Your Samsung monitor includes an on-screen display menu, or OSD, for adjusting the monitor's brightness, contrast, color, size and skew. These settings adjust the display to suit your personal preferences or the brightness of your work environment. Optimally adjusting the OSD settings makes the screen easier to see and may reduce eye strain when working long hours in your business. The Samsung OSD resides within the monitor itself, so it functions independently of the operating system and does not require additional software.
1.Connect the Samsung monitor to your computer and power on both devices. Although it is not vital to connect a video source, it helps you properly adjust the monitor when your typical work display is on-screen while making adjustments.

3.Press the arrow keys to highlight a tab and press the 'Select' button to access adjustments on that tab.
4.Press the arrow keys again to highlight a specific option, such as brightness or contrast, and press 'Select.'

6.Press 'Menu' again to exit the OSD. Alternatively, wait several seconds without pressing buttons for the menu to automatically close.
Warning
- For Samsung monitors containing the MagicBright utility, which is accessible by pressing the 'Down' arrow, make sure the Dynamic Contrast feature is disabled by scrolling down the MagicBright menu and selecting any MagicBright option other than Dynamic Contrast. Otherwise, the Picture and Color menus will not be accessible within the OSD.

We use our smartphones all the day. The mere thought of parting from one’s smartphone can give goosebumps to many. We use it so much that most of us have fallen in love with our current smartphone. We try to take good care of it. Some do that by installing anti-virus apps, while the others like do that by keeping it snappy and clean. All goes fine until we hit a roadblock while selecting a type of screen protector to install on its large gorgeous display. Is it matte-finish screen guard, or the glossy scratch guard? Both will keep your display scratch free, but you should choose wisely. Matte(anti-glare) and glossy(shiny) not only differ in their overall finish, but can significantly change the user experience.
Matte Vs. Glossy Screen Protector: Effects on User Experience
Readability
Indoors- Both types of screen protectors, matte as well as glossy finish make for a good indoor (controlled lighting) reading experience.
Outdoors- In bright outdoors, i.e. during the day, the anti-glare screen guards have an edge over the glossy screenguards as they reflect very little light. The glossy screen guards can be used in bright outdoors, but only after cranking up the brightness level which in turn will drain your battery quickly.

Vividness & Sharpness
Matte finish screenguards excel at outdoor use but they will not be a good fit for you if watch a lot of movies, and browse image heavy websites. The anti-glare finish transmits less than light than the glossy finish, and hence affects the color gamut and sharpness slightly. We would advice that you try a matte finish scratch first and then buy it. It might be a dealbreaker for some.
Change Screen Brightness
On the contrary, the glossy screen guards suffer from no such issue and offer the best image viewing.
Fingerprints and Smudges
The glossy scratch guards can get covered up with dust and oil in no time and thus spoil the user experience. You need to clean these screen protectors as often as you can to maintain a good viewing.
The smudging effect is not much visible on matte finish screen guards. Some people feel that anti-glare screen guards are smoother on the surface than glossy scratch protectors and hence improve the touch-input.
To sum it up, we would recommend that you choose the type of screen protector based on your usage and requirements.

Choose Matte screen protector if you: 1. Stay outdoors for most of the time. 2. Can’t clean the screen protector frequently. 3. Prefer readability over image quality.
Go for the Glossy screen guard if you: 1. Work Indoors. 2. Are a smartphone photographer, or a movie buff. 3. Prefer image quality over outdoor use.

Combating Visual Fatigue
When you are staring at a computer screen for most of your day you’re probably familiar with dry, red and tired eyes. You’ve probably tried most of the popular solutions; shifting the window blinds, changing the angle of your laptop or monitor in relation to light sources, adjusting the brightness of the LCD screen or increasing the font size on the screen.
However, these are only stop gap solutions to a problem that won’t go away as long as you’re spending so much time in front of the screen. Protection for your eyes is important and the short term symptoms of eye fatigue (headaches, difficulty focusing and blurred vision) can make your life difficult.
One way to combat computer eye strain is to install an antiglare screen protector. There are only a few on the market and they range from the bulky hang off the monitor type to the film overlay on the LCD screen. Using any of these, you can eliminate nearly all of the UV light that reflects from your screen into your eyes.
The most effective screen protector and the one that offers the best value for the money is the antiglare, non-adhesive screen protector offered by NuShield. The thin film slides between the LCD screen and the display case and stays in place without slipping. NuShield screen protectors absorb 99% of the UV rays hitting your LCD screen thus reducing the glare and UV light bounce back to your eyes. NuShield films are also easy to install, less than two minutes, and can be cleaned without harming the film or the computer screen.
There’s more to eliminating eye strain than using a screen protector, however. Screen protectors can act as antiglare devices, but they can’t change your viewing habits.
One of the quirks of human biology is that, for some reason, our blinking tends to slow when we’re performing visually intense activities. You can try to remind yourself by remembering to blink every few minutes or to try and look away from the screen from time to time. Try using a timer to make sure you look away from your screen every 30 minutes or so. Get up and walk around, and try to focus your eyes on something farther away.
If you wear contact lenses, leave them in the case when you’re doing computer work. Despite technological advances, eyes tend to dry out faster when they’re wearing contacts, so try using your glasses.
Keep a bottle of “rewetting drops” next to your desk for those days when your workload is intense. Contact lens wearers use them to moisten their eyes when contacts dry them out, but anyone can benefit from them. You can usually find them in any drugstore.
By combining a high-quality antiglare screen protector like NuShield with these simple steps, you can eliminate eye strain almost entirely.
NuShield provides antiglare screen protectors for a wide range of devices, from PC and Mac desktop LCD displays, tablets, laptops and notebooks to SmartPhones, PDAs, GPS devices and more. Iobit advanced systemcare 10 key. Custom size screen protectors are also available.
