+ Nice sharp picture. No blurring or blochiness when watching movies. Plenty settings to cope with most enviroments.

- Attracts dust contantly, so dificult to keep clean. The DVI lead is a trifle short for my liking, (keep my pc under the desk".

Product Features

Screen Size in Inches	19
Screen size is measured diagonally from corner to corner.
Screen Resolution (pixels)	1440x900 (WSXGA)
The number of pixels the screen has. The more you have, the more detail the screen can display, given a high quality source. A breakdown of resolutions can be found on Wikipedia here
Response Time in ms	2
Contrast Ratio (X:1)	20000
This figure is designed to tell you how much difference there is between dark and light colours on the TV. It is quoted as a ratio, between the brightest white and the darkest black. 500:1 means the brightest white is 500 times more bright than the darkest black. Plasma screens have historically boasted better contrast ratios than LCD screens.

Plasma screens have historically boasted better contrast ratios than LCD screens.
Brightness in Candela per square metre	300
Brighter TVs, such as LCDs, tend to provide a better experience in lighter rooms, whereas TVs with a lower brightness, such as many plasma TVs, are often better suited to darker rooms.
DVI Port	Yes
DVI stands for Digital Visual Interface. Like VGA, DVI is used to connect laptops, desktops and other devices to HD TVs or monitors. You can buy a small adaptor to convert your digital DVI socket to an analogue VGA socket for use with older monitors if needed.
HDMI Interface	No
Like a scart interface but capable of carrying HD signals from or to other devices. You’ll need these to link your Playstation 3 or your Blu-ray player to your HD-ready TV.
VGA Port	No
VGA stands for Video Graphics Array. The VGA socket is used for connecting a monitor or TV to your computer. If you want to use an external monitor, TV or projector on your laptop make sure it has a VGA or DVI socket. VGA is also sometimes referred to as D-sub.

Most small flatscreen TVs have LCD screens. Some larger TVs have plasma screens. Some very new TVs have LED screens. Traditional TVs are called Standard or CRT.

This is a ratio of the horizontal to the vertical size of the screen. 16:9 is standard widescreen format for TVs, replacing the older 4:3 format.
PC Interface	Yes
If you’d like to use your TV as a PC monitor you’ll need to make sure it has a port to allow you to connect it. This is usually a VGA port, but some TVs include a newer DVI port. Adaptors are availible to allow VGA to DVI and vice versa.

Manufacturer's Description

19” LCD T Model

Artistry isn’t something that can be measured. At SAMSUNG, we believe that artistry is the result of a delicate balance between high-end design and cutting-edge technology. We’re inspired by the world around us and want to create products that are both functional and exude beauty. Introducing the T190 from SAMSUNG. Beautiful, inside and out.

Clear Contrast Ratio 20000:1

A high contrast ratio is critical for optimal viewing. Our innovative Dynamic Contrast Ratio technology delivers an unspeakable ratio of 20 000:1 – the first of its kind. By increasing the colour steps between the darkest and the brightest colours it can produce more vivid, lifelike images. So unlike other monitors, our Dynamic Contrast Ratio technology allows our monitor to outperform under any lighting condition.

Low power consumption

Power consumption is always a concern when it comes to home electronics. The T series monitor from SAMSUNG consumes only 65-70W in operation mode. Compared to other monitors, that’s a reduction of almost 30W. And with the unique SoftPower Off function, the monitor consumes a mere 0.3W when on standby. So with the T series, you can work productively at home without worrying about driving up your energy bill.

Fast response rime – MagicSpeed 2ms

The monitor supports fast response time to reduce blurring of the images.
