I’m upgrading from a 24″ HP monitor with I really liked, but got tired of waiting for HP to release their new 27″ display. I resolution on this is really really good. I like the non-glare screen .. Set up on my new HP computer was very easy. I’m a photographer, and can really use the extra screen space the 27″ display gives. This thing also looks really cool on my desk. I like the LED on/off switch. Just swipe your finger over the lower right hand corner of the frame and it switched on, then the lights go off and become invisible. I’ve always been partial to HP products, but couldn’t bee happier with this one.

Overall, a very nice and attractive monitor. Works fine as my ‘extended’ monitor. Only reason I didn’t give it a 5 star was that the On/Off switch is not really a switch per sey… instead it is a place on the lower right of the face that all you are supposed to do is ‘Touch’ to turn on or off. Mine rarely works as it is supposed to. So I just leave it on all the time and just shut the lid on my laptop to remove any image to the screen. Otherwise I might spend 5 minutes trying to “Touch” the right spot with the right amount of tensil pressure to get it to turn on… or not. Can be frustrating. Like I said though… all other features are very nice. Just wish it had a old fashion on/off switch.

I recently bought this LCD monitor as an upgrade from the Samsung Syncmaster 2494HM. I was using the 2494HM as a monitor for my Macbook and for my PS3. The 2494HM was a great monitor but my PS3 games seemed a bit blurry. Plus without a remote, it was a pain to switch inputs since the lettering on the display is so dark that I could not select the settings without always using a flashlight.
Therefore, I paid the extra money and bought this P2770HD. The extra three inches make a big difference and the image is amazing! The Macbook resolution stays at 1900×1080 but now my PS3′s image is crystal clear! Games are much more vibrant and it great to have a nice remote and the on-screen display is 100x better that the other model.
The only downside is that the monitor does not have a height adjustment. You can’t beat the price and while Apple makes a 24 LED that costs much more and Apple will come out with a 27inch version soon, this monitor has amazing picture quality for the price.

Love this monitor! Construction is solid; the finish is beautiful and – most important – the images are excellent for all types of use.
The Samsung’s default screen resolution is 1920 x 1080. I strongly recommend using that setting.
Installed in minutes. I am using Windows XP and needed to update the driver. Grabbed it from the Samsung Support Site (rather than using the disk included in the package). I also adjusted the Brightness setting down to 50; the factory default was about 95 – way too bright.
There are less expensive 27″ monitors. In my opinion, in this product category you get what you pay for. I recommend this as very good product for a reasonable price.
