Customer Ratings & Reviews

I bought the Samsung monitor to go with my Mac Mini which I bought here a while back. It's a nice monitor overall. There are a few things that are just not right for me and the way I use it. I can't call them defects because nothing is wrong with it. I am finding out that the ultra wide format is not ideal for my situation. The color and resolution are good. I have it in a room that has low ambient light, so at times I found that the black is not as good as my LG OLED tv in the same room. Maybe that's the problem. Nothing but an OLED looks like one. That's what I'm used to seeing. LED IPS screens don't have the silky blacks that OLED has. The brightness is excellent but sometimes I see light leakage around the screen in a dark room. I'll probably keep it for a while and sell it used to get something nicer and more expensive. Samsung is excellent for what I paid and the next step up is a big one.

The best monitor for the money hands down! this replaced my 27" monitor the pictire is better clearer and sharper and more vibrant!

Excellent visuals, excellent out of the box calibration. Samsung has a reputation for good products but this one took the cake with it’s HDR and freesync at 100hz.

The Samsung ViewFinity S5 is a great monitor like most of their other monitors. It possess the same great build quality and minimalistic/clean look. The only problem I have with it is that it is a little too minimalist for me. Although it is not a smart monitor, it should not be this "dumb". It seems to be missing many of Samsungs great features that are on other monitors, like the Dynamic Picture mode, where the display alters the brightness and color "warmness/coldness." Plus the control's built into the monitor can be difficult and uncomfortable. Making me constantly leave the monitor on the brightest and sharpest setting, which I can not use very well during the night. So I find myself having to fiddle with the display settings everytime I wish to play or work when I get home.

It was easy to set up. Colors are crisp and clear. The screen does have a considerable amount of glare. The screen does not seem to want to stay level. It is doing the job to replace a two monitor system at work. It is certainly big enough for any spreadsheet you might work on.

amazing loved it! recommend screen is perfect and greta brightness

The wide monitor was used to replace two individual monitors, I am now able to work in side-by-side windows and have all the font and graphics match up.

what an amazing and incredible monitor. It really has changed my homework time and my grades are proof

Gets the job done. Great quality l. No dead pixels / or bleeding. Use it for work and got rid of the clutter by getting rid of 2 monitors for the one. Would have liked to have more height adjustment. Had to get a riser / stand to put it on.

Really dig this screen, I have three of them, two for home one for work. No problems with any of them

fairly decent graphics but the whole screen is tilted down and there is no way to adjust it to be completely eye level

I purchased this monitor to replace a smaller one, and to not have to use my laptop (which is small) as a "dual" setup. The ultrawide enables "tiling". Some apps or programs don't really need to be opened full size, and tiling them on one ultrawide screen is the way to go!

great budget work monitor, 4* because the stand is fixed.

Bought this for my boyfriend, and he loves how good it looks. He's never going back to non ultrawide monitors. BG3 looks amazing on it btw compared to my 24in monitor

Love this monitor for multitasking. Great value for the price!

Great monitor picture looks great and enough room to have 2 windows side by side.

Great quality monitor. Especially given the price when I use it for for majority business purposes...cant beat that!

Very nice monitor for the price. The discount for the open box was sufficient to allow me to buy the 4 year replacement warranty which was very nice. Only downside was there are no USB ports, which I didn't expect at this price point.

It has been great for my purpose- being able to have multiple windows open side by side without having to have multiple monitors!

For the price it's not a bad deal.. so far so good..I would recommend this product if you are a gamer or a business owner. Great quality..and buy the geek quad bundle and you will be set..
