Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description

If you're looking to reduce the cables surrounding your system, look no further than the Samsung SyncMaster 173S, a sleek LCD with its a space-saving built-in power supply. A reliable analog signal keeps images flowing smoothly, while the slim 7-inch stand lightens the load on your desk.

Text is crisply legible and colors are sharp, thanks to a combination of 1,280 x 1,024 native resolution, 0.264 mm dot pitch, and a contrast ratio of 450:1. The 17-inch screen is easily viewable by multiple simultaneous users thanks to a 150-degree horizontal viewing angle (120 degrees vertical).

The base detaches if you'd prefer to attach the monitor to the wall with an optional 100 mm VESA mount, but in all locations you'll find that the simple attractive black frame fits unobtrusively in any decor. Samsung provides a three-year warranty covering parts and service.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Monitor, December 21, 2003
By 
R. Alonso (NEW YORK United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Samsung SyncMaster 173S 17" LCD Monitor (Black) (Electronics)
This LCD is the perfect combination of price, performance and design. I don't have any complaint to report. It is so bright that you have to keep it at less than 50%. The colors are rich and saturated, the contrast is amazing for an Lcd. Movies and games run smooth with no ghosting at all. The built in power supply is a plus. the base is small and steady. The control bottons are the only negative that I can complain about, just because they are located at the bottom edge of the screen and the letters are written in black wich makes them hard to read or see. But once you get used to it you now exactly where to toch. I highly recommend this product.

4.0 out of 5 stars Very Good For The Price, March 12, 2004
By A Customer
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Samsung SyncMaster 173S 17" LCD Monitor (Black) (Electronics)
I just received this Monitor and I am very happy with it. I had the classic CRT Sony 17" Trinitron Monitor which was still a good monitor, but I wanted space and LCD. It's kind of different to have space on my desk. This is perfect for what I needed, it has a great picture and works well with games. I even checked CNET for reveiws on this and they had no Cons and said you would usually pay more for a model like this. I have Windows XP for a operating system so it was easy to set up. According to the manual any Windows or Mac would be easy. I adjusted the brightness to 50% since it was originaly to bright for me and it looks good. Worth the price

4.0 out of 5 stars Not bad, June 10, 2004
This review is from: Samsung SyncMaster 173S 17" LCD Monitor (Black) (Electronics)
The Syncmaster 173S that I very recently purchased is doing fine. However I wouldn't know who to blame for the broken pixels, but most likely Samsung. The constant black dot and then the blue and red one I see every so often are a bit annoying, but supposedly most LCDs come with it. It's too much of a pain to exchange it and demand for a new one or for it to be fixed, but that's a personal preference. Overall though, the crispness and clarity is amazing and i'm satisfied with that. I'd prefer the neck to have more flexibility. Size is decent at this stage in technology~
