Samsung Launches Premium LED Monitor, Combining Sleek Design and Energy Efficiency
Samsung Electronics America Inc., a subsidiary of Samsung Electronics Corporation, the number one worldwide brand of LCD display products, today announced the launch of its latest premium LED monitor, the 23 inch Samsung Syncmaster PX2370. The PX2370 will be available in April from Samsung resellers at a price of $369, giving customers outstanding performance combined with sleek, attractive design and energy-efficient technology.
"With its slim 18mm depth and eco-sensitive design, the PX2370 leads the way with the smallest footprint possible, both on the desktop and the environment," said Young Bae, director Display Marketing, Samsung Information Technology Division. "Consumers no longer have to choose between a high-performance, feature-laden product and green technology."
Energy Saving Design
The PX2370 is designed with a simple, sophisticated black and transparent shell. It also incorporates a range of innovations to make it one of the most eco-sensitive LED monitors on the market, while providing an unrivaled user experience with excellent image quality. The monitor contains a number of features to maximize energy efficiency, including Samsung's Smart Sensor Technology, with both proximity and Ambient Light Sensors (ALS), which automatically turn it on and off when not in use. As a result of these innovations, the PX2370 has been awarded with Energy Star and EPEAT Gold Certification.
Vivid, Dynamic Images
The display uses Samsung's Mega Dynamic Contrast Ratio (DCR) technology and 16:9 FHD resolution to display more vivid and dynamic images. This makes it ideal for use across the range of applications, especially wide-format multimedia images, such as video and CAD. With a slender 18mm depth and premium styling, the PX2370 ensures that both the on-screen image and overall design are pleasing on the eye.
Minimizing Environmental Impact
In addition to its energy-efficient technology, the monitor also contains other major advances to minimize environmental impact of its components. The PX2370 uses Samsung's Premium Touch of Color (ToC) Design and is crafted from black and transparent materials that don't require painting, ensuring it contains no Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs), making recycling more simple and safe. The monitor also contains numerous components created from recyclable materials, and is shipped using less packaging materials, further reducing its environmental impact.
The PX2370 as well as additional monitors in the Samsung product line will be on display at Central Hall Booth #11026 during the International Consumer Electronics Show at the Las Vegas Convention Center, January 7 - 10, 2010 and available through Samsung resellers in April 2010.

Seriously is that something I would buy a hardware for ?
When it comes to hardware, I want to know about the performance....!@#$ the environment.
How many people here consider or at least think about the environment when they buy their hardware ?
Samsung, where's my DisplayPort and 120Hz refresh rate on a 24" or bigger panel?
Sony has a 24.5" OLED display at CES...
<<SOURCE>>
My monitor is an EPA gold monitor, which has an eco mode, but I keep my brightness below what the eco mode does.
Thus the reported grand total savings is 10.5 Kg of carbon this year. lol
Side mounted LEDs("With its slim 18mm depth"): crappy backlight uniformity.
TN panel(2ms GTG): crappy view angle.
How about the screen? Is it glossy or not?
As for LED monitors, their sleek look is more than enough for me to buy one, lower power consumption is a bonus for me.
I also not a big fan of 16x9 but that seems to be the direction that the manufacturers are pushing towards.
Sure I'll be back in square 1 if I buy it, but I'll most likely keep it for 5 years if not more, so there's the savings. Even if you don't save money it helps the environment.
