I recently purchased this and have been absolutely thrilled with the experience. As someone who isn't very tech-savvy, I would like to share a few tips for those who might be in the same boat. First Impressions: Okay, so the box and the setup and operations instructions were questionable. I guess this must have come from a third-party seller because Samsung could NEVER. However, out of the box, the monitor is a beauty. The screen is expansive, and the design is sleek and modern. It's perfect for my home office setup, surrounded by my plants and cozy decor. The ultrawide aspect ratio is a game-changer for productivity and gaming alike. Resolution Setup: Initially, I struggled to get the monitor to display its maximum resolution of 3440 x 1440. After some research and a bit of trial and error, I discovered that the secret lies in using a USB-C connection. If you’re like me and not too familiar with these things, here’s a simple guide: Check Your Cables: The monitor comes with an assortment of cables, including HDMI, DisplayPort, and USB-C. Make sure you're using the USB-C cable that supports video output. Not all USB-C cables are created equal, and some only support charging. Right Cable Choice: After downloading various programs to change my resolution and having no luck, I realized the provided USB-C cable (often referred to as a "lightning cable") was actually the fix. Switching to this cable instantly solved my resolution issues. Update Drivers: Ensure your graphics card drivers are up to date. This can often solve resolution issues. Adjust Settings: Go to your computer’s display settings. Under “Display Resolution,” select 3440 x 1440. If this option isn’t available, reconnect your USB-C cable and restart your computer. Performance: Once I got the resolution sorted, the display was breathtaking. The colors are vibrant, and the extra screen real estate makes multitasking a breeze. For gaming, the high resolution and refresh rate provide an immersive experience. I’ve also found it fantastic for video editing and other creative tasks, where the detailed visuals make a significant difference. Extra Features: The monitor comes with a few extras that are worth mentioning. The built-in blue light filter is excellent for long work sessions, and the customizable settings allow you to tweak the display to your liking. Conclusion: Overall, I highly recommend this monitor. It’s a fantastic investment for anyone looking to enhance their workspace or gaming setup. If you’re struggling with getting the correct resolution, remember to use the USB-C cable that comes with the monitor and keep your drivers updated. This monitor is worth every penny, and the setup is a minor hurdle for the massive benefits it provides.

Freshly opened box and plugged into main PC setup. I use it mostly for work and having the ability to display multiple PC desktops at once, but do play some video games with it from time to time. Here are my pros and cons, followed by a summary review: Cons: It no longer has that luxurious polished aluminum look around the display and stand, giving it a cheaper white-plastic look in general. Pros: That base, omg, its such a HUGE improvement! Its heavy, sturdy, and doesn't require any screws; everything is now snap-into-place, very nice improvement! The base/stand now allows for rotation left/right, tilt forward/back, and elevates up/down. This is a big improvement to the previous model that only allowed for a single movement of up/down which also changed the tilt at the same time. Not independently. I also like the cord management layout in the rear, allowing for a more open feel compared to the previous model which had a rectangle slot that you were supposed to cover back up with a cover after plugging in, but never used because it wasn't great for DP fit. Overall: I'm really happy with my new monitor, despite being exactly the same monitor, just with a FAR superior stand, and slightly upgraded components, e.g. TB4 vs TB3, and including HDR10. It also came with a variety of video cords, including a new TB4 cord, which is always nice. (Didn't come with DP but that's fine).

The feature that had me looking hard at this model was the picture-beside-picture mode. I have a macbook for personal use and a windows laptop for work. Both of them have USB-C ports. IMPORTANT NOTE ABOUT USB-C: if you buy a second cable, search for "thunderbolt". Many USB-C cables support the same power capacity, but are limited to the USB 2.0 speed, which is insufficient for the huge data rate of high-resolution video. Also, if you want to use the power supplied by the monitor, make sure the cable is rated for the wattage your device uses. It is *really* nice having just one slim cable going to my laptop, and no hub or docking station needed. Switching from one device to side-by-side was easy, and both the mac and windows machine recognized the changed dimensions and adapted quickly. There's an option to choose which device gets to use the built-in speakers. I don't do a lot of gaming, but I fired up my favorite flight sim program, and it looked great (although my machine is not powerful enough to get high frame rates at full resolution). Did not notice any glitching that I have seen on older LCD panels. Physically, this monitor is perfect for me. I wanted it to be more or less towards the corner of my desk, and the curved design makes it fit nicely and not take up as much room as a flat panel would have. The bezel is black and, honestly, there's so much monitor, I don't even notice it. The bottom bezel is a matt silver/grey, and blends in with the rest of the room. It came with one USB-C cable, and one HDMI cable (oddly, the USB cable is black, while the HDMI cable is white - a better match for the back of the monitor.) My work involves sometimes having a lot of windows open with text - console connections to network equipment. With this monitor, I can have nine windows at least, probably 12, at a font setting big enough to be comfortably readable from almost four feet away. The speakers are okay for watching TV or having some soft music in the background, but they have a limited range. They are better than even the best laptop speakers (with possible exception of the new 16" macbook pro) but even a modest pair of desktop speakers will give much better sound. There is a plate that covers all of the inputs and outputs, which means that even with two laptops, the back can look neat and finished - not the typical spaghetti on so many monitors. A big plus if the back of the display is visible to others. Overall, the monitor does everything I wanted to do, does it simply, and has a picture that's absolutely fantastic.

Product is great and as expected. Good to note it does not have build in speakers as the description says. I was not happy with how the the large price decline appeared soon after I purchased. I purchased for 3,500 SAR approx. and now it says the price was "2,800 SAR" (not the case) with a 7% "discount" to be 2,590 SAR. Very misleading.

Excelente monitor las dimensiones de pantalla o área de visión son las siguientes : Ancho libre de pantalla: 80.70 cms Alto libre de pantalla: 33.50 cms Diagonal libre de pantalla: 87.50 cms Relación Aspecto Pantalla: 21:9

Me gusta que se auto regula el brillo con el ambiente. La uso para programar y en ocasiones diseño. Para diseñar está muy bien.

Good quality for the price when it is on discount. Used to have 2 monitors and 2 set of power cords and HDMI cables plus USB-C dock + the power cord of the USB-C dock. With this monitor, i now need just one USB-C cable to get the same level of productivity.

This is an awesome monitor - using it with M1 MacBook Pro. The people who are complaining that you cannot control the volume and brightness of the monitor when connected through the MacBook should know its a limitation of MacOS and not the monitor. There are utilities available to get this done. And to people complaining about it being washed out. unless you have superman laser vision - it is fine to my normal eyes. its 3440X1440 stretched out on a UltraWide VA panel. only wish was for them to have usb 3.0 instead of the usb 2.0. hard to find a monitor with actual TB3 ports (lets alone 2 of them) in this price range. The monitor is sleek and does the job for me - browsing, emails, movies, Netflix, YouTube, minimal photo editing.
