Great screen but glitches and software make bad
||Posted . Owned for 5 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This product could have been so great.....I hear they fixed a lot of the issues with the later models...but there is really no reason to buy this monitor over the MSI 49C1QPX...

Misses the mark
||Posted . Owned for 10 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.A lot of potential with this monitor but unfortunately misses the mark. From flickering screen, black screens when quitting apps, and slow response from UI it is overpriced and a finished product

Disappointing Monitor
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I usually don’t leave reviews, but this monitor is too expensive to just write off the loss. I had it for about a year and a half before the screen went completely black. The monitor was used under normal circumstances in my home office. No humidity, air conditioned, well kept. It’s unacceptable that a product in this price range fails in under 24 months. Very disappointing. I have 2 Samsung products in my house that have served me well for over 10 years. I was hoping this one would be held to the same standard.

Avoid at all cost.
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have bought this monitor on 4 separate occasions, each time it has been plagued with issues, turns off and on randomly, will not stay connected to my pc, flickers on and off randomly. I have tried numerous different display port and hdmi cables as well as other workarounds with no luck. I will not be buying another samsung display of any type. LG dominates this space, and for monitors the Dell/Alienware cannot be beat.

expensive Junk
||Posted . Owned for 5 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.My 1st computer was an IBM 386 back in the 80's. Let me say without doubt this is the poorest monitor I have owned since then. Black screen , try to install two monitors, black screen. Google G95sc and see all the issues with this monitor, Before you buy this boat anchor. In defense, when it works it is beautiful screen, when it works.

Phenomenal Monitor.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Awesome monitor! Avoiding the multiple window switching for work. Gaming is so different, the peripheral view is insane.
I would recommend this to a friendGood monitor!
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Pretty good, just to big for me. Very clean black color.
I would recommend this to a friendDo not buy
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I Wish I could give this product 0 stars, but unfortunately that's not an option. Upon unboxing this monitor, I noticed micro scratches on the screen, but they didn't show up when the screen was backlit, so I decided to live with it. This was a mistake, Little did I know you can so much as look at these QD-oled glossy screens and they will scratch. As the days went on more and more scratches became noticable and at and a particular point half the screen is covered in micro scratches. If you dare contact Samsung support they will say that you physically damaged the monitor and that it is no longer under warranty for even hardware issues, such as a broken displayport (as it is broken and mine and is a common complaint online about this monitor). You can read other reviews here about the flickering screen image when you choose to use displayport. Do not buy this, it is not worth the money. Buy a WOLED or other monitor that is not Samsung manufactured or qd-oled technology.

Quality Issues
||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The screen looked great for about 20 days. On day 21 the screen started to flicker when working, requiring unplugging and plugging back in. This would last about two hours and it would start flickering again. Tried changing cables, socks, and computers to no avail. I just do not have luck with Samsung products.
