223bw-2232bw differences?

WILD9 · 20 Sep 2007 at 21:52

Are there any appreciable differences between these 2 monitors other than the case and overdrive? I havn't seen much talk about the 223bw other than Gibbo saying they are just as good as the 226bw.

Hi there

My testing involved web stuff and photos, for this the 223BW and 226BW both looked just as good, in fact the image quality was superb.

In games I cannot comment as to whether the quicker 2ms reponse time of the 226BW is noticable.

Well I dont notice any real lag on my current 8ms samsung 913n so i doubt id notice any more at 3ms faster so its looking pretty good so far

Hi there

Nope its identical in size to the 226BW and any other 22" monitor as I double checked.

223bw

Hi. I've been looking into buying one of these monitors and according to the samsung UK website, the 223bw is actually smaller than the 2232bw or 226bw. They have the specs as 21.6 inches for the 223bw rather than 22 inches for the other two. doesnt seem like much but the specs also show a different pixel pitch; .276 for the 223bw rather than .282 for the others.
