Summary: Monitor, per se, very good
Comment: The monitor itself is fine; I would buy one again. Two small concerns, though.
1. The outer box (Amazon's) arrived in bad condition; tape coming off, box partially open. I took photos, expecting to find nothing workable inside. However,the inner box (Samsung's) saved the day, with no damage whatsoever to the monitor.
2. The monitor's stand doesn't tilt. This was something of a disappointment. We were able to put the monitor and stand on something that raises it about 4 inches, so everything's all right. But it's too bad Samsung didn't spend a few cents more on the plastic stand to make it tilt.

Summary: Stops working
Comment: I've used the 710N model for 2 years now. This monitor recently stopped working. My computer would be on and then the monitor would go black, the monitor would still be on but nothing shows up on the screen.
I did a search on Google and found that this is a common problem across MANY of the Samsung LCD lines. The solution is to unplug the monitor for 5 minutes and plug it back in. This works, but now the monitor is doing this much more frequently.
It's something with the circuitry. I suppose it was good for 2 years but now I have to buy a new monitor because I can't find the warranty papers.
Buyer beware.

Summary: My whole office uses these and they're great!
Comment: My entire office of 300+ people uses these monitors and no one has ever had one break and no one complains about them. They're light, bright, sturdy, and perfect for looking at 40 hours per week.

Summary: Great!
Comment: Fantastic monitor. We were looking for a Samsung because their quality is awesome... get a knock-off and you'll end up buying again in about 2 years... which is what I did. My husband has had a Samsung and loves it, The quality, picture, color, etc. are great.
Super easy to install and amazon had it to me the next day! Can't beat it!

Summary: I was disappointed
Comment: I have been using a 15" dell flat screen monitor at my home. I needed a new monitor for my office, and decided to upgrade my home monitor with this 17" Samsung, and take the Dell to work.
The resolution on the Samsung was disappointing. Simple type was slightly muddy. I played with the various controls, finally came to the conclusion that the product is inferior to the inexpensive Dell monitor I already had. When I unplugged the Samsung, and replaced it with the Dell, I was relieved! Much easier on the eyes.
I took the Samsung to my office, and placed it at a workstation that doesn't get much use :-(
Next time I purchase a monitor, I'm going to go to an actual store (!) (something I don't do much anymore) and look at the screen before I make my purchase.
My advise is the same to you. Make sure that you are happy with what you see. You're probably going to spend a lot of hours staring at this thing.
