The 245T monitor has a 24-inch, 16:10 wide-screen format, with a 178/178-degree viewing angle. The viewing angle is achieved via Samsung's proprietary Super Patterned Vertical Alignment (S-PVA), the latest technology advancement in liquid crystal cell structure, for an improved user viewing experience. The 245T monitor's ultra-wide viewing area can support a range of multi-window applications, thereby helping to improve work efficiency and reducing the need for two monitors. Furthermore, the 245T model features a high 1920 x 1200 resolution, allowing the monitor to deliver clearer and more precise images. The 245T monitor's image quality is also enhanced by Samsung's MagicContrast which offers a super high contrast ratio and an extra-wide viewing angle that's ideal for providing detailed onscreen images. With the 3000:1 super-high dynamic contrast ratio, it's easy to read or view content on the monitor's screen. The 245T model also comes equipped with MagicSpeed, which gives users an ultra-fast 6ms response time (gray to gray), making the monitor ideal for computer gaming and multimedia-driven applications such as motion or streaming video. A faster response time provides better performance of motion video, and produces smoother edges, clearer images and a more natural image response. These features make the 245T monitor an ideal choice for a range of high-end commercial applications that require clear and precise images, such as CAD/CAM fine-detailed drawings, web and graphic design and desktop publishing.

First class monitor

"I love this monitor. I mainly use this for Photoshop, Photoshop Lightroom and Quark. The colors are rich and sharp and the on-screen menu is easy to use. The additional inputs, HDMI, Component, etc. are very handy with the PIP so I can watch a little TV while I work. B&H knows how to package things. This was inside another carton with additional padding. So much better then some vendors who just slap a label on ..." Read Full Review »

Defective out of the box

"The 245T I received had a problem with the brightness level decreasing from left to right (especially in the left quarter of the screen) with a lot of backlight leakage around those edges. It was impossible to adjust the brightness/contrast to give an overall satisfactory image. Not counting the brightness problem, the monitor had an excellent sharp image and decent colors with wide viewing angles.The 245T comes..." Read Full Review »

"I use this for photos, video and everyday business uses. The clarity is better than a Mac monitor and its equivalent to the Dell monitor. I had both side by side before I chose this one.

"Pros

Excellent color, text looks clear and easy to read. Minimal ghosting unlike the 2407WFP-HC which I compared side-by-side. HD looks amazing over HDMI! Having so many ports available is very nice to have (HDMI, DVI, VGA, Component, Composite Video & S-Video) and none seem to have the restriction …" Read Full Review »

"I wanted a good monitor for photo editing beyond the below average 19" LCD monitor I got bundled with my computer, and based on the reviews, this appeared to be a good tradeoff between price and quality (the other candidate was Dell monitor).
