Words won’t describe how cool this monitor is. Bought it for my RTX2060 gaming laptop (laptop has native 144hz display) and I can actually play all my games in 240fps now! Gorgeous and smooth display! Love the curved screen! Got it for a decent deal but I’ve already spent so many hours on It that I’m probably paying pennies per hour. Halo infinite looks insane on this thing!

The monitor has the advertised specs and works as expected. However, it does not receive 5 stars for 2 reasons. 1: the vesa mounting holes on the back are in a recessed area, meaning that some third party mounts will not fit. 2: there is a significant amount of ghosting that is especially noticeable on dark backgrounds, and it makes images blurry when they are moving quickly. It is not very noticeable in most games, but it is there. Additionally, the pixel density is somewhat low because it is only 1080p on a 27 inch monitor, but what is the case with all 27 inch 1080p monitors.

The max refresh rate on the monitor is 240 Hz, as listed. This is great for gaming with a powerful desktop, but a bit excessive for using a Mac, as to my knowledge Macs support 120 FPS maximum. The monitor cannot be raised or lowered using the provided stand, which can potentially be space-inefficient. The monitor has a variety of customization options. My main complaint is that I've found that I need to manually turn the monitor on instead of it waking up automatically when my computer wakes up. This may not be a problem for Windows/desktop users.

If you pay less than $200 for this monitor than it’s a spectacular deal. It is decent quality l. Mine wasn’t very sharp but the colors were good. The curve was great for gaming! The issues I had were the hdmi connection. I had to constantly unplug and plug the hdmi back in for it to work. I ended up returning this monitor for a more expensive LG monitor. The LG works flawlessly! When I bought the Samsung it was $268 but for $169 if you get one without HDMI issues then buy this immediately because it’s great for that price!
