Display Tools — Samsung

Offers 1000:1 contrast ratio. Price: 214T ($859 street price); 244T ($1,699 street)

If you're the world's largest manufacturer of LCD screens, you stay on top of the latest technology. That's Samsung's position; the Korean manufacturer continues to introduce new screens on a regular basis, with unique or improved features highlighted with the term “Magic.” (MagicRotation, for example, tracks and corrects the display's orientation when users pivot it.) The 21.3in. SyncMaster 214T features a 1600×1200 maximum res, a 900:1 contrast ratio, and 178-degree viewing angle. The 24in. SyncMaster 244T offers a 1920×1200 maximum resolution; supports 480p, 720p and 1080i/p; and includes a USB hub with one upstream and two downstream ports. Both displays include analog and digital inputs and a slim narrow bezel design.
