Samsung blazes away from the cloudy images of LCD monitors
with four new groundbreaking models

Samsung, a world-leading manufacturer of professional LCD and PDP products, today introduced four new LCD monitors to its award-winning line of SyncMaster displays – the 931C, 971P, 215TW and 225BW.

Alvin Lam, assistant product manager for IT product at Samsung Electronic H.K. Co. Ltd. commented: “The release of this new series of monitors sets a great standard within the industry in terms of picture quality, convenience and style. At Samsung, we are proud of our innovative products, and the newly unveiled SyncMaster LCD monitors, together with their ergonomic design and market-leading picture quality technology, are no exception.”

SyncMaster 931C: Experience color innovation at its best
See the world as nature intended it to be seen with the new Samsung SyncMaster 931C monitor. The 19-inch SyncMaster 931C delivers 18% improved color quality making it an ideal choice for digital camera enthusiasts. It uses technology that reveals colors never before seen on an LCD monitor this size, allowing users to experience the rich colors of life’s limitless palette. The realization of CCFL (Cold Cathode Fluorescent Lamp) 97% – the world first in a monitor – moves this model beyond the limitations of what was previously possible and delivers a groundbreaking color gamut of 97% – a 18% improvement on the previous best color reproduction.

This visionary new monitor also has a 2000:1 dynamic contrast ratio meaning that every detail and outline of every image stands out, no matter how dark the scene is; furthermore, ghosting and blurring when watching movies or playing games are greatly reduced by the SyncMaster 931C’s fast response time of 2ms (GTG).

User-friendly features are also one of the major characteristic of this model. It has MagicBright™ for seven preset viewing environments, MagicTune™ to enable all the image adjustments to be controlled by the simple click of a mouse and Wall & Arm mounting for convenient and versatile set up.

In keeping with Samsung’s commitment to producing innovative products with ergonomic design, the SyncMaster 931C’s glossy surface, translucent blue LED power button, organic edges and softer contours ensure eye comfort, aesthetic satisfaction and a new fashion trend for LCD monitors.

SyncMaster 971P: A monitor that moves with flow of your life
The SyncMaster 971P can be curved, flexed and positioned to any height or angle imaginable, giving stunning displays every time. This monitor has a 178˚ viewing angle, both vertical and horizontal, providing wide unrestricted viewing whether the viewer is sitting, standing or walking through the room. The freedom of movement is enhanced further by Magic technology. MagicStand™ allows the monitor to be raised, lowered, folded and tilted for optimum viewing angles while MagicRotation™ operates automatically when the monitor is pivoted, providing maximum comfort and visibility.

Beautifully and efficiently designed, the SyncMaster 971P is worth watching even when the monitor is switched off. The streamlined acrylic bezel, sleek flowing base and cool blue LED light are features of the ‘soft minimalism’ that characterizes the design style of this product series. Its three-jointed design serves not only to increase flexibility but also to decrease bulkiness. Moreover, the sophisticated look of the monitor is not tarnished by a nest of tangled cords because it has USB and power cord ports neatly tucked away into the base.

This model also comes with MagicBright and MagicTune, and has a 1500:1 contrast ratio and 6ms response time (GTG).

SyncMaster 215TW and 225BW: Maximum width, maximum thrill

Similarly, the 225BW features a 700:1 contrast ratio, 1680 x 1050 resolution, and a 5ms response time

With S-PVA panel, SyncMaster 215TW provides 178° ultra wide view angle display which has all the connections needed for the ultimate home entertainment experience. DVD, audio, camcorders, headphones and other AV devices can be easily hooked up while built-in speakers deliver direct sound.
