- Touch of Color bezel - While the crystal-like bezel frame catches light beautifully, it actually reduces reflection of light off the bezel.

Rating : - Another excellent Samsung monitor
This is our second Samsung HDTV monitor and it lives up to the 32" we have. We have it connect to a HD cable box, a HDMI DVD player and an aerial. The picture is as good as you can imagine, excellent color and contrast.
There are a few issues that you might be interested in:
The sound is dreadful, not bad but dreadful. I guess Samsung assumes you are going to use a separate sound system. I put together a sound set up with some old multimedia speakers I have (Klipsch) and an optical to analog audio converter Digital Audio To Analog Audio Converter and use the cable box AC socket to power up the audio system but most people don't want to figure out something like this. Samsung really should make a one piece model with decent forward facing speakers.
Our HDMI cables arrived a few days after the set so we used the component input first. On this set it's clearly softer then the HDMI inputs so if you have HDMI compatible devices, use it.
Our cable system uses HD boxes that don't talk well with the Samsung. Sometimes we get an error message that implores us to use component instead of HDMI but it goes away quickly and the box works anyway. This was a problem with our first Samsung two years ago and it hasn't been dealt with yet. Also the cable box sometimes puts out a signal that causes a slight contrast change at the top and bottom of the picture. It changes with the channel. It never happens with the DVD player or the aerial.
We live in an apartment so the aerial reception is spotty. Our 32" set which is far from the windows gets better reception then this set which is next to a window. Is this due to the tuner in this set? We can't tell yet.
This is an excellent purchase as long as you know the sound problems.
