man what a stupid design from samsung. you shouldnt need to take apart the panel to take the base off.

Great video, just followed video instructions today to remove stand.. Worked flawlessly... Whoever designed it is a dork

Fantastic video showing why this monitor should never be bought. Its like the engineers were deliberately pissed off at Samsung, I can't imagine anyone saying ok to this design intentionally.

2:02 you will probably butcher the slat. But that's OK. You only need to pry it apart enough to slide a spludger (or guitar pick / credit card) in the gap and work that to the right until you hear a click. After that you can carefully pry the rest apart using your hands and the spludger. Don't worry if you butcher the first gap, it seems unavoidable. What a fantastic video. I needed to remove the bracket to fit a Herman Miller monitor arm. The Herman Miller bracket was too large so this had to go. I'm so pleased I was able to do it with this expert guidance and the only damage was on that first gap. This video reminds me of what RU-vid used to be. Thanks from London. Right here goes monitor #2. Update: I didn't butcher the plastic on the second one. The secret is to use the correct size screwdriver. If it is just right the plastic will come apart without damage. Too small and it will just damage the plastic. If that does happen it's not a disaster though. Just use the gap created to start prying.

For everyone out there, you don't really need to take out the last part, I removed the base because I bought a monitor stand and the last part can be left alone. It seems like there's no way to screw in the metal part of the monitor stand with the old part in the way, but if you slide the part in an upwards motion you'll have enough space to do it. Also thanks for the tutorial!

Excellent video, incredibly stupid design. Had to do this on 2 CF390 Samsungs. The first worked fine. The second now has a 4" band of dead pixels from top to bottom in the right hand side. I've bought a total of 4 Samsung monitors. From now on I'm going with another brand. I can't afford to pay double or triple price for a monitor due to ridiculous design.

I struggled to remove the base stand (standing leg) but your video made it a cake walk. Thank you.

Your video was excellent. With your help, I've just completed monitor surgery. It was the scariest thing I've done all year. We have to wait until she wakes up before we can assess how the surgery went but so far everything looks good.

Thank you soooo much sir! I successfully removed the neck And thankfully the monitor still works without a single damage! Thanks to you for the encouragement!

Many people have already said this but I want to show my appreciation as well. AMAZING video, it was like you did this for me. Thank you so much!

Very precise instructions! It worked the same way with my curved Monitor 27. Thank you Michael!

God bless you. First time having a wall mount for my monitor, and it started to worry me that I didn't see any visible screws from the outside that was holding the stand. Your video really helped!

Thanks for this video! It saved me from the headache of removing the monitor stand!👍

Thank you, I couldn't have gotten this done without you. I hate that now the motherboard is exposed to dust and dirt.

after seeing this video, you literally inspired me to cut mine off with a reciprocating saw.. it worked great. thanks for the time saver

thanks for the video man, really helped me alot because i was struggling on how to disconnect it

This video so so god damn helpful and so easy to understand!! Really appreciate it 🙏🏻😅 didn’t want to break my monitor

Thank you…amazing video….I don’t know where Samsung’s Product owner was thinking when he allowed those support holes to be placed where they were.

Thank you for this amazing guide. It worked 100% as you shown

Thank you. Saved me a lot of hassle when I was moving house

Thanks bro for saving my life

Thanks too dude. I'm in a little town in France, so it's difficult to get a new wall mount kit in one day.

This was so helpful and concise. Thank you, sir!

Excellent! Mine is a 2009 tv and your instructions were right on. TY

Thats was handy and helpful man. Congrats from Brazil!

I had my monitor mounted on a swinging arm with its stem sticking out for the last year… 😂 much better now ;) Thankyou!

Thank you very much for the video. I was strungling hard with my monitor (it is the exact same as yours)

Thank you so much! I was watching someone else's video and they removing the frame of the monitor out to remove the stand 😅

Very helpful and clear explanation!

Thank you for the vedio man.i was confused how to disassemble it.

You save me a lot of time. Thank you for this video!

This is a great video. Thank you. I never would have figured this out on my own. That said, this is a crazy design. Samsung apparently couldn't imagine that someone would want to remove the stand to mount the monitor, either on the wall or on a robot arm? Nuts... Update: Sadly, my monitor (P2350) isn't this design. 😑

thanks a lot sir ! this is exactly what i needed for mounting my screens with the VESA system =)

Thanks dude, exactly what I wanted to know.

Nice!, Me ayudaste bastante a entender correctamente el desarmado de cada una de las piezas.

this was exactly what i was looking for, thank you so much!

Thankyou very much for this video, it saved my life!!

The reason I want to take the stand off is to be able to use a VESA mount, but I can see the little plastic part around where the stand used to sit sticks out a bit. Do you know if this would be an issue for VESA mounts that have 75mm as well as 100mm? Very detailed video too thanks.

Thank you kind sir for your tutorial, I highly appreciated the effort😊

Thanks for the video, very helpful. Do you know if there is a cover I can purchase because my new mount doesn't cover the holes left from where I removed the stand and I don't want dust getting in. Thanks!

Very helpful and neat video! Thanks!

Thanks a ton.i was about break without knowing this

Hello thanks for this demo. It's very helpful. I have Samsung Sa300 monitor and it has been stored facedown for some time. Now when I tried to use it again there were marks in the middle. Do u have any idea How I can remove that?

What an incredibly helpful video. Thank you so much.

Thankyou sir, i plan to move my monitor, and your video tutor helps.

Thanks a lot my friend. It works!

It is possible to completely remove the back cover to get to the led screen and do repairs there? I was planning to replace my damaged polarizer film there.

Great video you got to the point love it!

Followed this and now the TV has no sound! Any advice on what I might have disconnected? And a fix? Picture is perfect.

It’s almost like why even put the mounting holes on the back for people, when they sought to just leave that big piece on there. Thank you! I just bought one of these with a mount im waiting on. I only half looked into it and just figured it pops off somehow (or a piece to show screws). I can’t believe they designed it this way😑

This was so helpful thank you

Hi Michael! I followed the steps to remove the stand, but when I turned my monitor on again, there was a black line in the middle. Does this mean I damaged something inside in the process of removing the stand? Is this something fixable? Please let me know.

which screw to use for the screen tell me please I want to put the screens on the wall

Thanks for this detail explanation.

Thank you so much. it's really helped

Thank you 🙏 this was very helpful

In case anyone has a SyncMaster 953BW model and wants to take the stand and base off: My case had a different design on the back. The base disassembled the same way except there is no visible way to release the tilt bracket after taking off the bottom part of the base. No way to get a screwdriver in and the view to the release is blocked. However I noticed a dimple/depression right above the bracket on the back of the case. It is not a screw hole. I pressed into it with a Philips screwdriver while puling the bracket and it slid right out! Could not find any other reference to the method and had just about given up on getting the base off.

how do you fix the green haze on screen? it shows up specifically when its cold/raining outside and my house is not enclosed

thanks for the tips, really helped!

Thanks bro thanks so much you just saved my life 😭😭😭

Thank you, save my day.

God's work. This video explains everything so well

Eres el mejor me ayudo mucho 💕

Thank you very much!

Any info for the S22F350FHU model? It doesn't have the same Phillips screw on the back next to the HDMI as tutorials such as yours show. I've tried prying the back off but I'm at a point where it feels like the plastic will snap and it's not closer to being removed

Very helpful, thank you 😊

I think 99% of us stopped after 2 min haha

thanks for the video! :)

고맙습니다. 덕분에 해결했어요. 😭😭❤ Thank you so much 😊 I solved it !!

Worked Perfect!! Thanks!!!

I’ve missed placed the screw. What it is called for me to order it?

Very helpful! ❤

Thanks for the instruction!

Thank you it really helped me! #lifesaver 😎👍🏻

Thank you so much for this clear, lucid tutorial. It was literally the difference between project sucess and giving up on using my dual monitor stand. Can I just say: what spectacularly poor, lazy design engineering by Samsung! Without your instructions, the VESA standard mounting option is functionally inaccessable to the average consumer. That Samsung expects the average user to actually pry open the monitor case to access those two hidden screws just to fully remove a plastic stand is inexcusable! Perhaps in the future, right-to-repair laws will be expanded to penalize manufacturers for building into their products these kinds of obtuse and unnessesarily challenging obstacles to accessing ordinary features (like alternate mounting options).

Thank you so much!!

Thank you!

So I did this and now theres a large white strip going down the right middle side of the monitor covering about a 1/8th of the screen, on top of it now has an extremely hazy tint to the screen now. What happened?

Thanks sir!

Thank´s for the tip.

Thanks a lot for the useful video

Thanks for Your help 🙏

Thanks for the video, but can i apply this steps with this reference ls22f350fhlxzl from Samsung? That don't has the Philips to next to connections :(

This is a great video! But horrible design of the monitor, after completing this, I had many lines of dead pixels. I would recommend not to mess with the case removal but just do the monitor stand removal insteaf

Thank you bhai bacha liya

is this the same for the curved one one with the same foot?

Thanks a lot...!

Thanks for the video info

Is it okay to leave the board exposed from the back due to the attachment removed?

Im struggling to remove the second piece (the part where you press gently on the back of the center of the monitor and tug the piece off.) I’m applying a lot of pressure but it doesn’t seem to do anything at all. What do I do?

Life saver. Thanks.

Very good tuto : to remove the removable arm, it was necessary tocarefully introduce a blade, it was like glued...

Thank you good sir

Thanks, man!!!

Thank you brother

Thank you sir.

bro thank you so much😃

Thank you. :)

Excellent video!!!
