5.0 out of 5 stars Review for the Samsung SyncMaster 151s, August 14, 2002

By A Customer

This review is from: Samsung 151S 15" LCD Monitor (Ivory) (Personal Computers)

The Samsung SyncMaster 151s is my first flat screen LCD monitor ever. It is very light, too. It's only about 9 pounds.

From what I've seen here, I am very impressed with this monitor. The screen is very bright and sharp, and the colors are amazing. There is no ghosting or any dead pixels with this analog-only monitor. DVD movies, games, and the text look impressive with the SyncMaster 151s. Setting up the monitor was very easy.

The buttons are funky. They look weird, and they are on the right side of the monitor, in a vertical fashion. The only thing this monitor doesn't have is a DVI connector, which would give you digital video. The base is slighty unsteady, also, but it's not a big issue at all.

With the SyncMaster 151s, you get excellent service and support. Samsung's website also has the latest drivers, manuals, and product registration. You will receive a three-year warning (which also includes the backlight).

Pros:

· Bright, sharp display with rich colors.

· Excellent tech support, with a warranty of three years.

· Wide viewing angles.

Cons:

· Lacks DVI connector.

· Slightly unsteady base.

Overall: 92%

Conclusion: If you are looking into joining the flat screen LCD wagon, the SyncMaster 151s is the perfect monitor for you. Gamers will actually be impressed with the analog-only monitor. No ghosting, no washed-away colors, no dead pixels, no problems.

This review is from: Samsung 151S 15" LCD Monitor (Ivory) (Personal Computers)

If you're looking for the best no-frills 15" LCD, the Samsung 151S is probably it. I checked out a huge computer mall in Taipei (NOVA), and I must have seen at least 10-15 different LCD models, including NEC, Viewsonic, Eizo, and several no-name Asian brands. The 151S stood above the rest with the most vibrant and natural looking picture, and also the most aesthetically pleasing exterior. Once you have the right settings for the "Image Lock", the text is so perfect you'll be wondering why people pay extra for a DVI interface. There is really nothing bad I can say about the 151S, which truly amazes me because I am usually incredibly nitpicky about monitors.

5.0 out of 5 stars Wow!, September 30, 2002

This review is from: Samsung 151S 15" LCD Monitor (Ivory) (Personal Computers)

I don't have a lot of desk space in my small Brooklyn apartment, so I knew I had to get an LCD monitor for the computer I was building. I didn't have the money to splurge on something top of the line, so I decided to go with this bargain model. Boy it would have been a mistake to go with something more expensive! This monitor will not disappoint, whether you want it for games or just general computing. This monitor has vivid colors, great contrast, and very bright, even backlighting across the screen entire screen. No dead pixels either. I'd recommend it to anyone.
