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. 32” Monitor

    The monitor is working nicely and looking great. However, I believed that Bestbuy fooled me and sold me a repacked item. When I took it out of the box, half of the film protection was already came off. The plastic bag for the cords was resealed. I was going to take it back, but it was the last one they had in stock and I didn’t want to wait. Hmmm

  4. Fits in our Airstream where old 24" TV was

    Our TV that came with our Airstream trailer would not play downloaded 4k movies. We camp off grid and enjoy watching movies at night. Looked all over for a 24-27″ 4k tv that would support HDR, 32″ was the smallest which was too big for our space. Decided on a 4k monitor, knowing we could not get TV with it, and no speakers. I have a MacBook Air, and connecting to this monitor is easy and we have Bluetooth speakers in our airstream so now we have a full immersive experience with 4k and surround sound from the trailer. I am purchasing a battery operated cheap TV for those times we want local news on the road..the picture quality on this monitor takes our movie. night to a new level camping..

  5. More inputs and a Display Port Port that works

    I wouldn’t recommend this monitor. Get one that has more inputs and can handle a splitter. This one flickers on every HDMI splitter. Also, the display port can’t handle a HDMI to Display port cable. Find a better one for this money

  7. Really like the quality but…

    I really like the quality and all but it stated that the box contained HDMI, Display port, and USB-c. It only came with HDMI. I need display port for the computer I use so I have to go out and pay more money to get the display port.

    I don’t know how it compares with other monitors in its category, since this is a major upgrade for me. But for the price, I found that this is definitely worth the value.

  10. Line Across Screen after 33 DAYS!

    Verified purchase
    Brian J. Cicio August 21, 2024
    Review source: Amazon

    I THOUGHT Samsung made a quality product. I have owned this monitor for 33 DAYS, and while watching a YouTube video, a line appeared across the top third of the screen. I have the Asurion warranty and was advised to contact Samsung. The Samsung chat rep asked for the model number, then insisted that I was calling about a REFRIGERATOR!!! Hopefully I can get this repaired through Asurion.

    Regardless, this is the LAST Samsung product I will EVER purchase!

  11. So far so good,

    Wall mounted in my RV and primarily used for streaming Streaming Video like YouTube, YouTube TV, and Netflix. I do that by using a Chromecast with Google TV and remote.

    I power it via an external USB C hub to extend the Chromecast’s internal memory storage and add accessories like a USB camera, and/or hard-wired ethernet connection.
