2010-08-03 Update
On 2010-08-02, soon after writing 2010-08-02 review, the monitor died again. Since the monitor had come back from first repair, just one week later. Same sympton, flashing + vertical / horizontal streaks. Will ship to their service vendor, AMKOTRON again. Not only the initial reliability but also the repair quality are well under my expectation. I changed the rating from 4 stars to 1 star. I recommend not to buy for anyone who does not want to take a risk.
2010-08-02
I bought this monitor on 2008-12-06 through Amazon and it had been fine until 2010-07-15. All of sudden, as others experienced, the monitor got flashing, horizontal, vertical streaks. On 2010-07-16, contacted to Samsung customer service center and given a free shipping label through an e-mail. On 2010-07-19, shipped to CA outsource, AMKOTRON and they received it on 2010-07-22 and shipped back to me 2010-07-23 and I received on 2010-07-27 via UPS. The problem was fixed. No more flashing, no more streaks. According to description, "Failure Description: REAR CABINET BROKEN, Repair Action: Replacement, Part: CONTROL DOOR". Contrary to other reviewers' experiences, the turnaround was quick and the outcome was satisfactory.
 Great Display Aug 01, 2010
I have had the pleasure of owning this magnificent display for a little over a year now. I had read many reviews from others who initially purchased their monitors only to find deficiencies in its pixels or received a non working monitor. To further make this problem worse it appears that Samsung was severely lacking in the customer service department. Despite all of this I went ahead and ordered one figuring that the majority of reviews that are written by consumers are going to be the negative type. I received my monitor and have not had a single issue with it since it's purchase.
The monitor is breathtakingly huge and takes a little getting used to for someone who is not used to working with 30 inch displays. The native resolution of 2560X1600 provides a beautiful landscape in anything your doing. I purchased the monitor to play PC games with and it has not disappointed me yet. Be warned however that running many games at the monitors 2560X1600 native resolution will require a significantly powerful graphics card to power it. The only thing this monitor lacks is an HDMI input and High Definition capabilities. Overall this is a solid display and I would recommend it to anyone who does not need HD capabilities.
High Failure Rate Jul 30, 2010
I have had two Samsung 305T's for almost 3 years now. My first one died about 2 years after I got it and the replacement just died today (2 days shy of my warranty expiring). I really like the monitor but I have read too many stories that there is an issue with this model. I would stay far away from this and consider a Dell or Apple instead.
 Excellent Monitor May 28, 2010
I've had my Samsung 305T for over a year now - it's the best monitor that I've purchased to date.
You're in for a treat. But know the details. Apr 30, 2010
I absolutely love my Samsung 305Ts. I have owned my first unit for 2 years, and just recently purchased a second unit to move to a dual 30" displays setup.
The flat panels perform wonderfully and I would not consider any other display. First you need to understand:
- These are digital-only displays that have a single dual-link DVI input.
- This is NOT a TV replacement or HD resolution display - it is much higher resolution.
- You need a powerful graphics card
- There's no configuration options other than brightness. This is due to the digital configuration - use your computer system to calibrate if needed
Designed for
- Engineers and software developers
- Medical
- Designers
Not designed for
- Mom, dad, your typical users
- Gamers: resolution is too high for a high-frame rate experience on most hardware
If you try watching HD video on a 2560-pixel wide display, you realize how most displays have not progressed in years. DPIs remain the same, or lower, while with the Samsung you do have a 2K+ display.
As a professional software developer, I find the extra resolution very important. A single widescreen 305T initially replaced my dual-24" setup, until in April 2010 I moved to dual 30"'s.
One note:
Some early first generation units have a "fan/clicking noise" issue. Warranty handles these repairs.
