Everything is fine except for the shaking

Excellent monitor in all respects except the monitor shakes. In general, the stand is solid, but the monitor wobbles where the stand is attached. This happens when I type fast or a little hard. I had to put a small object between the bottom of the monitor and the table to keep it stable.

it's pretty good for me

For a mid-level gamer like me, this monitor is perfect. MMO role-playing games are very immersive thanks to the ultra-wide screen. I went from 60 to 100Hz and found the refresh rate much better and well worth the $550 spent.

Do not buy - terrible picture, worst customer service

DO NOT buy this monitor. I have a Surface Pro with Windows. Samsung markets this monitor with a resolution of 3440 x 1440; However, it doesn't run above 1920x1080 on my Surface Pro. This creates a distorted/stretched image that's painful on the eyes if you try to use it for more than a few minutes. I spent hours on the phone with my company's IT department (who are professional computer technicians) AND Samsung tech support and none of them were able to solve the problem. Also, I have a Dell…

  • Low refresh rate: When the monitor refresh rate is too low, motion may appear blurry or slow.

Came with a vertical strip of dead pixels

The monitor looked good and showed promise with USB-C, but when I set it up I was disappointed that the monitor to the right of the monitor had dead pixels (top to bottom, vertical line). This is an obvious quality control error, never buy a Samsung.

Great screen but pixel dead zone

Awesome looking screen, easy to set up and love that you can have two inputs on screen at once. However, the screen had a dead pixel area at the top of the screen as well as a long horizontal bar, so I returned it and bought a different product.

Nice screen but many problems

PROS Top notch picture quality, aesthetically smooth MINUS Good luck connecting everything I tried three different sets of speakers, the audio jack produces background noise so loud it's not worth using speakers, you can connect a Chromecast but you need speakers hear nothing and that brings us back to the previous noise problem. All I wanted to do was stream from my laptop to this screen and watch movies, TV, etc., but that seems beyond Samsung's capabilities. EXTREMELY DISAPPOINTED

Better than you think

I bought this monitor on a budget. I needed an ultra-wide screen with at least a 100Hz refresh rate so I could play on it while I worked. The monitor did not disappoint me. Picture in picture works as advertised and is very beautiful. I use it for programming and other work while maintaining PS4. There is an option to adjust black levels in the menu, as well as eye care, game mode response, etc. The USB works as advertised. I use it to charge my Switch and my laptop. You can play games…

Image quality is excellent for most people unless you are a professional photo or video editor. Quality is ok but the first one I ordered had a loose bezel which caused the backlight to slide down the sides. Came back, the second is fine. I bought it for the USB-C capability, which also charges your MacBook.

USB-C incompatibility with MacBook Pro

Bought on purpose because this model delivers 65W of power for USB-C when the display is on. USB-C to USB-C with the included cable worked for a while and then stopped working altogether. Tested on MacBook Pro 2019 and MacBook Pro 2018 Catalina. 2 days after the return period has expired, I can no longer use this display.

The beautiful display is the best in my rating

Bought for my wife to swap out two displays. She was skeptical at first, but now she loves it. Looks great and works well with a Dell laptop. HDMI over USB-C is recommended for connection. If it is not properly connected, it will flash on and off.

Excellent, great and great.

I just received this product today and it was delivered on time. Colors are great, 100Hz with my laptop is great. Monitor with five instruments.

GET YOUR MONEY BACK

I bought this and it came with dead pixels. It wasn't a big deal so I sent it back and got a new one. And then the new one had a shadow all over the left side of the screen.

Good but not outstanding monitor

I've had this monitor for over a year now and I definitely don't regret the purchase. Despite all the advantages of this monitor, however, it has some significant disadvantages. PROS: Ultra wide aspect ratio - for me it was a complete game changer. Especially when combined with Windows 10's border-snapping abilities, it's much easier to multitask across multiple windows than with a dual-screen setup. 100Hz Refresh Rate - I had a previous 60Hz version of this monitor and this change is…

Disappointingly good for me

I ordered this monitor a few months ago and it looks like a great monitor to me. I was really excited because I've never owned a 34" curved monitor before and was looking forward to a review on my Tech Review channel. Things went well for a while, but then the problems started. This device offers USB-C port, HDMI, USB3.0 and some others. I use a lot of these ports, which I should be able to do. Now out of nowhere my monitor is not working. It flashes and lights up. It doesn't charge my laptop…

I use the wide display for my music courses

Expensive but great display for a 72 year old man whose eyes are very slow to focus. I can read the whole song at once. 34 Inches.
