Good for playing - my new test report

We used USB C and HDMI to connect the MacBook Pro and PlayStation. The monitor allows us to switch between devices or even display them side by side in picture-in-picture mode.

yes i bought a new one

I figured I could just install two displays and this monitor seems perfect for my needs. I've had my current one for years and it works like new.

I love this monitor!

I am very happy with this monitor! It's very nice! Now this monitor has become a great assistant for me in programming and reading diplomas! Perhaps the only downside is that although the USB Type-C in this monitor can charge my 2018 15" MacBook Pro, 45W isn't enough for my laptop, especially when I'm running some power-hungry apps. But that does my love for this monitor no abort!

Excellent image quality for remote use.

I use my computer almost exclusively for remote work via VPN with my company's server. I tried several different monitors before I found this one, which displays all Word and PDF documents as clearly as if they were on my own desktop.

Both monitors failed within six months

Bought two of these Samsung SH850 series 27 inch QHD 2560 x 1440 desktop monitors for business and both died less than six months later. Zero withdrawal symptoms. On the first one I left the room for coffee, it worked fine and came back and it was dead (no power or something). The second monitor went out the same way. Note that the listing states a three-year warranty and Samsung informed me that the warranty is only for one year.

GREAT FOR EXTERNAL SECONDS GAUGES.

This monitor is VERY basic compared to other monitors. I bought it as a second display for my Imac. All reviews of poor image quality are exaggerated. the quality is ok. I installed it next to my 5k retina imac and it looks great. A big plus is the presence of a rotating stand. Has a USB-C variant so I needed 1 small cable to connect it to my Mac. SATISFIED CUSTOMER 😁

The monitor went black and did not return!

After 14 months, the monitor just showed nothing, just black. The power light is on, the computer recognizes it, but nothing appears on the screen. Tried different cables, different computers, different ports, it's just a $400 black screen, oh.

Monitor died within 90 days

We bought it for our college student. He died within 90 days. The seller was in no hurry to reply and said that this was not his problem as it had been 30 days since the purchase. The seller and Revain were unaware of the 3 year warranty advertised by the seller. I had to go straight to Samsung to fix it. It took us weeks to get a response from Samsung and we're still trying to get a working monitor from them (2 months now). I will never buy from this seller again. Next time I would go straight

A good monitor and a flaw in aesthetics.

It will seem like a trifle...why buy a white monitor only to get black cables? The back looks shabby and my desk looks out into the room. Not impressed with the design. The picture is good.

The display mechanism does not work well

This is the worst monitor I have ever used. The screen hasn't appeared on power up since we bought it 6 months ago. Works intermittently. I was too

A good monitor needs better manufacturing quality control

As with other reviewers, the back of the monitor came completely detached and had to be snapped back into place. Happened to two units shipped from different locations. The processing quality leaves a lot to be desired. Pros: Stunning picture/brightness. USB-c connection. The ability to send two displays over one USB-c cable and then translate it to Displayport for the second display. (That's cool, and I don't see it clearly spelled out anywhere.) Cons: Cheap plastic case, bulky "joystick" on…

Terrible USB-C functionality

As with many other reviews, I can't seem to get the USB-C feature to work properly. Eventually I got so fed up with it that I switched to HDMI. It works but defeats the reason I bought this monitor in the first place. The monitor works differently. The picture is generally good, but the text is very grainy. I would have returned it if I hadn't passed the return date. If you need a USB-C monitor, look elsewhere.

Bang for your dollar.

I cannot praise this monitor more highly. I don't think there is a better monitor for the price. As a web developer, I've been in love with him for about 2 weeks.

Amazing rotation/mount, picture quality is ok

The monitor looks amazing and has a great mount that allows you to rotate the screen to any orientation, including portrait. Picture quality is pretty good, but not the best. So if this is your number one criterion, keep looking.

Long term performance is terrible.

Bought 2 of these for work at home and have been very happy with them for a few months. I had to send both in for repair as they just stopped working. Sent the first one back a second time as it didn't leave a submenu or link to the computer. While he was gone, the second stopped working in the same way. Sent it back and they wanted to charge me for the repair as the corner broke off in transit. Samsung agreed to fix it without charging me but I'm still waiting to return it and now the first…
