In addition to its widescreen resolution of 1440 x 900 pixels--offering native 720p high definition clarity--the 920NW has a blazing fast 5ms (millisecond) response time, perfect for playing immersive 3D games and watching action-packed movies without ghosting or pixelation. It connects to desktop and laptop PCs using a VGA/D-Sub port.
The 920NW provides native 720p high-definition resolution (1440 x 900) and a fast 5ms response rate.
This monitor's specs also include a 160-degree viewing angle (both horizontal and vertical), a high level of brightness with a 300 cd/m2 (candela per square meter) rating and a 700:1 contrast ratio. (The higher the contrast ratio, the greater a monitor's ability to display subtle color details and not get washed out by ambient room light.)
The 920NW's 19-inch screen (measured diagonally) is framed by a narrow bezel, ensuring that this monitor won't overpower your desk with its size. The monitor sits atop a rounded base that can tilt forward and backward for just the right view. The back includes a power connector, VGA (15-pin D-Sub) connector, and lock connector (for optional Kensington locks to secure the monitor to your desk). This monitor is Energy Star qualified, with a 42 watt power consumption rating and less than 1 watt of consumption in stand-by mode.
This monitor includes several Samsung technologies that enhance your viewing, including MagicColor, which improves and adjusts mid-level colors to shades the eye accepts as natural, and MagicBright, which creates an optimal viewing environment, based on the the image you're watching. It also includes the MagicTune monitor config application, which makes it simple and convenient to tweak your screen's settings.
MagicTune By now, you've probably experienced the frustration of pushing buttons on the front of your monitor to access the variety of onscreen menus to adjust its settings. Samsung has now created a software application that's designed to optimize all monitor settings, and is equipped with an intuitive GUI (Graphic User Interface) which includes many more features. MagicTune employs an advanced display technology, called the DDC/CI (Display Data Channel Command Interface) protocol, to control all monitor settings.
Colors on an LCD will adjust and will appear different to the average user when the system is changed, depending on the characteristics and performance settings of the system. MagicTune provides a Color Calibration feature that helps set the LCD monitor color to a default color standard. This feature simplifies the complex gamma correction process into a few simple steps, enabling you to enjoy the same optimized high quality color standard on every system.

Response Time -- The amount of time it takes for a liquid crystal cell to from active (black) to inactive (white) and back against to active (black). It's measured in milliseconds (ms), and the lower the number the faster the response time--translating to a smoother picture with fewer pixilated or ghosted artifacts.
An amazing deal Samsung SyncMaster 920NW 19-inch LCD Monitor is amazing. I am a computer programmer and a developer. I constantly need to have two screens. My laptop screen is great for writing code and debugging but not that great for displaying content. The Samsung Syncmaster 920NW 19-inch LCD Monitor has amazing colors, LCD makes it so the picture is crystal clear. The price is relatively cheap and shipping comes in a nice packaging and is extremely fast. Besides the fact that the color on this thing are amazing, it can also tilt back and forth allowing you to sit closely when you are programming and relaxed far when you are watching a movie. It is worth every penny. Highly recommend!
Awesome monitor The Samsung 920 NW is an amazing monitor. It looks great- black casing, sleek style- and the picture is very sharp. The colors are bright and vibrant, and it is very easy to use (pretty much plug and play- you can install the software if you want, but it was not necessary on my Vista computer). For the price (I paid around $160) you won't find anything better ANYWHERE.
nice widescreen display Great product. I love the fact that it's widescreen so that I can watch a DVD through Windows Media Player on it and do my work on my laptop.
Only thing I dislike about it (and this may be a DVI-to-VGA thing anyway) is that on my Mac, the pixel resolution quality is not as great as on the PC.
i love it the only problem is the dust on the screen. However, everything is fine. i love it.
Waw The quality exceeded our expectation. But the price was even better. ***** Dale (Trinidad and Tobago).
