Text is crisply legible and colors are sharp, thanks to a combination of 1,280 x 1,024 native resolution, 0.264 mm dot pitch, and a contrast ratio of 450:1. The 17-inch screen is easily viewable by multiple simultaneous users thanks to a 150-degree horizontal viewing angle (120 degrees vertical).
The base detaches if you'd prefer to attach the monitor to the wall with an optional 100 mm VESA mount, but in all locations you'll find that the simple attractive black frame fits unobtrusively in any decor. Samsung provides a three-year warranty covering parts and service.
