Awesome monitor for the price I got it for. Runs smooth and nice. Sufficient ports with a headphone jack on the monitor. Easy to access and change settings. The stand was a bit hard for me to set up and I had to kind of force it, unless I connected wrong, but overall the monitor is great!

Love it, bought for my Ps5 although it only runs up to 120Hz and this monitor is 240hz, Ps5 looks AMAZING. Eye care mode is also amazing for night time, love this curved feature, my game is super enjoyable.

Purchased to have a compatible monitor with my home built PC. Originally was going to go with an AMD GPU but I bought what I could get and needed this bad boy for the G-Sync feature. Great colors, flawless connectivity, a great monitor for my setup. Need a second one now for a dual screen setup...

I bought this monitor as a gift for my husband and he loves it! He is really big into gaming and has wanted a curved monitor for a while. He loves how smooth the images are when moving in in games. I don’t think he has stopped saying how much he loves this monitor!
Super easy to set up, great quality and good value for the price!

This curved monitor was the perfect solution for my college student. It fits perfectly on his desk I. The dorm room. Great for connecting his laptop as well as his gaming system. The curved design allowed him to set up his desk so he still had room for schoolwork. He loves it.

I am new to pc gaming, and while looking at tons of different monitors, I found this! I never seen anything like how this makes gaming better than ever. Picture quality is clear af and has many display ports to use with multiple of my devices. I was very skeptical into going into curve monitors but this was worth every penny.

should come with its own spacers

This would have been the perfect 5 star monitor in my opinion. However, the weird idea to have a 70mm monitor mount area blocked by a circle by design, makes it hard to find a monitor mount that fits it perfectly. this issue comes up more often when looking for duel-monitor stands because they sometimes dont come with the right spacers needed for this monitor.

I wanted a high refresh-rate monitor, was going to settle for 144hz, but then I saw this Samsung unit on Best Buy's site and the local Best Buy had *one* in stock. So, I went and, fortunately, nobody bought it before I got there.
The performance is buttery smooth with games at high FPS. Text is sharp in Windows.
I liked the monitor so much after the first one, that I went ahead and bought two more so that I could have a triple monitor setup with three monitors that are exactly the same. The curvature is really nice as well.

This monitor is simply incredible. The 240hz makes games feel extremely smooth, and the curve really puts it together. I’ve never been a flat monitor person, and this was just an instant love kind of thing. It’s been great and I’ve not had a single issue, highly recommend!

Honestly I never own a monitor I Always gamed on a tv but this Monitor really took thing up a level. I can say since I bought this I have less lag in my gameplay and overall the experience is better. It’s also compatible with the PS5 and it runs 120hz smooth. The only down side is there’s no speakers but if you’re looking for a monitor look no further this is it. got my for 269 on sale which is even better.

I didn't think I would like the curved monitor and was a bit Nervis until I installed it and adjusted it a little. Now, I am having a great time with it in games and surfacing the web. We have 2 in the household & we both enjoy the "CRG5"
