When I bought this monitor I had pretty tame expectations. It was $50 dollars off and to find a 4k monitor that cheap seemed like a seal. Unfortunately my biggest gripe with this monitor is that its not very bright. I used it with my M1 Pro Macbook via USB Type-C to display port. And immediately I saw the lack of brightness as an issue. Now I did not expect The best Display for the price. But its so dull that Text is hard to read and Video tends to distort towards either red or blue. And the Settings make it impossible to display correctly. I will be returning the monitor for something a bit more bright. Hopefully this helps. Also to add, the speakers would never work. Via HDMI or Display port. Had to use external speakers or My mac speakers.

I used to use a 40" 1080p TV for my computer, switched it out with this monitor. While the TV was brighter, this has better resolution as I can see what my old GTX 1660 super can do. It does exactly what I expected of it and nothing more or less. It's a good monitor.

The 32" Viewfinity is a gorgeous monitor.... When it actually works correctly.
Samsung delivered on a 4k image, the monitor out of the box is too dark but with some tinkering in the monitors settings the brightness can be fixed delivering a much better image.
Where this monitor has its problems is everywhere else. The monitor has a hard time displaying varying degrees of color. Something typically seen in movies or if you are using a windowed tab. When this scenario is presented the monitor starts to flicker the image doesn't flicker but the brightness does. It gets worse with more contrasting images are on the screen.
The other issue is this monitor doesn't like going to sleep and when it does it has a hard time waking up. Using the display with my Mac mini M1 on the Display port and a PS5 on the HDMI port. I noticed when both devices are in rest mode/sleep, the monitor keeps trying to detect a device connected saying it will shut off in 3 seconds if nothing is detected. The monitor does shut off, and turns back on a while after that threatening once again that if nothing is detected it will turn back off.
Eventually it does turn off, when you come back maybe the next day the monitor input (buttons) are unresponsive. I found myself often having to mash the power button really fast like a Quick time event on a game. Sometimes it would turn on and immediately shut off not detecting that the device it was connected to was already on.
Due to those headaches I can't recommend this monitor. Especially for the price it's currently listed at. I got a pretty sweet deal on this monitor $200.00 Flat so Im keeping it for now. Adding on the fact that it only has 1 HDMI port, 1 Display port connection and no other inputs this monitor is outdated and a mess to deal with.
Only buy this open box, on a deep sale. Otherwise save another $200$ and purchase the Samsung M8, just be cautious as there are multiple versions of that monitor and they're all around the same price. Do your research.

Excellent 4K monitor utilized with Displayport. Fast response, great contrast range and excellent color accuracy. Very thin profile. This was an upgrade from a 1080 (2k) monitor and have I not been disappointed. Note this monitor does not have audio built in.

Actually works better than advertised. Very inexpensive monitor. Only thing it takes a bit of tweaking, at least when one pairs it with a late 2021 MacBook Pro.
Some have commented about the switches located lower middle. Kind of agree with them but only had to use them during set up, haven't had a need to touch them again.

Works, but dark on DP and "nag screen" when not 4K

I'm marking this down for two big reasons:
1. The nag screen. When I plug this monitor in to my XBox and other hardware running at 1080P, the monitor complains about the resolution. Every time I switch inputs or turn the monitor on, it spends 30 seconds trying to tell me my device has the wrong resolution.
There doesn't seem to be any way to turn this off, and this is NOT the Windows warning: I get the same screen on my XBox, MiSTer, NUC, OTA TV tuner, Nintendo Switch, OSSC box... you get the idea.
It's also DARK. When using HDMI mode, I can turn off the "Eco" display, but that option is not available on DisplayPort mode, so it's much darker than the LG monitor it's sitting next to.
Between these two issues: the "can't disabler" nag screen and the dark display, I'm returning this monitor as soon as I can get a different monitor for my gaming setup.
