Nice sleek look, I purchased 2 of them, liked so well I bought 2 32” inch models for my wife’s work station

Great quality only thing that annoys me is the monitor stand it’s kinda shakey. But the screen is screening !

For the price point I have zero complaints. It's a monitor and it monitors well. Connections are easy to make and picture clarity is good.

It’s a really good monitor, I personally use it for gaming and it holds up perfectly!

I am very satisfied with this purchase.. I was not aware they didn’t have sound though… have to look at the fine print for that info. But still solid purchases

Good Product Pretty clear and sharp display The only downside is that it leans a little forward

Video quality is good. But I am giving it a 3 stars because the parts that helps it to stand are not stable which is annoying.

Perfect Second Screen for Dual-Monitor Setup with MacBook Pro ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ (4/5) I recently purchased the Samsung 27" S3 (S36GD) LED FHD 100Hz Curved Monitor to use alongside another monitor with my MacBook Pro, and overall I’m pleased with it. Why I Bought It I already had one similar Samsung monitor and wanted to create a dual-monitor setup for improved productivity. This monitor fit well with my existing setup and has blended in nicely with my workflow. What I Like: Great match for dual setup: The design and size complement my other monitor perfectly, making the extended desktop across both screens feel seamless. Smooth visuals: The 100Hz refresh rate makes a noticeable difference for everyday use — scrolling, dragging windows, and light gaming feel fluid and responsive. Curved screen adds immersion: The subtle curve is comfortable on the eyes and helps draw you into work or content without being distracting. Easy connectivity: It’s simple to hook up via HDMI, and macOS detects it quickly — no fussing with settings required. Crisp display at this price point: The FHD panel looks clear for documents, browsing, coding, and watching videos, which is exactly what I need for general productivity. What Could Be Better: Not ideal for color-critical work: If you do professional photo/video editing with strict color requirements, this monitor won’t match higher-end color-accurate displays — but for everyday productivity it’s solid. Stand adjustability is limited: The tilt is fine, but there’s no height or pivot adjustment. I solved this with a dual-monitor mount, which worked great. Overall Experience: This Samsung S3 monitor has been a great addition to my dual-monitor setup with my MacBook Pro. It delivers smooth performance, a comfortable viewing experience, and pairs nicely with my existing screen. If you want a reliable, good-looking curved monitor for productivity and everyday use, this is a strong choice. Final Verdict: A reliable second monitor for dual-monitor workflows — especially good for productivity, casual media, and general use with macOS. If color-accuracy isn’t a priority and you’re okay with basic stand adjustments, it’s well worth the purchase.

This curved monitor completely blew me away. The picture quality is crystal-clear, colors are vibrant, and the curve makes everything feel more immersive—whether I’m working, watching movies, or gaming. It’s honestly the best thing I’ve ever bought from Best Buy. The setup was quick and easy, and the design looks sleek and modern on my desk. The curve reduces glare and keeps everything comfortably in view without straining my eyes. I didn’t realize how much it would improve my daily computer use until I started using it—now I can’t imagine going back to a flat screen. If you’re even thinking about getting one, do it. This monitor is a total game-changer!

This was a great price, for a curved, 27" monitor, it has the control on the right rear. So once I got used to where it is, and what all it does, it was very easy to install, control, and use. Not only tilts, but the colors are nearly perfect. This one has HDMI and VGA ports, so it can be used with an older pc. And the Samsung brand is worth the price. I just wish it was adjustable up and down, like my Dell monitor is.

This monitor was easy to set up, works great and especially enjoying the curve, makes everything easier to see with less glare.

Easy to setup, literally done in 30, minus unboxing. Performance is outstanding. Would likely purchase another. Screen quality could be better but it’s still really crisp and fast

I use this monitor every day for work and occasional gaming. It works great. The curved surface is so much nicer than flat screens.

Started a new job in January and work from home on most Fridays or when I’m sick. Purchased two of these monitors to make my work much easier. They’re great monitors that have served their purpose well!

So far this has been a great monitor. This really is the perfect size for an every day use computer. The curve is something i've always wanted and it hasnt disappointed.

We bought two of the Samsung 27″ Essential S3 (S36GD) curved monitors and couldn’t be happier. They offer surprisingly good image quality and performance for the price—crisp 100 Hz visuals, smooth motion, and the immersive 1800R curve really enhances the viewing experience. Great value overall.

My son's monitor quit working suddenly and he chose this monitor as the replacement. He is very happy with the quality and loves the curved screen.

The picture quallity is great and the curve is really nice. The only thing I don't like is the toggle switch to power it down. I cant get it to turn off completely so the standby light flashes when the computer is off. Also wish that it had a display port connection.

Have no issues, work perfectly well. The size is perfectly well for what I am using the monitor for, HDMI connect is ok.

Really loving this monitor. I got it on a black friday deal, and it performs amazingly! It's the perfect amount of curve.
