Samsung sells different panels under the same monitor name, so what? That's what X-bit labs thinks about it. It's a common practice among display manufacturers, and the panels choosen for the 226BW are of "identical specs". That's what they say.

I usually trust this people, but in this case I'm a little bit resilient. They don't provide data to defend their take on the subject. On the other hand, BeHardware is more or less specialized in monitors, and their oposing opinion was based on a long and meticulous review.

If that were all of it I would believe BeHardware, but a trusted distributor I know also says that this monitor's problems can be mostly corrected using color profiles. With information going in all directions, I would just stay away from this model if I were you.
