Average Monitor.......2007-10-17
The resolution is good but not excellent. The monitor's base is not stable, it slightly rocks (left-right-left-right) while you are typing and makes some noise. I have checked it several times and nothing is loose or broken. It is just the way that it was built. (Engineers???)
Great Monitor, Great Price.......2007-07-23
My son hooked it up and it works beautifully.
The picture is clear and crisp. Nice price, too!
A good value, especially since I got it during
the free shipping period!
Decent Monitor.......2007-01-15
I've owned Viewsonics in the past and have always been pleased with them. With this one, I knew it was one of their cheaper models but felt that since it was a Viewsonic I'd still get a great product. It's a decent monitor, but the color display could be better. It's overly contrast-y. Colors are way to o bright. I've adjusted and re-adjusted the color but with little improvement. Also, it does not have an adjustable or swivel neck, so how it comes out of the box is how it stays.
Overall, it's a decent, cheap monitor.
Great Value.......2007-01-12
I purchased this monitor for my Mother as a Christmas gift to replace her small 15" CRT. It works great and was so easy to setup that at 75 year of age she was able to do it by herself. She enjoys the extra room on her desk and the larger, clear screen. She even thinks the speakers sound good. I don't think you can beat the value.
Great Buy.......2007-01-09
I don't know much about computer equipment, so when I wanted a flat panel monitor for my computer I asked my local IT guru for some help selecting a good one. He found me this beauty and I am thrilled to have been directed to a high quality item with such an unbelievably reasonable price.

Left side of title is thinner than right side.......2007-08-23
This monitor came with the ACER Aspire T180 computer package.
As I look at the blue and gray title bars on top of the page, the bars are slanted up from right to left and is very noticeable. The bars become thinner on the left side. There are no adjustments to fix that.
No matter how good the color is, this is unacceptable.
I'd have to return the whole computer package.
great monitor!!!.......2007-08-09
This is an excellent monitor at an excellent price. I needed to buy 37 new flat panel monitors for my library system (thank goodness for grant money!). Amazon's price for this monitor was at least $50 less than state contract price for the same model. What a deal! And the monitors look so good, too. All my librarians are very happy with this purchase.
I am not disappointed.......2007-07-24
I received my monitor on time, it is in great condition and was easy to adjust to my needs
Monitar review.......2007-06-07
Monitor is a no nonsense item. No frills and adequate for my needs.Off on switch sometimes needs to be used more thn once to turn on the screen other wise good product.
Perfect size, great resolution.......2007-06-04
Doesn't get any better. This monitor is small, so it doesn't take up much room on the desk. The resolution is great and the price is unbeatable!

Problems after 6 months........2007-08-18
After 6 months of using the monitor it started to develop problems. The adjustment buttons on the front of the monitor are randomly going off. It is still under warranty, but the closest repair center is 400 miles away and I have to pay for the shipping both ways! It still works, but the buttons going off by themselves are very annoying because a menu screen is always popping up.
Good picture, buttons hard to read.......2007-08-02
I bought this monitor to replace a Dell monitor that died. The price is good and the image is clear (probably better than the Dell it replaced). My only complaint is that the brightness, contrast, etc. buttons are small with black on black images, and they're hard to read. This is not a giant problem, since I set them once and haven't needed them since.
Great Monitor!.......2007-06-08
This is absolutely a quality 17" color monitor and a great value (about USD 150 after rebate).
Works falwlessly and guarantee and support are terrific
Harold Skyles.......2007-05-13
I had a 17 inch dell monitor and it quit on me. I was looking for something similar to replace it with. The 720n fit the bill. The picture is crisp and clear. The colors are outstanding, and the price can't be beat.I am very happy with my purchase and will continue to shop at Amazon.
love it!.......2007-05-06
replaced my big ole' gray whale of a monitor with this slim, black one.
Sharp and crisp - I love it! Highly recommend it.

Great LCD Monior Deal.......2007-12-06
This is a great quality little monitor. I was worried whether it would be big enough at 17 inches, but it's actually the perfect size. ViewSonic makes great stuff - my other home monitor is a 17-inch CRT that's about 8 years old, and the picture is like brand-new. I use ViewSonic 19-inch and 15-inch LCDs for editing in my studio, and they are superb. So I trust the ViewSonic name. I needed a new monitor to fit into a small space downstairs, and this was perfect. Detail is good, color is good, though I expected a little more contrast. That seems to be getting better as it gets more use. I'm really happy with the purchase. A freind of mine got an off-brand for a little less money, but the picture and clarity aren't nearly as good. I say go for the quality, as this will be something you live with for years.

Customer Reviews:
I was disappointed.......2007-08-05
I have been using a 15" dell flat screen monitor at my home. I needed a new monitor for my office, and decided to upgrade my home monitor with this 17" Samsung, and take the Dell to work.
The resolution on the Samsung was disappointing. Simple type was slightly muddy. I played with the various controls, finally came to the conclusion that the product is inferior to the inexpensive Dell monitor I already had. When I unplugged the Samsung, and replaced it with the Dell, I was relieved! Much easier on the eyes.
I took the Samsung to my office, and placed it at a workstation that doesn't get much use :-(
Next time I purchase a monitor, I'm going to go to an actual store (!) (something I don't do much anymore) and look at the screen before I make my purchase.
My advise is the same to you. Make sure that you are happy with what you see. You're probably going to spend a lot of hours staring at this thing.
Nice monitor.......2007-06-24
Good picture, good price and no dead pixels in either of the Samsung Syncmasters thet I bought (a 17" and a 19"). I have seen better pictures on other monitors but not for this price. I am very pleased with both of my Samsungs.
Perfect monitor for those over age 50.......2007-04-11
This monitor is the perfect size for those over age 50, makes everything easier to read not to mention an unbelievably great price. My company bought the same type of monitors and spent 80 dollars more than I did on each monitor.
An Excellent Product.......2007-04-07
This LCD screen was very easy to hook up - via regular monitor port - and the software easy to install and useful. Having only worked with CRTs, I was amazed at the clarity of the screen, the vivid colors and the total lack of any missing pixel problems that I've read about other screens I researched here. The software was helpful in calibrating the screen for my specific use and home environment. And, it was easy to use as well.
The price was right, the shipping was great - fast and free ! One problem though -- UPS left the box right outside my apartment door. It's a large building with a school directly across the street. Ths was a definite no-no!
That aside, I am very pleased with this item and recommend it.
There I go buying another monitor.......2007-03-19
Samsun is one of the best. This one was perfect in everyway. Great buy.

Customer Reviews:
It works like magic!.......2007-11-29
This product is just what I needed. I use a 17 inch monitor and the pricacy screen fits like a glove. There are sticky tabs that come with the privacy screen sheet to hold it up against the monitor that might distract you from time to time but what the heck, just ignore them.
Perfect!.......2007-10-27
Just what I was looking for ... especially when it involves privacy issues in Healthcare.
Doesn't work unless you are next to monitor.......2007-08-06
The viewing field with this product in place is far too wide. You can stand 45 degrees from the monitor and still see the screen. You practically have to be standing at a 90 degree angle from the screen to have it blank out. Most LCD monitors are difficult to read from that angle anyways.
Returned mine.
Terrible product, Read why.......2007-04-05
First of all the product does not totally inhibit the ability of someone sitting next to you on an airplane seeing your screen, it just creates a more dark shadow of what's on your screen. Second, if your screen did not have a glare before it will now with this product. Third, there is a distracting notch at the top of the filter so you have this annoying thumb sized area and the filter does not cover. Do not waste you money on this 3M so-called privacy filter.
decent for the price.......2007-01-12
I'd been looking for a privacy filter but everything I found was almost $200 for the same type of product. This isn't 100% effective (due to the angle of my desk), but it serves its purpose for where my desk is situated, plus you can't beat the price.

Samsung SyncMaster 740BX LCD Monitor.......2007-12-12
Item was ordered "standard" shipping & received "undamaged" in five business days. Monitor instructional CD is clear and thorough. Five minutes to connect after reading the instructions. Monitor is exactly as advertised. It is clear, sharp, & pleasing to look at, and has no quirks or malfunctions. Do not know how it will perform for gamers or graphics.
Samsung 17" Computer Flat Screen.......2007-10-22
The product is exactly what I wanted and was exactly as advertised. Easy to set up. Works perfectly. Arrived in two business days as ordered.
Adjustable Height is Great.......2007-07-21
I ordered this moniter for use at work. I didn't notice a difference, until I saw a co-workers moniter after a days use of the Samsung. The image of the Samsung is better, and the adjustable height is great. My neck used to be sore after work, now it feels great.
Great buy!!!.......2007-05-14
Excellent image quality and size. Don't waste your money in expensives monitors, this performs great. I'm in the photography business and I see a lot of pictures and you won't regreat on this one. good luck!

This monitor was recommended by Consumer Reports as a "Best Buy" and at $185 I can't argue! It has amazing color, wonderful clarity, and has been completely trouble free since it was installed.

The 15-inch Magnavox 15MF605T HD-ready flat panel LCD TV is a perfect fit for your home's smaller rooms, such as the kitchen or your bedroom. It features a standard, 181-channel NTSC tuner, but is fully capable of high-definition display when connected to an optional HDTV source. This progressive scan display maximizes the picture quality of progressive-scan DVD players, set-top boxes, and digital video recorders. This ultra-slim set measures less than 6.75 inches deep with its included table stand, and it can also be wall mounted with an optional hardware kit.
The 15MF605T features a 4:3 aspect ratio for viewing standard TV in fullscreen format with selectable 16:9 mode. It has a 1024 x 768-pixel resolution for compatibility with 1080i, 720p, and 480p DTV signals. Other features include a 130-degree horizontal viewing angle, fast 16 ms (millisecond) response time, 450 cd/m2 (candela per square meter) brightness rating, and 400:1 contrast ratio. (The higher the contrast ratio, the greater a TV's ability to display subtle color details and not get washed out by ambient room light.) The 2D comb filter separates chrominance (color) from luminance (brightness) information in the video signal for independent processing to improve picture resolution and minimize distortion. This set also offers the Smart Picture features that automatically adjusts picture settings to optimal levels, 3D motion adaptive de-interlacing, Picture-in-picture and split screen functionality, V-Chip parental controls, and tri-lingual menu displays (English, French, Spanish).
This set has two built-in stereo speakers that produce 3 watts per channel (for 6 watts of total power). It can produce an immersive surround sound field via Dolby virtual surround sound, and the Smart Sound feature keeps volume levels constant while flipping through channels and commercial breaks.

- Composite AV (RCA) In: 1

DON'T BUY IT!!!!!!.......2007-12-23
I bought this not even 2 years ago for small use in kitchen. Well,suddently not working,got it checked and main ciruit board is shot. Will cost more to repair than it cost which was over $300 in 12/05. Magnavox just told me today( becuase of one yr warranty) they will sell
me another one for $218 plus tax and have only a 3 month warranty.They probably were going to send me a refurbished one and I declined. THis TV was only for morning coffee use and while I cooked in kitchen. I usually don't buy an extended warranty but after dealing with this electronics company , I guess we will have to rethink it. I will never BUY another Magnavox TV again and suggest the same for anyone else.
Stay away from this TV........2007-11-15
I have owned this TV for about 10 months and am currently looking to replace it. The sound is TERRIBLE. Even though the volume goes to 100. The actual sounds tops out around 25 (the rest is for show). I tried hooking up external speakers, but it just amplifies the static & makes the problem worse. The picture quality is also very rapidly decreasing (fuzzy). Also DISH Networks universal remote is NOT compatible with this set. So plan on keeping 2 around if using DISH. Finally.... Check out MAGNAVOX's own website. They don't even offer support for this TV. Should say something about the quality.
Satisfied Customer.......2007-05-14
The Magnavox 15MF605T 15" LCD Flat Panel TV is a joy to watch. The picture quality is detailed and the sound is very clear. The HD quality from this product really shows. So far, I'm am very satisfied with this purchase.
It's ok if you want a simple 15" tv with a few extra inputs.......2007-04-15
The monitor works well, the picture is good, I've had it maybe 6+ months and bought it for the office. I hooked it up to a cable and did a quick scan and it worked.. BUT when i tried to connect it to a HD ant, I found that it wouldn't pick up HD without an external tuner. This is the reason for the 3-Star rating - to me any 'monitor' that requires an external HD tuner, isn't HD. For me this is nothing more than a flat panel monitor with a standard tuner and few extra connections (something you can find at any computer store). I probably should give it a high rating since I haven't had a problem with it along with the fact that it only cost me about $100 (refurbished).
Hmmm, what did I miss?.......2007-01-16
Maybe with time this will work itself out...but right now, I can't seem to get the darn thing to work well. Granted I live in a place where there is no cable; granted the instructions are written so small I can hardly read them. I'm not finding it easy to get this TV to work well! It's difficult to even get the color right when I'm watching a DVD... Oh well, maybe I'll edit this in a few weeks. I'm a little disappointed...
