Samsung SyncMaster 970P review
ZDNet UK reviews the Samsung SyncMaster 970P, a 19-inch LCD monitor with a minimalist look.
The Samsung SyncMaster 970P combines excellent performance with a uniquely clean design. The monitor’s bezel has no buttons of any sort, and the connections, typically located on the back of the panel, have been exiled to a separate block that’s connected to the monitor by a lone cord. This arrangement gives the 970P a very simple look, with just one visible cable and no other visual distractions, but it makes adjusting the picture somewhat more complicated. At £299 (ex. VAT), the SyncMaster 970P is expensive, although we think its top-notch performance, flexibility and design are worth the price.
ZDNet liked the simple design, with the control buttons laid out of sight, and the video and power connectors likewise relegated to a separate block outside of the monitor’s body itself. You also get a rotary jog-dial. Sounds like Apple-inspired, indeed! Color-reproduction was found to be good, save for some pink flushes.
The monitor got an above-average score of 7.2, meaning it’s good but not quite an excellent choice yet. I’d say the price factor is a hindrance, at £299.
This LCD is a great choice for anyone who wants an uncluttered desktop.
