Have you looked at the 223bw? that is a guaranteed S panel.

Just out of interest, what is the difference between the 'SM-2232BW Pebble' and the 'SM-226CW' ?
They appear to be similar, only approx £45 different. Yet one is a guaranteed Samsung panel, the other subject to the 'panel lottery' ?

Will all these screens be the TN type ?

Erm, and neither did i :confused:

tbh i find it hard to believe that the high street would beat places like OcUk to stock of a new model.

fair do's if you found it - i tried the usual places at the time, and it didnt find anything on their webpages

I thought the CW was supposed to be a guaranteed Samsung panel with an improved gamut? Is it just getting to stage now where Samsung panels have lost all credibility??

Has anyone received a panel who can comment on it's performance? Dell is looking mighty attractive now...!

what is the 223BW? is it an older model?
why is it 21.6" as opposed to 22"?

Oh Ed not again. · 4 Sep 2007 at 14:50

The BW is the older panel which caused all the A/C/S panel fraccas.

I love the way companies decimal-ise imperial measurements.

For the sake of .4 of an inch in light of getting a better quality panel - I'd settle for that...
