Pros & Cons

Pros

  • Excellent 4K Picture Quality: Reviewers consistently praise the monitor's stunning 4K UHD resolution, crisp and clear visuals, vibrant and accurate colors, and good brightness, making it ideal for work, photo/video editing, and immersive viewing experiences.
  • Large Screen Size for Productivity: The 27-inch and 32-inch screen sizes are highly valued for providing ample workspace, allowing users to multitask with multiple windows, view spreadsheets, code, and enjoy content without eye strain, especially beneficial for those needing a larger display.
  • Good Value for Price: Many customers consider the monitor to be a great value for its price, particularly when purchased on sale, offering high-quality 4K resolution at a competitive cost.

Cons

  • Non-Adjustable Stand: A frequent complaint is the monitor's stand, which lacks height adjustment and sometimes swivel capabilities. Users find this inconvenient for ergonomics and multi-monitor setups, with some even noting inconsistent heights between identical models.
  • Missing Cables and Limited Connectivity: Several reviews report that advertised cables, such as DisplayPort and USB-C, were missing from the box. Furthermore, the general lack of USB-C ports and limited input options (often only one HDMI and one DisplayPort) are significant drawbacks for many users, especially those with modern laptops or multiple devices.
  • Annoying Software & Connectivity Issues: Users are frustrated by persistent software annoyances, including a large, non-dismissible 'register' pop-up menu that appears upon waking or turning on the monitor. Connectivity issues like losing signal with the computer, slow wake-up from sleep mode, and performance lag (especially with Macs) are also commonly reported.

Customer Fit

  • Primary audience: Productivity / creative users: People doing photo/video editing, spreadsheets, design, or multitasking across many windows say the 4K clarity and large desktop space make work easier and more comfortable for long sessions.
  • Secondary audience: Home / general use owners: Users who mainly browse, stream, or want a single big screen instead of two monitors praise the image quality and say it “replaces having two displays” for everyday use.
  • Ideal scenarios: Work-from-home setups needing a bigger second screen for laptops or Mac Mini. Casual console / PC gaming at 4K 60Hz, but not high frame rate shooters. Households that watch YouTube / streaming on the monitor instead of using a TV.

    This works well with MacBook Pro. It doesn’t display for a MacBook Air from 2014. The MacBook Air can sense the monitor in the display settings but the monitor is just black. Using a thunderbolt to HDMI adapter.

    I made an order line and picked up in the store. After waiting for two weeks, I received an defective item. There is a black spot on the screem.

    I called bestbuy online and spoke with online support team Nameera. I was told that because I ordered online and picked it up in the store, there was nothing she can help with and I would need to speak with someone in the store. This doesn’t make sense to me because this is an online order.

    I asked where I can file a complaint or a claim. She said there was NO place in Bestbuy that customers can file a complaint or a claim with.

    This is a great monitor. Samsung sets the standard. For a little extra money, you move up to 32″ and get sharp clear 4k quality. If your eyes are only worth $99 or you only look at it for a short time then fine. But do your eyes a favor and invest in video card and monitor.

  7. Overall Experience is Bad!

    The color profiles are very poor. I tried making all possible adjustments, but I was not satisfied with the colors when connected to my MacBook Pro using an HDMI extension. Additionally, the refresh rate dropped significantly to 30 Hz with the Apple HDMI adapter. When tested with a Mac Mini and direct HdMI output the refresh rate was fine, but the colors still appeared unnatural. Even the control buttons are located in a bad position to drive OSD menus comfortably. No height adjustments. My overall experience about this Samsung monitor is very bad!

  8. Great Picture but No Real Controls and Start Button is on Back!

    Frank J. Stanton December 7, 2024

    The picture is excellent, but there is only one single button that does everything. The power button is on the rear at the bottom of the bezel. A transparent box pops up with laughable controls which you have to toggle in different directions to accomplish minor tweaks. It’s inexcusable that the power/control button is out of sight in the back of the monitor. I don’t see how one could really adjust the colors or brightness with any precision. I’m keeping it because I was desperate to replace my monitor because I’m very busy. I’m very unhappy that there is no way to seriously tune the colors and brightness. The hidden button is a joke. It’s very anti-person. Oh, and there is no speaker, just a a sound jack.

    This is my second 32″ Samsung monitor. They are great for the price. I do video editing so two monitors are helpful.
