Samsung SyncMaster B2230 Unboxing / Review

Just bought the Samsung LCD monitor model B2230. Its really beautiful and the graphics are great! I bought this during the PC fair at Persada on April 3rd for RM539.

Samsung SyncMaster B2230


The Unboxing

Specification

Whats inside:
1. Manuels: Quick Setup Guide, Warranty Card (shows above with the address in front), User's Guide (CD).
2. Cables: Power Cord, D-Sub Cable, DVI Cable. In short analog and digital cable provided. But HDMI cable not provided.
3. Others: Stand/Support, Stand Connector, Cleaning Cloth.
Free USB cup warmer and Headset.

Since my cpu is pretty old version, I use the DVI cable and kept the analog cable.

Beautiful design with touch screen features

Something different about this LCD as oppose to my BenQ model is the touch screen feature.The button shown:Menu button/Magic bright/Brigtness/Auto Adjustment/ On off button. They look really stylish and beautiful but the part that i dont like is that I need to find the off button in the dark before i sleep.

Magic Eco is a power saving mode. You can adjust 50/75/100% power saving.
Magic angle. You can adjust in the menu whether you are lying down, sitting, standing. Basically you can see the screen clearly from every angle.
1080 HD: Support Full HD
70 000 Dynamic Contrast which is rather high compare to the other competitors.
Soft power off: Consume 0.3walt of power during standby mode. Normally its 45walts. So you can save electricity.


Beautiful design with great display and touch screen buttons. Full HD with 70,000:1 Dynamic Contrast . Can be viewed in every angle plus power saving mode. This LCD is a great buy!

The one I just bought is tilted significantly forward when assembled, does yours?

To answer your question, I have make a new post inspired by your question. There are pictures that shows the maximum range of tilting backward and forward. You can compare the picture with your LCD.

Hope that the solution to your problem is the need to tilt the LCD.

If you are convince that there is a manufacturer defect then you will need to contact Samsung.

Please leave your name/nickname if you choose to reply as it can get pretty confusing when there is multiple anonymous comments.
