WITH MOST COMPUTER displays these days using 16:9 panels it's refreshing to see that Samsung has decided to launch a pair of good old fashioned 16:10 displays, both sporting DisplayPort interfaces to boot. They might be intended for business use, but we can see a fair few consumers being interested in these new models as well.

The two models are the 22-inch SyncMaster 2243DW and the 24-inch 2443DW, the first has 1680x1050 resolution with the latter upping that to 1920x1200. Both models offer D-sub, DVI and DisplayPort connectivity and they're of course HDCP compliant. The 2243DW features a brightness of 300 cd/ m², a 50,000:1 dynamic contrast ratio and a 5ms response time. The 2443DW has an even higher dynamic contrast ratio at 70,000:1, although for whatever reason Samsung seems to have omitted to mention the actual contrast ratio. Sadly both models use TN displays.
