The Pros:Larger and higher resolution than the T220HD for only $30 more. Has a plethora of advanced input and outputs. Full 1080p.
The Cons:Still only a TN matrix (has its setbacks). Panel is not as nice as the samller T220HD. Cheap plastic stand - poor ergonomics (tilt only), wobbly.

#samsung_t240 Seeing as it is a brand-new monitor, still hot off the factory conveyor belt, I have noticed some improvements over their older monitors. Having HDMI, optical digital audio, a .25" headphone jack, DVI and VGA (switchable between HDMI, DVI, and VGA). The gaming performance is on-par if not better than their previous models, and with the gorgeous black cabinet with dark rose red on the bottom, it looks classy yet modern.
Performance, aesthetics, features, and quality all combine to make this great monitor at a great price. Appealing to gamers (like myself), movie-lovers, and console gamers.
