CES 2013 Samsung has applied its magic touch this 27-inch Windows 8 ready display

An £800 monitor has to be something really special, and unfortunately this Samsung display falls short.

Samsung's new Series 7 HD TV-monitor has a hefty feature set. But what about the image quality?

The S27B750 is a 27-inch, 1080p display with a polished black bezel integrated into a glossy white stand. It's more B&O than Apple, and may or not be to your taste, but it's both stylish and understated.

Samsung's stylish 24-inch monitor can mirror your smartphone's display, but can it compete with IPS on image quality?

Samsung combines the good bits of PVA and IPS to create this PLS monitor.

Movies, games, PCs and TV. Can a single screen really display content for every count? That's the challenge for the Samsung T27A550 Series 5 LED HD TV monitor. It's a 27-inch beast with an integrated digital TV tuner and enough inputs to cope with everything from desktop PCs to games consoles and set-top boxes.

We couldn't recommend this monitor as a frugal purchase, but if you did buy one we'd be jealous. Why? Because it's big, elegantly designed, slim, and boasts good picture quality. What the 3D lacks in effectiveness, it almost takes back in usability in comfort. Overall, it's a worthy addition to your desk.

The Samsung B2330HD is the latest in an increasing market of TV/monitor combosm, aiming to combine the televisual excellence of the LCD TV with the convenience and clarity of a PC monitor.

Got a desktop-replacement laptop and fancy adding a second display in dual-monitor mode? Then the Samsung LD220Z Lapfit Touch is quite literally for you. It's a 22-inch Full HD screen specifically designed to work well with portable PCs. That's not all. As the name suggests, this monitor also has full multi-touch functionality. In fact, it doesn't even need special drivers. Simply connect via USB to any Windows 7 PC and the touch capabilities are enabled.

PC monitor and HDTV technology have been converging in recent years. The new Samsung SyncMaster FX2490HD takes that trend to its logic conclusion. Superficially, it's a pretty ordinary 24-inch PC monitor, albeit a snazzy-looking example with an LED backlight. But it also packs a digital TV tuner and IR remote.

In recent years, desktop monitors with cheap TN panels have been the bane of our computing lives. But what about desktop monitors with expensive TN panels? Enter the new Samsung PX2370. It's a paradox in a flat panel.

Can we be Sam-swung with Sammy's new 23" monitor?

Can this 30" behemoth justify its high price?

With a bulky bezel and glossy black finish, it wouldn’t be entirely accurate to claim that Samsung’s group test entry was understated. Although it’s by no means an unattractive unit with subtle silver touches, it does have a sizable amount of desk presence.

The Samsung SM226CW got off to a good start as soon as it came out of the box as it looks great. The shiny black bezel contrasts with the matt-silver strip running across the bottom of the display and the aluminium power button looks very smart.

Exclusive We're off to a good start with this monitor. It exhibits the same winning design as some of Samsung's HDTVs, and the glossy black casing and deep colour range signal that the 2232BW is a quality device. Yet is it more living room chic than home office style?

With this new Samsung monitor, LED backlight technology moves down from the four-figure stratosphere into the mainstream.

At £800, the XL20 is the best value LED currently available, and while Samsung has opted for an AU-Optronics A-MVA 20in panel instead of its own, the build quality, chassis and matte screen are to Samsung's customary high standard

Lag. It's a small word. But it's a big problem for this otherwise rather awesome 24-inch monitor. It's utterly baffling that a company like Samsung considers the 50ms of input lag this display suffers from to be acceptable

So what's the deal with a 19-incher that costs as much as this? Your extra money may not buy you a glowing ring of lights such as with the LG Flatron Fantasy Ring, but you do get Samsung's new cold-cathode flourescent backlight...

Most TFTs look rather like a rectangular box that is mounted on a stick, not so with the Samsung SM932B. This is rather curvier and more fashion-conscious than that. It stands on an oval base and the shiny curved housing vaguely resembles a large iPod
