Samsung Touch Of Color T220 22-inch LCD Monitor Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)It isn't the design of this LCD that earns merit, although it is a rather timeless looking item and will look smart in any situation. It's the feature set, and there is certainly far more function over form than meets the casual eye!
Pros:
- Can be set to auto detect the exact input source resolution and display the image without any stretching. This is great if you play games that might need 1280 x 1024 or 1680 x 1050. Your treasured vintage game collection will still look splendid!
- Has a great software tool that will set the correct color / contrast / brightness balance. Make sure you run MagicBright after installation - the image is stellar once you have this set.
- Low power consumption - do your bit for Gaia ;-)
- The memory resident tools do not task the CPU.
- Tack sharp display with almost non-existant light bleed at the edges
- Games look superb!
- No dead pixels
- Comfortable viewing size - I find larger displays somewhat taxing on the eyes
- Has a great tool that can divide your display into various logical units - a bit mike having multiple displays - very cool as this makes apps snap into the regions just like extra displays
- Amazing price - 2ms + 20,000:1 contrast ratio + Samsung quality + auto resolution detect + much more!
Cons:
- No height adjustment - but by no means a show-stopper when you bear in mind the spec.
- Tilt only tilts away, not towards you. The assumption is that you will be looking down at the screen up to horizontal, which is ergonomically incorrect. The user should have the option to view at 90 degrees or above to avoid neck strain. I resolved this by buying a sturdy stand so I can have the mid-screen point at eye level ;-)
- No frame color options - just translucent burgundy, which looks blackish most of the time in low light conditions.
- Software installation is confusing. It recommends that you download the latest software. When you click the link, it's very unclear what you need to do. I couldn't see a option for the T220, so I just installed what was on the disk and everything ran fine. You must run the software installer using Internet Explorer, otherwise you need to manually run the install exe from the CD.

There aren’t other monitors like these anywhere. Of course.

Features
Reduces Glare While the crystal-like bezel frame catches light beautifully, it doesn’t glare harshly. In fact, it actually reduces refelection of light off the bezel. ToC monitors are easier on your eyes, in more ways than one.
Better and Safer Since the rich red color is injection molded for a blown glass effect, instead of spray painted, there’s less environmental impact.
Lower Power Consumption ToC monitors (T240, T260) are designed to be extremely efficient, and use up to a third less power than other monitors in their class. And the unique SoftPower off function lets you put it in standy mode right away, using just 0.3W.
20,000:1 Dynamic Contrast Ratio The ToC monitors continually analyze the input signal and adjust the contrast to match. The ultra-wide range gives you blacks and whites that are full of detail, even under adverse lighting conditions.
Ultra-fast Response Time 2ms GTG response (T190, T220) and 5ms response (T240, T260) ensure blur-free videos and gaming.
Exclusive MagicColor Technology Samsung’s MagicColor technology gives you richer, more natural color by enhancing the color overall (Full mode) or by enhancing color without affecting delicate skin tones (Intelligent mode).
Exclusive MagicBright 3 Technology You can make the stunning picture even better. Samsung’s MagicBright 3 technology gives you seven presets, so you can tailor your screen setting to the type of media you’re viewing. Presets include Text, Internet, Game, Sport, Movie, Print View and Custom.
Windows Vista Premium Certification ToC monitors are designed to take full advantage of everything Windows Vista OS has to offer.
Customizable Hot Key Want to open a favorite application with one button? Or connect to the internet? Or adjust picture modes? A customizable hot key puts your favorite preference or command at the tip of your finger.
Multi Screen Need some organization in your life? Multi Screen can help. You can assign applications and open windows to different quadrants of the screen, and reduce desktop clutter. You can even specify that a certain application always open in a specific quadrant, so you’ll always know right where it is.
