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.

  1. Great value and picture!

    I bought this as a second screen for use with a MacBook Pro, and it is ideal for this use. I can easily run 4 1080P windows along with what’s on my computer’s screen and it all looks excellent. I did not get a chance to try gaming on this screen but from what I saw anything short of high-speed shooters should look excellent.

    In the future I’ll probably run 2 or 3 of these together, this screen is an awesome deal for the price charged! Also, tool less assembly of the stand was a nice surprise!

    Purchased a pair of these for everyday use. Very pleased. The joystick style controls is in a little awkward spot on the rear of the panel.

  3. Won't easily turn back on from sleep mode + burnt out pixel

    I just got this 4k monitor as a replacement second screen for my iMac, and I am disappointed. Out of the box it came with a burnt out pixel on the lower left. More frustrating is that it can seem to hold its HDMI signal when I’m waking the computer from sleep mode. My desktop detect the monitor and I can move my mouse over to the extra space, but the monitor is slow to wake, briefly turns on to show my application over there, but then quickly turns off and displays a message that it has no signal and is going back to sleep. It cycles through this issue several times before finall staying on, allowing me to get back to work. I am going to return the monitor and buy a different one.

  5. Good Value- Good Picture- Good for general Apps

    This 4K monitor is good for most general computing applications. If you are a hard core gamer you will want to look elsewhere.

    PROS- 4K resolution, good contrast, HDMI & Display ports, 60hz refresh good enough for general apps, 3 year warranty, good sale price, screen big enough for 4 open tabs

    CONS- 4-5ms refresh too slow for serious gaming,

    Compare this to other 4K monitors side by side. You will notice a difference.

  6. Pretty bad.. Buyer beware, low quality screen.

    This monitor is one of the worst ones I’ve used in the last 5-7 years.

    The panel is VA, but it has terrible viewing angles. The monitor being 32″ unless you never move your head, up, down, strafe left or right… you can see everything, but be slightly off-center and it will look hazy and colors/contrast will be inaccurate.

    I could also not get the monitor to calibrate colors within acceptable values. The colors are very incorrect and this should not be used for anything but netflix viewing to be honest.

  8. Really horrible interface…

    Rolf W December 2, 2024

    I just received this Samsung S27D (27in) display.
    It has no indicator light to tell you it is on or off. Ok, maybe I can deal with that.
    There is a weird multi-position button that mostly doesn’t respond to anything.
    That is not ok.
    I occasionally see a picture for a split second, then it is gone again.
    My Mac laptop recognized the display right away, so I don’ t think that’s the issue.
    I cannot recommend getting this display… either it was damaged in the shipping
    (some of the styrofoam broken) or Samsung needs to get to work
    and improve their interface… OMG.

    The screen is regular 4K 60Hz one, however angles are poor and black is not deep. I use it as a second one and it does it’s job normally.

    Bought this monitor and Mac Mini M4 together at Best Buy during Black Friday sale.. I use computers primarily for entertainment. I watch You Tube videos more than I watch TV, and this monitor really renders great 4K video.
