Huge Upgrade

Basically a smart tv or smart monitor. You can watch TV when you’re not gaming and play games from the monitor itself. It’s a big plus doubling as a smart tv because you can talk to it and tell it to turn on and off, tell me what other monitor has that feature. Really clear and vibrant colors. HDR isn’t the best so I don’t use it but could be used with the right settings. I upgraded from a 1080p Acer monitor so everything about this amazes me. Definitely worth the purchase.

All positive, easy install, great display. Two points to consider:
1. It's large, make sure you have a wide desk if you're going to use it as a monitor.
2. If you want to mount it, make sure you have a 200x200 vesa plate

This one start review is due to the monitors crappy tv-like software. Also this is basically a TV. Even the mounting on the back is like the ones on a TV and not the VESA standard for monitors like the one I have.
I have Zephyrus G14 with an RTX4060 (2023). The monitor software doesn't allow for simple input selection. It detects that it's a PC and an option similar to an APP like netflix appear. This is buggy.
My laptop would literally be sending signal and saying there's two monitors connected and the monitor itself would say that wasn't the case.
When I did get it working, changing any display settings on windows like HDR or changing from duplicate to extend to show 2nd monitor would again lead to the monitor not recognizing the laptop.
Worst still, the monitor would actually crash my laptop when inputted as 2nd monitor. Forcing me to do a manual restart of the device. There's no fix for this.
The only other review I found with this issue was on Amazon. The person on amazon decided to not mess with the settings and leave it be. That to me is unacceptable for the price I paid.
Saved up a little more and ended up getting the Odyssey Neo G8 since I really wanted MINILED and not OLED.
- Never faced any issues with the G8.
This is literallty a software issue from the crappy TV-LIKE features this screen offers. If you're using it as a TV for a PS5 and Streaming it's probably fine from what I've read.
But if you intend to use this as a monitor for a PC, I would not recommend it at a ll. It's ridiculous that Samsung NEVER fixed this.

If I could rate this zero stars, I would. I had the monitor for exactly 1 month and there are already dead pixels all over the screen. I first chatted in with BestBuy that these pixels had become numerous all over the monitor, they still advised they would not be able to provide support and sent me to the manufacturer. Samsung has been absolutely horrendous to work with, they advised someone would be out on 3/24 and instead, no one showed, no phone calls, nothing. I've not been able to get any straight answers to get my monitor fixed. Terrible product and service.

Amazing monitor for the price when on sale. It so bright and the hdr works very well for being a mini led va panel with only 300 plus zones. Minimal blooming and the va smear is very not noticeable during gameplay and media consumption. Theres moments you see it but its so minuscule and with operations that you do on the daily with a computer that it doesnt matter. The size is so impressive and the features it gives far exceeds most typical monitors. I would say this is more of a media tv than a monitor but the hybrid features of tv and monitor really makes it the best panel for a casual gamer. Note 2025 Software update helped it a lot.
Brightness - Perfect
Colors - Bright and vibrant
Motion - Above avg, Especially in game mode!
HDR - Hdr 600 is good enough and bright.
I really enjoy this monitor and really respect samsung for making nice niche products like this.
If your looking for a huge screen to chill and play I definitely recommend it. It might not have as perfect motion and little highlights as an oled but it does get considerably brighter accross the board in most scenes and the colors and contrast get super close. I have a 65 inch Lg Oled and the Odessey Neo G7 gets close really close to the over experience or better especially with vrr flicker the Lg panel is atrocious at that its more distracting than the non noticeable lag and smear people are so picky about. Try it out and you wont be disappointed especially when its less than half the price of an 32 inch 4k oled monitor or a 42 inch oled tv.

Quality control is atrocious. I received the monitor, which was packaged well, but when I took it out of the box and turned it on, the screen was apparently damaged, so it was sent out as a serviceable item.

Insane Size, Insane Quality — Ultimate Hybrid Moni

This thing is a beast — in the best way possible. The 43" screen makes everything feel cinematic, whether I’m gaming, streaming, or working. The 4K resolution is razor-sharp, and the HDR600 brings out deep blacks and vivid colors. It’s bright, fast, and surprisingly immersive for a flat panel.
As a gamer, the 144Hz refresh rate + 1ms response time with FreeSync Premium Pro makes everything buttery smooth. No screen tearing, no lag — just flawless performance. It also works great as a productivity screen — I can run 3–4 windows side by side like a boss.
It’s basically a TV-sized monitor with smart TV features built in (Samsung Tizen OS), so I can watch Netflix or YouTube without even turning on my PC. Super convenient.
Minor downside: it’s big — like really big — so make sure your desk can handle it. Also, the remote is handy, but the UI can feel sluggish sometimes.
Bottom line: if you want one screen to rule them all — gaming, work, movies — this monitor delivers. Pricey, yes. Worth it? 100%.

A great Monitor with the right approach

This is a monitor I am using for my PC. The settings listed require utilizing the settings on the Nvidia control panel. I was going to return after having it for almost 4 weeks. It is as people say, right out of the box it is not so good. It takes calibrating it for it to really shine. But I can say after calibrating it to what I think is a peak for this monitor, it can replicate OLED. There is blooming that occurs, but it’s not very noticeable in the long run considering no risk of burn in like an OLED. The quality of the screen is top notch and the local dimming is what helps create an OLED effect with these settings. I believe that you need to make sure you updated the firmware to version 1603 through the Samsung website. That version seems to not be available through the TV settings. The steps to update it are available on the site. I have a DisplayPort 2.1 cable that can do up to 16k resolution. Bought it on EBay. You also must make sure you play at 120hz as it completely minimizes the ghosting issues that were ultimately going to lead to me returning it. These pictures show how the screen is now.
I will list my settings below:
TV Game Settings:
Game Mode: On
Response Time: Faster
Dynamic Black Equalizer: 0
HDR: Off
Expert Settings:
Brightness: 5
Contrast: 0
Sharpness: 9
Color: 30
Tint: 0
Local Dimming: High
Contrast Enhancer: High
Color Tone: Standard
White Balance: No changes
Gamma 2.2
Shadow Detail: -5
Color Space: Custom
(From Red to Magenta set each value of RGB to 50)
VRR Control: On
NVIDIA Color Settings:
Brightness: 32
Contrast: 0
Gamma: 1.05
Digital Vibrance: 48
Hue: 0
In my NVIDIA 3D Settings, I set everything to off except:
Low Latency Mode: Ultra
Max Frame Rate: 117
G-Sync: On
(w/ windowed and fullscreen on and allow settings for this monitor set to on as well)
MFAA: On
OpenGL GDI compatibility: Prefer compatibility
Shader cache size: 10gb
Negative LOD Bias: Clamp
Texture Filtering - Quality: High Performance

The monitor has quite a few virtues like brightness, color and contrast. But it will be outweighed by the vices for many people. First of all the ghosting is real and it can be pretty bad depending on the settings and content. The monitor was also buggy for me. The signal would randomly die with display port or hdmi requiring a unplug and re-plug. The "screen off" function was also broken. One time it turned the image black and white requiring a hard factory reset to the get color back. I ultimately return it because of the bugs.

Great monitor to pair with my xbox series x, huge difference in playing competitive games comparted to a tv I've noticed. the only down fall is it takes some knowledge and playing with the settings to get the full capabilities out of the monitor. Id recommend hard wiring the monitor directly into the internet and also hard wire the x box directly into the internet to get the fastest best gaming experience. You will need to take the time with the settings on the xbox as well as the monitor settings to make sure you are getting the best possible frame rates and picture. once you have that figured out, perfect. the size is great, picture and speed is phenomenal. Not sure how anyone games on smaller 27 inch monitors,, 43 inches seems just right, not to big, but definitely not small.

This thing is huge. Great picture good for streaming TV and movies, good for games where screen real estate is desirable. I do have to wear my glasses to see to the edges :-) . Excellent refresh rate for shooters or heavy duty simulators like DCS.
Probably the only downside that’s not really a downside is it does require some calibration and configuration to get it to look how you want it to look. It actually took me a couple days of tweaking before I got it where I wanted it.

Very Good Value on sale. It does take a while to tune and set the colors, brightness, etc, correctly. When used with my computer the colors and brightness are more than enough for my use. I used a oled before and must say that this competes. The blacks are close enough that to me I don't mind. It gets brighter and the PC recognized the 144 hz right away. I keep it on game mode with response time set to faster (extreme dims the screen horribly) I would strongly recommend playing with the settings until you are satisfied. The ghosting levels for the use case that I do is not significant enough for it to really bother me. Overall I think this is a perfect all round pc/gaming monitor. I would only buy it on sell though.
Also I love the white on the back. I wish it was on display better, but alas most people will have it facing the wall like I do.
