    Great painting at a very reasonable price!

    After eventually buying a pair of mini PCs for business and personal use and using an old 21-inch widescreen LCD monitor, I found that I must be spoiled by my 4K TV because the picture on this one Monitor was just great in my opinion seemed so boring and it didn't support 4K which I enjoyed watching 4K videos etc. I wasn't sure which monitor to choose, but I wanted something a lot more, with 4K support, and it was very reasonably priced.

    Oh boy where do I start.

    It's been a while since I reviewed the Revain, but this monitor is definitely worth my time. I've been staring at computer monitors since the mid '80s and I've never seen anything quite like this Samsung, and I might as well add: Samsung - oh how far you've fallen. In its day the Samsung was pretty reliable and of pretty good quality, I've had a few over the years. This is my first "curved" monitor so I was intrigued and excited, especially after spending hours reading monitor reviews in…

    Great picture, can't get the speaker to work

    This is probably user error as I am a 20 year old girl. However, I cannot get the speakers to work on this monitor. I can tell my computer is trying to push audio through as it says this is what the speakers are putting out. However, I can't get it to work on my computer. I can't find the sound buttons either. Maybe it would have helped if I had searched or found a manual, but I didn't. So in terms of a great monitor, it's amazing. It feels luxurious and is very easy on the eyes. I run it from…

    Great for entertainers/digital artists

    Nobody talked much about working with digital art, so I decided to write a review for this niche. I connect it to my laptop and use it as a dual monitor. Needless to say, I currently use it mainly as my main monitor as the picture quality is great and it suits my eyes perfectly at the table. I use a lot of Adobe software and everything looks incredibly sharp. The color quality is also excellent. Eye protection mode is a godsend for people like me who are often late when working on projects…

    • Limited refresh rate options

    Exactly 31 days after purchase, this monitor has a black vertical bar and is worth nothing. The repair cost more than the nearly $200 I paid for it. A totally dissatisfied and unhappy Revain customer. Electronics warranty must be more than 30 days. The best buy gives you 60 days. Absolutely annoying! EDIT: Revain customer service wins the day and honors the refund even though it was the day after the refund window. I've been waiting to set this up and 3 monitors worked fine but this one didn't.

    Great for text but not ideal for video

    A really good monitor for the price. I have two in the home office. They're great for text, programming, etc. I love the curved shape. This works especially well if you wear varifocals that require you to turn your head to focus. The curved shape seems to reduce eye fatigue compared to a similarly sized flat screen. However, black is not black. The best thing you can do for black is some washed out dark grey. It just doesn't have the deep blacks and fast response of a good gaming or TV/video…

    Very attractive screen and picture.

    I use this product daily for communication and playing cards. It's a good, clear picture with a decent response time. I would give it 5 stars except that the button on the back for controlling the menus and turning off the screen is clunky and difficult to use, especially if you have big fingers. I installed a 10ft HDMI cable and found that the screen does not turn off when I turn off the computer.

    Out of the box it was easy to set up and connect, everything works and the ULTRA CURVED SCREEN offers a 16:9 aspect ratio and displays images in dark tones, vivid colors and sharp details with a high quality picture. The only problem was with Samsung, they didn't want to give me a 3 year warranty. I had to ask the seller of The Minerva Project to contact Samsung to repair and upgrade the 9 month warranty Samsung gave me for the 3 year warranty. I'm still waiting to see if Samsung will keep…

The best are all screens. are still in use today. The screen quality is excellent as I use it in my offices and at home for YouTube and movies. The 24" and 27" 60Hz screens were unbeatable in terms of quality and price. Highly recommended!

    Description is wrong.

    The description said it was a business monitor and it was covered by a 3 year warranty, but when I called Samsung support to report the issue they said it was covered by a 1 year warranty covered and that it's not a business monitor...so they wouldn't fix it.

    The best monitor I've ever had!

    Have you ever sat in front of your computer and realized that your monitor just didn't quite fit and that it was time for an upgrade, but the last few times you've spent very little and gotten some good monitors, but now. Time to spoil yourself? That happened to me. The monitor I was using no longer fit me.

    Let's start by saying I've only had the monitor for a week. This is an upgrade from a 23 inch Asus monitor from 6 years ago. I use it with an ABS computer equipped with an AMD Ryzen 5 2600 hexa-core processor clocked at 3.40 GHz and 16 GB of RAM. It has an NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1660 graphics card adapter. The display is crystal clear and is a massive improvement over the 23-inch Asus, and I love the curved screen. The image quality is excellent and the text is very legible. All in all a great…

    My first curved screen

    I work from home as a software engineer, so I sit in front of screens most of the day. I bought 3 pieces, two for me and one for my wife. I replaced two HP 24" flat screens with these bad boys. These were my first curved screens and I was a little concerned I wouldn't like the curved effect (I found it a bit useless) but I couldn't be happy. "The brightness and clarity of these screens is also superior to my previous screens. I played around with the brightness, sharpness and contrast but ended

    I like the curved monitor, no glare, looks very beautiful! But two things could be a lot better: 1) The rear bracket that attaches the base doesn't come off. Now it's a random piece of plastic dangling from the bottom of the monitor's arm, which doesn't make any sense. If it is compatible with the adjustable bracket, why can't the desktop base plastic bracket be removed? Just make it detachable with screws, latches or whatever! 2) It scratches very easily.

    I work in a hospital system and we need to use multiple screens even when working from home. This wide curved screen made it much easier to view the EMR screen wide enough for me to see all the screens I need to schedule voice (interpretation) services. This monitor definitely helped because I have a work laptop and cannot work from the laptop screen. I highly recommend this monitor. It's affordable, works great and looks great.

    The only problematic monitor, set too high for my computer desk

    The monitor works great. It's even better now that I had to buy another stand from Revain so I could adjust the height of my monitor. The stand that came with the monitor had no height or tilt adjustment. But the solution was found when we went back to Revain, they had another stand that was compatible with this monitor and it worked. For the first few days of using my new monitor (before I got a new stand) I felt like my neck was about to snap. The new stand is in operation.
