Great value for a 4K
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought it on sale, I think the color accuracy is good for the price, however, the refresh rate is not the best. But if you don't care for that and want 4K resolution and color accuracy this is a good option if you have a budget.

Huge with high resolution
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I love this screen. It's huge and very high resolution. I set to small font and use it as 3 or 4 screens. I bought it more than one year ago, I still become excited every time I use it.

Great for work and play
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This monitor is very large and the quality very high. As someone mostly using it for work and video viewing it does a fantastic job of displaying the picture clearly and allowing my to spreadsheet successfully. My only critique would be that it doesn’t have built in speakers.

Superb 4K Monitor
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I finally decided to make the jump to a 4K monitor. Been wanting to do so for awhile, but just never got around to it for various reasons (mainly the cost). Since I've been using my computer more during the pandemic, I thought now was a good time to upgrade. So when I found a good deal for this on the Best Buy website, I made my purchase. I don't regret it at all. The colors, clarity, and overall performance is leaps and bounds better than my old 2K monitor. I've been missing out for far too long. No complaints whatsoever about this monitor so far. I would definitely recommend this monitor to anyone looking for/thinking about buying a nice 4K monitor for their PCs.

Great UHD monitor for our laptop.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We use this monitor as a mobile set up for our laptop. The only thing I wish it had were internal speakers, but aside from that it is a solid monitor capable of vibrant colors and deep blacks. There are better options, but for someone who edits commercial photography and video on the go. This is a great option.

Great!
||Posted . Owned for 5 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought this monitor to pair with my Mac mini. It’s gorgeous, and very easy to use. Some users complained about the tilt options, but I did not find out to be a problem at all. I like the multiple inputs, although I used primarily as a computer monitor.

Great with my Mac Mini
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Up to the task! Works great on my Mac Mini M1. Exceptionally crisp fonts, good performance. Speakers are pretty weak. They're a _minor_ upgrade over the mac mini's internal speakers, but you'll want actual real speakers I think.

Excellent monitor for WFH
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.My company reimbursed me for this purchase, and I picked this monitor only because it has the earliest delivery date. I was pleasantly surprised by how good the 4K IPS display is when I paired it with my Macbook Pro at work - the brightness, color quality and contrast are excellent.

Perfect 4k Monitor
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Review date 2/5/2021: Bought 2 of these in April 2020 that I use daily working from home. Bought another one in November 2020 with the great black friday deals. Wife is using that one. These are perfect for working from home and recommend to everyone. No need to go any fancier. Make sure though that your computer can support these. My main work computer is an i7 Lenovo that is 5 years old. The mini Display port can do 60hz, but the HDMI port can only do 30hz. So while using that computer one monitor is 60hz and the other 30hz. Not a huge deal and barely noticeable in most cases. My other has thunderbolt c, so just got a splitter to dual display port. Make sure you buy a spiltter that can do 4k at 60hz to BOTH ports and then cables that support 60hz. You can find cheap ones on Amazon, but its also flooded with 4k at 30hz crap. 30hz vs 60hz is just refresh...you get 4k with both.

The monitor I've been waiting for!!!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.As the owner of a 4K UHD TV for the past three years, I've been spoiled by how amazing Full HD Blu-rays look on it; the visuals/colors just really pops when watching. It got to a point where I was no longer satisfied with a Full HD monitor for the PC. I don't have the shelf space for anything bigger than 28" so a TV wasn't going to work. The initial 4K monitors that were coming out started pricing close to the four figure range so that wasn't going to work, either. Eventually I stumbled onto this monitor: majority positive reviews, priced fairly decent, perfect screen size. Setup was relatively easy: installing monitor to base, connecting terminals to outputs, adjusting settings took about 30 min. Colors are rather accurate out the box but, for those of you who're insistent to tinkering, the color setting is disabled when set to Cinema mode; you can use the Custom setting instead if you want to play around with color & gamma. Catching up on the last few seasons of Hawaii Five-O & also watching Picard on CBS all-access and the colors are vibrant: lush greens, eye-popping reds, etc. Same goes for watching Batman (the 60's tv series) on remastered 1080p Blu-Ray via PS3 connected to an HDMI receiver. And blacks are just that, black, not a dark gray; they're often times rich & deep (almost OLED black). Don't let the screen size fool you- there's plenty of amazing detail on display here: I can make out all sorts of freckles, pores, liver spots, wrinkles, etc. Particularly watching Batman the 60's series, I can see the delineation of blacks in the suits that are being worn (lapels, designs, fabric, etc.); I can even make out the seams in the Dynamic Duo's tights where they begin & end (wasn't seeking it out; just hard not to miss, lol). Can't speak on the HDR aspect nor FreeSync since the graphics card in my PC doesn't support it (not really an issue for me since I use my big-screen TV for those matters). Toggled around with the PIP function (don't have a need for it, personally); the different screen sizes seem more than adequate. My only real quibble is the lack of individual memory presets for EACH terminal: having to constantly adjust picture settings when switching between the 2 HDMI inputs can be a bit annoying. Oh well; I'd still highly recommend this monitor to any/everyone who's interested.

Pretty nice
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I really like this monitor, even if it has no speakers (you can still plug them into the monitor), and the auto HDMI switching is essentially useless. Otherwise, it’s handsome and has a great picture.

A great value/quality combo
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.For the price, you're getting a great deal on a 4k monitor with bright, vibrant colors, solid HDR support, a relatively easy to navigate menu system (I'm not a huge fan of single button navigation, but it does the job), and more than enough ports. I use mine for work and gaming, and am more than satisfied with both. I should note that this is a 60hz monitor, so if you are an RPG/Adventure gamer (you don't need high refresh for those), then you'll be happy with this monitor.

Samsung 28" 4K UHD Monitor
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Samsung does NOT disappoint. This is my first 4K monitor and the picture quality is top notch! Samsung has consistent quality on all of their products. I love the simple menus, cord management, and build quality. The eye saver mode comes in handy for early morning or late night viewing, thus greatly reducing eye strain. I use this monitor for Work from Home running SOLIDWORKS CAD software and the image quality is perfect for this task. The price was just right too, always happy with pricing from Best Buy.

Solid entry-level 4K monitor
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought this for work for video editing, multitasking, and zoom meetings for use with an M1 MacBook Pro. Pros: The color reproduction looks good to my eyes and the clarity of images on it is excellent. It is 4K, which is why I got it for both video editing and future proofing. The pixels are almost to small to see with the naked eye. Cons: Text appears ever so slightly blurred on it but it is not a deal breaker and does not hurt my eyes. At 60hz Max this is not for gaming, but works fine for my needs. Off-center viewing loses color accuracy pretty quickly, but is not pronounced enough to be a privacy feature of the monitor. Overall: This is a solid entry-level 4K monitor for the price. Not amazing, but basically competent for what I purchased it to do.
