Great Gaming Monitor for PC gamers not looking to break the bank. The 100Hz refresh rate is a nice upgrade from the average 60hz of cheaper monitors. Make sure you set your pc refresh rate in your Windows settings to 100hz to get the maximum performance out of this monitor. It has a great curved feature and is able to be adjusted forwards and backwards for your perfect set up

The screen itself is amazing & the size is really nice. It’s a clear image and I love the curve. However, the speakers suck. For some odd reason the sounds skips badly as if it’s too loud and it also skips through videos as if the connection is bad. Within seconds a video at 21 min will be at 32 min

I bought this monitor with high expectations because it’s curved. However, the visual clarity is a bit lacking, likely due to the resolution being around 100. That said, it’s still fine for general tasks and watching videos. But for gaming or high-end graphic work, it may not be sufficient. I’d recommend this only for those looking for a budget-friendly curved monitor for light use.

Great all-around monitor

The Samsung S39GD is a good monitor that has a little something for everyone.
Work:
This is a great monitor for work because it has a good anti-reflective coating, glare from lights is greatly reduced. There is also 2 eye saver modes that will reduce eye fatigue for those that are on the screen for a prolonged time. One of the best things about the monitor is that is has a 100 mhz refresh rate, once you go over 60 htz there is no going back. Everything just looks smooth when scrolling and switching applications. There is little to no screen flickering which was great for my eyes. The text look good however if you get super close you can see some distortion but this isn’t a 4k display so that’s a given. The included stand has a tilt function, but you cannot adjust the height.
Personal:
Even though the panel does not have HDR it handles colors exceptionally well. The blacks look dark and the colors pop. Even though its stated to have a max brightness of 250 the contrast is so good that you’re not struggling to turn up the brightness, I have noticed this with many Samsung monitors the 250 nits is better than most companies 300 nit screens. The colors do look a lot better when viewing it directly centered, because of the anti-reflective coating you get a white glaze if you look at it from the side. The curve on the monitor is very slight, personally it does not add or take away from the monitor. The monitor has built in speakers but they are not very loud so you will need external speakers if you want to good sound.
Gaming:
The monitor is decent for gaming, being able to have 100 mhz refresh rate is great. The lack of HDR is rough as you don’t get the full experience when it comes to gaming or movies however as mentioned above the contrast is really good so the colors still pop enough.
Samsung has made a great all around monitor. I used it with my Mac and Windows machines and it worked as needed. The monitor is light and easy to setup, one of the best things about the S39GD is how responsive the control button is. Every click registers quickly, this is a huge issue with so many monitors that are 3 times the price.
Pros: Cons
-Refresh rate -No USB C or USB connectors
-Works great with windows and Mac -Speakers are low quality
-Anti-glare screen -Of center viewing isn’t the best
-Responsive controls
-All the ports are in the back which reduces clutter.
-Tilting screen

Great Samsung 27in Curved Monitor

I have been wanting a curved monitor for some time now. I never really pulled the trigger on it because I had some decent monitors and in working from home, I bounce around the house instead of sitting at a desk like setting most of the time. After noticing how old my desk monitor was, I knew it was time.
This Samsung 27in FHD monitor is exactly what I have been needing to replace my old monitor. I really am impressed at the screen real estate. There is truly something different about the curved monitor on your visual perspective. This Samsung is crystal clear, especially at the 100mhz setting if your system supports that. The smoothness of the visual is highlighted by the slightly wrapping nature of the curvature.
On screen settings are easy enough to mange through, just make sure to adjust your laptop for that 2nd screen accordingly. Sound is reasonable for the monitor but if you have a higher end laptop with better audio, you may have already opted for external speakers.
As for ports, I had hoped for a few USB C ports but unfortunately there is only one HDMI, a DVI pin adapter, a power port for the power adapter and a headphone jack. That’s the only real drawback. For example, when I use my Mackbook Air, I have to use a little port adapter to bridge the HDMI to a USB-C.
Other than that, one drawback, the price point was right for this monitor. It really fits my needs and gives me quality visual experience. I would recommend it to others.

Nice 27" Curved Monitor
|

This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.
This monitor from Samsung is a really good dual use screen for either office or non-competitive gaming. I have been using it for my WFH and connected it though a docking station. Nice 27" size and the subtle curve is great for my office needs.
In the box is the monitor, stand in 2 pieces, power brick and cord, HDMI cable and instructions.
Setup is rather easy and smooth and will require a Phillips head screwdriver as it is not a tool-less design. It is also VESA compatible at 75 x 75.
Things to note on the Samsung:
It is FHD meaning 1080p resolution.
There is some degree of tilt for you, but there is NO swivel or height adjustment features at all.
The only input is 1x HDMI unless you are for still some reason have a device with the ancient VGA port.
The blue light is quite annoying and the only settings are Light On when screen off or On when screen On. I say this because it is rather bright in my office when not in use.
Performance wise the screen delivers.
Just make sure when you are in Windows that you change the refresh rate from the default 60 to 100 to take full advantage of the monitor. Colors are fairly accurate and using it with MS Office programs I have 0 complaints with sharpness of text.
I also used it a little bit for gaming and using the user-friendly OSD you can turn on Game Mode for lower latency and can also up the response time to minimize ghosting. Non fps games looked good but since the screen has a 4ms response time, there was slight blurring in fast moving action.
The built in speakers are adequate if you have nothing else and will pass but would recommend at least headphones or external speakers.
