Customer Review: Love this monitor, looks are crispy and clear, colors are perfect, lots of adjustment options, love the curve, Samsung makes great product, nice and bright, got it on sale used for my Xbox.

Customer Review: No inbuilt speakers and I hate that cause it looks like it has em. But otherwise this is an amazing monitor. In every way you could think of it for something in this price range

Customer Review: Great monitor. Two HDMI input and one Display Port input, plus 3.5mm audio output sourced from these input options. Both pbp and pip features work fantastic. Adjusting different size and location windows in pip helps get the perfect layout. My monitor has no flaws, and is perfectly clear. I mounted it on the wall using VESA mount and love the wide size. The cable ports point down making setup and connections easy. Unbelievable value for under $200, with quality Samsung branding and support. No complaints so far.

Customer Review: I bought this to replace an aging WQHD/IPS monitor that — I think — was one of the first of such to come out, over ten years ago. It is honestly still a great monitor but I wanted an ultra-wide for work. It surprised me that flat IPS monitors in ultra-wide format are really just not even a thing. If you want ultra-wide and flat, VA is your display technology. So I was a little worried about that to some degree, but pulled the trigger on this, anyway. It’s one of the few high-quality, ultra-wide monitors available, and after doing a lot of investigation had decided I definitely did not want curved.Have to say that I’m very pleased. The clarity of this monitor is as good or better than the IPS monitor had been. And I do love the additional screen real-estate. For basic work it’s perfect. I honestly have no complaints at all, especially given the price I paid.Just a couple things to note. I’m not a fan of the multiple clicks required on the control toggle to switch sources. I have three laptops hooked up to it and it’s a pain to switch. I really wish they would just put a physical toggle on these things that would allow for truly fast switching. The stand that the monitor comes with puts it a little too high — IMO — for comfortable typing at normal desk level. I purchased a separate swing-arm stand for it and now it’s perfect.Would definitely recommend as a basic monitor.

Customer Review: Really like this monitor that I got for my kid. I originally thought the curve was going to be a problem but that definitely proved to not be. It’s very responsive and easy to setup. The colors needed a bit of calibration that I got from a review site but after that it looked good. The quality seems really good for the price. Refresh rate is pretty high but my kid doesn’t have an ultra high end machine so it can’t drive it very often to be honest. Over all though it’s a great monitor that is cheap and gets the job done.

Customer Review: This is a great monitor for the price! Nice and big with plenty of screen real estate. Crisp and bright video. I haven’t had any reason to complain. I treated it gently until I got it mounted due to some of the other reviews, but once I got it secured on the arm, I have no worries. Treat her gently and she’s just fine. The only caveat I have for anyone is to be aware, there are no speakers, so an external is necessary.

Customer Review: I never review my Amazon purchases, but I’m so impressed with this one I had to say something. I had an old Dell monitor that I loved for its color accuracy, but after 12 years the backlight died on me and I had to find a replacement quick and on a tight budget. I caught this one on a limited-time sale for $100, but IMO it would still be an excellent deal at full price.1. The included stand is the most adjustable I’ve ever seen out of the box. Notably, it can rotate into portrait mode in _either direction_ (clockwise or counter-clockwise), which doesn’t sound super impressive, but it makes things like cable management and getting a good look at the inputs much easier, even if you don’t intend to leave it that way.2. The picture quality (and adjustability via the menu) is way above and beyond my expectations. Straight out of the box it had excellent brightness and contrast but the image was way too cool (par for the course, since default configurations are usually optimized for in-store displays where they’re going to be overwhelmed by bright, cool fluorescent store lights). I was able to eyeball-calibrate it to match my primary display in less than 5 minutes using just the built-in menu options. I still need to dig my Spyder out of storage and give it a proper deep-dive software calibration, but already it’s good enough that I’d be comfortable doing most of my design work on this display.3. The included I/O options are excellent. Most of the displays you’ll find in this price range only have 1 HDMI and 1 VGA (?!) input, which doesn’t meet the bare minimum requirements for my home-office setup, where I need to plug my personal desktop in via DisplayPort and my work laptop in (through a DisplayLink dock) via HDMI or DisplayPort. This has 2x HDMI and 1x DisplayPort input for video, plus a headphone-out (for sending audio through the HDMI or DP inputs), and it can also act as a USB hub. While I would have loved some Mini-DP inputs and DP daisy-chaining support like my old Dell had, this is plenty sufficient for my setup, and, again, really atypical for the price range.

Customer Review: This is a really nice monitor. It was very easy to set up. It weighs a lot less than the antiquated Samsung 4:3 monitor it replaced. The bezel is very thin, and color rendering seems excellent. There were no dead pixels. I also was pleasantly surprised to see a built in power supply instead of the ubiquitous “line lump.”The user manual is for multiple models and I wasted some time looking for the menu access buttons to change sources, adjust screen settings, etc. It turns out that with this model everything is accessed via a joystick-style arrangement on the power button. No wonder I couldn’t find any discrete buttons! Samsung should really put an addendum in their instructions concerning this.It should be noted that though the height shown is 19.59″, this is with the stand fully raised. When it’s fully collapsed, the actual height is much closer to 18”. This might be important for someone whose available space is height constrained.The built in headphone output was recognized immediately as another audio device, with no driver installation required. Output level is more than sufficient for earbuds and even works well with full sized headphones. I listened to some uncompressed wave files and quality seems quite good..There are only a couple of negatives that I’ve found so far. One is the placement of the USB and headphone ports; it is virtually impossible to connect to these without physically tilting the monitor up, and even then it’s a hassle. Second, installation would look a bit cleaner if Samsung had supplied rear exit right angles on the monitor end of both the HDMI and Display Port cables. The power cable has a right angle connector on both ends, which is great for the monitor side but may or may not be an issue when you connect it to your AC outlet (I seem to find that these always want to interfere with other plugs, or point in the opposite direction to what you need).Overall I’m very satisfied with my purchase, and recommend this monitor.

Customer Review: Excellent price, easy to connect, decent display. Recommended.

Customer Review: Really impressed with this monitor. Works great and its very crisp.

Customer Review: The screen is better quality than my other 27 inch odyssey the G50D which has very similar specs with exact price at the time as well. Comparing with both monitors, I had them both set to original in settings for picture quality and the brightness level was the same at 50 and the monitor on this one is brighter. I have a picture comparing this monitor and the G50D I also own. The G50D being on top. The designs of the two are a tad different, the G50D has a rectanglish shape on the bottom where the samsung logo is. This newer one is just flat which looks kind of cleaner. The G50D the control button is on bottom of screen. This newer monitor G50F the control button is on the back bottom left. You have to feel all over just to find the stupid thing. It took me a while to find after mounting it on stand and really thought it was missing the button at first. The G50D had a weird thing where edges of screen looked 3D’ish, this newer monitor didn’t have this issue. So back to the title. This newer monitor is good but remember the protective film on the screen to NOT peel from left to right like I did. You are supposed to peel down to up. It left some sticky residue lint on the bottom between screen and bezel. I was able to get most of it out using a thin piece of paper or plastic from a package. The little picture on the bottom left of protective film tells us to peel bottom to top. I thought it was just indicating to peel off before use because I didn’t pay too much attention.

Customer Review: Update: It’s been about two months since I started using this, zero issues, still working like a champ, will try to update periodically.I was initially very hesitant on buying this, my prior monitor was a Sceptre 32″ curved gaming monitor (C326B-185RD), the Sceptre is a VA panel monitor, 1920×1080 with no HDR support.I was hesitant about buying this one because it has an IPS panel, if you Google it you’ll find lots of people saying IPS panels have two problems compared to VA panels:1. “IPS glow”2. Blacks would appear gray.These issues caused some hesitation, I considered going with VA again but ended up going with this instead since I’ve never tried IPS for a gaming monitor. It turned out those fears were overblown, there is a TINY amount of IPS glow but it’s at the four corners and it appears to be a viewing angle artifact, because I can make the glow move by moving my head around. It’s definitely not a physical defect like “light bleeding” where the backlight is separating from the panel or something, it’s only noticeable on a completely black screen (such as a loading screen) and even then it’s barely noticeable, it looks like a very slight hue on the very tips of the four corners. The vast majority of the time you won’t be in a situation to even be able to notice it, even the darkest areas in actual gameplay such as caves, or dark settings in movies, it’s completely unnoticeable, and the blacks do appear as deep blacks, not grays.I attached pictures I took of the Sceptre and Samsung side-by-side with the same images shown on each monitor: a black screen and SMPTE color bars, you be the judge. Note that I turned exposure down when taking these pictures, since these were taken in a room with all lights off, I took them in a room with all lights off to demonstrate how dark the blacks are and to highlight any glow. You can clearly see that the Sceptre’s black screen looks almost light gray with a tremendous amount of glow around the edges, the colors on the Sceptre wash out as a result, the Sceptre is a VA panel that’s supposed to be better at blacks than IPS panels are, yet it’s far worse, the Samsung wins in both colors, blacks, and lesser glow.My Samsung arrived with no defects and no dead pixels. I test that by using an all white screen and an all black screen for dead and live pixels respectively, the monitor has a self-diagnosis feature in the menu that shows you something similar to SMPTE color bars as well.Compared to the Sceptre:✅ This has the same screen size as the Sceptre but a much higher resolution so the pixel density is much higher, making things look less grainy than the Sceptre, very crisp.✅ The IPS panel doesn’t have noticeable ghosting or black smearing compared to the Sceptre’s VA panel.✅ The colors on the IPS panel are extremely vivid compared to Sceptre’s VA panel. The color difference is startling, it breathes new life into even old games that appear washed out or dull in comparison.✅ It has HDR10 support, the Sceptre is SDR only. HDR makes a huge difference, the layman’s explanation for HDR is that things which are supposed to be bright (like sunlight or sunlit areas in games) become physically brighter by increasing the brightness/nits for the actual pixels themselves, which makes the game world pop. On monitors without HDR (SDR), all of the pixels are uniformly lit to the same brightness. I never thought I would need it but now I can’t do without it.✅ I use both Windows 11 and MacOS, the Sceptre had weird issues with MacOS on Apple Silicon, especially in clamshell mode where it would not wake MacOS from sleep or be recognized, this has none of those issues, works perfectly with MacOS on Apple Silicon via HDMI connected to a Belkin Thunderbolt 3 dock.✅ Has much more configurability and robust settings than the Sceptre has.What don’t I like about it?❌ Only having two inputs: it should have one DisplayPort and two HDMI at a minimum, instead it only has one of each which is a bit paltry and stingy.❌ Putting the menu joystick on the back of the monitor, you have to fumble blindly for it.❌ There’s a feature to draw a fixed crosshair at the center of the screen, kind of “cheating” for gaming. While nice this feature was not implemented well, in that once you activate it it’s on all the time, even when you’re not playing a game, you’re browsing the web with a crosshair at the center. If you want this eye sore out of the way you have to go back to the menu, navigate through two or so levels to turn it off and repeat when you want to turn it on. The menu joystick shows the same source menu if you toggle it left or right, instead of making both left and right do the same thing they couldn’t reserve one of those for a quick on/off for the crosshair? I know you can probably toggle the virtual crosshair with Samsung’s software but I don’t really want to install that and have it running just for that.If you do get it and you have Windows 11, after you have your new monitor in place and configured properly (the color “mode”), make sure you go to the HDR settings and click the link for the calibration tool to download it through Microsoft Store and use that to make an accurate color profile.Overall very satisfied I chose this monitor and went through with it, a solid 9/10.
