Customer Ratings & Reviews

I've only had this monitor going on 2 weeks and I love it! At first, because my desk (18"x58") isn't HUGE, it felt like the stand (just over 12") took up too much real estate. But I quickly acclimated to a custom setup that works for me (I can also always mount it to the wall in the future). I mainly purchased this monitor for the discounted price ($899) and visual real estate. As I work from home and use multiple applications simultaneously, dual or even triple monitors are a must! I've since taken advantage of the PBP option for using only 2 monitors while splitting the third with Crunchyroll. I'm not a PC gamer at all and many (including my coworkers) say I paid too much for an ultrawide gaming monitor when I don't even game on PC. And they may be partly correct. There are TONS of features and customizations for the best gaming experience possible (and I don't understand any of them). What I will say is with the inclusion of my $26 Jelly Comb multi-device keyboard and mouse. I can juggle slow periods in the day between support and streaming without switching cables and/or adapters. I can easily toggle use of my Chromebox, Surface Pro and work laptop seamlessly with the touch of a button (I'm getting off-topic). While I may not be utilizing this monitor to its fullest potential. I'm very happy with my purchase and the options I do use more than make up for the high price tag. I hope to update this review 6 months to a year after the honeymoon phase has worn off.

This has been a great monitor for my needs. I use it for work, but mainly for my photo edits in Adobe Lightroom/Photoshop. I really like that it has an RGB mode which helps when editing my RAW photos. This monitor is paired with an NVIDIA GEFORCE RTX 3070ti and I have had zero issues. I even play Fortnite with the kids and game play is smooth, with frame rates in 200-250 FPS range. I have it mounted to my desk so I can't speak to the table top stand, but it seems like a sturdy mount. I purchased it for $899 and have no complaints. Thank you Samsung again for a quality product!!!!

I've now been using my 49" curved Samsung Monitor for just over two months. Before installing this display my desk was cluttered with these ... 1. 32" Monitor attached to my desktop 2. Three 9" Tablets 3. 2nd 15" Laptop Monitor 4. My Cell phone From the above description I'm sure you could tell that I'm not a Gamer. I use my computer primarily for various Business, Financial and Home Automation processing systems. I've replaced all of the above listed equipment with one Best Buy MSI Laptop running Windows 11, an extensive 24T HDD array and this stellar 49" Samsung Curved Monitor. I'm typically running 5 to 8 open, active Window Apps. The monitor is large and crisp enough to allow me to easily see the numbers and text that I need. I can now easily cut n paste data from one App to another active App. This has helped me tremendously and is a great time saver with no errors caused by having to retype numbers into multiple Windows/Apps. I love this Monitor and a big plus was that Best Buy did a price match for me. The monitor stand allows me to easily shift the height and angle of the display. Best part is that by participating in Best Buy's new promotional program, a Geek Squad Tech installed ALL of my new equipment and software, even equipment that I did nother from Best Buy, at no additional charge. Plus, I now have a full year to use Geek Squad Service 7x24 hours.

I upgraded to this monitor after my Samsung CRG5 went bad and I don't regret the decision. Once you go to an ultra wide monitor is hard to go back. There are higher tier options like the Odyssey G9 or Neo G9 but for the price and performance the CRG9 does the job perfectly, specially if you can get a hold of it on a sale. It beats having two monitor side by side, being great for gaming but for productivity and content creation I would maybe consider a different option. Overall, I am very pleased with this product and its beautiful display.

I had 2 27 inch curved monitors but was looking to just have 1 large monitors to make things more clean in my home office. Needless to say this thing is phenomenal! The 120hz display is buttery smooth and a noticeable improvement over 60hz! I highly recommend this CRG9!!!

It's an excellent monitor that's great for both productive work and gaming. My pros and cons are listed below. The biggest downside is services not utilizing the full 49" screen. Pros: -2k but almost 4k resolution is great enough for most uses. -The 49" makes it a great screen size to multitask with two side-by-side windows with one side for web browsing and the other side for Word doc, discord, or Slack. -The brightness is super strong. Enough to temporarily blind you if you get flash-banged in a game. -gaming has a super wide perspective allowing you to see a lot more. (also a con described later) This gives an edge in spotting enemies based on peripheral vision. It also makes scenes more breathtaking especially in games like Minecraft with RTX. -PBP is great for using 2 devices at once. I used it to diagnose my broken PC while using a mini PC to search for solutions. make sure to adjust the screen resolution when switching to PBP for the best viewing experience. -super useful for video editing especially when you have a long timeline or need to browse for assets in folders. Cons: -Can be too bright and hurt your eyes, I suggest using one of the 3 customizable preset buttons to set the eye protection mode with a brightness of less than 25%. Having a well-lit room also helps -ultra super wide gaming means your top and bottom view might be reduced. This is not ideal for certain first-person shooter games especially when there are cut scenes that look super zoomed in but also high resolution at the same time. -Not meant for fast-paced gaming, if the game is first-person view and fast-paced, the motion blur and quick motions can be a little bit nauseous. -Never truly dark. Even with black scenes, there will be a slight color bloom. This is more noticeable when you look at the mouse cursor on a dark background. -not suitable for most video and movie full-screen modes. They're not designed to be viewed in Full screen so a lot of screen space will be blank. Some sources like Disney+ require a chrome extension to expand them to a 34" monitor aspect ratio -can have finicky resolutions if connected to Apple products like an iPad pro. (most likely iPad OS issues not designed for large screens) -No speakers so the choices are using external sound bars, wired directly to monitor/ PC, or using Bluetooth devices. -Monitor stand legs can take up a lot of room. Monitor arms that support 49" can be pretty pricey (usually $100+) -pray for your neck. Unless you're further than 3ft+ from the screen, you'll be turning your head a lot to view either end of the ultra-wide screen. -Good luck finding high-quality wallpapers. Unless you like only using 1 wallpaper, the market for 49" wallpapers is quite limited unless you search long enough or pay for one. It sucks especially if you want animated wallpapers from the wallpaper engine which often cuts out cool wallpapers or has weird edges. some simple ones still work great -doesn't have auto wake-up mode from power saving mode after using a peripheral like keyboard or mouse. You have to manually press the power button to allow the PC to connect to the monitor from deep sleep which usually happens when the monitor isn't in use for 1 or 2+ hours.

It’s awkward finding it a proper home but I’d work on the floor as long as I have this monitor. The only reason I still go to my office and work is because I haven’t found a safe way to move it home since the box was thrown away. I can see A to Z in a spreadsheet or run 3. I could have conquered the world by now if I had ordered this years ago.

For the price, it is phenomenal. Not really great with free sync/gsync. If your okay with that and the panel not being oled. This is a must buy. (If your desk has the room)

I use this monitor for work & gaming. The ability to have 2 different inputs being displayed at the same time is amazing. Multitasking is streamlined using this monitor as the amount of room you have to view multiple documents is incredible. For super ultra wide compatible games, this monitor is breathtaking. The immersion you feel with this monitor, in my opinion, is comparable to VR. Only one issue - it gets pretty warm. Other than that, this is the perfect monitor. The photos do not do this beast justice.

Yes it's not as good as the Samsung Neo (subjectively eg. curve radius preference), but honestly I got this Samsung CRG9 open box for less than 700$ and it's the best monitor purchase I've ever made. I get to WFH and have my gaming laptop setup for whatever (gaming, youtube, music, etc.). I give it 5*

I work from home and use this monitor strictly for work purposes and it is amazing. I have it split into two separate screens and I could not be happier with the performance. In particular the eye savor setting is fantastic. It is so good that I bought my wife one as well. Very good value.

Great monitor if you're using it for productivity. I got this to replace dual monitors and it genuinely makes a difference when you're able to just put as much windows as you want in any layouts.

Brings gaming to a new level. The image quality is nothing short of breathtaking. I have a msi trident x pro with a GTX 2080 TI and the experience was impressive and inneractive. Field of view is welcomed & important when playing games like World of Warships, World of tanks and battle field 5. The monitor allows for full sound control as well as an array screen accessible settings. It will easly support 3 diffrent inputs from separate devices or 2 side by side using the on board display port inputs. There is a bit of setup involved as well as a learning curve to get the most out of this device. Basic tools are all thats nessary the monitor comes complete with hdmi and display cables to connect you computer or gaming console. This device is not for those on a budget as it is almost $1000 with tax. But with that said, its borderless displays does save desk space and just looks amazing. Love my set up. I recommend this product if you can justify it in your budget.

Nice monitor. A lot bigger than I imagined! Pros: it has great colors, 5K display with display port. Ability to split into two 27” screens Cons: literally moving my lead from side to side. Heavy monitor so it’s expensive to find mounting hardware.

Best monitor we ever had!!! Excellent for games! We used to have 2 monitors and this new Samsung CRG9 make my Desk look less busy. Excellent image and response time.

This is the best monitor!!!! Great for working on project schedules and reviewing construction drawings. Able to have several documents open and place side by side, without having to minimize. Would highly recommend!!!!

I bought this monitor for about 1 year now and this has been a great blessing to me and my business. Somehow my productivity expanded and also gave me more results on my works. Having two or three monitors with different brands, or even if they are the same brand, is cool. Don't take me wrong. but having one large screen like this one, makes you more focused somehow. No idea how to explain this. I don't need to worry about running multiple HDMI cables on the back of every monitor and also it consumes less energy. That's crazy! I like it a lot and have nothing to complain about it.

It is good and quality screen. I love big screen! Monitor can connect iMac and PC. They can split from Mac and PC. That is really nice

Im still using this monitor and it does the trick! The screen is bright and image quality is not bad in a monitor at this size. The size may not be for everyone but it is for me!

The first impressions delivered by this monitor had me scraping my jaw off the floor. The extended vision in videogames allowing high FOV angles is a true edge against the competition. The work efficiency factor is amazing with great options for various window arrangements - more so for Windows 11 (10 has issues with centered windows). All that said I thought this monitor was capable of 240Hz at purchase but it it is not - I should've paid closer attention. The lack of 240Hz support is frustrating as I feel the FPS games I play have very visible tearing and G-SYNC/FreeSync doesn't fix it. I'm running an RTX 4090 for reference. Otherwise everything else is great with good presetting options and an easy switch from 'eye-saver' to 'gaming' and back.
