Samsung - 27" Curved 390 Series Business Monitor - Black

Thus far a relatively good monitor. Size of screen effective 24" is larger than you realize. I am using a 15.5" laptop (see pic for comparion). Monitor has the feature to adjust settings by using the simple button and toggle on the rear/bottom right side. It also has an specific on/off for "Eye Saver" mode. I did hook this up to my laptop and made sure to change settings so when lid is down, "nothing happens" so laptop stays on along with monitor. However, when it goes into a hiberate mode for some reason (perhaps more to do with laptop settings) the laptop seems to indicate that it has recognized external hard drives on my USB hub. I have mounted monitor on a clamp on table top mount that keeps the table top relatively clean. Great to have a large display when working on projects (see on screen fly tying model). I did knock it down a star since the versa mount thread on one of the four inserts binded and I had to force screw down. Need to do a better job insuring cutting of tread inserts. Got it to seat with a little lubricant and torquing it carefully to seat screw post into threaded insert.

This monitor works well with the new Apple mini. Now I am not a gamer so I not sure how well it works for that but for everyday computer functioning it is over the top. Would I but it again? I think so. For the price I believe I got a good deal on this setup. Just one negative. There is no Camera build into the monitor.

I bought this monitor thinking that I was buying the same size as my other Samsung monitors. Well I was wrong on that front, but I'm glad I purchased the 27 inch version of this CF390 monitor. I really like the presentation of the curved monitor, it really flows well. I also like the visual aspect of the monitor. It shows everything in 1080P at 60 hz, which is good for my working from home.
