I bought this lcd to have dual screen and i love it. When it came, it has some stuck pixel but it's good now. Compare to my old 19in lcd this one it's way sharper and brighter. |

Pros: - Ultra Bright- Clear picture- Flawless operation Comment:
I bought this LCD (having a network of 8+ computers on my home family network) and found its quality very impressive. It put most of my other LCD's to shame as it brightness REALLY shows when placed beside my older LCD's (even though they are good quality LGE, DELL, SAMSUNG's LCD's). Get this when its on sale and you won't be disappointed. |

Cons:
- Ergonomics very brief
Pros: - Design and finishing- Good reactivity- Colors better after setting- Black deep, good contrast- No dead pixels Comment:
Bought this screen on monday and received it today. After settings the screen is more reactive and the colors are better. Forget those who talk about bleeding you will only notice a VERRY small bleeding at computer startup or on black screens. If you have to choose between this screen or another you should definitely take this one. Highly recommended. Getting a second one for dual screen as soon as I can.

Very small amount of bleeding. That's it
Pros: Insane ColorI bought on sale for 200$ (from 300) Beautiful bodyworkNo Dead Pixels2MS response :O 22" is alot bigger then I thought"Sounds cool? (Tee-2-Twenty) :P Comment:
Don't know why people complain about the stand wobbling, I have no problem... buy a better desk worthy of the monitor :P About the Bleeding: Its about | | much bleeding at the top and bottom, ONLY noticable when I'm booting up. Color looks amazing, I have my 19" hooked up along with this 22" and when I put them sideby side and you notice 2 things right away: Quality and Size, Both favoring the T220. I use my 19" to talk to people on Xfire/MSN and I can't stand it, I need to be looking at the beauty of the T220. Very good buy! |

Pros: samsung brandsleek designglossyDESIGN Comment:
I bought this lcd screen for my third server computer. It is great, there is a red led that lits when you push ( touch) the power button. Control buttons are located on the right side of the screen. Even if it add style, I don't like the glosy touchI rather go with the new lgs or something that will not be glossy. Last thing, the 20 000:1 contrast isn't that HIGH,my 10 000:1 lg is ''kinda brighter''. I recomment this lcd to everyone who wants a BeAUTIFULL glossy lcd monitor. Go check LG if you don't want gloss lolll |

-only 1.... The CABLE length....
Pros: -Great color-Nice to look at-Easy to install-No Dead Pixels Comment:
So i got my monitor yesterday finally!! After 3 days of being unable to ship due to "Adverse Weather Conditions" and i must say it was well worth the wait! This monitor is amazing! The color is top notch and its just a well made product.. Only MAJOR problem i had is the cable length to hook the monitor up to your video card.. This cable is like 3 feet long and 100% usless. My computer is probably about 5 feet away from my monitor and as im setting this thing up im cursing because i know im going to be a few feet short and i was...... I dont know what Samsung was thinking with this cord, so unless your PC is right beside your monitor get ready to buy a new cord (mine cost me 61$)... other than that im very happy with this monitor |

Magictune does not work with GTX 260?
Pros: No Dead-PixelsAwesome! Comment:
This monitor is great. Playing games maxed up with GTX 260 couldn't look any better. I was deciding between this and the 2053BW version because people were saying how much better this is. I don't know how the 2053BW is but I can tell you this monitor is amazing. The finishing on this is awesome as expected from Samsung. |

Overall this monitor is superb, Can't go wrong with Samsung they make the best monitors out there from scratch. If your looking for a good 22 inch LCD monitor then this is the best choice for the price and quality. |

Cons:
Colors are on the blue side before calibration.Strong backlight bleeding on top and botttom.Low quality stand.
Pros: Good looking monitor. Comment:
I just got this monitor and i must say i'm a bit dissapointed. It's not a bad monitor it's just not worth the price asked by Samsung. The 2253BW is as good (both share the same weaknesses) and cost less. Luckily i did not paid the full price for my T220 i got it for 249.99$. If i had to describe this monitor i would say style over susbstance. First the colors are on the blue side using the default settings and on the red side using the movie MagicBright setting. Other MagicBright settings (Internet, Text, ...) only play with the brightness and contrast and are mostly useless. I've seen worse and the monitor is easy to calibrate even manually but still at this price i would expect better calibration. The backlight is really bad on top and bottom of the screen. Luckily it's only on the top and bottom of the screen and it's constant but if you play dark game like The Witcher or Oblivion you will definately see the backlight and will need to get used to it. Sadly there's no option in the setting to reduce the backlight (unlike my Sharp HD TV where i can reduce the backlight when i'm watching horror movies). Reducing the brightness a lot (around 45-50 out of 100) makes the backlight less visible (it's still visible) but doing so will make the white looks ... not really white. Dynamic contrast is again not a viable option to chose (like all LCD monitor and LCD TV) so forget that 20000:1 contrat ratio it's only marketing. Finally RTA when set to 2 (default is 1) induce artifacts in some game (like WoW). Is this monitor 2ms when RTA not set at its maximum setting ? I don't know but i did not see any difference between RTA set to 1 (default) and RTA disabled so ... Finally the viewing angle (black) is awful but it's a problem almost all low quality TV panels share. Overal bot a bad monitor. At around 200$ it would definately worth the price. But at this price the 2253BW (or Benq G2200WT, LG226 not glossy, LG 227GWT not glossy) is a far bette option ... This review was modfied by poster @ 12-18-08 10:26 AM |

Pros: Colour, clarity, contrast Comment:
Without a doubt, one of the best monitors I've ever purchased. I have dual-screen setup and these things look slick, with the touch of red on the frame and soft-touch power button glowing. Definitely worth the extra bucks over the other 22" widescreen. |

Cons:
Bad standCan't adjust height or left/right tilt, only back/foward
Pros: Beautiful lookNice image quality Comment:
Beautiful monitor, I couldn't be happier about the image quality. However, it comes with a crappy stand. I had to return one of these because my monitor was crooked (whopping 30 degree tilt to the left, no exaggeration) and there was no way to adjust it.Once you put the monitor on the stand, it's either straight or it's not - there's no way you can adjust left/right tilt. The replacement I got was good though so maybe I was just unlucky but based on other reviews of this monitor and its stand I doubt it... |

Pros: quality, image, speed, style Comment:
I guess I opted for this model due to its performance and style apects. It is a great looking monitor, 2ms performance, and when I received it,it arrived in perfect condition, no dead pixels, so I was very pleased. Overall. when price matched, it comes pretty close to other 22 inch monitors, and delivers in both looks and performance |

After seeing my buddies LCD monitor I got jealous and had to have one of my own. His is a year old now so when I bought mine it was cheaper and better and I defiantly the best bang for your dollar. You will not be disappointed with this purchase. I still cant believe I own one of these. |

Cons:
-The red trim might not suit everyone-Buttons are on the side, need to turn the monitor to configure-Touch Sensitive power button -Screw the Environmental Fee! Does paying the fee mean that I can dump this monitor anywhere on streets when I decide to upgrade after a few years?
Pros: -2ms Refresh Rate-Amazing 20000:1-Bang for the Buck-Sleek Glossy Black Body-Great viewing angles-Awesome stand-Looks like a LCD TV-Comes with both VGA and DVI cables Comment:
Very pleased with this Samsung 22" monitor.It offers great contrast ratio, and definately lookssexy. I was reconsidering it at first because I am not a big fan of the red trim, but once it is lit up, you can't really notice it. I actually got both the 22" and the 24" of this model. They are both amazing, even if you only use your computer for paperwork or internet surfing. For the $269, you can't get a monitor with a better display than this one.You should consider the 24" if you need the HDMI port! |

Cons:
Monitor stand doesn't appear to be the most stable design in the world.Outer-plastic frame has a ton of finger smudges already after calibration
Pros: Vivrant coloursAesthetically pleasing to the eye (I feel like a baller when I look at this monitor even when it's off)Samsung's Quality extends with this monitorNo ghosting for PC gamesNo power button at the front (Touch of light) Comment:
There are so many positive things about the T2x0 series of monitors coming out from Samsung. This monitor was replacing a Samsung 940BF from about 3-4 years ago due to the fact that I wanted a monitor in the widescreen format. This 22-inch model is excellent with respect to the colours it produces. The T220 is a solid all-around monitor for either gaming, movie watching or even photo editing.My only gripe with the monitor is that the bezel for the T220 gets smudged quite easily. This was made apparent when the sun's rays shone on the monitor at a certain angle. That was remedied by having the curtains closed so it's a moot point. Further more, Samsung included a cleaning cloth for the monitor so I guess it was handled correctly from their end.In summary: BUY THIS MONITOR. The only mistake I made was not getting it from NCIX. |

Cons:
The only downside I see on this monitor is that now, when I look at any other monitor, they all seem terribly inferior.I have 3 monitors at work and none of them even come close to this bad boy
Pros: Amazing Color, deep black, wonderful to look at even when it's OFF. Low power comsumption, no ghosting. Comment:
Get it while the price is low! This thing was 400$ a few days ago...Wonderful monitor with only 1 MINOR inconvenience and that's still the price (because you can get a 22in for 229$) ... this is worth it though. |

Pros: picture quality, large size, price Comment:
Fantastic monitor with a great refresh rate. Got it working with my laptop within a few minutes. Hard to go back to smaller screens with this bad boy around. |
No issues with dead or stuck pixels. Great monitor that also comes in an HD version for television.
