Bought this monitor since I’ve upgraded my console to an Xbox series x. I was looking for something that can provide 4K gameplay and 60 FPS, Colors are great, there is an on screen menu that is perfect for any small adjustments that need to be made. The eye saver mode is very nice to have as an option if you game a lot like me, or just stare at a screen.

Monitor great (I think) for Mac Mini 2020 M1

Great monitor, but can do without the occasional screen blackout. To be fair, I'm not sure it's the monitor or my Mac Mini (M1, 2020, 16 GB Ram, set to display @ 3840x2160 @ 60hz). Have not spent time to troubleshoot the issue or research. I would recommend, the issue is probably lack of my research & troubleshooting I hope! LOL

Really great screen! Bought two of them when they were on sale. I would do it again. The screen is crystal clear. We produce youtube videos and it looks great. I like the HDR setting because it helps relieve my eyes.

Works great with the Mac Mini M1. Super sharp.

This 28" 4K by Samsung is one of the sharpest computer monitors I could find. I tried going cheap and getting the "2K" 32" version by LG, but when reading text on the screen, the text was blurry and actually caused eye strain. I had to return it, and went with this monitor instead.
This is much much much clearer, and the colors are spot-on. I really like the design, the modern-looking stand, etc.
BestBuy made it easy with their wonderful and convenient curb-side pickup. They brought it out to my truck on a busy, windy, and cold Saturday afternoon, making it easy for me to get in and out within minutes so I could get home and mount it.
I have it connected to my M1 Mac Mini, and it looks great. Again, super happy.

Fatal flaws in otherwise outstanding monitor
Posted .
This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.
I really wish this monitor had worked out. Wonderful picture, love the split input feature, esp under work-from-home, lets me run work and home screens side by side. Stable stand, no wobble. Love that there are 2 HDMI inputs. Blue light reduction. Non-glare. Checks ALL the boxes except speakers, and those are usually substandard in monitors anyway.
Fatal flaws: Monitor lost its mind from time to time on inputs. Auto-detect wasn't reliable, especially after sleep, and if if fails to detect an input you are hosed. Have to unplug the monitor and plug back in - no other way to recover. Oh, just turn off auto-detect, right? Sure, works great until you need to switch inputs. There's NO WAY to switch inputs if an input is selected but inactive. To switch away from HDMI 1, you have to boot up the thing attached to HDMI 1, wait for the screen to come up, then go through the menu to switch to HDMI 2 or DP. Otherwise you are locked on HDMI 1 till the end of time.
Samsung support's answer to these problems??? They said you have to set the screen resolution of the monitor to be the same as the laptop. Nice.
Anyway, if you only plan to run one input and can turn off auto-detect, this monitor is awesome. Although you can get 4K for less if you are running only one input.

The picture is absolutely beautiful and no matter what anyone says it’s about as good as you can get for the value. However, the refresh rate is sub-par at best.
