Samsung 22" Differences?

JayCee · 28 Oct 2007 at 20:42

Hi,

Does anyone know what the major difference is between the Samsung SM-226BW and the Samsung SM-2232BW Pebble other than the obviously chunky bezel on the Pebble?

I'm not keen on the Pebble's aesthetics but will consider it if the panel it is better than the SM-226BW. I unfortunately can't seem to find what the major differences are.

Thanks.

no differences other than design. Samsung aim to have all SM2232BW's with Samsung panels as well

Although they've said all SM226BW should be Samsung made panels now too.

I had a 226bw with a cmo panel (arguably the worst apparently?) but it was fantastic and very responsive, good colours once i'd adjusted them. Don't read into the hype and definitely don't trust samsung's claim they'll "all be s-panels soon!". It shouldn't matter much anyway but obviously everyone would prefer an S panel but with some playing about they're all good and more importantly, all responsive.

If overclockers held a poll as to the most helpful forum member i reckon baddass would win

Thanks for the replies guys. So its still a bit hit and miss which panel you get?

hard to know now that Samsung have hidden the reference to panel in the OSD. They CLAIM that all stock supplied should now be S panels though. Don't let it put you off too much though
