Customer Reviews
►I am extremely happy with these monitors (I bought two and use them side by side). They are very bright, clear, and crisp with the DVI inputs (note that they come with DVI and VGA but not HDMI inputs). I don't do a lot of graphics-intense gaming so I can't comment on how they hold up in those conditions.

I'm sure there are better monitors out there (for a lot more money) but my 20/25 vision can't see any imperfections.

►It is what it claimed to be. 22 inch monitor. Received, plugged in, booted computer, changed resolution to 1680x1050. Viola! Had it working in about 5 minutes. Tilt can be adjusted somewhat. No adjustment to height, no USB ports or anything like that. Came with digital and analog cables.
Update: If the computer goes into power save mode, or you turn off the monitor....or anything else happens to have the monitor stop receiving a signal, it will not come back on until I reboot the computer. The monitor goes brain dead and refuses to recognize that there is a digital signal coming into it.

Product Description
Imagine a sculpture that doubles as a valuable business tool. That describes the Samsung 2233SW 21.5" widescreen LCD monitor perfectly. Its soft curves, rich piano black finish and clear acrylic accent bar lend distinctive style and sophistication to your desk. Its clean look extends even to the back, with an integrated housing that hides all your cables. And when you turn it on, the 2233SW more than lives up to expectations. The 16:9 aspect ratio provides more room for multitasking. 1920 x 1080 full HD resolution gives you the highest resolution possible. The 5ms response time and 15,000:1 dynamic contrast ratio mean razor-sharp, detailed motion video. Exclusive Samsung technologies give you rich color with natural skin tones. With Aspect Ratio Control, the 2233SW won't stretch 4:3 content to fill the widescreen. Whether you're viewing 5:4 or 4:3 content, it will always be distortion free. The 2233SW also offers you a Custom Key, for quick, one-touch access to the Samsung picture optimization function you use the most. And an energy-saving Power Consumption Control lets you set your 2233SW to turn off automatically at a specific time. Beauty inside and out. With the Samsung 2233SW, it's not hard to imagine.

Customer Reviews
►I was looking for a nice large monitor to attach to my 15 inch macbook pro. I[...]The only problem i have encountered is it is a bit difficult to get the base attached to the monitor. The socket in which it goes is very tight and it took a while and a lot of force to get it in there. The directions about this part were very unclear.

Once the monitor was set up i plugged it in to the wall, then my computer through the included dvi cable and powered it on. Picture showed up in full resolution right away with no need to install drivers or make any adjustments.

This monitor works great as a second monitor, or even as the only monitor with the macbook closed. THe picture is great and this monitor has a 16x 9 aspect ratio instead of the normal 16x10. This makes it great for watching movies or online tv shows.

Great product and great value.

►Great monitor at a great price. Beautiful image quality - significant improvement over my NEC 1760 monitor. Had no problem attaching the base.

►This monitor has a great picture and works flawlessly with my MacBook. The 16:9 aspect is perfect for watching DVDs and hulu.com. The design is slick and modern, and the glossy screen is vibrant. For under $150.00 how can you go wrong?

The built in speakers are a little quiet, but better than my notebook's built in speakers.

When connecting with a Mac, I recommend turning the monitor's auto sleep function off, as it would sleep before I could get my Mac to output video.

By C. P. Vasquez

►I was in the market for a monitor to replace my 17in LCD that came with my desktop, and although there was nothing wrong with mine, I wanted to have a bigger screen to be able to have two word documents open side by side for school and work purposes. I also wanted something that was reasonably priced, and also have the flexibility of playing games and watching movies from time to time, and this monitor by far meets all my requirements.
The wide screen is perfect for viewing documents without having to change the settings on the resolution in which the letters would be so small to read, and for this price I was not able to pass it up.
The build in speakers are adequate, however when I am listening to music or doing anything related to media I enjoy the full sound that my logitech speakers provide, needless to say I was not interested on the sound the speakers provided, only on the image the monitor has.
The monitor comes with the software and drives on a CD, but I did not even open the package, I just pluged it in and I let Vista find the latest drivers for it and I had no issues updating the latest drivers and installing them (although it was not necessary).
Overall I am happy with the purchase and I would recommend this monitor to anyone looking into upgrading without having to spend too much money. The case of the monitor itself is sleek and looks really good, and if it was not because of the HP logo, I would confuse it with the Samsung brands cause it looks like my plasma TV.
