4.0 out of 5 stars Awesome Monitor with 1 small draw back, August 3, 2008
By 
Pete (Vancouver, WA United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Samsung SyncMaster 2053BW 20-inch LCD Monitor (Electronics)
My girlfriend and I bought 2 of these monitors with our new computer purchase back in May. Here we are 3 months later and I'm still L O V I N G them! I have 2 of them to run on dual display mode and can't stand looking at anything else. The colors are crisp, the viewing angle is just awesome, and I can't say enough great things about owning these displays. The only minor draw back is the stands that come with them. I opted to purchase a monitor stand and tried to remove the sections that click into the lcd itself. Well, I've been tugging, wiggling, and fighting with this small peice of plastic for 3 or 4 days to no avail! I tried finding how to remove stand in the instructions and came up with nothing. I logged onto samsung.com and chatted with a Tech who had no idea how to help me. So I'm stuck with the monitors free floating in air having part of the base still attached.

With all of that aside, the rest of the monitor receives a definite 5 stars, hands down. It's only the base that shortens the rating to 4 stars.

5.0 out of 5 stars Best I have seen!!!!!, July 13, 2008

This review is from: Samsung SyncMaster 2053BW 20-inch LCD Monitor (Electronics)
I was looking for a second monitor to pair with my 24" Dell. I tried the newest model of Dell and was horrendously surprised by all the problems with a basic picture, mis-colors, bleeding, bad angle, etc....

Which led me to good reviews of the last model of this Samsung 20". All I can say is with the DVI input it's very close to the 24" Dell quality. Very clear, color is great out of the box, angles are good. If you are buying this and going to use the VGA connection only, please just buy the cheapest monitor you can find, as the quality is average at best. With DVI, it's the best out there.

This is a phenomenal monitor, THUMBS WAY UP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

5.0 out of 5 stars Great!, August 7, 2008

topher (California) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Samsung SyncMaster 2053BW 20-inch LCD Monitor (Electronics)
I got this as part of my payment for a gig I did for one of my clients. I was just going to sell it when I was done with the job, but decided to keep it instead. I was a little annoyed that I couldn't get the stand off the thing so I could mount it on a desk mounted lcd arm, but after a call to the manufacture, it was cleared up. Apparently, all you have to do is just apply force and pul really hard to pull the small stem portion of the stand out. Im a photographer, and I wouldn't do much color correcting with this screen, but in a pinch it would do with a color correction device like a monaco optix. Ive played cod4 (xbox 360) through vga and it was pretty good. No trailing.
