After finally purchasing a couple MiniPC’s for both business and personal use, and using an old LCD 21″ Wide Screen Monitor I had, I was finding that I must be spoiled by my 4K TV because the picture on that monitor which I thought was wonderful, just seemed so dull and it did not support 4K which I have come to love to watch 4K videos etc.
I wasn’t really sure what monitor to get, but I wanted something much larger, supported 4K, and that was at a very reasonable price. I did a lot of searching Amazon’s product lists for monitors, and I came across this monitor, and I noticed that it was a curved screen. While I have never owned a curved screen anything, I had seen them at the local electronics store and was darn impressed. So I was very curious about this monitor because it had all the specs I was looking for, at least 27″, Wide Screen, Support for 4K, Native Resolution of 1920 x 1080, LED, and had a curved screen. When I also noticed that it was a Samsung, I was pretty excited to learn more because I have always had very good luck with Samsung products and in fact, I have only had one Samsung product ever fail, and that was a mobile phone that should have stopped working years ago with what It went through.
Not knowing much about monitors these days, I started reading the reviews that were written on this monitor and I asked the community a couple questions. The answers I got back to my questions sealed the deal for me. Everyone who responded had nothing but great things to say about this monitor and provided me in info I needed. So I decided to go for it.
When it got here, unfortunately the first one had a broken screen. It appeared that it was packaged that way since the packaging was factory sealed but the packing was broken on the inside. Needless to say I returned it but Amazon really stepped up to the plate and sent me a replacement next day, so I was only delayed by 1 day getting to use it. Because the first monitor came with a broken screen, I am going to assume that the screen may be a bit on the frgile side as my old monitor has been dropped, and the LCD screen never had any issues, I don’t know jf the screens on LED monitors are more easily broken, or If this was something that someone really dropped hard before packaging, for this reason I gave the durability 4 stars)
Setup was a breeze! Just had to put 1 screw to put the base stand together, and that was it. The stand is about the only thing I really don’t like because the base that sits on the desk is an upside down chevron shape, which sticks out in front of the monitor a few inches. This makes putting it on a small desk where your keyboard would be in front of it a bit of a pain because the keyboard has to be pulled closer to me and just gets in the way to me. I managed to get around that by putting the monitor up on a little shelf I made out of a box and an old Laptop lap desk that I had. It perfectly raises the monitor by about 4-5 inches, and let’s me push the keyboard further back to where I now have more room on my desk. (Images added to show the base and how I worked around the chevron styled base to give me more room).
The monitor has one HDMI port and one Display Port. Now I am not familiar with the Display Port, but all my devices are HDMI, so plugging in a PC is simple. In fact, I have 3 MiniPC’s that I need to connect to this monitor so I bought a 5 port HDMI switch. This allows me to easily switch between each MiniPC with just a click of a button.
The picture on this monitor is absolutely phenomenal! Once I plugged in the HDMI plug, turned on the monitor, it automatically scanned for the signal which it found right away and WOW! What a gorgeous picture. The colors are very bright and vibrant. The dynamics between the Black and White colors are stunning and the color definition is very vivid. For never using a curved screen before on a computer monitor, I am very impressed. It almost immerses you in to the picture and almost gives it a extra dimensional view, almost 3D in nature… The thing I worried most about with a curved screen was is there going to be any distortion with a curved screen and I am happy to say. “Absolutely Not!”. The images looks perfectly flat, but because of the curve, it pulls the outer edges our of your peripheral vision and closer to your focused view when looking straight forward.
Learning how to use the toggle button on the back for adjusting the settings van take a bit of getting used to, however, at this point, I haven’t really needed to use any of the options other then Sleep and Shut Down as the defaults seem to be perfect for my setup.
Unfortunately this monitor does not have built in speakers however, if you have speakers connected to you computer or use a set of Bluetooth Speakers you will be just fine.
Overall my impression of this monitor is fantastic! The picture quality is stunning, and the size with the curves screen is awesome. I would recommend this monitor to anyone who wants an excellent monitor for home or office at a more then reasonable price. While I have not used the monitor for gaming, I have used a monitor that has the same 4ms refresh rate and that has the same native resolution of1920 x 1080 and that monitor is over 10 years old and still holds up today, so I can only imagine that this monitor would be perfectly fine for today’s games. I am definitely glad that I went ahead and purchased this monitor, and should I need to replace the monitor that I amusing as a secondary monitor, I will likely purchase another one of this model! Again, Highly recommended and over all this monitor gets a full 5 Stars from me! ~

Had an older LED monitor that was good but this monitor is better: clearer, better colors, details pop. The monitor is used primarily for work. The screen curve is modest and does not impact looking at spreadsheets or when multiple applications are open. There are two negatives but they are far from killers: Adjustment is limited to tilting forward and back, the stand does not permit it to be raised or lowered. I would have liked a spare USB port on the monitor, rather than reaching under the desk to access my desktop, but that seemed to be a feature of slightly more expensive monitors, and not worth the added cost. The 24 inch size is very good for my setup, as it sits next to another 24 inch monitor, and the combination is not overwhelming on my desk.

Monitor de buenas características, con buena imagen, tanto brillo como nitidez
El único inconveniente que le veo es que, una vez armado, es difícil remover la base para poder guardarlo nuevamente en su caja para transportarlo.
No cuenta con bocinas pero tiene un jack de 3.5mm
El menú es sencillo de usar, en mi caso, el cursor que tiene en la parte posterior, el cual también es el botón de encendido, está un poco rígido al moverlo hacia abajo, sin embargo funciona y ya que es un producto de importación prefiero no devolverlo, para no tener que esperar a que me manden otro
El precio varía mucho, pero siendo paciente lo pude comprar en aproximadamente $3,150.00 pesos, y a 18 meses sin intereses

If you’re a gamer this set has some surprises! It has gaming mode! It works with AMD Freesync! It has onboard frame rate speedup. Lots of choices with a super easy menu and a super easy wiggle stick on the back.
You wouldn’t think the curve screen does much, but it does! It gives an amazing depth immersion that I really wasn’t expecting. Color is crisp and black is true black. You can even tweak the black for a real picture of amazing. Curve also makes this set seem way bigger than it is!
Gaming is amazing and even though it’s not 4k you won’t care because it’s seriously amazing! Build quality is really nice and solid. It’s 100% a Samsung and not some cheap junk with a big name badge.
Some comments say it doesn’t have speakers?!? Try turning the sound up by using the back controls! Seriously?!? It’s got great sound!
Doesn’t have a remote and you cannot control the brightness from Windows. Doesn’t have sneaky cameras or microphones, perfect. If you need them just buy a webcam, they are almost free nowadays.
This is an incredible deal for such a good price! Gamer or not you will love this thing. It’s got the style of an Apple product at 100th of the price. So many gamer cool options I don’t understand why they don’t sell it harder?
Does it look cheap, no it’s a real looker. Is it just okay? No it’s brilliant! Can I play at 132434×4357544 and 6000 fps, no. Does 1920 x 1080 at 60 look amazing? YES! You can essentially overclock it using the menu!
Buy one, I love mine! It’s a solid workhorse for anything you want or need. Security minded people, it’s a dumb set! Completely!
Buy one!

It’s actually a little less than 27″ on the desk. (because of its curve) I have it as my main screen, with a flat 22″ in portrait both on a dual VESA mount. So yes, this 27″ can be mounted. No speakers. I went from a large TV screen down to this for gaming. Its great! Super wide means ingames, i have a massive field of view, which helped ease my eyes and was less claustrophobic ingame being able to see around me in a FPS without turning and strafing to really see my surrounding. If you play any game that you think might look gorgeous, this will be a huge influence on end result. I do think this is worth the money for its size and value. the amount of time using it just makes it a great investment. I dont think ill use anything else as a main gaming screen. The curve did help see the corners of game screens better, like your ammo count, which fire fode or position youre in, or a mini map. Being curved, these off to the side parts are now facing directly at you. so no tilted text or glare there.
Anything larger than this size using a curve, kinda defeats its purpose. the screen will be larger than your eyes FOV angle.
