Amazon.com Product Description
The Samsung 206BW 20-Inch Digital/Analog Widescreen LCD Monitor offers razor-sharp, widescreen image clarity and a host of innovative features. The image quality of the 20-inch widescreen offers wide viewing angles with bright colors for a very favorable viewing experience. With a wider viewing angle (160-degree vertical and horizontal viewing angle) Samsung makes sure you can see objects on your screen even when you're leaning over to grab a snack.p With 16.7 million colors bombarding your rods and cones, you'll be impressed with the clearer, brighter imagery that this wide spectrum monitor has to offer. Another impressive feature of the 206BW is the pixel pitch, or the distance between pixels. This specification is usually measured in millimeters, and the smaller the pitch the sharper the image. Samsung offers a remarkable 0.258-millimeter pixel pitch for outstanding image clarity. The most talked about spec associated with LCD monitors is the measure of the difference of brightness levels between the brightest white and the darkest dark--the contrast ratio. With a contrast ration of 3000:1, this monitor assures crisp, easy-to-view images. Lastly, Samsung has designed this monitor with MagicColor to improve hue and saturation of colors. This function also adjusts mid-level colors to shades that the human eye accepts as natural. By enhancing the contrast ratio with MagicColor, fresh images with exceptional clarity spring to life, even on a darker screen.p Connectivity is also important when choosing a monitor. The 206BW features an advanced dual interface that is capable of handling both analog video signals for present use, and digital video signals for the future. Whatever the signal sources are, this monitor will process those signals to give you an optimal viewing experience. In addition, this monitor features a standard D-Sub 15-pin connection and a fast DVI-D connection for your high-resolution demands.p Other features include compatibility with all major operating systems (including Microsoft Vista's Premium standards) and an ultra-fast 2ms response time that virtually eliminates the "blur" that is present in 25, 16, and 12ms monitors (this is especially good news for gamers). Plus, with Samsung you have Magic Technologies, such asMagicBright3 and MagicTune, right at your fingertips. MagicBright3 is a new feature that provides the best viewing environment depending on the contents of the image you are watching, and MagicTune is Samsung's OSD (On-Screen Display) solution that provides a simple, convenient adjustment to the best image quality. The 206BW is designed to meet VESA standards to accommodate any display type. This monitor is both wall and arm mountable, so it fits almost any environment on your desk or the wall.

5 out of 5 stars Samsung 20" Monitor   October 8, 2008
Nancy Townsend (Atlanta, GA)
I am very pleased with my monitor and at how fast I received it. The description had said it had some minor cosmetic damage, but it is in perfect condition. Thank You!!!


5 out of 5 stars Wonderful! Samsung SyncMaster 206BW 20" LCD Monitor   June 13, 2008
C. Catarov (Waterford, MI)
I recently purchased (2) of these montiors for my home office and I have really enjoyed their quality and performance. They were purchased as well for a terrific price, compared to 'many, many' other monitors on the market with less quality. I would highly recommend this montior to anyone!

I bought one about a year ago, couple of months later a friend of mine bought the same one. About 3 months ago I recommended it to my nephew. Everyone's happy. This is a great monitor for the money. Ran Pixel buddy on all 3 monitors and no dead pixels. Samsung is a great monitor company with real bang for the buck. I'd buy another in a heartbeat.


4 out of 5 stars Samsung Delivers a Good Monitor   April 19, 2008
Richard Walton (Middle, USA)
I did a lot a homework before buying a monitor. I wanted a big monitor but didn't have $1800 for a 30" screen (my custom-built PC was $1800). So when I saw this Samsung model for only $269 it was easy to justify getting two screens, 40" of real-estate, at less than 1/3 of the cost of the 30" model. br / br /I suspected the 2ms response was more hype than substance - possibly manipulated data for marketing purposes. Much to my surprise, it is an accurate spec. More to the point, it can handle my games with all settings on and set to high (i.e. resolution, anti-aliasing, etc.). Also, DVD motion is quite fluid, although it may be darker than some people prefer. Text is clear - but only at the receommended resolution (which also makes the font smaller). br / br /The base is rather solid - despite what I've read elsewhere. Settings allow for a lot of customization, although I haven't really used that feature much yet. br / br /Overall, I would buy another one, and probably will as I expand my monitor set up to 3 in the near future.

Larry D. Zimmerman (NY)
This is my first LCD monitor. Color Seems to be good. Took a little to adjust but all seems to be fine. Color not as brillant as Plasma Screens but for non critical purposes this is a great low cost Screen. br /If cost is no object and you are into Graphic work it would be worth seeing this and others in action before purchasing but top quality will require 2+x's $$ to get much better. br / br /*****
