I have had this monitor for only 2 weeks, so that is the time span of use I can address. I bought this Samsung monitor because of Samsung’s great reputation with visuals. That definitely stands true. However, the placement of the on/off switch for this screen would be awkward for everyone. It’s located on the far back of the monitor, which makes it hard to reach and impossible to see. Know that the screen does not rotate on the pedestal, and this further complicates this problem. In my case, the monitor sits on a raised ledge at the back of my desk. This does not allow me to shut it off. Poor console design. The switch should be in the front, or if possible, on one side.

For the price, this is an absolutely amazing monitor, amazing quality, clarity and tons of customizability and the lack of difficulty to use unlike other monitors, would 100% recommend!

I use my Samsung monitor for Karaoke presentations. This is the second Samsung monitor that I have purchased from Best Buy. The first one is going strong after 6 years use with no problems. The second "new" monitor is used with my laptop. The first one is used with a CDG player.

The Samsung 24" S3 (S30GD) IPS LED FHD 100Hz Monitor is perfect as an affordable second monitor. As an Adobe Photoshop user, I find it really advantageous to have a second display to free up the main screen for detailed photo editing. That’s the primary reason I chose the smaller 24” monitor from Samsung and it perfectly up to the task. It’s no doubt a bare-bones monitor, but it does have tilt, but unfortunately there is no vertical movement as the base is fixed.
Assembly out-of-thebox was simple and quick. It uses a small power brick and the connections are limited to VGA and HDMI, so no displayport. The bezel is nice and thin around the top and sides, and the screen is non-glare. IPS is a definite plus to improve angle-of-view and 100Hz can improve picture quality, especially when used for gaming.
Since my main monitor is a Samsung 32” 4K display, this little 24” Samsung is the perfect complement at just over $100. It’s definitely a budget monitor, but it still earns 5 stars in its weight class.
