Samsung SyncMaster S27A850D review: Samsung SyncMaster S27A850D
The Samsung SyncMaster S27A850D is a well-designed, stylish, professional monitor with great options and performance.

Pros:
- The Samsung SyncMaster S27A850D delivers great overall performance, and has a useful assortment of connections, including three USB 3.0 ports
- The monitor's stylish but practical design provides many ergonomic options.
Cons:
- Compared with other professional monitors, the S27A850D lacks a few OSD configuration details
- Also, HDMI would have been useful.

I own two of these monitors. I just recently bought a second
Using two of these monitors in a dual setup. These PLS screens have excellent quality. They have almost every feature desired in a high end monitor of the IPS/PLS class. The only thing lacking is 10 bit color.

Samsung S27A850D
IPS (In-Plane Switching) technology has remained relatively unchallenged at the ‘high end' of the monitor market and has also penetrated into slightly lower-end consumer models in the form of ‘E-IPS'.
Pros:
- Colours are rich
- deep and varied with good consistency
- Excellent high-end brightness
- good luminance range and quite pleasing white purity
- Low haze screen surface handles glare well without profoundly upsetting colour vibrancy or image clarity and is probably the best ‘compromise' we've seen...
Cons:
- Some colours appear too deep and oversaturated
- No hardware-based support for 2.2 gamma standard and a high luminance required to prevent many colours becoming ‘lifeless
- A light haze and mild diffusion leads to slightly inferior clarity and vibrancy compared to a glossy screen surface – you can't...

Simply amazing....
I bought this monitor to replace a Dell U2711 which I had to return due to its horrible horrible anti glare coating. this monitor is amazing, its super clear and there is no problem with the anti glare. It gives a high resolution performance is brilliant. If you are thinking about buying it, do it!

Favorite Monitor
This is by far the best monitor I've ever seen. Great resolution, great vibrant colors, awesome brightness, thin, light weight, wall mountable. I absolutely love this monitor! Samsung is the absolute best display manufacturer by far.

not suitable for graphics work
I really want to love this monitor. I do a lot of graphic design work and I've used at least half a dozen different lcd screens in the past 10 years personally and professionally, with most being of much cheaper cost and brand, but out of them all, I have to say that the lighting on this screen is...
Pros:
- While I was assembling the monitor, I was very impressed by the design, weight and feel of the unit
- It also has a desirable subtle anti-glare coating that is very smooth and nice
Cons:
- Intense back light bleeding in the bottom right corner that takes up 1/6 of the screen and distorts the dark range to a brown or bluish tint depending on your viewing angle
- More back light bleeding on the bottom center and top right corner that is half intense, but just seems to double annoying...
