The stand sags. the picture is great

The monitor itself is fine, but when you adjust the viewing angle or position, the screen falls or sags after a few seconds. I had to order a swing arm mount to mitigate the problem. It's also worth noting that the legs of the stand protrude far from the wall into the mouse's workspace. The articulation of the arm should solve both of these problems.

I liked it so much that I bought a second one.

I'm a techie and work on two monitors with lots of open windows. I like the extra space this monitor gives me over my previous FHD (1920 x 1080) monitors. I bought a second one as the first one works so well.

My first monitor I own is a 5+ for the price. I want 2 displays and each additional one has a real white problem. In all settings, this follows the monitor when changing sources. The only difference is the insert

  • Color balancing: If the colors on the display are not precisely calibrated, the display can appear washed out or too bright.

The monitor is exactly as advertised and of course Samsung so the quality is top notch. This is my first curved screen and it's incredibly engaging. I personally love it. As a casual gamer, this screen was perfect for my needs. To take full advantage of the 144Hz refresh rate, you need DisplayPort 1.4+ or HDMI 2.0+. If you have an older version of HDMI/DP (like mine) you will need to adjust it by setting the refresh rate in the monitor settings. The 32-inch screen is a bit big for 1440p, so the

Fantastic step up. to my rating.

Some people have complained about the high degree or arc of the curve. At first it seemed extreme, but after a few days I got completely used to it. The light doesn't hit the dark screen, the response is good for the fast paced MMORPG I'm playing. And actually the curve is not that extreme. Breathtaking! The colors suit me. Upgrading an old 27" flat screen. One thing I had to get used to is having to tilt my head left and right to see what's happening on the sides. Lol. I like it, good price, I

This monitor is great. Buy it. don't doubt yourself One of the view nodes said I'm buying a flat screen, but did I receive a curved one? It doesn't matter though, it's great. Buy it. buy now

  • Motion Blur: If the resolution is set too low, the display may appear blurry or pixelated.

The monitor has come down in price and is now one of the best budget options for gaming and ultra-wide. The biggest issue with this monitor is image blur. In non-competitive games, this is not a problem at all. You'll only notice it if you look. However, when it comes to FPS or other more competitive games, it will severely affect your performance. I don't appreciate the aesthetics, particularly the fact that the front cutouts are just fake speakers. At least there are no red accents here, so…

Ultra curved screen

There were no problems with this. I wasn't sure if I would like the curved screen when I bought it, but I play a lot of FPS games on Xbox and I love it.

Great monitor, not badly bent

This is my first curved monitor. I was afraid it would be too strange for me, but I was wrong. It has a great feel and look. Colors are good, black levels are nice and dark. I have 5 other monitors for my sons and myself and this one looks the best by far. The 144Hz refresh rate works great, the Nvidia HDR looks good, although I turned it off because it looked too polished.

The perfect 1440p gaming monitor!

Bought this monitor to replace my old Acer 3D monitor. The 3D feature on the monitor should tell you how long it has been since I bought the monitor. So I expect a good longitude from this monitor. I've only had it 4 days so I'll leave that part for now. I now consider myself a hardcore gamer as I spend 60-90 hours a week gaming. Going to 1440p was great, games look a lot better but I quickly found that my 1070 couldn't play all my games on ultra settings, but visually it still looks amazing. I

Great for work and movies

You know, if you're watching a movie and the movie has a black bar at the top and it doesn't, say goodbye to that black bar (as long as the movie is legal). On the other hand, regular YouTube videos add black bars on every side. And when it comes to work, it's just an extra workspace for each application.

Great screen, needs a better stand

Image quality is excellent for the size and price. The included stand is rubbish, no height or rotation adjustment which is what I expected at this price point. I recommend buying a VESA mount for it. Dynamic contrast can be annoying because it dims the screen to zero when the background is black (like when using Putty or the command line) or when there is no screen input. Overall happy with it.

Curved screen solved

I bought this screen less than a year ago. In recent months, the top of the screen has lagged behind the bezel itself, likely due to its curvature and poor quality. Don't buy this.

Great monitor! - my new rating

Got this thing to try out Elden Ring at 144hz, pushed aside my old 4k 60hz monitor for this. It's beautiful, to be honest the curve seemed a bit strange to me for a while, but eventually my eyes got used to it. Very sharp, color and contrast are amazing.

Great entry-level 144Hz 1440p monitor

For context, I'm using an ASUS VG248Q and this monitor is an upgrade in (almost) every way. In short, compared to other 27-inch 1440p 144Hz monitors, this monitor is a great solution for those who want to upgrade to a larger or higher resolution monitor but can't afford a more expensive one. Pros: + Build quality is A+, the finish doesn't feel cheap + Anti-glare coating on the front does a good job of eliminating glare + Colors look pretty accurate and have some brightness without feeling…
