A look at the interesting arrival of PLS panel technology to the market in this 27" screen from Samsung. How does the screen perform and what is PLS technology like? How does it compare with IPS?
Pros:

- comparable to e-IPS in many regards
- Smoother
- non-grainy AG coating
- Very good pixel responsiveness
Cons:
- Some backlight bleed issues (may vary
- Poor default setup
- needs calibration ideally
- Some adjustments from the stand are very stiff

The Samsung SA850 monitor is in a class that is slightly above what the day to day computer user will need but will integrate nicely into a home environment if the advanced features are needed.

Samsung S27A850 LED Ultra HD Monitor
Samsung is no stranger to the LCD market. They make LCD panels that set the bar for others to follow and in fact are the ones making the displays for Apple's new iPad. They know how to cram a bunch of pixels onto a panel and the screen we are looking at today has quite a few.
Pros:
- High resolution - 2560x1440
- 3x USB 3.0 Ports
- Lots of height adjustment
- Display can rotate
- Multiple inputs
- Good color quality
Cons:
- Pros
- Construction feels a little cheap
- No Display Port Cable
- Premium price for the extra resolution

Samsung SyncMaster S27A850D 27" 850 Series LED Super PLS Business Monitor Review
By: Michael Phrakaysone Enter any specialized business facility focused on graphical or video content and you will realize that their displays are not ones consumers would typically use at home. They are not ones you would find at your local Wal-Mart because monitors vary for specific purpose.

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...

Not Mac compatible
I used this product just long enough to discover that it was not compatible with Mac computers. It was purchased due to its supposedly better resolution than the ViewSonic monitor I use alongside an iMac.
Pros:
- Easy To Set Up
Cons:
- Not Compatible With Mac

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!
