I have this monitor bought from CostCo. I used the HDMI input, the odd thing was that the picture didn't fill the screen fully and I thought it was defective but my display adapter is a Radeon R9 200 series and you have to run the AMD Catalysts Control Center, open up 'My Digital Flat Panels', and then click on 'Scaling Options'. In there it was set by default to 10% Underscan, I just pulled the slider to 0% and it was fixed. The screen has awesome contrast and produces deep luxurious colors right out of the box. I run games that get up to 270 FPS and there is no lag or blur.
Got this Monitor today and I'm very impressed with it!!The sharpness and color is brilliant.... The only thing that I don't like is the stand!!! No need to change anything it is just right straight out of the box...It looks really nice, I must say I had doubts buying it but I am very happy....The game mode is easy to use(Just a simple on/off) and it makes colors more stand out...But I prefer to play with it off!! I see someone said you should change the HDMI 'black level" to normal, well I tell you what, it takes the sharpness away and makes it look like an TN panel....So don't do that....Overall the screen is beautiful and it is perfect for gaming and watching movies ect.
It's a great review! I was hesitating between this monitor and LG MP57vq, could you advise me on which is the better alternative? Important for me is which one has the better (more vibrant colors) and is more reliable (less prone to defects)? :)
Great screen but I have a problem when its starting up in HDMI. It takes well over a minute to get the screen on. In Analogue it`s starts direct with my SSD. Cant`seem to find a setting to speed it up at start up. Thanks.
Have you experienced any issues with backlight bleeding or PLS glow? I'm seriously considering buying one. The only drawbacks i red about this monitor was noticeable backlight bleeding and IPS glow.
Alexa Fisher technically speaking it doesn't have IPS glow as it isn't an IPS monitor :p but yes there is some PLS glow and backlight bleeding. Is it detrimental? I don't think so, every monitor that isn't an OLED panel will have these issues and I've seen far worse that what this screen has.
Is Samsung 24" Series 5 D590 snd LS24D590PL/XY are the same model with this one? I'm so confuse that I saw them in Dick Smith and Bing Lee, their stands cannot be adjusted.
More than likely the same. Here in NZ it is known as Series 5 D590, S24D590L, S24D590PL, all pretty much the same thing as far as I can tell. The stand only has tilt adjustability, no height, pivot or rotation. You also cannot mount it to a VESA compatible stand as it has no VESA mounts :(
I'm trying to decide between Samsung S24D590PL and the new S24E370DL. I felt excited about the DisplayPort and FreeSync features, but after reading PRAD's review where they mention slower response times in games and the lack of reviews out there, I'm kinda stuck. Other reviews I found on youtube (XtremeHardware and COMPUTER BILD TV - of the 27" version once again) however state that the response times are actually quite good, same with the hardware.info Test results as much as one can draw conclusions from them. I am beginning to wonder whether Prad did their test with a broken/bad HDMI cable or something like that, or maybe they just hit a defective panel? I've noticed their screen going black a few times during gameplay, also reporting an sRGB of just under 90% is also some what dubious considering similar older models pass around 95% comfortably. And other reviews state numbers around 96%.
Anyone know how to take this monitor apart and clean the inner screen. I have a dead crushed bug in the middle of the screen and it is annoying the hell out of me.
What video do you suggest for this monitor? I just bough this monitor from Costco but my video card could only up to 1680x1050 but not 1920x1080 resolution. HELP NEEDED.
X2KO My current video card is Radeon HD 7570. I don't gaming a lot, the only game I play is dota 2 but I only play when I have leisure time so it's not a daily basis. Current video card can't support the optimal resolution which is 1920x1080. Looking for an upgrade to experience the best resolution of this new monitor.
teemac321 your card supports 1920x1080, sounds like a driver issue. Open "Programs & Features", locate "ATI Catalyst Install Manager", select it and click "Uninstall/Change". In the next window, ensure to select "Express Uninstall ALL ATI Software". Complete the uninstallation. Also, search for any folder related to AMD/ATI and delete those. Download and run the latest "Catalyst Software Suite" from the AMD website and install the new driver. Restart the computer when prompted. Hopefully that'll fix the problem.
I have a ps4 and a gaming pc is this a good monitor to buy for pc and console gaming? Also is the response time 5 ms and 60 hz? It looks really nice and I would consider buying this :) :)
i cant choose to buy this model or the samsung LS24D390HL monitor, can you tell me some pros and cons of this model except the unstability of this stand. And nice review man.
Hi Ricardo, first I just want to say that the stand on this thing is very good. In the video I was using quite a bit of force trying to get it to fall over but it was very stable compared with many other standard stands I've used. Yes it wobbles, but I don't have any fear of it tipping over if it gets knocked. The specifications on the S24D590PL and the LS24D390HL seem to be the same. The only significant difference I can see is with the inputs, the S24D590PL has 2x HDMI inputs where as the LS24D390HL only has one. If that isn't a major concern for you I'd say go for the one that has the most pleasing design to you, or the one that is cheaper at the time you buy it. Cheers.
X2KO thanks for your response i think i'll go for this monitor i prefer this design over the other samsung monitor and the difference of 10 eu is not the problem for me so if the specifications are thesame i'll look to the design and then i like this one more
MrBKEaves TrustedReviews used a Leo Bodnar Lag Tester and in its standard setup the Samsung S24D590PL measured around 17ms input lag. Anything below 20ms using this method is very good, making the S27D590PL exceptionally good for gaming - a double bonus considering it's a fundamentally good screen as well, something that can't be said of some 'gaming' monitors.
Alexander Kit you mean even S24D590L wobbles too? I now have switched to HP Pavilion 25Xi and it's has steel in the stand (neck), base and sturdy too. It doesn't even wobble when i put my arm on table or while typing. it just stay put, no wobbles :)
Alexander Kit the stand is a Samsung proprietary design. It also has no VESA mounting holes, therefore you are pretty much stuck with the stand that comes in the box. It isn't the best stand, but it is also far from the worst. It is also more stable than the stand that comes with the S24D390HL. th-cam.com/video/dmNRAYEz-wc/w-d-xo.html
Its a little expensive but if you buy these adaptors..www.amazon.co.uk/Adapter-Bracket-Monitors-U28D590D-S24D590PL/dp/B00Z8WYDIU/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1466280635&sr=8-1&keywords=samsung+s24d590+adapter and then just a mount and put it on the wall!

thx for the info..i already ordered one :)
How can you get 270 FPS on a 60 Hz monitor? are you sure? thank you in advance for the answer,Ted !
I also bought it from costco but mine doesnt say its the S24D590L, it just says S24D590

Mine will not turn on anymore. I bought a power cord replacement that offers enough power, but it still will not turn on
hi i want to ask you wich better this monitior 23.6 or the the 27 inch 1920*1080 pls ??
23.6", 1080p stretched across 27" looks to pixelated in my humble opinion.
thanks, but you late for your reply , i bought the 27 inch anyway
does this have built in speakers?
+Bob lat No it does not
should i buy this one ??

teemac321 depends on how much you want to spend and what you need it for. What video card do you have now?
X2KO
My current video card is Radeon HD 7570.
I don't gaming a lot, the only game I play is dota 2 but I only play when I have leisure time so it's not a daily basis.
Current video card can't support the optimal resolution which is 1920x1080.
Looking for an upgrade to experience the best resolution of this new monitor.
teemac321 I think you are using RGB video input. Try HDMI
Tomek Zet I did. I am using HDMI input.
teemac321 your card supports 1920x1080, sounds like a driver issue. Open "Programs & Features", locate "ATI Catalyst Install Manager", select it and click "Uninstall/Change".

Download and run the latest "Catalyst Software Suite" from the AMD website and install the new driver. Restart the computer when prompted. Hopefully that'll fix the problem.
what speakers did you use for this and what cables did you have to use?
you can use any speakers that can connect through a 3.5mm audio jack
I have a ps4 and a gaming pc is this a good monitor to buy for pc and console gaming? Also is the response time 5 ms and 60 hz? It looks really nice and I would consider buying this :) :)

No, I gave up on buying it😂

Некогда бы не купил монитор с большим количеством глянца
The bezels have a lot of gloss, but the screen itself has a matt finish and isn't very reflective.
Ricardo De Koning Hey. If you bought this monitor you can tell me how to work a? Apparently there are problems with backlight in it.
how do i select the hdmi port that is connected to my pc
Does this monitor have an aux cord jack?
Firstname Lastname yeah
Firstname Lastname it has a 3.5mm headphone/speaker jack for outputting the audio from HDMI input
Can some 1 link me the drivers for this monitor pls , i cant find them
I don't understand why anyone would enable something like "Game Mode". Utterly destroys the original brightness / contrast.
Im gonna buy S27D590PL Tomarro for my ps4
So is it good?
75hz?
hey bro, can you measure how narrow is the frame? is it a 0.9?
high, yes 0.9mm, but it looks slimmer due to it tapering off at the edge
is this monitor 4k? if not can someone tell me a good cheap monitor that supports 4k. and where i can buy them Thank you
4k monitors ain't cheap about 500 bucks for a decent one

What's the input lag like?

X2KO its 5ms
zubaida Ahmad 5ms is it's claimed pixel response time, not input lag time.
X2KO ah yes, just realized I answered incorrectly
just bought this for $200 :)
+XxGreenKnightxX where did you buy it ? and is it 4k?
Where did u buy this from
The Dr3am3r best buy bro
AGM best buy
XxGreenKnightxX is it a 4k resolution?
Can you use this for a PS4? If so would it work well?
+KnicksFan 7 it will work fine with any device that outputs over HDMI, PS4 included.
Can I still buy this anywhere?
It is an old model now, I believe it has gone EOL (end of line)
Is it good for gaming?
XDavid HD checkout my other video here th-cam.com/video/dmNRAYEz-wc/w-d-xo.html where I talk a little about gaming on it.
The button just goes crazy and the monitor keeps going Store mode
Very fragile screen, mine stopped working after 7 years today and screen panel was degraded and I noticed the screen was not glass
None of LCD screens have glass in front. Plasma do have front glass. How it degraded? Backlight, brightness issues?
Hi, does anyone have issue with this monitor that wobbles ?
Stuart Lee yes, it's really annoying.
Alexander Kit you mean even S24D590L wobbles too?
I now have switched to HP Pavilion 25Xi and it's has steel in the stand (neck), base and sturdy too. It doesn't even wobble when i put my arm on table or while typing. it just stay put, no wobbles :)
yes, it does. the stand is an "achilles heel" of this monitor, otherwise, it's damn near perfect.
plus, i tried searching the web if the stand is replaceable and couldn't find a single ad for it.
Alexander Kit the stand is a Samsung proprietary design. It also has no VESA mounting holes, therefore you are pretty much stuck with the stand that comes in the box. It isn't the best stand, but it is also far from the worst. It is also more stable than the stand that comes with the S24D390HL.

I just got that monitor yesterday and it has 4 dead pixels. Gonna return it ;-;
In all the official samung images the silver part of the stand looks brushed but here it looks glittery q.q I can't trust samsung no more lol.
