Reviews of the Samsung 2693HM

CNET Review
The Good: Very good performance, especially for movies; 360-degree rotation; unique buttonless OSD design; good price for such a large screen.
The Bad: Flimsy, hollow plastic in back; cannot see or feel the OSD in dark; bad viewing angle from the bottom; overcalibrated "Cool" temperature setting.
The Bottom Line: The Samsung SyncMaster 2693HM proved itself to be an excellent overall performer, particularly during movie playback, and can be had for a fair price. Only a flimsy stand, an overcalibrated color-temperature setting, and a poor lower viewing angle prevent a higher recommendation for this 25.5-inch LCD.
