SAMSUNG Ultrawide Adjustable LS49A950UINXZA Charcoal 5120X1440P HDR USB Hub Ultrawide Screen Adaptive Sync ‎S95UA Review

As a monitor, this display is pretty good. As a complete package designed to do all the things it claims to do, it failed. Pros: 1. Size - it's obvious why you chose this monitor2. Picture quality - for this type of panel the picture looked great3. Easy Installation - For its size, this monitor was very easy to assemble and set up. Cons: 1. USB-C powered - it sounded great but it didn't work. Whenever my Mac went to sleep, the power would turn off, wake up after 30 seconds, stop, and continue…

This monitor is great! On March 1st, my programming team was sent home because of Covid, a few weeks before the rest of the big company was sent home. As a developer, I use a lot of screen real estate. In the office I had 3 2 inch monitors and a laptop screen. I used them all and figured out the bevels that separate the screens. At home I had 23" and 24" monitors on my desk. So in March I put a square card table to the left of my home table. I installed one of the 22 inch monitors and opened up

If you connect this monitor to a computer with a cable, you will probably love this monitor. The picture is decent and the screen size for productivity is second to none. But if you plan on switching between two computers and/or using the split screen/PBP feature, do yourself a favor and stay away. The input select controls on this monitor will drive you insane at times. If you keep switching the input to automatic mode, it will intermittently get stuck on a blank screen with no indication of…

I've been looking for a good performance monitor in dual QHD format for a long time. I bought it on Prime Day because the specs looked pretty good, but I was a little hesitant because there was only 1 Revain review at the time and it was about the lack of FreeSync support, which didn't apply to my main productivity use case. So I dared. When it arrived I spent all day testing it for various tests. Pros: * Monitor was packaged well. * Screen arrived intact with no dead pixels. It's easy to have…

I wanted a cool new 49 inch curved monitor after seeing it in an office I visited. I bought this particular model for a number of reasons - mainly the ability of KVM and PIP to run 2 computers on the same screen and get rid of the dual monitor setup I previously had. There are no instructions included with the kit. This is a business class monitor, not a commercial one. So you can't get support from Samsung's commercial side and the support from the business side is terrible. There is no user…

I bought this monitor to replace 2 QHD gaming monitors because I now work from home and wanted to use the same monitor and keyboard/mouse for both work and personal use. I've tried several KVMs but their reliability has been terrible. I found this monitor and thought it would be a great replacement for my use case, and it was! KVM function works great, picture quality is very good (although not better than IPS), 120Hz support, reliability when switching between my work and home system is top…

I got this device for less than $1,000 pre-tax during Prime Day. Not a bad monitor for the price compared to others of the same size. I like the ability to use multiple inputs at the same time and the built in KVM although I haven't used it yet. One problem I've found is that when this monitor is plugged in, the system won't put it to sleep when it's idle. The screen flickers for a few seconds, but then it is recognized again and the screen turns back on. This means I have to manually turn off…

I bought this mainly for stock trading because it's very useful to be able to actively follow multiple securities when I'm just looking for an entry or exit point for them. Although I don't do much intraday trading, it's also very useful when I need it. The thing definitely fits. I can track many other stocks and actually have some charts on it that I couldn't do from my laptop alone, except maybe 3 or 4 at a time. I also enjoy watching videos and surfing the internet. When I turn on my laptop…

This monitor really changes the way you work. This replaces two 27" monitors side by side and makes a huge difference. First, when coding, you can place 3 (sometimes 4) windows side by side. Second, when writing queries (Coginiti Pro or dBeaver), you can distribute the application across the entire monitor, so that With lots of query tabs OR lots of result columns you don't have to scroll horizontally to see everything ) and it was too flat as the curve was 3800r The curve on this monitor is…

I like this monitor dr. I use it with my personal laptop and my work laptop at the same time. Two cons: #1) There is no easy way to reverse the original output. That means if Laptop 1 is shown on the left and Laptop 2 is on the right, there is no easy way to toggle this. I have to turn PIP/PBP off, switch sources and turn it back on. #2) The PIP/PBP setting doesn't allow displaying 1/3, 2/3 for both my laptops. It's either shared equally, or the second monitor is displayed as…

Note that this monitor only supports 120Hz when connected via DP. I also don't see an option for Freesync when connected via USB-C. Another issue is that there is no warranty information in the official product listing on Samsung website. Also, the USB (PC) port only works with Windows computers, not MacOS. EDIT: I've seen other reviews mention the lack of speed over a LAN connection and I can confirm this is correct. For reference, if I connect LAN to computer and then use USB C to MacBook Air

I needed a better work from home solution. I work in an environment where I connect the remote desktop to my work computer via a laptop. I typically use my MacBook Pro for email, calendaring, appointment zoom, and video editing. This monitor connects to both my PC and MacBook Pro via USB-C. I love being able to connect with just one cable, just make sure you get the right type. Not all USB-C cables carry video, so it was difficult to route the cables in the way I needed for a cleaner…

Above all. I mainly use this monitor for work, but sometimes I also play games. With that in mind, I wanted to be able to connect my laptop (Razer Blade 15) with a single USB-C cable so all my peripherals match my home and work office (same mouse, keyboard, monitor, etc.). For this I bought 2 in total including docking stations that were compatible with my computer. For a long time I could not find out why the monitor did not work well with it. The screen sometimes went black/silent as if the…

I am very happy with this purchase. I bought this with the intention of using the built in KVM to easily switch between my work laptop and home computer and it really hits the mark. The size of the monitor makes coding and working with multiple documents much easier. This makes my work much more productive. You can use software like DisplayFusion to split the screen into different virtual monitors. Once you've done that, it will be much easier for you to move windows around and place them where

When I first saw an ultra-wide curved monitor in a large store, I knew I would have one one day. I was lucky enough to get a 27 inch curved monitor from Samsung over Christmas last year. Quality and beauty of the monitor. I have owned and used a 27 inch monitor with pride since I received it. However, it has also reignited my desire for an ultra-wide 49" monitor. As an online teacher, the amount of physical desktop space as well as monitor real estate is paramount. This 49" ultra-wide monitor…

Looks good, no major issues/dead pixels etc. Small but noticeable halos. The curve seems reasonable for a typical desktop setup. A USB hub is probably not worth it. I had my laptop to use the power supply but the "CHARGING" notification keeps flickering. It's not too power hungry either, with a maximum output of 70W, and the monitor is rated for a power output of 90W. If I can get it to work, a USB hub is a nice saving over a decent hub, albeit one less cable. This may be an issue related to my

I was very happy to have this in my home office. Unfortunately the display was cracked. Had to take it to UPS as UPS pickup from Revain didn't go through even after talking to 3 staff. Very disappointed with the support.

I use this for work and can open and view multiple windows at the same time. That's better than two monitors because I can work on a large spreadsheet without having monitor edges in the middle blocking columns. Tip: Make sure you have the right cable and don't use an adapter to connect. This led to many problems. Once I got the right cable to connect my monitor to my processor, related problems were solved.
