Product Description:
Designed for the commercial market, the 305T combines a 16:10 wide-screen design and high, 2560x1600 resolution, making it ideal for a variety of professional applications, including medical, engineering, control rooms, CAD, graphics and design, and desktop publishing.In addition to its specifications, the 305T is equipped with a number of features geared towards the professional user. This includes an 80mm height adjustable stand with flexible tilt and swivel capabilities, USB 2.0 ports and a wide viewing area that can support multi-window applications, helping to create improved work efficiency and reducing the need for two monitors. It also has wall-mounting brackets for space savings.To aid in reduced power consumption, the 305T employs Samsung's Digital Power Management Signaling (DPMS) mode to automatically assess whether the monitor is in use and switches it to stand-by mode, which uses less than two watts of power.

Amazon.com Product Description:
Similar to the smaller-screened SyncMaster series monitors, the Samsung 305T SyncMaster 30-Inch Large Format Digital LCD Monitor offers razor-sharp image clarity and a host of innovative features, but with some serious extra width. Take the next step with the 305T SyncMaster and bring the world into your home or office with greater clarity than before. The image quality of the massive, 30-inch screen offers wide viewing angles with bright colors for a very favorable viewing experience. With a wider viewing angle (178-degree vertical and horizontal viewing angle) Samsung makes sure you can see objects on your screen even when you're leaning over to grab a snack.

With millions of colors bombarding your rods and cones, you'll be impressed with the clearer, brighter imagery that this wide spectrum monitor has to offer. Another impressive feature of the 305T is the pixel pitch, or the distance between pixels. This specification is usually measured in millimeters, and the smaller the pitch the sharper the image. Samsung offers a remarkable 0.250-millimeter pixel pitch for outstanding image clarity. The most talked about spec associated with LCD monitors is the measure of the difference of brightness levels between the brightest white and the darkest dark--the contrast ratio. With a contrast ration of 1000:1, this monitor assures crisp, easy-to-view images. Lastly, Samsung has designed this monitor with MagicContrast to process high-contrast ratios to guarantee an abundant palette of perfect color. Whether you're watching movies or videos with color-rich images, this monitor is the perfect choice.

Other features include compatibility with all major operating systems and a quick 8ms response time that virtually eliminates the "blur" that is present in 25, 16, and 12ms monitors (this is especially good news for gamers). Speaking of a gaming, this monitor is compatible with the Nvidia Geforce 7900GT, GeForce 7800, GeForce 7600, Quadro FX3000 (AGP Type) ATI Radeon X1900XTX, Radeon X1900XT, and Radeon X1800XT graphic cards for some serious large-format gaming action. Connectivity is also important when choosing a monitor. The 305T features a Dual DVI digital link input video signal, a separate H/V sync-type input, and a DV-D (dual link) input connector.

  • 30-inch monitor offers a 178-degree vertical and horizontal viewing angle

Customer Reviews
Average Rating: out of 5 stars
Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Great product, poor manual
Because of the poorly written pamphlet that passes for a manual it took me a while to determine that the monitor wasn't broken on arrival. It was never made clear that there was a hidden "on" switch in the back as well as the one on the front. Turning the monitor on via the front switch without turning on the back switch resulted in an apparently dead monitor. Once I got it working, though, it works great. It would be nice to have better brightness, gamma and color controls though.

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Best upgrade ever.
Bought this for my new mac pro. I absolutely love it. Compared to the Apple 23" Cinema display I run as a second monitor the 305T is brighter and the text sharper. The colors are bright and pleasant. It also works flawlessly with my macbook pro.

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - What a Deal
A 30" monitor for under 800, shipped. Wow. I ordered this on Saturday, slapped on $4 for the Amazon Prime overnight service and was pleasantly surprised to have it show up on Monday. Worked perfectly right out of the box. Good thing the price has gone back up over $1000, or I'd be tempted to get another one.

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Simply The Best
After reading the specs on all monitors in the 26-32" range, I chose the Samsung Syncmaster 305T.With out exaggerating, this is the clearest, most precise monitor I've ever owned, let alone seen.At full resolution with my new Mac Pro dual 3.0gHz Quad Core CPUs and 32GB FBDIMMs, the nVidia with 512MB makes this monitor go POP!Most definitely better than the Apple 30" and at a far better price, though I bought mine at NewEgg, the prices change daily.I have been calibrating with a Huey, ...

Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Oh where oh where is my monitor
I'm sure this is a good monitor if I ever receive it. Mine has been on a UPS truck for the last 3 days. If you order it from Amazon don't let them ship from Electronica Direct. Electronica Direct requires an "In Person" signature. A signed attempted delivery note won't suffice. Good luck if you have a job and can't be home all day to wait for a package.

I won't order from Electronica Direct EVER again.
