty of them. This particular one, though, is way out of its time. You'd have to be mad to pay more than £100 for this, you really would. ...

...had a dislike of Samsung products, after owning some in the early 1990's. I thought they were rubbish!
I am delighted to say that the Syncmaster 710MP has shattered that illusion admirably, it really does feel like a quality piece of kit.
I have owned this one for about a year, during which time it's been terrific. By the time you read this article, this particular machine maybe slightly old news. But if you are thinking of getting your hands on ...

Advantages: cheap, reliable, fairly good specs Disadvantages: heavy, difficult to carry
I bought this monitor about a year ago and I have so far had no technical issues with it. The monitor is of a good build quality and has a quite sleek modern look. The main advantages were that it was cheap, only about £180 at the time, it had good specs (12ms refresh rate) and had a quality brand name. I have so far no found any dead pixels on the screen which is very good as lots of LCD's nowadays have dead pixels. The monitor is stacked with features. ... ...screen to different programs you are running automatically very handy for gamers. It also has a fairly good brightness and refresh rate I have not noticed any ghosting during gameplay. The software provided is also fairly satisfactory and is updated on microsoft windows update. It can be used in either portrait or landscape. I found the portrait mode very handy for typing work as I like to see the whole page.
The only problem I found was that the ...

...makes and models.
The Samsung SyncMaster 710 MP is an excellent all round monitor. It offers a sharp crisp picture, good responce time 8ms and it has built in stereo sound speakers as it also doubles as a LCD television.
The LCD monitor comes witha remote control, has the option of hanging it on the wall should you want to use it as a TV rather than a monitor. The monitor has 1 scart socket as well as a TV aerial input, and 1 s-video input.

Advantages: Very Stilish, fast response time Disadvantages: price
...and NEC, but this latest SAMSUNG is definately the best performer.
The monitor is very elegant with a silver border, certified TCO03, the response time is very low, 12ms, I use it manly for games and watching movies and I can assure you that there is no ghosting, only a slight amount of blurring that disappears once you eyes get used to it.
I reccomend using it at the native resolution 1280x1024 and to use a DVI cable with refresh rate set @ 60hz

Advantages: Looks fantastic, no dead pixels at a great price Disadvantages: Sometimes looks a little grainy close up
...and you get the usual Samsung quality - although there were no installation or running problems I feel confident that Samsung would have given excellent support - but it seems Samsung have it right first time which means they have no need for support.
It's also great for watch dvd's on via the pc, editting digital photos and general pc use.
I have noticed that the picture can be a little grainy whilst I was editing some digital photos, but I feel ...

The image quality is brilliant for all uses. 19" LCDs odnt have very good image quality and 15" LCDs are to small to do anything so 17" has the best performance to size ratio and this is the best 17" 12ms LCD out at the moment at a reasonable price!

...The teletext function on the Samsung Syncmaster 710 MP is very useful for seeing whats on later, it goes translucent so that you cam watch T.V at the same time. It is very easy to install you basically just connect your devices to it, pull the stand up and plug it in. The tuning takes no time at all. You should always trust Samsung as they normally produce excelent quality goods, that never seem to break. Overall the Samsung Syncmaster 710 MP is ...
