Big disappointment from Samsung

Pros Flat screen; reasonable cabinet size; lots of menu options; fantastic little brother...
Cons This one has problems; not as sharp as the 753DF; irregular color temp
Recommended it? No

Here's the deal: I had already owned their 17 inch model, the 753DF. I *love* that monitor. The colors are incredible (especially the blues) and the sharpness is unmatched by anything I've ever seen in a CRT of a similar size. So the 955DF seemed like an easy choice...

Great monitor for the money

byrezdawg8 Jul 8, 2003
9 Helpfuls 10 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? 1 Comment
Pros Nice no glare screen, Bright display (while in highlight mode)
Cons Large size, non-intuitive controls.
Recommended it? Yes

You can't beat the price on this monitor (around $160 if you look) for what you get. Large clear picture, mostly flat screen, fairly sharp text. The main problem that has irked me is the highlight control. It lets you brighten an adjustable section of the screen for moving video and the like, while... Read full review »

Pros Awesome value, excellent colors and text, flat screen, good controls
Cons Largish Footprint, Weight
Recommended it? Yes

I have had the Samsung 955DF monitor for about a year now and it amazes me that people complain about it. This monitor costs about $150. What are you looking for, perfection for that price? I remember buying a 17" ViewSonic for $700 back in the day and thought I was king of the world. Anyway here... Read full review »

Pros Durable, cost, picture quality
Cons Size
Recommended it? Yes

I'll be brief here as I don't have much to say, but I want to get my 2 cents in here.

This is a very high quality monitor. I've had mine for 3 years with zero problems. I has survived moves from Illinois to Ohio and then Ohio to Washington State. The display is perfect.

It is a... Read full review »

955df a good value but you get what you pay for

Pros Extremely sharp at any resolution. Bargain priced. Good warranty.
Cons Needs DisplayConfigX (shareware, $12) to provide max refresh rates (above 85Hz at many...
Recommended it? Yes

Extremely sharp .20mm dot pitch means a very sharp image at whatever resolution you choose. I've had mine for about two years. It was replaced after about a year with some flickering that we were never able to resolve so Samsung customer service shipped me a new (well, new for me) one and I... Read full review »

Great For the Average User.

Pros Sharp Picture, Price Can't Be Beat!
Cons Pretty Bad Geometry, Pretty Bad Refresh Rate at higher resolutions, Colors a tad washed...
Recommended it? Yes

Anything negative I have to say about this monitored must be taken with a grain of salt as the value can't be beat.

It took a ton of tweaking the settings to get the geometry to look decent... but it does look acceptable now.

If you are a power user or gamer who likes to run... Read full review »

Great Monitor Great Price

bysubseb Dec 7, 2004
4 Helpfuls 5 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? Comment
Pros Outstanding Picture Quality, low priced. Good warranty.
Cons None that I can think of.
Recommended it? Yes

This monitor has all the usual adjustments and features you would expect, bar a usb hub and internal speakers.
The tube used has a really small dot pitch giving really fine details, and the screen is almost completely flat for almost unnoticeable distortion. For general use the picture is... Read full review »

Great monitor value

Pros Excellent price, crisp graphics
Cons Large footprint, low resolution
Recommended it? Yes

I got my hands on these monitors for $200Cad each (I bought 2 of them) For that price I can't complain much. The colour is vibrant and image is crisp (they're powered by a Radeon 9600XT 1600*1200 @60hz) Turn on the highlight zone feature and it's almost blinding (I love that feature!)

Samsung 955DF Explained!

Pros Best for the buck 19" CRT!
Cons Does not have the refresh at higher resolution of the higher end models.
Recommended it? Yes

The Samsung 955DF monitor is in my opinion the best 19" monitor $150 will buy. It looks great at all it's supported resolutions (up to 1600x1200 @ 68 HZ) and is one of the best perfectly flat (Invar Shadow Mask) tubed monitors on the market. I have had experience with this model from Samsung for... Read full review »
