Pretty Good Monitor
This is a nice monitor and is made sweeter by the rebate deals that may be available to you.

If I were to caution on one point, it would be that you not get too mesmerized by the 12ms published response rate statistic when comparing this monitor with others.Yes, response rate is a hugely important statistic to check out when buying for use with games or video playback, but when shopping around, I found games were equally playable on some monitors where the published response rate was 16ms and in some cases even higher.At the same time, I found that the contrast on this monitor sometimes suffered when compared to playing video on the same other monitors.

I nice monitor for the price point, just don't buy it over another one simply for the "12ms" quoted.Look at the whole picture.I like this one though. ... Read more

Tinny sound, sub-average picture
Since I am the chief cook in the family, I use this TV in the kitchen. It is better than not being able to watch Iron Chef at all while I am chained to the stove, but not by much. I guess you get (at best) what you pay for. The first problem was the mounting template. It was inaccurate and didn't match the screw holes in the TV. To add insult to injury, the mounting screws are VERY fine thread; hard to start unless perfectly aligned, and easy to cross-thread. Once I finally got it mounted, the disappointment continued. It is impossible to set the brightness and contrast and forget it. If you set it so a given channel and program is watchable, odds are it will be washed out or too dark on the next channel, or even the next program on the same channel. By default, the TV comes on in the wide (16:9 aspect ratio) mode. Since 90% of programming is still in the 4:3 mode, you have to change it almost every time you turn it on. The remote requires that you press the "OK" button after entering the channnel number if it less than 100 - the TV is not smart enought to figure out that 027 means channel 27. The remote also uses an expensive and short-lived "button" battery, similar to a watch battery. Sound quality is on a par with a $9.95 portable radio, which pretty much makes the built-in AM/FM radio useless for listening to music. Bottom line: a big disappointment, even at a low price.

Had to send it back
First off the AM/FM tuner is awful. I get better reception on a transistor radio. The speaker system was very tinny also. I could have lived with that since the LCD seemed to work very well at first. After one day, the TV would shut down after a few minutes of playing. It would require unplugging to get the system to start working again. Again after a few minutes it would shut down.
I traded it in for the SONY.

Great for my laundry room!
For the price this little t.v. does exactly what I need. Radio or t.v. while folding laundry.The picture is fine.The other thing that is great about this version of the under the cabinets is the depth.Most of the other versions are to deep and stick out past the upper cabinet. I just got it...I will redo my review if it doesn't hold up. ... Read more

Amazon.com Product Description

With crisp 1,280 x 1,024 resolution and an ultra-thin profile, the Samsung LTP1745 17-inch LCD monitor broadcasts strikingly clear images while taking up a minimum of space in your living room, bedroom, or kitchen. The monitor's wide 170-degree viewing angle makes sure that no seat is a bad seat, especially when the unit is mounted on a wall. In addition, the monitor connects to a personal computer through its RGB input, letting users surf the web, check e-mail, or play QuickTime movies on the screen. The built-in NTSC stereo tuner receives the standard 181-channel fare, while the digital comb filter separates the color signals to minimize dot crawl and blurred edges, giving users sharp, focused images that look great regardless of the source.

As with many high-quality TVs, the LTP1745 makes flexibility a top priority, which is why users can easily alter the video settings to enjoy a custom picture that meets their needs. Variable picture settings include custom, standard, movie, and dynamic. The TV also provides color temperature adjustment for warm, cool, or neutral tones, along with a trilingual onscreen menu. Additional user features include a sleep timer, V-chip parental control, closed captioning, and an auto volume leveler.

The flexibility extends to the audio options, as users can choose one of several preset sound modes (standard, music, movie, speech, and custom) for broadcast through the built-in 5-watt speaker system (2.5 watts x 2). The monitor's MTS multichannel decoding separates audio signals for stereo reception, and also broadcasts a second audio program (SAP) when available. To connect the monitor to devices such as DVD players, game consoles, and camcorders, use the component video, S-video, RF, and composite inputs. PCs connect to the monitor through the DVI and RGB inputs.

Extremely Disapointed!
While I have used LCD monitors for computers, this is the first LCD TV I have ever bought.

I have to say, I am extremely displeased with it. I may return it.

First, regardless of the connection type, or when viewing a DVD or cable signal, there is an EXTREME amout of digital noise in the darker areas of the picture. Also, when any object moves, whether it be a person, text, etc, there is a halo around everything. Closeups of people are practically unviewable; they all look like they have been painted. Text is VERY soft, almost "bulged" looking.

Also, no matter how hard I try, the contrast is simply incorrect. It is either too soft, or way too harsh. Although the setting is completely variable, there is no noticable difference between any of the middle settings. In fact, in order for the noise to go away in the black areas, the contrast must be set all the way to max. Unfortunately, this makes skin tones unwatchable.

If you are viewing from 15 or more feet away, the picture looks crisp. Anything closer than that is completely unacceptable.

Furthermore, the holes to mount the Sanus wall mount are too small by only a tiny fraction of an inch. The base of the TV is supposed to be VESA compliant, and the Sanus Mount should fit, but the screws simply won't go in the holes. I looked in the Samsung manual, and they want you to buy a special mount from some obscure company. This unit is advertised as VESA compliant, and therefore should fit any 75/100 VESA mount.

I don't know if this one is defective or what. Either way, if it is returned, I certainly won't be buying another LCD TV anytime soon.

I am a very technically savy person. I have never run into problems such as these with any purchase I have ever made.

Perfect for student room, maybe a little expensive..
I was hoping to buy a new PC for college, and since monitors are optional, there is a wide variety of available models. But specifically I wanted something with TV-tuner so I can use same screen for both PC and TV, saving a considerable amount of space Since I also own a laptop (and all I have is a 4 to 2 ft workspace) this fit perfect. I used CRT moniters till I bought this, and after using 192MP for 5 months, the old 17" CRT back home disturbed me a lot. Also has speakers, but I also plug iPod in when I'm playing CS or some other game. I also use PiP (Picture in Picture) a lot, and that was also satisfactory. Even though you can only have two sizes (box and wide) and place it to 4 specific locations around the corners, you get used to it. Expecting more would be too optimistic..

One thing is price. It's probably 200 dollars more than its nearest competitor without a TV-Tuner, and I bet you can buy 4-5 TV's to that price. Also I paid more since I bought it a long time ago. But I can say that if you can afford it, then this product will worth every penny.

Great, very flexible monitor
This is a single device that allows selection of composite, component (progressive DVD and HD sources), PC monitor and broadcast (cable TV) video at a push of a remote control button.Basically it was necessary only to plug in the sources and up they came.

It offers a number of color adjustment and other setup options but in a month or so of usage in all modes I have felt little need to diverge much from the default settings.

Its slim size and weight are a great relief from the bulk of CRT monitors.

Looks Great
This monitor looks great. Easy to set up. At first I had it hooked up to my VGA video card and it looked good. Then I bought a DVI video card, hooked that up and it looks even better! The only drawback is it only looks this good at it's native 1280x1024 resolution, which makes pictures on web pages look small as compared to the 800x600 I was used too. If you plan on hooking up S-Video there is only one port for that on the side which will look tacky. If you need a space saving monitor and TV, this is the deal for you.

An Excellent Monitor
I just purchased a Samsung SyncMaster 192MP as an upgrade for my current computer, a Dell circa 2001.I was upgrading forma ViewSonic 17" CRT, circa 1996.I love it.I should add that I have only owned it a few days and have no current plans to use it as a TV or with its built-in sound, so I cannot attest to reliability, usefulness as a TV, or the sound quality.My current video adapter has only the standard VGA 15-pin analog "D" output, so I have not had a chance to see what things look like with DVI.I run at the native resolution of 1280x1024 at 72 Hz.

The verdict (so far):The monitor is very bright.The colors are clean.The image is sharp.I have noticed no dead pixels.I do not play really fast video games, but I have noticed no issues with latency or ghosting in normal use.It is true that any LCD would be better than my old CRT, but I have had both a Dell 19" LCD (don't remember the model) and an HP L1925 LCD at work.Both of these are also nice.I have not done a side-by-side comparison, but the picture from the Samsung 192MP is at least as good as the L1925 and probably a bit better than the Dell.

The 192MP worked correctly right out of the box, although I was careful to make sure I had set my display adapter to run in a compatible mode ahead of time.The only bad thing I have to say about this monitor is that after trying the auto-adjust feature some of the text became fuzzy.However, when I went back to the default "custom" settings, everything was perfect.

I did a fair bit of research on 19" displays before I bought this one.I also considered the Samsung SyncMaster 910Tvery seriously.I did not get a chance to see a 910T live, but on paper it is a slightly better monitor, although it lacks the TV tuner and speakers.The 910T is significantly cheaper, however.If you just want a monitor, the 910T is probably a better choice.For me, the ability to hook it up directly to a DVD player was worth the extra money, since I pan to upgrade my computer in about two years, and I will likely want a better monitor to go with it at some point.

***** Update *****

I have now owned this monitor a couple of months and am still very happy with it.I use it to watch DVD's (normal movies played using my computer's DVD drive.)I have not noticed any ghosting in normal viewing, although I did not specifically look for it.

Great Picture
This is a great tv. It has great picture and all the features you would want. It's wall mountable, which is just awesome. And best thing of all is I didn't have to pay a dime for it! (...) I did it, and I sure am glad I did! ... Read more

forteManager software has issues
On the one hand-the monitor looks great, and 12ms is fast. And sure enough, the monitor autopivots. The forteManager color calibration software is easy to use to get the color and contrast right...BUT this software is apparently incompatible with the windows xp screen saver, pc dpms (power management) and NVidia desktop manager software. If u try to come back from your screen saver, you get the dreaded "Out of range error". So I called LG. They said that 1st of all LCDs dont need screen savers, cause they dont burn in and 2nd the monitor has its own power manager. So they said that i could turn off my screen saver and the pc power mgmt that turned off the monitor after 20 minutes. Sure enough they were right, by disabling all this, the monitor stopped hanging, and it powered down all on its own. The problem with that is that I liked my screen saver, screen savers have become more than preventing burn in, you put them up for example to cause a password screen to come up on re-entry. Also, I tried upgrading to forteManager 2.0 (1.01 came with the monitor) and when installed-it blasted all my sound card drivers, thankfully I had windows restore on. So I got the Samsung 711t (also from amazon) instead, and ill be writing a 4-star review on it. ... Read more

Two brand new monitors both with dead pixels
I just bought my first LCD from Amazon. I got it and surprise: the monitor has a dead pixel right out of the box. I asked for a replacement, got it 2 days later and the same thing happened: another dead pixel right out of the box. I don't know who does the quality check these days but these are serious issues. It is unacceptable that a $600 has dead pixels when it exits the assembly line.
I've heard good things about Planar but this is no coincidence. I'll be returning both...

Amazing Monitor, Too Bad not fast enough for FPS Games
This is a GREAT monitor. Colors are unreal on this display. Very true blacks, definitely lived up to its reputation. Unfortunately, it ghosts pretty bad in fast action games, specially FPS which is a big shame. I have a high end video card and use the digital connection on it as well. Always using the native resolution of course. I had a 17" dell LCD with a 25ms response time and was able to deal with its slight ghosting. I felt since this one had the same response time, it would have the same performance. Also reading other reviews about people saying it was good for gaming, i felt why not give it a shot. I tried it on Doom 3 and Far Cry and it ghosts horribly. So if your an avid gamer,specially with FPS games, don't buy this monitor. If games don't matter, this is one of the best, if not thy best LCD monitor out.

Simply a great monitor, with great service
I have three of these monitors in a multi-monitor setup, and they all work very well.While admittedly I am using them in a business setup that is not pushing the graphics capability of the monitors the way that some games do, I can say that they have been completely dependable, with no problems of any sort, and very good image quality (in both landscape and portrait mode).The pivot feature works quite well, and is a real plus.

I had a problem with the second monitor I purchased (the DVI connection wasn't working) and Planar sent out a new monitor to me immediately.I have been running these three monitors for about a year now and am very, very pleased.I will likley be buying two more for use at home.

Excellent - BUT you better have a good graphics card.
Just bought this monitor and played "Matrix: Reloaded". The picture quality is quite amazing. I also test drove Warcraft III and Quake 3 and the graphics look great with no apparent "ghosting".
I also see no pixel fusion for this monitor. Since i am an avid gamer, this monitor gets my "2 Thumbs Up". However, i use an ATI Radeon 9600 Pro w/ 256 MB DDR (using the DVI adapter). Not sure how this monitor would perform with a lower end graphics card. ... Read more

Very Pleased!
I am not a techie - just an avid internet nut, so I'm not going to have much to say from a technical standpoint. Anyway, my monitor at work started getting dimmer and dimmer causing my eyes to become very tired very quickly.I rushed to get a new monitor and found this great value at Amazon. Within three hours of purchasing this item, Amazon emailed me my tracking number!Now three days later I am enjoying this new (bright!) monitor.It was very easy to set up and adjust. On top of the great price, the free shipping was a nice plus! Thanks Amazon, for another great and value-filled shopping experience!

Great monitor, great price!!!!
My Gateway monitor finally took a dive, I needed a quick replacement and found this monitor, It is truly a great deal, great picture, and it arrived on my doorstep within 48 hours of placing the order, I chose the Super Saver Shipping option.
I highly recommend this monitor.

Great Monitor!
I have been scouring the Internet for the past few days looking for an inexpensive monitor to replace my old 15-inch Trinitron monitor from Gateway until I came across this little gem.

I am very impressed with the picture and quality of this monitor.It is just big enough to use with a screen resolution of 1280x1024 and works fine with both Windows and Linux.This monitor has plenty of geometry and color controls and delivers fantastic contrast for a CRT monitor.I was a bit hesitant to purchase a flat-screen monitor for this price; in some of my shopping I found flat-screen monitors advertised for the same price when they were just a convex (curved) screen behind flat glass casing.

For the price, you cannot get a better deal.I used the Super-Saver Shipping option and it was at my doorstep in less than 24 hours from when I placed the order.The KDS XtremeFlat XF-7i 17" CRT Monitor is truly flat and makes any viewing angle comfortable; it is very easy on both the eyes and the wallet.

A Solid Choice
I bought this monitor to use with a second computer in my home.So far, this monitor has exceeded my expectations.The view has been more than adequate for surfing the internet and using general office applications.I wanted to see just how good the picture quality can be.So, I installed a Sony DVD player on the computer so that I can test how the monitor will look playing a movie.I watched The Return of the King on this system and was impressed by the picture quality.Take the fact that the graphics card on this system is geared towards the business user and you will even be more impressed with the monitor.

My primary computer system has a 19-inch Trinitron monitor.And honestly, if I am just surfing the internet and sending e-mail, this 17-inch KDS is just as nice to look at.The Trinitron monitor does show more saturated colors when watching DVDs and such, but that could be due to that system's superior graphics card.

I can find no fault or shortcomings in this 17-inch KDS monitor.I can recommend this unit, with no reservations, to anyone looking for a 17-inch flat screen CRT.

Great Deal!

Not working upon install
Just installed this on Windows XP today. It seemed to install & run, but when it finished going through its rather lengthy procedure (colors changing on monitor white/black/R,G,B) I received a runtime error with report to send to Microsoft. Tried restarting/ unplugging/ etc. but still doesn't work. Their web site had no real useful info on debugging or common error info. It also states they're closed until the first of the year, so we'll have to wait a week+ to see if it really works; I'll pass on giving my final rating for now.

Amazing Deal!
I am an amatuer photographer, and painter.And I have always had trouble producing consistent colors and contrast with images.I adjusted my monitor all the time, but the images would look different on other monitors.I really wanted to get the Pantone Sypder, but couldn't afford it.When I saw ColorPlus and the price I got it right away.Let me just say that after installing the software (which was easy) and hooking up the hardware (easy too) and then going through the on screen guide (which took maybe 10 minutes), I noticed a HUGE difference in my pictures.At first I really didn't notice anything, until I opened some pictures of people.You can see excellent flesh tones.Before it was like looking through a blurry glass, now pictures of people are sharp and clear.Plus my video games are much clearer as well.

Bottom line: If you do lots of graphics work and are on a budget this is a must have. ... Read more
