Hello List,
I'm testing the Samsung SyncMaster XL24 with X-Rite's i1 LED
SyncMaster for an upcoming article in Germany. Samsung told me that
the colorimeter is been purpose-built just for the XL-models (20, 24,
30). I tested the profiling procedure with an ordinary i1 display II
according to the i1-LED. The results in fact are better with the i1-
LED. The gray and skin-colors seems to greenish, in yellow I miss
some red and overall it's not well in contrast (too flat), profiled
with i1 II. But the size of the Gamut is almost the same - but
they're all differing a little bit. I had some problems with a i1
Pro. So I guess, but I'm not sure (two different measurement-devices
- two different results!), they're might be right with there
statement:)(:
Sadly the result of the NCE-Software 1.0.24 is almost bad (by
measurement and visually). There is no drawing in deep areas and the
colors appear to deep, too. It looks like there is too much gamma.
But this software is designed for the monitors hardware-calibration.
If there is no problem with my (test-)monitors hardware I would say
the team must improve their software.
Profiled with EyeOne Match and basICColor display the softproof
matches the hard-copy-proof nearly up to 90%. But still, some
pictures seems a little bit flat - when softproof in photoshop is
activated. I think, the grey rendering is a problem of this monitor
(looks always to yellowish/greenish). The U-DACT-analysis of both
profiles are within the tolerance, except of grey - sometimes it is
in, sometimes not! And of course of the S-PVA-Panel the angle of view
is not like one of a monitor with IPS-Panel;)
Hope, it helps! Please understand if I can't tell more about the
monitor while the article is not published yet.

I'll bet both instruments have had independent matrix correction factors

Samsung would have favored one brand of instrument for the European

yet another for North America. I fail to see the marketing logic
behind this
one.
The most unsurprising reason would simply be cost. If the US
market is perceived to be less caring about color, and
more sensitive to price, this may be reason enough.
