Absolutely great monitor, excellent for watching movies, playing games and just about anything. I also use it for my xbox 360.

The first thing I noticed about this monitor was the clarity of the colours. The colours are so vibrant and really enhance the experience for playing games and watching movies.

I use this monitor mainly for my pc, but I have also connected my Xbox 360 with the Xbox 360 VGA cable. I was really impressed with the quality of my Xbox 360 on this monitor. Everything is in full HD and looks amazing. When I play my xbox 360 on my HD TV I really miss the colours that I get with the monitor.

The only slight downside is the stand that holds the monitor is a bit basic and not the best I have seen. It does the job fine though and keeps the whole thing pretty compact on a desk.

As always I think Samsung continue to manufacture some of the best displays that are out there and this screen is no exception. It has an amazingly fast 2ms response time which means no ghosting or anything you might get with other LCD displays.

One of the best monitors in this price range I have laid my eyes on.
