With the Samsung 2233SW monitor on your desk you may never get up again. Samsung has combined the best of their TV and monitor building skills and combined them into this one unit. The 22” screen has a native 1920x1080 resolution, 300cd/m² brightness rating and 15000:1 dynamic contrast ratio for incredibly detailed pictures.
The DVI connector supports HDCP for exceptional HD performance, and there's a D-Sub connector for analog connections. The stand has tilt adjustments to maximize viewing comfort.
A full suite of Samsung’s Magic Technologies works in the background to maximize picture quality. MagicColor and MagicBright3 work together to give you rich, natural color. Selectable brightness modes let you adjust things for various functions: text, game, internet, sports and movie. So, hook one of these into your system and enjoy the best for work and play.
Pros: It's like a miniature version of my 42" Samsung HDTV. Black gloss, 1080p, and HDCP! Can be used as a HDTV if you have a receiver and speakers. I have the unit plugged into a cable box with a DVI->HDMI adapter, and then RCAs from the cable box to receiver since it's like 20 years old and has no digital support. Ended up saving ~$150-200 instead of getting a TV with a build-in tuner and speakers. Fantastic value since it doubles as a monitor and HDTV! As usual newegg rocks the house.
Cons: Had to monkey around with putting it together at first, but didn't take more than 10 minutes. Turned out to be incredibly easy to assemble. Could benefit from HDMI, but that isn't a problem since there are really cheap adapters that immediately remedy that issue.
Other Thoughts: Those who say that it scratches easily, has no HDMI, and that it doesn't do 720p very well, DO YOUR RESEARCH!!! You must've been trashed while you were assembling it or not be good with simple shapes. I had some initial difficulty, so I studied the parts briefly and then it assembled perfectly with no scratches or damage; and I didn't use the manual at all.
For no HDMI support, get a $5 DVI->HDMI adapter. I'm watching TV in 1080i/720p right now and it works great with that adapter. It also played 720p and 1080p mkvs perfectly when I used it as a monitor before the cable guy came. I have a feeling that an adapter(s) and some messing around to find the best monitor settings for optimal playback would solve problems with a HD camera or component. It's possible to get defective units (e.g., VGA port quit working) but most of the time it just takes patience and focus while researching and troubleshooting a product you purchase.

Just what I was looking for

This user purchased this item from Newegg
Pros: The HD and the 1080P is flawless, the set up was a bit difficult but set up but wasn't that bad. Just use some type of lubricant like hand sanitizer, or some lotion and it should pop right in. Crystal clear like graphics, as a gamer using Crysis and Dead space as a test, the graphics were flawless. Upgraded from a 15'' HP stock monitor. Haha
Cons: None

Very bright and wide LCD
Reviewed By: askpcguy951 on 11/18/2009
Tech Level: high - Ownership: less than 1 day
Pros: The monitor is very bright, so watching movies or gaming on this would be excellent. I had to install one of these for a customer and my first thought was WOW such a nice monitor to look at. And this was even before powering it on. Yes the procedure for mounting the LCD onto the base could have been a bit easier but it wasn't bad. Keep the LCD in the protective wrap, lie it screen side down and line the three circles on the base with the stand. Screw it on and done.
Cons: One thing I did not like was the button placement. They are located at the right side of the display. There are no visible markings on the LCD. You have to go by memory/feel or look at the on-screen display. Even then it was a bit challenging to set contrast and the like.
Other Thoughts: If you love gloss black and the blue LED power light, this is a winner. Buttons could have been placed better or at least labeled.

Fantastic Monitor
Reviewed By: Pat on 11/16/2009
Tech Level: somewhat high - Ownership: 1 day to 1 week
Pros: The picture is unbelievable and it works extremely well with dragon age at 1920x1080. It has 50000:1 Dynamic contract ratio (Newer model perhaps because it is 2233) The stand was the easiest one I've ever put on (I put stands on display TV's and monitors at work and wish they were this easy)
Cons: There is a blinking light when you turn your computer off (blinks blue every second or two) only down side if you have your computer in your room like me, but you could always just turn it off or put tape on the light.
Other Thoughts: I picked this up at sam's club for 165 and can't recommend this enough. Some complained about the stand being hard to put together perhaps they improved this with this version because a kid could put this one on.
