    Good home monitor with some drawbacks

    All in all a good monitor for home use. There are better ones, but the price is worth considering. I bought it because I wanted to view larger text files - so far it's doing its job well. Text is crisp and the larger size makes it easier for me to read and multitask at the same time. Perhaps a similar arrangement could be achieved with two smaller monitors, as in my office, but I don't like split screens. My old monitor was 27 inches. This also worked well for many years, but as my eyes changed

    Incorrect selection of the user interface on the monitor

    First off, this is an incredible monitor when it comes to gaming. It blows my mind with picture quality, color, brightness and game environments that are much more realistic with depth and detail. Unfortunately, Samsung has made terrible choices when it comes to letting the person change the settings or the source used with the monitor. There are no buttons to turn on the monitor or switch the source port the monitor uses to access connected devices. There is only one button (joystick) you need

    Where do I even start?

    I bought it to replace my current 32 inch Samsung monitor with a UHD monitor. The first problem arose after replacing monitors with my existing DisplayPort cable. The computer did not start. I don't have a graphics card." Indeed, the monitor managed to hang up the Nvidia card. I switched to the HDMI cable that came with it, and after unplugging the computer for a while, it booted up. I was streaming HD content and that first thing I noticed was a hiss in the speakers, which wasn't there before…

    Good enough in my rating.

    It's not the best monitor I've ever bought, but it's good enough to be my second. Since I only use it as a second monitor, I can't say if it's suitable for gaming. At the time of purchase, it cost $300. Pros: 1. Good enough to be a secondary monitor.2. Works with the Revain wall mount for 27" monitors even if it is a 32" monitor.3. Narrow HDMI connectors. Cons: 1. It has a free DisplayPort connector. If you use this monitor, you NEED a DisplayPort cable that snaps in or just slides out. This…

    Good monitor with one caveat.

    The monitor is large, bright, the color reproduction is correct. As shown in the attached image, the monitor (left) looks "bumpy" against a clean background - black, white, or any other color. I slightly reduced the brightness of the image to increase the effect. It's not that strong in real life, but it's easy to see, especially from an angle. Since we are not working with pure backgrounds, the problem is not that important.

    Excellent monitor in my review

    The display is pretty sharp! I don't want to go back to my small monitor after getting used to it. One downside is that the refresh rate is a bit slow. With such a large screen, it's easy to feel resistance when moving the mouse pointer. But it may not be suitable for gaming!

    Excellent quality, but there are problems with Linux

    I mainly use this to work over KVM and on the Mac. Works great on Mac but when I switch to Linux there is green noise in dark colors. For the amount I spent and the main use case, this monitor represents good value for money. I don't think it's a gaming monitor, haven't tried it, but the refresh rate is low. For a programming job, that's great.

    Great picture but no speaker?

    Great video. Removing the EZ Pack. EZ setting; among other things, there is no sound. I am legally blind so use the monitor in dark mode. 4k and the most beautiful black I've ever seen come together in an image that does the job even better. It's amazing and there are only two negatives. The convenience of a single joystick controller is dulled because the interface screen it controls is a little picture-in-picture in the bottom corner. I didn't measure but maybe 2.5 x 2.5 inches. It's not…

    Beautiful bare bone plate

    It's a good monitor, but just that and bare bones. I use it when I'm working on my laptop from home and was a bit surprised that it doesn't even have the most basic of speakers. And seriously. There is no height adjustment with only tilt. I was a bit surprised by the lack of USB-C, only 2x HDMI, 1 DP and a headphone jack. For the price, size, and image quality, I believe it meets my needs as an upgrade for working at home. BUT what annoys me is the lack of a product description that shouldn't…

    Nothing for graphic designers

    Before I start this review I just want everyone to know that I'm not a fan of monitors. I have no idea about gamma and such. I only know what is right and what is wrong. I've been trying to sneak around with a budget monitor to connect to my Mac Mini which I use for graphic design and illustration. I've had an iMac for over 15 years, so I was used to high quality screens, but I didn't realize HOW spoiled I was. After seeing this Samsung monitor on several "best budget monitors for graphic…

    Good monitor if the HDMI cable is not enough

    When I first started using this monitor I tried multiple connections to connect to my Macbook Pro:1. Lightning Bolt elgato Hub -> Displayport output with Displayport-to-DVI->DVI-to-HDMI2 adapter. Lightning Dongle with HDMI -> Including HDMI3 cable. elgato Lightning Hub -> DisplayPort cable. Option 1 was very unreliable when the connection dropped, and I also saw twinkling stars (single pixels flashing white randomly) in the image when it worked. Option 2 was more reliable but I…

    Likes it like a dual monitor

    Constantly in Zoom meetings, screen sharing Excel documents. This makes it feel like I have Excel open initially and don't see a tiny zoom or collection of commands. It's also the perfect size to have email/Slack/Commands on one side of the screen and my work on the other. Recommended for those who need to get more work done than the tiny laptop screen can handle.

    Good with a big flaw

    It's not in the same league as the Dell Ultrasharp series, but for the price, it's great value. The picture is good, nothing more. Images are fine, text is perfectly crisp at settings of 100, 125 and 150. I use this primarily for work, primarily with MS Office products, the two screens fit side by side with ease. If you have a keen eye and can get the text up to 100, you can put 4 full windows with enough content for each to work. Build quality is great, no one will be impressed but that's to…

Image quality in the 709's full-range mode is mediocre at best, with continued whitewashing. playing a role in giving this device bad reviews.

    Great monitor for the price. I bought two for dual installation. Incredible desktop workspace. I am a software developer and the increase in performance is measurable. The only reason I give it 4 stars is the odd branded power adapter - a big box with a plug on the end with a thin (and not long for my needs) code with a special plug that plugs into the back of the monitor. .
