    Great panel, absolute terrible OS integration

    I give 1 star because honestly the panel is 5 stars. But oh my gosh the Tizen OS on this thing is less than 1 star. It's hot garbage. It constantly lags when you're using it, especially if you try to use any voice commands, the whole OS freezes for 30-60 seconds before rapidly catching up to your inputs. For whatever godforsaken reason the monitor has no way to switch inputs besides going through the smart menus. The remote it comes with does not have an input button. And who is using any of the smart apps on a monitor? You're using a computer with a monitor or a console. Both of which have much better choices and work with waaaaay less lag than any of the built in apps. You also cannot switch inputs unless the input is detected by the monitor. But what happens if your monitor doesn't detect that input, even if it's working? Well, you better hope you're already on the correct input. And then, because it doesn't detect, it has a built in power off feature. While gaming, it will just turn itself off after a couple hours. Then, because it has trouble with detection, when I turn off my PC, it is supposed to go into standby/power off after 60 seconds. Well, it stays on all night if I don't manually turn it off because the 60 second timer never counts down. It also never turns on when I turn on one of my inputs and I have to manually turn it on. Finally, it only has 1 displayport and 1 HDMI input. So good luck. Obviously some out of touch corporate and marketing gurus won on the design over actual engineers for this one. Do not buy this at full price and only use it with 1 input. Do better Samsung.

    The image on this monitor is very good when running smoothly. Occasionally, a black screen appears and the computer simply stops displaying video. It flickers when loading a program or game. Having a second monitor is a nightmare, and the (smart) software included with the monitor is slow and impractical. I have an Nvidia 4090 and feel like this monitor is a bottleneck. I wouldn't recommend it, especially at this price.

    Great motion and colors. The brightness is fine with closed blinds, but running it in the dark is the best as the colors can really shine. Mine has great build quality and the base is quite small.

    Very good monitor; it adapts very well to perform many tasks at the same time. Sometimes, for games like LOL, the sound goes to the laptop instead of the monitor, and you have to go in and out to fit in well.

    worst monitor in hostory of monitors

    terrible terrible not even a monitor, as this is really a smart TV category now! I had G9 LCD form 2019 version and i loved it, good for eyes good quality all works well , this version OLE G9 2023 release is junk 1st its doe snot keep settings all settings u make will get wiped on power off, 2nd its not monitor you would expect its a smart TV so guess what it has Office 360, netflix, YouTube disnay plus WOW really? PC a monitor if i want to doe spreadsheet or type word doc i boot my PC and work there, if i can but $1700 i can probably afford PC for it! why to destroy product with unnecessary features! And because those features come form TV line now u have remote which guess what has all features smart TV needs but does not even have Settings or Source button which could be more appropriate for PC monitor, why sumsung wants to be so cheap. now image quolity: this is worst OLED matrix i had in my life, and it does not make sense, as i ahve othe OLED low res made my samsung and they are better, my guess as firmware optimized for TV they ignored other uses and messed up settings. If you plan to do graphics editing dont even look at this monitor unless you have nerves to tune custom color profiles and i mean tune tune with spectrometer! I have spectrometer (what a coincidence) but as settings are not retained this is useless. Hint: Red is way off. Red itnetncity is at least double of other colors, which is notmal for LED as red is usually brighter but emm does't samsung knows about it? or they just dont care? next refresh rate. 240Hz NICE! but ops thats signal one guess what lower ur brightens LEDs go into PWM and screen flikers, heavy load on eyes making u go nearly blind if try to read. So only option to use max brightness will ok untill u work at night. not enough problems? no boot up unless u unplug cable and plug it back, need to physically take DP out and plug it back on each PC reboot. Some forum users sudjets HDMI but its slower, im testing HDMI now need more problems, it has smart game mode, every time PC starts game mode turens on and not possible to rturn it off unless u use remote and go to not user friendly menu and turn it off. Or you look st game mode menu on boot then you look at game center menu then menu that reminds u that samsung did not have money to mae settings buttons to Home button on remote is actually a setting then once more thta screen to reinforec that ou got it and then you can use your PC and monitors. Total boot time with menu clicking 3 minutes... To make you happy ecen more there blue screen when you turn off pc so yea PC is okff but screen does not go off it will remind you that its a smat screen you can use ur remote to open all those cool apps. .... anfortunatly i missed my return window so despite the cost this jink monitor goes exactly where it belongs ... in dumpster, I will either dig out my 2019 version or go see what LG has to offer (or whatever other brand) no more faith in smasung... whats next fridge with netflix? i mean i have LG styler clothet with wifi but it does not kill main goal of that device ...

    This is not a monitor for everyone. The desk space it requires is substantial and not every game supports the full screen of this monitor. I find the built in apps annoying as it's also a full Samsung Smart TV as well as PC monitor. Overall, it's gorgeous, it's fast and it does what it's designed for. Make games look vivid and provide a view that is immersive for games you play. If you want a monitor arm that will hold this up be prepared to drop about 300-400$ as the Ergotron monitor arm with the heavy duty addon for another 100$ is the only thing that will dependably hold it or at least was when I made the purchase initially.

    1440 ultrawide gaming is basically just under 4k, and I believe the tradeoff in resolution for screen coverage is worth it for this OLED display. As it stands, it's the best monitor money can buy. Once you go ultrawide it's very difficult to go back!
