I had a 22 inch monitor, decided to get a 24" monitor to be easier to read and this did not disappoint. It is plenty big so I don't have to lean in to read my screen anymore and the blue light feature is incredible. If I want to watch a sporting event I can turn it off and have excellent picture color and quality, but for work and not trying to fry what's left of my vision, the blue light feature is great and you can dim it with one click too, so my vision isn't so wrecked after a day of work. I got it on sale for 99 and felt like the value at that price was excellent. Also, it swivels and will go up and down, which was something I was looking for.

My 20 year old computer speakers conked out, so I was able to reclaim that space on my desk, which allowed me to move my monitor further back by about 6 inches. The existing 20" monitor wouldn't cut the mustard any longer, so I purchased this Samsung 24" monitor to take its place. It has fit into its new space quite nicely and is just the right size. In my case, the 27 inch monitor would've been too big and unwieldy. As for performance, I am completely pleased with this monitor, as I was with the previous 20" Samsung . Samsung does know how to build a TV and a computer monitor, for sure. I found a couple of online test patterns that allowed me to set colors, contrast and hues to perfectly match my preferences for viewing. An unexpected plus was the inclusion of a built in 4 port USB hub, which allowed me to discard the old D-Link hub that I had on my desk that was used for connection of my web camera and keyboard. I'm using the HDMI video input, and the image quality is outstanding. The monitor also includes input connections for Dataport and VGA cables. I purchased my own high quality 10' HDMI cable, but a decent HDMI and Dataport cable are included with the monitor. Those cables appear to be about 6' in length. I did not unfurl them to check. A VGA cable is NOT included. THERE ARE NO SPEAKERS IN THIS MONITOR. Sound will need to come from external speakers. I'm using a spare $59 Anker Soundcore bluetooth speaker for sound. It's an absolute beast for such a small and inexpensive package. Some folks will likely dislike the fact that there are no control buttons on the front of the monitor. The power button is located on the BACK of the monitor, at the lower right hand corner. I originally thought that this would be much more inconvenient than it has been. Monitor adjustments are made by moving the power button up/down or left/right. Not a problem for me; YMMV. The monitor comes with a stand that appears to be rather substantial, but I did not use it. Since I was moving the monitor further back on my desk, I bought a separate VESA mounting stand that allows me to raise and position the monitor for an optimum viewing angle. It's worked out great. The VESA pattern on this monitor is 100x100. Considering the fact that I was able to score this monitor on sale at Amazon for $99, this has been a fantastic buy.

I normally don't write reviews, but I figured I would for this because I almost didn't purchase based on the reviews. You can mount to VESA. There is a review with pictures showing tabs to remove, this does not need to be done. The tabs are for the included mount if you wish to use it, it helps secure it to the back plate. If you chose to mount on an arm or wall mount then you use the stand off screws that are also included. See my attached picture, there are 4 standoffs, 2 sizes. The longer ones are for the top to compensate for the curve on the back of the monitor. Screw those in and install as normal. Some of the other reviews complain about the length of the included cables.... personally I would never review an electronic item based on the included cables, was happy it came with them at all and they worked fine for my needs. If they were too short for my setup, I would have just replaced them. They are probably 4ft? I have them connected to the back of the monitor, routed through the VIVO pnuematic post mount, and connected right under my stand up desk - so they were perfect length for that. If you have your computer on a side desk or on the floor maybe you need longer cables. The monitor does not have internal speakers - which I knew and didn't want since I'm using externals. I turned on the eye saver, seems to work well. 4 main reasons I ordered this particular monitor: 1: I wanted a 27" regular, and a 24" vertical setup, but I wanted the screens to match each other so I didn't have different color settings and they would look good next to each other even being different sized screens. This screen is sold in both sizes, so I have one of each and they look great next to each other. Sounds trivial, but it's harder to find than I thought - at this price point. 2: I wanted a standard computer power cable on the back so I wouldn't have 2 wall warts to contend with on the underside of my stand-up desk where the power block is. 3: Display Port - my Dell laptop for work has a dock that includes 2 display port connections, and 1 HDMI... so I wanted to use the 2 DP ports. 4: Borderless. In a perfect world it wouldn't have the bottom silver bezel either, but at this price I'm good with it and it looks decent. I hope this helps someone. Don't take a razor to the back of your new display!

Does NOT have built in-speakers, whoever put that in the description is WRONG! I was planning to use the built in speakers. So now I have to purchase external speakers to listen to sounds generated by my computer. Otherwise, the monitor has USB, HDMI, and Display Port cables provided unlike some of the other monitors. The USB connection is a type A, Not as common. The monitor has a full range of adjustments for height, tilt, rotation and the stand seems moderately stable. I'm Not impressed with Amazon's return policy for restocking, otherwise I may have returned the monitor for one with built-in speakers. I ended up using a set of purchased speakers for sound. I prefer the IPS panel over LCD, so you need to decided which is best for your situation.

Had it for two weeks, great so far!

the right size for desks with single monitor, adjustable. Good choice

Es muy buena pantalla, muy útil, se puede poner en vertical y acomodarlo fácilmente, 100% recomendado

En un monitor muy completo, el concentrador USB muy util, la calidad pues que se puede decir, es Samsung. Lo compre en el buen fin y el precio fue muy bueno.

I was looking for an external monitor to use while I work from home - business use. I made the mistake and bought a cheap $170 ASUS display for gaming thinking, if it is good for gaming it must be good for document editing. I could not be further from the truth. I sold it and bought this Samsung display twice the price and ten times the capability. This Samsung display has everything, and I mean everything except speakers which are not needed when connected to a laptop. Big 27" bright and smooth display. Document text is rendered beautifully and my presentations are sharp. Movies look great on it, especially animated films. Assembly was a breeze. No screws or tools needed. The screen rotates between landscape and portrait .... awesome sauce! I can display the entire document page and plus a bit more. The display swivels right and left and slides up and down just by a push, no levers or buttons to control. So basically, you can rotate this display screen in all three axis with a touch. It has tons of ports and comes with tons of cables, including HDMI, display port, and USB. It has a very thin bezel making it very elegant. I love sitting in front of this display to work.

Nice monitor and great picture.
