Comments on Samsung SyncMaster 172v

Overall, the 172v is a clean, sleek and compact 17in LCD that is priced just below the £300 mark at the time of writing. However, it offers no DVI port and although it could render colours scales with refinement, a loose grip on the analogue signal and a very narrow vertical viewing angle hold it back from winning any awards.
