Samsung SyncMaster™ 204B (Black) 20.1 inch LCD Monitor

Pros: Upscales from 1024x768 very well, very good color reproduction, low black level, 1600x1200 native resolution

Cons: Up/Down view angle is low

The Bottom Line: It's brand new and in need of recognition from mainstream reviewers. However, I would bet it's the best NEW monitor out there today.

Review: After purchasing this black version, I encountered the silver version of the same monitor. At first, ePinions did not have the black version on their site, but now that they do, I will move the black version of my review here. However, since they are ...

Pros: Upscales 1024x768 very well, great color reproduction, low black level, 1600x1200 resolution, Silver Benzel

Cons: Up/Down view angle is low

The Bottom Line: It's brand new and in need of recognition from mainstream reviewers. However, I would bet it's the best NEW monitor out there today.

Review: I'm not a huge fan of using LCDs for gaming, but with today's new faster panels, I wonder if they are ready for prime time gamers. The first LCD display I owned was the P rinceton LCD1910 19" LCD monitor. Even on ...

Cons: Failed after less than two years.

The Bottom Line: See my "Bottom Line" at end of review

Review: With my aging eyes, and doing what I do as a graphic designer, it was time to upgrade from a 17" LCD to something larger. After some research, and finding out what's available locally, I decided on the Samsung 204B. My usual haunt, Best Buy was out of ...

Pros: Excellent value, fantastic picture

Cons: Wouldn't mind built in USB, speakers, or video inputs.

The Bottom Line: Don't hesitate at all, buy these with confidence.

Review: I waited and waited to replace my triple 19" monitor setup with flat panel displays. It wasn't that I couldn't find any monitors I liked, it was because I wasn't thrilled with the idea of spending over $1000 for new monitors. Then came the "Black ...

Pros: Cost, Brightness, Performance, 3 year warranty, SAMSUNG SUPPORT!!!

Cons: Line of dead pixels, but was under warranty.

The Bottom Line: Good monitor for all around, and great support. Also, got a $50 mail in rebate that made this a sweet deal at the time.

Review: I bought this LCD monitor Sept. of 2006 and have been satisfied with it ever since. It comes with very useful and easy to use software that allows you to dial in the contrast and color settings to match your environment and preferences. The display is ...

Pros: large display, great contrast, very sharp text display, and vivid colors

Cons: none of note

Review: This is a first rate LCD monitor: large display, great contrast, very sharp text display, and vivid colors. $500 at Best Buy. I do a lot of test work, and this monitor is beautiful with MS Word, Excel, various programming IDEs. It's great to have this ...

Pros: GREAT Sound Quality, Good Battery life, Affordable and Comfortable

Cons: None!

Review: We have been using the 320 for about 6 months and can't find anything wrong. It has good battery life, excellent sound quality, even in noisy environments and on the other end, too. The charge time is comparable at under 2 hours. Comfortable, light, and ...

Pros: Great color quality, pivots to portrait mode, locked onto analog signal correctly first time.

Cons: Software adds non-optional Startup and tray icons that many users won't need.

The Bottom Line: Great display quality, easy to use. Useful pivot feature. Software works but could be better thought out.

Review: I got this monitor as a gift and I am extremely pleased so far. Industrial Design: The monitor has very clean and simple attractive looks. The up/down adjustment is smooth (though I wish it would go just a bit lower, though when you try to ...

Pros: LARGE viewing area, very crisp image.

Cons: Viewing angles. Pixel pitch a bit small.

The Bottom Line: If you can live with the two issues I noted (I can easily deal with them), then it is an awesome unit.

Review: I own a 930B, the Samsung 19 inch monitor and it has a awesome picture. So when it came time to buy a replacement for another 19 inch CRT, I decided to take the plunge and buy an even larger Samsung model. Overall this monitor is crisp and clean, and ...

Pros: The monitor has a beautiful picture. I loved the monitor stand. It looks nice.

Cons: - Shoddy quality control. - Software is annoying and poorly conceived.

The Bottom Line: not approved: bad quality control outweighs the positives described by the other reviewers. The aggravation and waste of my time add up to a negative review

Review: I purchased this product via Newegg almost 5 months ago and It worked beautifully untill.... My 204B developed a line of dead pixels across the screen about two thirds of the way up. Needless to say, this was unacceptable. I contacted Samsung tech ...
