Samsung SyncMaster 192T Review

By Ian Bell March 21, 2004

Quote from the review at ipKonfig:

“The SyncMaster 192T supports both Analog and Digital connectors, provided your video card supports digital–which most do. Digital is beneficial to graphics artists who require a more accurate calibration of color. This also works well in conjunction with the 750:1 contrast ratio, which gives a higher range of purest of white, and darkest of black. However, LCDs operate best with the default setups when operating in native resolution. Using the digital connection feature reduces the adjustments allowed.”

Samsung Galaxy Book 2 Pro 360 hands-on review: A sturdy sequel

Samsung Galaxy Book 2 Pro on a desk with its desktop displayed.

Samsung is best known for phones and televisions, yet on the computing side, it often takes some of the lessons learned from those products to create amazing laptops. We already liked the original Galaxy Book Pro 360 for some of those reasons, and now the new Galaxy Book 2 Pro 360 is arriving as a follow-up.

I got to try one out ahead of Mobile World Congress, and the question was whether Samsung could take its beautiful OLED displays, as well as some synergies from the Galaxy phone and tablet lineups, and combine it into what could be another winning laptop for multimedia consumption. Let's find out the answer.

Samsung T5 vs. Samsung T7: Which portable SSD should you buy?

Solid-state drives (SSDs) are increasingly common in portable storage, as they can be up to 10 times faster than traditional hard drives, thereby reducing boot times and offering faster data transfer rates. With no moving parts, they're also more durable against knocks and drops. There are a number of portable SSD manufacturers, but Samsung is one of the best, and two of its best portable SSDs are the iconic Samsung T5 and the newer T7.

Both drives are very similar-looking, pocket-sized external SSDs meant for professional and casual users. While the T5 was launched in 2017, the T7 made its debut in 2020 with two variants -- a standard version and a "Touch" version featuring a fingerprint reader for added security. The T7 also builds upon its predecessor by offering double the transfer speeds.

This (early) Prime Day deal saves you $60 on the Samsung T7 Touch Portable SSD

As Prime Day approaches, we’re seeing some amazing early Prime Day deals on all sorts of fantastic tech, including external hard drive deals. As we work more from home, backing up our files has never been more important, so having the right storage drive is key. Right now, you can save $60
on one of the best, the Samsung T7 Touch SSD. It’s only $170 at Amazon, down from its regular price of $230. That’s 1TB of space, and a whole lot of peace of mind, at a discount!

A very quick lesson on SSD and why it’s important. SSD stands for Solid State Drive. In older hard disk drives, or HHDs, the information was stored on different mechanical parts that moved together like gears (they were spinning disks). As its name suggests Solid State Drives have no moving parts and use a simpler, more accessible memory chip (NAND flash memory) which is at once way more reliable, less susceptible to damage, and way, way faster.
