Good monitor in my review.

I have two monitors on my desk and I love that the slightly curved Samsung allows me to move in my chair at my desk and see it from every angle. I just bought one for my daughter for Christmas. Great monitor for the price.

good product just very bad quality

The monitor is fine for playing with graphics, but when I open somewhere Google/Facebook/Discord, a text bar appears with red and black lines appearing on it. Obviously I didn't expect this from a $150 monitor when my monitor is $75. It's 8 years old and still works fine. It would suck if it wasn't my second monitor

  • The 27-inch curved screen isn't limitless. Otherwise he's great.

Not adjustable and without speakers

I gave this 4 stars because it is not adjustable and tilts down slightly. I bought a monitor stand and that fixed the problems. Immediately we notice that there are no speakers. I would like to buy one with speakers as my laptop speakers aren't very loud but for those who don't need speakers this is a great screen. i love the curve I don't think I can go back to flat screen.

Great screen, terrible stand

The screen is great when I have the brightness/contrast/sharpness adjusted to my liking. The only problem I encountered is the stand; I couldn't fully connect the two pieces (one with the screen, the other with the stand) and couldn't screw them down where I was told. It stands so well but when I pick it up or pick it up it immediately comes off. I tried to use all my strength, but it just wouldn't come. Huge downside.

HOME OFFICE MONITOR

I bought this monitor because I had to work from home. It was better than the average monitor without realizing that you can use it for gaming and video. The picture quality is good and I may have to buy another one as I need an extra monitor.

buzzing from the monitor

The monitor works great as expected. However, the monitor makes a buzzing noise just a month after use. The noise gets louder or quieter depending on the colors displayed on the screen. It's not loud enough to be unusable, but definitely annoying. I bought the same monitor a few years ago and it still works great and makes no noise. It must have been in a bad situation this time.

Purpose of the game: my review

I bought this for my friend's toy wagon when Modern War came out recently and he loves it. He has 2 now and the picture is clear and bright. The setting makes everything easy to adjust and I was happy my package arrived undamaged.

Unreliable. Replaced 3. 1 and now you are powerless.

There are 3. Returned/replaced 1 already for the pink line appearing on the left side of the screen and 1 just lost power.

cheating photo image

Two things to note. As stated in the subject line, the Samsung photo shows a curved building. This image was specifically chosen to reinforce the PERCEPTION that the "deep" curve of Monitor 27 is more dramatic. While unpacking. it is not. Second, the base is rather functionless. You simply screw 2 basic components together. The downside to this simplicity is that you can't tilt the screen up/down to match your eye level when you're at your desk. They could at least give us the ability to tilt…

Not adjustable in height and inclination

I should have reported purchase reviews earlier, but in the end I'll keep the monitor to myself. I wish it could be tilt and height adjustable.

Makes work a lot easier

I use this monitor with my 13" laptop for work. I don't see any pros or cons of a curved screen for office use, but I think it's designed for gaming. Color and clarity are excellent. I ordered this from Revain recommended "buy these together" cables, but one came with the monitor. I thought maybe it's like an oven and you need to buy a cable separately. No. The first day I connected it I had a few lines of error flashing horizontally across the screen and I thought I had to send it back. I…

Cool for work! in my view

I can finally see all my work on this monitor. Incredibly sharp and clear; good sound; The curve offers a unique look - it has a "theater" feel to it. I'm thinking of a monitor stand as the base isn't adjustable, it's tilted down and I can't tilt the screen. This is a user preference, there is nothing wrong with this monitor!
