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.

Outstanding monitor
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The monitor was very easy to install and it works well with both my MacBook Pro and my Lenovo. The images are uniformly sharp and the colors are clear and bright. It is one of the best monitors I have used.

Perfect home monitor
||Posted . Owned for 7 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.As I had to use my two monitors for the new laptop for work at home, I needed new monitor for home computer. I've been a fan of LG IPS monitors for 10+ years, but I could not find a LG with 27+ inch 4K IPS monitor within the budget at that time. This Samsung was an alternative. However, I love it so far. It is large enough for split screen. It provides high quality view for watching Netflix.

A great value at a reasonable price
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great monitor for work. Not recommended for gaming but I use 2 of these in my setup and they are great for typical office work and somewhat good for creative work like photo editing.

Beautiful picture, but with design flaws
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought this on sale to use as a second monitor for my MacBook. 4K is crisp and pretty and for the sale price, I felt it was a great buy. The *only* things I dislike about the monitor is the circle back and the large stand. I don't understand why they chose this design. Because the large stand took up so much room on my desk, I wanted to mount it. However, due to the circle back, it's a 75x75 vesa only and mounting it is difficult- not impossible, but difficult. I bought a 75x75/100x100 desk mount and it's not a perfect fit but it did work. For these two reasons, I took a star off- otherwise, it would've easily been 5 stars. Nonetheless, the picture is beautiful and I'm pleased with my purchase overall.

Super, Bright and Eye Pleasing Monitor
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I LOVE THID DISPLAY!! Easy connection with a modern machine. All items for use are included. This is a large, clear display dripping in accurate color. So pleased with this 28 inch monitor. I solidly recommend this monitor to photo editing, and to any other use. Text is SHARP and near surprising to what I had been using. Only con, and this is with all mentors, the tiny adjustment toggles make it a bit hard to adjust (if needed, it's very good out of the box). I recommend this

Laughable VESA mount.
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I own a LOT of Samsung consumer electronics including a Refrigerator, Dishwasher, numerous cell phones and no less than 4 Samsung 4K monitors including this Viewfinity 28" 4K. I purchased this monitor to use for my work computer that previously had a 19" HD monitor on a monitor arm. Well the hope was to get some more screen resolution and mount this Samsung on the VESA monitor arm. Unfortunately Samsung was asleep at the wheel on this particular monitor, especially (as others have stated) the VESA mount. It requires special screws (M4 L14mm?) with spacers (or skill with a grinder!) since all commercial VESA mounts accommodate both 75 and 100mm mounting holes. The 100mm mounting holes interfere with the casing on the monitor, which is extremely annoying. Even if you solve that conundrum with longer M4 screws and spacers or the aforementioned grinder, the VESA mounting holes are offset from the center of the bank of the monitor itself which makes the monitor hang lower than most others. This is also pretty annoying when the whole purpose of a monitor arm is to get the monitor up off your desk and at a higher level. Samsung really dropped the ball on this one. This is not an insignificant design flaw and the biggest reason for the 3 out of 5 rating.

Glad I bought this monitor
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I wanted a higher resolution monitor for my MacMini M1 but didn't want to spend the crazy $$ for an Apple display. Researched quite a few 4k monitors for a couple weeks and landed on this one. Hemmed and hawwed a bit until the discount popped up and then bit the lure. Anyway, I was a bit concerned about how well the Mac would scale the text and such, but this turned out to be baseless. The scaling is near perfect and I can't see any issues with font blurring, etc. Having this much real-estate for a computer monitor is AMAZING. I can have so many different apps and windows open now.

28 Inch 4K monitor review
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.28 inch 4K screen provides crisper images than my old 27 inch 1080p monitors. It is running next to a Samsung UJ59 32 inch 4K monitor which together make my productivity much higher. The only reason I want the 4k capability is to periodically edit some 4k video for my wife an see wants to see what it looks like in 4k. I do notice a little difference between the 32 and 28 4K screens. The 28 is a little sharper image and a little deeper color. I attribute that to one of two reasons. The image is spread over a larger area or I am running it through a j5Create triple display docking station with 2 HDMI ports and the Microsoft display operating systems assigns them two different device drivers.

Excellent 4k monitor for under 200.
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Pocked up one of these 28 inch monitors on sale. Great display for the money! My tip is make sure you use a cable that can handle 4k bandwidth. I found out the fun way. If you have a display port to display port cable, you're good. I had a dp to hdmi converter that limited the bandwith to 1080p. It does come with a hdmi 2.1 cable that works great as long as you dont use an adapter.

Great matte finish & 4K resolution- horrid stand
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The specs on this monitor are great. 4K, matte finish, good colors, thin bezels, etc. But the stand is horrible. I've got a monitor stand for placing the monitor at a comfortable height and the stand extends off the sides of every stand I've found. My standing desk doesn't lend itself to a VESA stand, so I'm stuck using a stand that doesn't fully support the massive legs on this thing. It's like somebody decided that a Cylon Basestar makes a good monitor stand. The monitor base stand is roughly 18.5" across, while the monitor is about 25" across. That's about 3/4 as wide for a stand... bonkers.
