Customer Ratings & Reviews

Amazing quality. Crisp and bright display. All you can ask for if you're a mid-level gamer. A great value, too.

I love this monitor! I chose this one when it was on sale and I don’t regret it at all. The image quality is perfect

This is a very good monitor nice blacks smooth video for gaming. The reason I didn't give it a 5 is text and sharp edges are fuzzy not really crisp. So if your main thing is games or just watching video than this is a good monitor for you.

Excellent monitor for a very good price. If you’re looking to buy a monitor after playing on a TV like I did, this is a very good upgrade.

The screen is amazing, good image quality and good build, easy to install and an amazing purchase overall

I love this monitor! I bought one for myself and a few of my friends/family! It looks and works amazingly!

Great monitor for the price!!! Very clean and sleek profile, especially if you’re building a dual monitor set up!!!

The monitor is excellent for my ps5 and exceed to my expectation

Performs as expected, but be aware it’s a multi-country “Best Buy” version, which may differ slightly from standard models. Registering the LS32FG51DENXZA model which Samsung requires adding a “K” to the serial number for registration. Warranty info won't display due to regional limitations. Resolving this involves navigating frustrating customer service, often dealing with unhelpful bots and outsourced support. Be persistent and provide a receipt (without PII), they can manually fix the warranty. Overall, the display is solid. Ensure your graphics card supports 180Hz for optimal performance. Time will tell how if it holds up.

Best quality for gaming I’m really enjoying this tv

Great quality, very happy with this product, have it for 2 months now and no issues

Wonderful monitor. Amazing graphics. No problems at all.

Amazing graphics especially if you wanna stream on TikTok or twitch

This Samsung G51F gaming monitor sits at a nice price-point where it provides a quality 32-inch gaming monitor at a budget price. The monitor ships with HDMI and DisplayPort cables and is easy to assemble while still in the box. The two-piece stand easily screws together and snaps into the back of the monitor. The most difficult part of the assembly was actually snapping the two plastic ornamental pieces around the stand mount on the back. The G51F is conservatively designed and doesn’t have any fancy RGB lighting. It can be used in more formal settings yet is stylish enough to fit nicely into any gaming setup. The matte panel is impressive in quality. It has good brightness and contrast with no light bleed, stuck pixels nor other flaws observed. The color skews on the warm side by default but can be tweaked to the user’s preference. Power and navigation are all controlled via the small joystick style button underneath the screen. There is one DisplayPort and two HDMI ports on the rear of the monitor. The adjustable panel can tilt, swivel, and rotate 90-degrees from landscape to portrait orientation. It can also be mounted using 100X100 M4 screws if preferred over using the included stand. I connected the monitor to a gaming PC running an RTX4050 GPU and was impressed by the performance. The G51F handled my gaming needs with no problem. The 180Hz refresh rate and 1ms response time kept action smooth when playing fast paced games with quick rendering like racing titles. I keep resolution set to the QHD max of 2560x1440 which renders crisp sharp graphics with clean edges. I initially encountered some noticeable screen tearing in games, but activating V-sync quickly took care of it and yielded clean mostly artifact-free graphics. I get an occasional flicker here and there but nothing lasting or bad enough to impact gaming. The monitor is AMD FreeSync compatible which may combat this even more on AMD GPUs, but it’s not a beneficial feature for me since I use an Nvidia GPU. I’ve already played several games with different lighting environments and effects. I've also played both day and night scenes to test how well the monitor renders blacks and dark scenes compared to brighter scenery. It handled the different challenges quite nicely. I’ll admit, I’ve become a bit biased towards gaming on OLED screens rather than LED screens when given the choice. The blacks and contrast aren’t as deep or rich looking on this VA panel as they are on my OLED screen, but still look pretty good and more than acceptable, especially with HDR10 active. Some people even find OLED too contrasty, so this may be perfect for them. There is also a black equalizer feature to further enhance blacks and dark scenes. I don’t currently use the virtual aiming feature, but it’s a nice to have feature if I ever need it. The monitor does not have built-in speakers, but like many gamers I prefer to use external speakers and headsets anyhow, so it isn’t a deal breaker for me. There really isn’t anything here that isn’t needed which is good because it means no unnecessary bloat to drive up the price. It’s a really good quality mid-range monitor at a budget price with good picture quality, screen size, features, and performance.

Works great! Comfortable screen for gaming recommend 10/10

It’s great but it’s starting to give me graphic problems flickering and glitching out

Great graphics great refresh speeds very easy set up.

Bigger than I expected but I still love it. the HZ is limited to 144 unlike what the box is listed as. It could be a separate setting but still good nonetheless.

For the discounted price I got it for, I would say it was well worth it.

This is a well-built and well-performing monitor, but it does have some curious design choices. First, as a gaming monitor, it does have a subtle gaming look, without being ugly or having useless RGB everywhere. So it still has a “gamer” look without being tacky. The display itself is a flat (not curved) 32” running 2560 x 1440, which is great for people who are running top-notch graphics cards. The stand is certainly solid enough, and gives a full range of height and tilt adjustment, as well as allowing the display to be put into a portrait mode, which is useful for some people. But you can tell that this monitor was built down to a price point, as we will see. The first thing to note is that this monitor uses a separate power supply brick, instead of having an IEC power jack (for a 120V cable) in the back. This can increase cable clutter, so might be a deal-breaker for some, but no big deal for others. The power brick is not that big, but you will have to find a place to stick it. Also, the bottom bezel looks like it has a place for a couple for speakers, but none are installed. The monitor does have an audio jack for adding your own speakers, but only one jack. You can plug in headphones or speakers, but not both. Since the audio jack is on the bottom next to the power and video input connectors, getting to it to change audio devices is not exactly convenient. Speaking of jacks, the input consists of two HDMI, and one DisplayPort. There is NO option for USB-C input, and no built-in USB hub at all, so this might not be the best choice for docking a laptop. All controls are via a small joystick on the bottom of the display. The controls were easy enough to use, as was the menu system. The first thing that I tried to do was to get the high refresh rate working. Simply stated, Windows would not allow me to increase the refresh rate and still maintain the 2560 x 1440 resolution, which I thought was curious. As it turns out, you need to go into the menu setting and ENABLE the higher refresh rates (or enable AMD Free-Sync), in order to get it to work. I have no idea why enabling a higher refresh rate is not the default, but it is easy to fix once you know about it. Using HDMI, I was able to get Windows 11 to output at 144 Hz. I could not get 165 Hz, but that might require using DisplayPort, which my laptop doesn’t support. But the 144 Hz mode does look good, and the panel is certainly fast enough. The next feature is HDR. This monitor claims “HDR10” which is not that meaningful of a standard to support. According to the manufacturer, this monitor only provides a brightness of 300 nits, which is not enough to fully support a real HDR image. Still, when viewing HDR content, it did look good, just not eye-poppingly bright. I could also see no signs of local dimming, but that is not expected in this price range. So, does it really support HDR? The answer is “sort of.” If you really want HDR, then look for something with “DisplayHDR400” certification, but that will most likely cost more. The final feature is the “virtual aim point” which will put a crosshair on the display. There are several styles and colors to choose from. Since I am more of an RPG player, this is not useful to me, but this will be useful for people who play FPS titles that don’t have aiming built it. So, there are a couple of drawbacks. Does that make this a bad monitor? Not at all! This is a GREAT monitor that I would happily use. A couple of corners have been cut as far as features, but the features that is does have are implemented well. It all comes down to price. This is a flat, 2560 x 1440, 300 nit monitor without a USB hub or built-in speakers. If this meets your needs and the price is good, then this would be a fantastic choice. The only reason not to buy this monitor is if you need a feature that is not offered here, or you find something comparable for a far cheaper price. Samsung does make great quality products, and this is no exception, but they did have to drop some specs to hit the price.
