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.

    I loved the 4k resolution, and great monitor. I used it mainly for editing, but the audio jack and speakers both went out within 3 weeks. Fortunately best buy here always has good customer service and it fell within the return date so I could exchange it.

    Love this monitor. Purchased specifically for the Ps 5 gaming console. It’s perfect and beautiful. A little dim at first, however after adjusting brightness on monitor and games, I love it a lot.

    I recently purchased a Mac mini (latest version) and then purchased a Samsung 1080p monitor to accompany it. The monitor wasn't bad but text and other things were not clear so I decided to upgrade to a 4K monitor. I was happy with the Samsung brand so I snatched this one up before it went out of stock. This monitor is AMAZING. Crisp, clear text and the monitor tilts! I am extremely happy that I picked this one over the other option that was in stock which was a LG 4K monitor in white. I wanted something sleek to match my space gray Mac mini, keyboard mouse and speakers. Really a terrific choice!

    I had high expectations for this product - first 4K experience, coming from a 1080P Samsung 32" curved monitor. Aesthetically, the monitor looks very nice. My main gripe is interacting with the monitor. Firstly, there is one button that controls the power and menu using directional movement. The button does not register well - sometimes if you press the button the monitor does not turn on. Not a good sign for a button that will be used a lot. Secondly, there is a lot of difficulty switching between inputs, as other reviewers have also mentioned. There is no ability to choose a specific input, so in order to change inputs the monitor will cycle through until it finds a signal. This also means when you turn off one of the inputted devices, once the monitor loses the signal it will cycle through the other inputs. If it does not find one, then it will go into sleep mode. In order to turn it off, you then need to turn it on and then off again. I can't imagine how difficulty there is when choosing inputs for PIP or PBP. I don't have the technical expertise to comment on the unit's performance, but the user experience with this monitor is not great. While it bears the Samsung name, this product could be improved on and brought up to the standard that one would expect from Samsung. My return window has expired, so unfortunately I am stuck with this monitor.

    I bought two of these for everyday use. The display is really good and a huge upgrade to my previous dual, 1080P monitors. They were fairly priced too! So far, every Samsung monitor/tv I've purchased have treated me well.

    The stand is useless since it can’t rotate or tilt and the plugs will cause problems with certain hdmi cords. It’s a pain the plug them in.

    Some loss of sharpness around the edges, which is more noticeable when sitting right next to a MacBook Retina display. Overall a capable monitor at a good price.

    Since there's limited affordable monitor options for ps5 users doing 4k at 120hz. I decided to buy this monitor for rpgs to supplement my asus tuf gaming 144hz. It looks better than a TV ever would, but...I think after using the monitor for a couple of days I would have been better off saving for a capable monitor once there is one more affordable that can do it. Im actually quite astonished at how good 1080 looks on the asus and while this one has 4k and hdr. I wasn't missing out on much. IF I didn't have rebursement for office equipment I might return this monitor. Perfect for games like cyberpunk and sports games, if you play shooters at all just forget it. Overall it does good at what it its intended for, good picture. There's is blur and the glare can be bad if you aren't in a dark room.

    UHD renders text crisply, but lacks speakers

    Great monitor so far, but be aware it does not have built-in speakers, so you'll need either external speakers or to use your laptop's. I am a software developer. I tried a 32" monitor for a while, but found the top was too high and I'd have to look up unnaturally to see the top of the screen, so I went back down to 28", which seems like the perfect size for working at a desk. I've also tried cheaper lower-res QHD screens and found them to be a bit blurry for working with text all day on a 28"+ screen. For 28"+ monitor UHD is essential for sharp, crisp text. This monitor works great with both my work Macbook Pro and personal MacbookAir. Only downside is it doesn't have speakers built-in.
