Oh,5.5K(with tax ?) for that sexy LCD ?
How good is for gaming ?
Could not find any review on web.
If it comes with DVI cables then it would be great cos I heard some Samsung monitor does not comes with DVI cable.
But,I saw they comes with DVI cable on site like Amazon.....:?
I'm thinking to upgrade my 17" CRT.....

What The.... !!!
b2030 costs 6.5k not 5.5
it is a good monitor(great viewing angles)
you just have to buy a DVI cable(vga cable included)
yes tilting is a bit problematic
but the monitor has a feature of you selecting the picture angle
without adjusting the tilt physically :)

@ funkysourav - yep, Samsung B2030 price should be aroun ~6.5k but OP on the post No.8 has posted it's price as 5.5k - I think that was a typo.

@ Revolution - if you are willing to spend 7.5k then you should better get BenQ 22" G2220

recently bought a DELL 20" LED backlit monitor for 6.8k
the monitor is nice having better contrast ratio than the other in the league at this price point
everything us just fine but i think the response time is little more

^^^
Dell IN2020M has 5ms response time
same as others i think!
it is a very great monitor and very sexy too
but its display angle is still 160/160
:) congrats on the purchase

@piyush
at 6.5k mark nothing beats samsung B2030
i have tested both Dell s2009W and Samsung B2030(own it)
trust me their is a little but prominent edge with Samsung one(170/160 over Dell's 160/160)
don't go by the Dynamic Contrast Ratio(they mean nothing)
see the Typical Contrast Ratio(1000:1 generally)
and Response time(5ms generally)
and viewing angle
and most important of all does the Monitor look good? :)

ok .. sorry for the late update . had been a bit busy

got a dell in2020m
Rs.6750 ..

love it
obviously cant compare it to any other as this is my first LCD (this is LED) but its great

didnt have any need for a bigger screen , so didnt need the benq 22" suggested on the first page

still getting used to the viewing angles being limited .. but after using a crt for 15 years , it was to be expected

a few pics of whats in the box

Right off the assembly line
Hi All, wanted to purchase a 20" LCD Monitor with a budget of less than 7k
Went to SP Road Bangalore today and the latest inlc. tax are :

LG 2043C for Rs. 6100
Samsung B2030 for Rs. 6600

Both have 3 years onsite warranty (one guy even said LG has 5 years if u register urself online) and the tech specs are more or less the same.
Some dealers also suggested Dell but i hear it has just a 1 year warranty ?
Will mostly use it for browsing, office work, movies, and light gaming

Just wanted to know which of LG / Samsung is the better one in terms of Image Clarity
and overall quality ?
Also, Karan my case is the same as urs (has 17" CRT before going in for an LCD/LED now) i hear the lags and contrast in LED is more compared to LCD- any particular reason that made take the Dell In 2020 ?
