Customer Ratings & Reviews

Very happy with the monitor, makes a huge difference for work and ability to view multiple platforms at once. Attractive looking monitor and easy to manage/set-up.

Good for gaming but I hope the height is taller. Color is great, the monitor is new not like other retails they sent to me a return item. It should be equipped the remote.

Here is a very helpful YouTube video that covers everything about this monitor: - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iIzRS-dHPo4 The Samsung LC49HG90 CHG90 is an amazing gaming monitor with high end specs and a huge 49 inch curved screen. I bought this monitor on sale for $999 and it usually retails for $1,499 and it has a VA panel with a resolution of 3840 x 1080, 144hz refresh rate (you need to use a display port cable to achieve this), 1ms response time, freesync technology, HDR compatible, and it has the QLED technology. As far as how wobbly it is on your desk, I would say it's not really wobbly but at the same time it's not stable and it wobbles a little but that's not a huge complaint but just something to take note of. Now right off the bat, one thing that I really like about the Samsung LC49HG90 is the 49 inch curved screen. This actually covers the same territory as 2 27inch monitors with an aspect ratio of 16:9 and when you combine that with the curved design, it creates an immersive experience. So one of the areas where this monitor really shines is productivity. You can run multiple browsers and any other application and with such a large screen, it feels very organized and absolutely amazing having everything on one monitor, especially if you are trying to get work done. Also, you can do a PIP, Picture in Picture and game on one half of the monitor and run other applications on the other half. Video editing on the Samsung LC49HG90 CHG90 is amazing because you have everything stretched out and really easy to navigate and keep everything organized. If you are a content creator or do a lot of video editing, then you will love video editing on this monitor! One thing to note here is that if you watch a YouTube video full screen, it's going to display it as a 16:9 aspect ratio but that's not to say there are not any videos that display a 32:9 aspect ratio. Next what I really like about this monitor and is very impressive is the image quality. The colors look absolutely beautiful and it has great color reproduction and great color accuracy and the colors stay consistent when you view it from different angles. Now the reason why I said this is impressive is because this monitor has 1ms response time which only TN panels have. TN panels don't have the best color reproduction and color accuracy and when you view it from different angles, the colors look washed out and it can produce a yellowish tint. Now the way this monitor can achieve 1ms response time and have great colors at the same time is because the QLED technology allows VA based panels to achieve a TN-panel-level 1ms pixel response time. This is because the QLED technology basically uses LCD-panels lit by leds, but unlike regular LED displays, Samsung uses Quantom Dot nanoparticles, which basically produces great colors and lighting. Now I wouldn't say it the colors are just as good as an IPS panel, so if you're going to be photo editing and need sharp detail colors, then you might want to consider an IPS monitor but overall this as great colors and definitely very impressive! Gaming on this monitor is absolutely amazing! Now not all games support an aspect ratio of 32:9 and it will display a 16:9 aspect ratio instead but a lot of modern games do support it. So with this monitor, you have a 49 inch curved screen, 144hz refresh rate, 1ms response time, and the freesync technology, which helps eliminate screen tearing for a faster and smoother gameplay. If you have an AMD setup, you will be able to benefit more from the freesync technology. So with all of that combined, it creates such a cinematic gaming experience because when you sit back, there's so much to look at and the monitor covers more area in a game, which creates a competitive edge over the competition. When you add the 144hz and the freesynch technology, it creates such a smooth gameplay with no stuttering or screen tearing and if you're coming from a 60hz, you will notice a huge difference. So even though this monitor only has a 3840x1080 resolution, it really does makes up in a lot of other areas such as the large widescreen and high end specs. As far as HDR, High-Dynamic-Range in gaming, all that means is there are certain games that are compatible to utilize the HDR technology, which produces deeper blacks, higher contrast, and is brighter. As far as the hardware requirements, I would recommend a GTX 1080, 1080ti, and the cutoff would be a 1070 and with the 1070 you might want to lower the settings a little.

Worsk like a charm. It evan has the option to use two laptops at the same time with split screen. Easy to switch between computers, too.

This is the coolest monitor you can buy, curved is the way to go. Only think I didn’t like is it doesn’t have built in sound which is a bummer but you can always get side speakers.

What you see is what you get, this monitor is amazing, beautiful picture on a huge screen. My only complaint is that it doesn’t have any speakers built in.

This was a great monitor, unfortunately toooo big for my taste when I actually put it together and started to use it for the tasks I did. This would be great for a bigger desk too.

When working, this screen is breathtaking. It's HUGE and has a great picture. SADLY! After around a year it starts a defect that, in my opinion, makes it complete trash. I'm on my replacement screen and for the second time, near the same time frame as the last, it continuously comes out of sleep mode with thick discolored lines covering the screen. This issue has been identified on many occasions and many reviews but is obviously not something that has a fix or that samsung is willing to admit up to or do anything about. It's a massive issue that a huge amount of people have posted about and have confronted Samsung about but it is continuously replied back to with a statement of, "this is the first time to hear of this." It's not worth the money. Don't waster your money on a near guaranteed defective product with no actual support from it's manufacturer.

This monitor will transform your office or your gaming experience into reality. Super impressive graphics and for the office, it is like having 4 screens in one.

Since you can't find an Xbox series X anywhere I thought upping the kid's online gaming might suffice for Christmas. He absolutely loves it. It looks good in his room and it's great for gaming.

Be forewarned you need to have a good graphics card to really see the benefits of this monitor. I wish Samsung would have made this monitor 3840 x 2160 but it is 3840 x 1080. Nonetheless, it is fantastic.

Love this display. The colors are excellent. I did need to install the monitor drivers for everything to display correctly but it is very nice. The monitor also works perfectly with freesync.

Saw this at a business partner's house and had to have one. It helped with the multi-monitor mess. There is better technology- this basically consolidates 3 monitors into one.

It's a very nice monitor, not really sure if it's worth what the hubby paid for it though. Would be nice to get sound from it, unless I'm doing something wrong trying to figure it out.

Got a great deal on this open-box but it has a weird flickering problem (may just be my graphics card because it has stopped now). Awesome monitor though!

I do not use this for gaming. I use this as my everyday monitor. Wanted the extra space to view multiple things simultaneously. Works great. used this to replace two monitors and a docking station.

At first, I didn't like it. Now it's just awesome to be able to open everything I need on one screen. The widescreen is amazing. Screen quality is fantastic.

Bought this monitor since being sent to work from home and Love it. Not a fan of the stand as it consumes most of the desk space but still a great purchase.

Great for multitasking. For gaming stay away. The consoles don’t support the screen size. Graphics are stretched

The monitor is too big and heavy compare to others in the same class. Also I notice that the screen isn’t better than a much cheaper Viotek
