Customers are saying

Customers admire the 28” ViewFinity UHD IPS AMD FreeSync with HDR Monitor's picture quality, color vibrancy, and value for its price, frequently praising the HDR capabilities and ease of use. However, some users express concerns regarding the refresh rate and the monitor stand's sturdiness. Additionally, the lack of built-in speakers and the placement of the VESA mount have drawn criticism, as has the input switching mechanism.

    Product is excellent for the price point. 2k resolution is more than fine for gaming because 4k is really over rated... even at 8k resolutions, you still can't see what kids love Cinnamon Toast Crunch

    Would not recommend for M1 MacBook Pro.

    Review related to functionality of this monitor with M1 MacBook Pro and purchased HDMI to USB C cable. Connected cable to HDMI 1 port. MacBook recognized the monitor initially and worked well with good image quality. Used it for viewing scanned photos and editing about couple hours, and then turned off computer and monitor. When tried to use it again following day, difficulty recognizing the monitor thru same port, and would cycle thru HDMI 1, then HDMI 2, and then DP. I attempted to use the toggle/joy stick type button of the monitor to prevent the cycling. Not sure what happened, but eventually stopped and able to use monitor again. Every time would put computer to sleep or turned off and on again, the same cycling thru the ports would occur again. After 2 days of frustration of my inability to find a solution thru the manuals and online help sites, was unable to fix this issue. When the image was present, I was satisfied with the image quality. Other complaints of this monitor was the frustrating use of the control button/joystick/switch at the bottom of the monitor, and the poor documentation and instruction quality of the accompanying quick manual and the online PDF manual. Samsung should have been able to provide better documents. I'm sure this monitor would have functioned well for someone else, but frustrating to use with my MacBook.

    After spending a few months working from home on my laptop, I was experiencing eye strain and decided to upgrade my home office with a bigger monitor. The graphics on the Samsung UR55 have been fantastic; the 4k resolution really does make a difference. Highly recommend if you are looking at an extended WFH scenario too.

    Just alright.. This monitor has some really cool features, but when it comes down to using it every day you can really feel its flaws, the HDR mode on this monitor is VERY dark & becomes almost unusable when this feature is enabled.

    Great price - compromised VESA mount

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    Great price. Great monitor. Compromised VESA mounting due to mechanical interference between mounting plate and curved flange surrounding monitor mount facia. Easy to solve with spacers and longer M4 machine screws. See photo.

    Great for price, I use it as a gaming monitor! It works well when you're on a budget. Color representation is pretty good, could pass as an lcd oled version. For the normal eyes, you'd be doing good with this one!

    Bang for buck, def recommend this especially if your a graphic designer or content creator. I've tried a couple monitors and this was the best cost to size to many other aspects, look into this and view YouTube video reviews for more.

    Bought this for working from home during the pandemic. My wife uses this by a bright window. Text and images are razor sharp and clearly visible. I have not tried gaming or image editing with this monitor as that is not what we bought it for.

    Decided to update my monitor. I previously had a 20" HP. It did well for many years. Now that I am using my home PC more often I wanted a bigger monitor. This 28" Samsung is the perfect size and has excellent picture quality. I have used it for work, school, and to view tv shows. It is perfect for what I need.

    I needed to upgrade my Dell monitor and this was the only 4k monitor in my budget. I am not disappointed this looks great for videos and gaming. The refresh is really good for my PS5. I would recommend for anyone looking not to pay a ton for a 4k monitor.

    Great price for a 4K 28" display. Crisp and sharp for me. I use it as an external monitor for my MacBookPro. The only thing I DON'T like about it is when you switch sources, it auto-searches for the new input instead of you being able to select HDMI1, HDMI2 or Displayport specifically. It's still a great value.

    Needed monitor to use with MacBook Pro, older iMac was running slow. this made the change seem very fluid like. I still have large screen and great resolution still. Only needed it for work and it works without any issues.
