Can I put a wall mount on this monitor?

[ingeborgdot]

I am looking to put a wall mount on this monitor. I can't find any info anywhere if it will work.

Not an easy question to answer, because the Newegg specs do not contain the required info.

To make sure that your chosen LCD or plasma is even capable of being wall-mounted, you need to determine if it is "VESA Compatible." The easiest way to check this is to see if the box or owners manual mentions "VESA" or the words VESA mount. VESA stands for ?Video Electronics Standards Association? and is just another way of saying this display is designed to work with VESA standard mounts.

If you don?t see any mention of this, all isn?t lost. Just look at the back of the display and check to see if it has four (or more) threaded screw inserts that a mount can be affixed to. If so, you?re good to go.

Of course, that is not easy to do at Newegg. So, I would suggest you go find that model in stock at BestBuy or some other local store and see for yourself.

It is only a 22" monitor, and most wall mounts can hole much larger devices.

BTW - you can't put a wall mount on any monitor - but you can put the monitor on a wall mount.

The Samsung brochure (http://www.samsung.com/us/syst...X_BWX_Brochure_LR.pdf) shows that it's VESA compatible (100mm mounting holes).

Newegg -> "Manufacturer Info." tab beneath the picture of the monitor -> Specifications tab on Samsung web page for this monitor -> link to the PDF brochure

Basicly if there are 4 screw holes in the back opf the monitor is can be mounted with a standard bracket. If not then you'll have to find a special bracket to mount it on.

I'm not sure about this one as it doesn't state. But yes, like others have said you should look for VESA compatible. I had some older Samsung ones and they're connected to the stand so those weren't. I don't know about the new ones now though.
