Customer Ratings & Reviews

I have an older Samsung widescreen monitor I am coming from. There are some nice updates and overall this is a solid monitor for work and gaming. On the business side, I used to run a dual monitor setup. Having a super wide monitor makes workflow so much easier owner dual monitors. Unless you had 2 of the exact same monitor I always had issues with moving data from One screen to the other. I can run to full screens side by side.i have run one full page on one side and 2 apps on top of each other on the other side of the monitor. There is no included webcam. The connections on the back are much better than previous monitors. We had to squeeze the cables into a tiny port area. Now we have much better access to the ports. I think the backlight is good. O can’t say I totally notice it when playing a game. For gaming the super wide screen can be good or bad. For steam games, having the super wide monitor does not seem to distort the graphics. I still have a great picture. I have noticed some native games don’t like the wide screen and you may need to play in a single pane on your monitor and not use the full screen. My refresh rate is good, no lag. I am using a GeForce RTX 3080 One complaint. Same as previous versions of this. The monitor will randomly shut off. It may flicker. It has even tripped the computer to reboot

Let's start with cons first, of which there are a few. - No speaker but includes 3.5mm jack input. However, 3.5mm doesn't really work when I used my headphone. - 3.5mm, perhaps 2nd one, should probably be placed in front of monitor but location is right in the back next to DP, HDMI, other plugs. - Auto Source Switch+ doesn't work. Some reviews claim it is a firmware issue. I just know it doesn't switch between laptop and desktop only when one is on, when trying one or the other. - This leads to having to use physical button daily. For work with laptop, gaming with desktop, one would have to constantly use button and if button stops working from daily use, this ends up being a bad investment. So, I would recommend getting DP or HDMI switch. These cons aren't deal breaker enough for me to justify returning/exchanging right now. I do plan on getting DP or HDMI switch that can handle hi rez, hi refresh rates to mitigate the auto switching issue. Pro (so far) - Wonderful 5K2K resolution, making viewing real estate much better for remote work and gaming - 120hz to 180hz frame rate, where I used to play with just 60hz. This increased rate makes overall PC and gaming experience way more pleasant. - One of the more affordable 5K2K major brand monitors that exist on market right now - Very light for its size, which I believe is less than 20lb, making it a good option to use monitor arm mount. - Picture in Picture option: allows one to use two sources at once - 1000R curvature: That to me a sweet spot compared to a more aggressive 800R curvature.

Great monitor perfect size. The brightness is great and the ratio going up to the 5120 helps with images not seeming stretched.

Excellent monitor. I use it for gaming and for work. Obviously does brilliant for gaming with the high refresh rate and 4K resolution, as well as the screen size. Also does great for work as the screen is big enough to have 4 tabs open, which is very helpful as someone who writes code.

Awesome Monitor!. Great color high refresh rate, size was perfect for my setup

This screen is so nice. Its curved and high refresh rate. I noticed a difference from my old screen immediately.

Crisp text, vivid colours, and fantastic motion handling. It almost feels like an IPS screen; the curve might feel intense, but it is very usable and does not bother you. Having used IPS displays all my life, I was hesitant to go with a VA panel, but so far I have not faced any of the typical VA issues apart from the narrow viewing angle, but that really doesn't affect the day-to-day unless you have someone sitting/standing next to you to view the screen.

Exellent monitor, I was alittle iffy at first with a washout issue since it was a floor model but after speaking with samsung support the issue was the firmware was out of date and brought the color right back to what i would expect. Clean crisp and i love picture and size on it

Amazing quality, refresh rate, and appearance overall. Highly recommend.

Great monitor -- 5120x2160 pixels allows me to have 4 documents open and visible on my desktop, which is great for my productivity. I had to upgrade my GPU in order to get this full resolution. The monitor was easy to set up, I just attached the display to the base and plugged in my DisplayPort cable. The height is adjustable.

Overall I've been very happy with this as a productivity/software dev monitor with my Macbook Pro M4 Max. I tried to use an OLED and the subpixel layout really bothered me—text was not clear. This VA panel, however, has been great. It's not quite the same as an IPS panel but definitely usable and not distracting like the OLED was. I love the extra real estate the extra width gives me. I used to be a die-hard 4k guy, but I'm now sold on this resolution (or wider!) for productivity. I have not played games on this monitor so I can't comment on that.

I was picking between this and the LG 45" OLED monitor. While that monitor was superior in color, I compared it with this and this won in pixel density. I cannot get past that in 2026, I would get reminded of a CRT monitor because of visible pixels so I picked this. I am glad I did. Colors are awesome and no regrets whatsoever!

Bought this as an "Open Box-Excellent". Great price, absolutely like new condition and just waht the doctor ordered. I bought it to replace a Samsung 32" mounted on an arm above my Samsung 57" which are both between two Samung ARK 55". The larger display of the 40" fills the visual space musch better essentially allowing two 27" screens rather than the single 32" and with the 4k resolution it does not disappoint!

This monitor has good resolution 5kx2k with but the screen is not has clear as the OLED neeones . Unfortunately this ia the only size i was able to afford at thia time. Im satisfied along wotj the desktoo computet cpu i bought. This is enough for my daughter's gaming needs.

Grabbed two of these during the 45% sale. Better app management than three 32" monitors. Love the high frames. Hard to find 4k monitors with high frames without burning a hole in my wallet.

Got this to replace a dead (much smaller) monitor. Glad I went with the curved 40"; getting much more done with the screen landscape.

this Monitor would be perfection if it had smart capacity and a remote control, it like a 5k display, very bright

Zero complaints, it is exactly what you think it is, the monitor has great colors and resolution. Only small critique is that the blacks are not as deep as my second monitor. I may have to mess around more with the settings to dial it in perfectly. I also got this on a best buy sale so it made this a no brainer to pick up.

Fantastic purchase for the price if you are looking for an ultrawide, this has all the capabilities as the HUGE monitors but for half the price.

this monitor is the best monitor i have ever used. it is so clear and just overall great
