    This monitor isn't going to get mentioned for color accuracy or impressive resolution, but as a basic inexpensive monitor it's reliable and works great. The curve of the screen does indeed help me reduce eye strain and I like that it has a night mode to reduce blue light. The control setup is easy to use and it supports automatically turning on and off with my computer. With an adapter it also works great with my phone or my galaxy tablet for using Samsung Dex with a keyboard and mouse. Left my bag at work and only have my phone? No problem, plug that into the monitor and I can do schedules and invoices like it's nothi...

    I had purchased this building a new PC and I was amazed that despite their free shipping saying it would take a week, it arrived after a single day in excellent quality from FedEx. Much of this monitor is more impressive but leaves some to be desired. Setting up the stand is easy enough, though doesn't snap into place very reassuringly. Powering on is simple from the power button/joystick it back. The design of the menu, toggling it to the features, is a bit clunky with the joystick design of it. While more intuitive than up and down buttons, it's not much better and often pops you back out. Screen quality is e...

    After less than a year, I've had the same issue other people are having with the monitor entering sleep mode with HDMI (not all the time, but every other day it seems). There is little to no support online on how to fix this. I've updated the drivers, made sure the refresh rate matches, power supply works, etc. When I connect to another monitor, my computer works fine. When I disconnect the HDMI from the monitor, it says awating signal (which is what it's supposed to do). It's better off buying a new monitor rather than dealing with this headache or paying for shipping and repairs.

    I love this monitor it's crispness in how vibrant all the colors are isbspectacular. It is so clear that it feels like I am there. I use this monitor for gaming and i truly wouldn't want any other monitor. And I have had a few other brands like vizio a roku and even onn and samsung is the best. I'll never go with another tv company. I got all of them at Walmart and samsung definitely was my favorite. It really shows the high Def screen and the curve is spectacular.

    I used my monitors for work. I have several tasks and applications that co-work together information from one to another having multiple screens to look at the big picture instead of going back-and-forth and organizing my work a lot faster. The clarity and the colors of the monitors always make it enjoyable to do my work when I'm looking at a nice clear pretty sharp crisp picture.

    I absolutely love the monitor, I use it for both my PC aswell as my Xbox and it runs them both so smoothly. I think this is easily the best monitor that you can get for that money.
