Tags: Samsung, Samsung SyncMaster T240HD, HDMI, left side, setup
We like:
High number of connection options; accurate flesh tones and sharp clarity in DVDs; ATSC/QAM tuner; sharp fonts
We don't like:
Drab colours in games; low brightness; bad OSD button placement
CNET UK judgement:
With tonnes of connection options, including two HDMI ports and an ATSC/QAM tuner, great performance and useful features, the Samsung SyncMaster T240HD display is an excellent bargain. We do have a few gripes with brightness and colour, but the sharp text makes up for it. All in all, it's a steal for what you get, at just £320

And it comes with a remote control, all for around £320. Continue Reading...
