Samsung SyncMaster P2770HD Monitor Announced in Korea [SyncMaster P2770HD with Built-in TV Tuner, 1080p Full HD & HDMI Input]

Those in the market for a new computer monitor should know that Samsung has just released a new model for the Korean market. Dubbed Samsung SyncMaster P2770HD, the 27-inch panel not only features an 1080p Full HD resolution it also doubles as a HDTV (with a HDMI input) and allows you to watch your favorite TV programs as it has a built-in TV tuner.

Along the same lines, the new 16:9 widescreen Samsung SyncMaster P2770HD Monitor delivers a 5ms response time, 50,000:1 dynamic contrast ratio, and brings Picture In Picture and Picture By Picture modes that allow you to combine your desktop with a TV source. On top of that, the SyncMaster P2770HD won’t clutter your work bench because it features a pair of 3 watt stereo speakers that delivers 5.1 channel sound (wicked) in case your home theater decided it’s time to stop working.

Priced for Korea at 549,000 Won, which is some $475 at today’s rate, there’s no official word if the new Samsung SyncMaster P2770HD monitor reaches the US shore anytime soon.
