Well done Samsung, then, for focusing on the static (or real) contrast ratio of 3,000:1 on its sparkling new F2370H and F2380MX 23-inchers. These are certainly not the first panels to reach that plateau (check the <em>Prad<\/em> link below showing the Eizo EV2333 achieving 5,000:1 in testing), but let&#8217;s not argue over PR semantics. They do boast higher contrast than most and both come with 1920 x 1080 resolution and HDMI inputs, whereas the more professionally oriented 2380 model (see our hands-on <a href=\"http:\/\/translate.google.com\/translate?js=y&amp;prev=_t&amp;hl=en&amp;ie=UTF-8&amp;layout=1&amp;eotf=1&amp;u=http%3A%2F%2Fkr.engadget.com%2F2009%2F11%2F29%2Fit-month-2009-syncmaster-f2380%2F&amp;sl=ko&amp;tl=en\">here<\/a>) also boasts height and swivel adjustments along with an extra DVI port.
