Half Screen White is the best in my rating

Received the monitor today and half the screen doesn't work, called Samsung and they were upset that it was defective and sent it back for a replacement.

I bought it for my PS5 and I still love it

Awarded PS5 I have been looking for several monitors and saw this one for a good price while it works so well and has an eye care function to protect your eyes from pain at night. My eyes don't feel strained when playing, LOVE IT.

Great monitor, just the right size

Absolutely amazing I went from 144hz to 240hz and let me just say that anyone who says you can't tell the difference between 144hz and 240hz is just trying to justify not spending the extra money . I immediately noticed a difference in my first game, I can definitely recommend it

It's better than I thought.

The screen looks great, there are no issues with the graphics or any settings that you can tweak to get the best results. The only reason it got 4 stars is because one of the 2 screens isn't tilted backwards.

Beautiful graphics and perfect for gaming

This monitor is everything you ever wanted. It's big but not overwhelming, it delivers beautiful graphics with games like Fortnite, COD and more, and was a great addition to my 240+ fps rig. Would highly recommend it to any gamer, especially if like me you can get it at a special price! (Only $249!)

I strongly DO NOT recommend this monitor if you intend to use it for more than a few months. Which is what I wanted to do in my case. Almost immediately after the warranty expired, I started having very strange problems with the screen. The "features" that come with it don't outweigh the sheer number of problems this monitor has. First, a large black dot started growing in the middle of my screen when the picture was dark. It was imperceptible at first, but soon became completely unavoidable…

Not best impressed in my rating

I needed a new monitor and had ASUS. It was incredibly good. I received this one and I could tell by the packaging that I wasn't going to like it. There's no height or tilt adjustment, it sits about 3 inches from the table and tilts forward. Again, you can't customize it. The picture quality is not very good. again my old monitor showed an unbelievable picture. As a reminder, the only reason I haven't ordered another ASUS is because it's SOLD OUT. I'm sure for the price of this monitor (which I

Works with AMD FreeSync.

This monitor is marked/sold for Nvidia G-Sync but took a chance and ordered tests with my Radeon Vega 56; works fine with DisplayPort 240Hz Adaptive Sync.

Great monitor! good for me

Great monitor. Great quality, small bezels and overall great to play with. I play a lot of DayZ and now it's much easier for me to spot people in the trees than before. This monitor lets you see pixel movement from a distance. It is great! I recommend this monitor to anyone who wants to improve their gaming experience!

Great but didn't last 72 hours.

I used the monitor for about 2 days and it was great until it decided to go black and then these lines appeared on the screen.

Great idea, questionable execution.

I initially bought mine from Micro Center, not Revain, but felt it was time to share my knowledge. Some engineering went into this panel, but form prevailed over function for two reasons. First, while the front of the panel is identical to the 144Hz panel, same frame and all, the rear has had a facelift. and this facelift poses a major problem for anyone using a standard VESA mount with two sizes of 100mm and 75mm slot (commonly found on a monitor swing arm). This mount will not fit the back of

I wish I had never bought this.

I never write reviews but after returning one of these monitors and living with a second one for several months I can safely say this is rubbish. Constantly stuck and dead pixels all over the monitor. When you watch some movies and shows online it seems like there is a star field in the background. I bought this monitor because it was a cheap G-Sync curved display. I got what I paid for. Don't repeat my mistake. Pay a little more and get a better rated monitor.

Great monitor, lacks simple mounting options.

This is a great monitor, especially if you don't plan on mounting one. The problem lies in the curved design of the back panel and how close the VESA holes are to the edge of the curve. I have yet to find a mounting plate small enough for the two different desktop mounts that this monitor supports. Someone else recommends an adapter that essentially wraps around the edge of the monitor but defeats the purpose of a nearly borderless screen.

This is a regular monitor.

It was an amazing monitor but unfortunately mine broke for no reason, I've never dropped it or picked it up the wrong way. It's just that my monitor started flickering when I suddenly tried to turn it off by blowing out the ports, but to no avail.

Doesn't work: my review

It was a birthday gift for my 14 year old son, it was 3 weeks in the box and when we tried it on a new MSI laptop it worked intermittently and had a black screen many times. Super disappointing. It has now been 3 days since the police returned and we feel stuck with a monitor that has been used for 4 hours and is unusable.

For the budget if you are not very picky this is a good monitor.

Really good monitor for the price, the stand could be better. It's not the brightest, but with a little tweaking I was able to make it look pretty good. I'm currently using it for gaming so I don't know about movies or anything.
