Advantages: Sleek Design, 2ms Response Time, 22" Widescreen & Easy Configuration

Disadvantages: Slightly Dodgy Stand Set-up

The Samsung SyncMaster 2232BW is the latest in Samsung's TFT monitors range and looks great. The monitor has a smooth design to it and beautiful curves which isn't common with TFT's. Samsung have made the design similar to there HD LCD TV's which is a step in the right direction for sure.

Setting up the monitor wasn't as simple as I thought it would be. I was a bit surprised that the stand didn't immediately click into the rubber slot of the actual monitor. It took some encouragement to get it to click into place. After I got that out of the way I powered the monitor and inserted the software provided into the PC and simply followed the instruction wizard, which I should add is very simple. This configures the monitor to how you want it, brightness, resolution etc.

Specification and Features:

- 22in widescreen TFT
- 1,680 x 1,050 resolution
- 2ms response time
- 300cd/m2 brightness
- 1,000:1 contrast ratio
- DVI-D with HDCP
- VGA
- Natural Colour Pro software utility
- 2yr RTB warranty
- 517(W) x 210(D) x 419(H) mm
- Weight 5kg.

Overall the Samsung SyncMaster 2232BW is a decent TFT monitor; with a large 22inch widescreen display you can't really go wrong. I've used it for general use, gaming and watching movies. The fast 2ms response rate is very good for gaming and also delivers a sharp clear picture when watching movies. The monitor doesn't have USB hubs or integrated speakers, most monitors don't nowadays as its much better to plug in your own sound. The monitor is very versatile in its use, I recommend it and costs under £200.

Summary: Affordable Decent TFT Monitor
