SAMSUNG SYNCMASTER T240HD

Samsung SyncMaster T240HD (Review)

The Samsung SyncMaster T240HD is one of the best LCD monitors out there; but it really is more of an HDTV than a monitor. The display menu design is exactly the same as that of a Samsung HDTV. The ports are found at the back of the monitor, not below the monitor as it usually is.


The LCD monitor has a resolution of 1920x1200; its pixel-response rate is 5ms. The connections are the high point of the monitor. There are two HDMI ports, one DVI, standard VGA, component, optical audio, analog audio, coaxial, headphone jack and a USB port.


While these features can also be found in other LCD monitors, one would be hard-pressed to find one at its price making it one of the best LCD monitors.


However, the display had low brightness, and color reproduction proved to be a little lacking. However, the Samsung SyncMaster T240HD redeemed itself with sharp clarity and accurate flesh tones when watching DVDs. The text displayed on the screen was also sharp; this means that the monitor can be used for normal office tasks.


Despite some of these color issues, the Samsung SyncMaster T240HD is already a bargain and easily one of the best LCD monitors. While the performance may not be at par with other LCD monitors, it makes up for it with its much lower price.
