Specifications
The monitor uses what Samsung call a WVA (Wide Viewing Angle) panel, which is a very unspecific term they use to describe any VA or PLS panel they may be using. From the specifications and our testing this panel is characteristic of an AMVA panel with true 8-bit colour reproduction. The monitor includes grey to grey acceleration with Samsung stating 5ms here (as always, take with salt). With an asking price of £300 ($380) it isnt the cheapest option out there but that isnt unusual for Samsung.

Features and aesthetics
The front of the monitor reveals a glossy black plastic bezel with gently rounded corners and a rectangular stand base with a matte silver metallic look (its actually plastic as well). It has quite an angular look overall and has very thin side bezels of just 10mm. The top bezel is just a fraction thicker at 11mm whilst the bottom bezel is around 18mm thick. You may also notice from the reflected outlines on the screen that it is so-called semi-glossy, similar to many of Samsungs PLS (Plane to Line Switching) offerings.
Thin bezels, very light matte screen
You may also notice that the screen is quite high up 6 inches (~150mm) clear of the desk surface. This is a sort of compromise to allow the screen to pivot into portrait despite the stand lacking height adjustment (it can only be tilted and pivoted).What's in the box
