Pros & Cons
Pros
- Stunning OLED Picture Quality: The monitor consistently receives high praise for its OLED display, delivering vibrant colors, deep, inky blacks, and exceptional contrast. Many reviewers describe the visuals as 'gorgeous,' 'breathtaking,' and a significant upgrade from previous monitor technologies, making games and movies 'pop.'
- High Refresh Rate and Fast Response Time: Gamers particularly appreciate the 240Hz refresh rate and 0.03ms response time, which provide an ultra-smooth and lag-free experience. This performance is noted to be a 'game-changer' for fast-paced titles, eliminating motion blur and ghosting.
- Sturdy and Adjustable Stand: The included stand is frequently highlighted for its robust and sturdy build, offering a wide range of adjustability. Users also found the monitor easy to set up, with the stand allowing for quick and secure attachment right out of the box.
Cons
- Fragile Power Button/Joystick: A recurring and critical complaint is the poor build quality of the power button, which also functions as a joystick for menu navigation. Multiple users reported it breaking or crumbling off after only a few months of use, rendering the monitor's settings almost unusable and leading to frustration with Samsung's repair policies.
- Pixel Shift and Image Cut-off: The monitor's 'pixel shift' feature, intended to prevent burn-in, is a significant annoyance for many. It causes the displayed image to shift off the screen by several pixels, cutting off UI elements and creating noticeable 'gaps' or a 'micro stutter' that users find distracting and impossible to disable.
- Annoying Firmware/Software Features: Several users experienced frustrating software issues, including frequent and intrusive 'screen optimizer' pop-ups that interrupt usage, automatic dimming of the screen during inactivity, and unreliable auto-detect input switching. Some also noted that HDR functionality did not work well with certain devices like Macs or Xbox Series X.
Customer Fit
- Primary audience: Competitive / enthusiast gamers: Players who want high frame rates, instant response, and “cheating-level” clarity in shooters and fast titles. Many upgraded from IPS or older LCD and describe the jump as huge.
- Secondary audience: Visual quality seekers: People who care about cinematic color, inky blacks, and HDR for story games, movies, and general desktop use (including console and Switch players). Several say it’s “the best monitor I’ve ever owned.”
- Ideal scenarios: Gaming setups (PC, PS5, Switch), home desks used for both work and play, and small home “battle stations” where adjustability, 27" size, and clarity at 1440p matter. Some buyers gift it to students or family for school and gaming.

Annoying pop-ups are impossible to turn off
Verified purchase Verified purchase: This reviewer bought the product.Customer July 23, 2025Review source: AmazonReally annoying pop-up comes on every time I wake up the computer and obscures the password entry screen. SPent way to much time in the menus trying to get rid of it.
Picture does look great but honestly, wish I had purchased another brand. Makes me feel victimized every time I use the computer. So annoying.

Oled Shinee
Verified purchase Verified purchase: This reviewer bought the product.kevin July 23, 2025Review source: AmazonThis monitor is everything i could have asked for!! I like the fact it makes every game I play on it shine just like it would on my switch oled!! The refresh rate is awesome specially for games that utilize it up to 120GHZ. Haven’t had a problem with it so far, but I’m not really one to go messing with something that ain’t broke. Fits just right where I needed it to, only drawback would be that everything has to be done with the button at the bottom of the monitor. For that price, couldn’t I have gotten a remote or something?? lol

Pixel shift causes the edges of the display to be cut off, and cannot be disabled
Verified purchase Verified purchase: This reviewer bought the product.SPD July 14, 2025Review source: AmazonThis monitor has a feature called “pixel shift” which is common on OLED monitors, and most OLED panels, including this one, are constructed to be actually slightly larger than the rated display resolution, such that the displayed image can be shifted around periodically to help prevent burn-in, without cutting off the visible image. For some reason on this display (and from my research, many other Samsung monitors), whether it’s because Samsung engineers are bad at math, or because they feel that you don’t need to be able to see your entire screen (I disagree), this feature is implemented such that the image can be shifted off the display by up to 10-15 pixels, causing a large portion of the edge of many UI elements to be cut off (see attached images showing normal Windows logo on start button vs. Windows logo on start button partially cut off by pixel shift), which is extremely distracting and makes the monitor completely unusable in its current state for any serious purpose. It is extremely obtrusive in both every day use and gaming. According to multiple Samsung support articles, this is expected behavior for their products, so I guess I can never purchase a Samsung OLED device ever again. This is especially frustrating because companies that use their panels in their own monitors, such as Alienware, have been able to successfully fix this pixel shift in firmware such that it still shifts but stays within the bounds of the displayable area. Unfortunately due to the completely unacceptable experience and lack of support from the manufacturer, I have purchased an alternative device that correctly implements the pixel shift feature, and I will be returning this monitor as soon as the new one arrives.

This is what beauty looks like
Verified purchase Verified purchase: This reviewer bought the product.Colin McHaney July 11, 2025Review source: AmazonI am absolutely floored at the quality of this monitor. I finally decided to buy it during prime day and cannot believe my eyes. I have never had a monitor like this, as my others have been LCD.
Its like comparing a skateboard to a crotch rocket, its not even in the same ballpark.
Im not a tech genius as far as monitor specs go, but I am so impressed with the color accuracy and the gaming picture quality. Great viewing angle.
Other reviews about dead pixels are not what im having on mine, its PERFECT..

Design Flaw. Do not Buy.
Verified purchase Verified purchase: This reviewer bought the product.Trevor_G July 4, 2025Review source: AmazonThis otherwise excellent monitor is ruined by an unacceptable design/engineering flaw. The tiny joystick-switch for changing settings is made of fragile plastic. Despite being alerted to this issue, and after taking care to be gentle, the item broke. Unlike my other purchase, the G8, I cannot use the remote. I have the original packing and would like to return it, but it obviously cannot be repaired. My recommendation: Do not buy this. Sad, I like Samsung products, but they must learn a lesson here.
