    Samsung SM-226BW V2

    is anyone here using one?

    Also is there still a lottery on the pannels on this monitor or are they all the same "S" style pannel now?

    Do you mean the 226CW. They released that to get rid of the panel lottery. I nhave one and its really really really good.

    So would you recommend the 226CW over the 2232BW?

    The 226CW has one of these "colour improvement glossy yada yada layers" which completely distorts the colour output. If you like bright colours (which according to Samsung most costumers do), then go for it.

    M8, your talking out of your buttocks lol. There is no glossy coating. It has a Wide Colour Gamut. Which doesn't really do much. Its basically a 226BW with a slightly updated panel guaranteed to be made by Samsung.
