I've just bought myself a Samsung LCD monitor 2253LW. It's a 21.6" monitor. My old CRT monitor Samsung 765MB have served me well for 6 years and now kabut, that's why I got a new monitor. Comparing the 2253LW and my old 765MB, I must say that 765MB is better in terms of colour reproduction, sharpness, and most of all, the viewing angle. However, I find that 2253LW cause less strain to the eye. Can anyone explain this?

I like 2253LW a lot, and being a new owner of LCD monitor, I have nothing much to complain about. The desktop space is increase thanks to the higher resolution, another thing that I like is the power consumption, it's greatly reduce (45W) as compared to my previous 765MB (83W).

I didn't do any sort of calibration yet, as I wasn't too sure how to do it. However will try out some of the link given here. The 2253LW does have slight backlight leak at top and bottom of the screen when the light was off.

So far, am still satisfied with the new 2253LW.
