Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great monitor but. Just bought this monitor after having a 1080p 29" LG ultrawide. All I gotta say is, the down tilt angle is garbage and horrible for setups with raised monitors, Sitting dead center of the monitor and about 2/3rds of the rest of the monitor is just washed out white

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Excellent Monitor it has a sharp picture with many options. i mounted mine on a floor stand in front of my desk instead of using the stand that came with it. i use it at 3440x1440 and set the win10 display zoom to %150. i have an rx 590 fatboy graphics card.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Not a bad monitor i love the size and it seems to work flawlessly. the coloring does look washed out no matter what setting i've tried. but the price is one of the cheapest i've seen for a ultrawide.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Seizure Samsung Where do I begin?? I'm EXTREMELY (and I wish that I clukd make this letters bigger) disappointed with the quality of this monitor. Right from the moment that I turned this monitor on, without even plugging a computer in yet, I began to see different color lines of pixels. I read a review about "seizing Samsung" and of course that I ignored it because I am a devoted (was maybe) Samsung user and ordered the monitor regardless. The color was (I am returning this junk) horrible, dull, yellowish colors (my laptop looked 100% better. Of course that I played with the settings and resolutions, without success. Besides what everyone else's says, if you can stay away from this monitor do so. Again, I am a devoted Samsung users, but this monitor has lots to be desired.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Perfect monitor for multitasking The Samsung Ultra Wide 24" monitor is perfect for anyone needing additional screen space. This monitor has a crystal clear 3440 x 1440 resolution and the ability to connect using Display port or HDMI. I current connect using the Display port which allows me to connect a second monitor using the HDMI port. The screen split allows be to dedicate two screens on this monitor at the same time. This is great for programming an web design. Now I can have a screen for edits and one to view output. This is also helpful for spreadsheets and other work related tasks. Screen is so clear, I have also used this monitor to stream Hulu and Amazon movies. This would be convenient for small spaces like a dorm room. The setup was easy. Only took a few minute from box to ready to use. Laptop located and automatically installed the correct drivers. No searching and no need for CDs. Thinking about picking up a second one for my home office.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Pure Beauty! The Samsung UHD Ultra wide 34 inch monitor is a thing of pure beauty. A perfect size for my desk and fits well as my main monitor of my 3 monitor set up. It has a crystal clear picture and has made multitasking much easier due to the space. The screen splitting software is amazing. To have two screens up at once , gives me the options to have fewer monitors or no minimized windows. It is beautiful and seamless. I love having one half the screen as a game and the other half as social media or even the current sports event up. It is perfect for gaming, providing for more life like action than ever before. I was very easy to set up. All the buttons are easy to access and well hidden so nothing takes away from the beauty of the screen. A must have for a novice computer user all the way to an extreme gamer.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Absolutely Stunning! My new Samsung screen monitor has been a game changer. Not only for my work productivity but also for my eyesight. Everything is ready to go,right out of the box. I went from having two monitors to One, and I don’t miss a thing. I work with different databases and the screen split option is perfect and functional. I can also view more of the documents I’m working on without zooming in and out. The design Of the monitor is nice and sleek. The stand doesn’t take up a whole lot of space on my desk and I'm so grateful I no longer have a bunch of ugly cables draping across my desk. The monitors menu (JOG button is easy to navigate, easy to reach and is also where you’ll find the eye saver settings which I highly recommend. Low blue light settings means no more ugly blue blocking glasses & No more daily headaches after working on my computer for several hours. Everyone who has walked into my office compliments the beauty and spectacular screen display this monitor gives. Highly recommend. see the before and after below

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Excellent Monitor So far, I am enjoying my new Samsung Ultra Wide monitor. For someone who currently has either a single or dual monitor setup this is the ideal solution. You are able to get more real estate, without the bevel that obstructs your view in the middle. The colors are excellent and you have the option to change the display to eye saver mode, which reduces the blues and helps eliminate eye strain when spending a lot of time in front of the monitor. Playing games with this monitor has been a nice improvement. Previously, I had a 3 monitor setup, where many games would only display on the center monitor, eliminating the other 2 in the process. The rich colors and response times were outstanding with significantly better contrast (3000:1) to my previous setup. I also found multitasking improved. Using the windows key to easily snap windows to the left and right sides of the screen made it easy to have 2 windows, fully expanded on the left and right of the screen. Resizing those windows was also easy, enabling me to have one application take up 2/3 of the screen while the other application took up the remaining 1/3rd of the screen. The P-in-P feature was nice too. I have a desktop which is my primary machine, and a laptop for work. The laptop is on a docking station, and I can now hook it up to the same monitor and use the picture in picture feature to see both. Overall, this was a nice improvement to what I was using. It has cleaned up the look of my desk, while still giving me plenty of desktop space to work, and play, with the size of this setup.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Amazing! Like wow! This monitor really changes everything. I can get things done so much quicker by using the screen splitting technology picture by picture is the easiest way to complete a lot of work at once which makes it is so amazing for work and I just love this. I can't say enough good about this monitor. The picture quality is fantastic. Screen clarity is superb. This is just the trick to keep me up to date on my work so I can spend more time with my family and doing the things I love. Thank you for the opportunity to try out this wonderful product. Samsung really out did yourself. The quality and picture are just excellent. I am tend to get migraines when working on a computer but this one I do not! This is beyond amazing!!!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Samsung Ultra Wide 34' monitor My Samsung Ultra Wide 34' monitor has been a great addition to my workspace. its sleek design provides me with more desk space. The image clarity is outstanding, it reduces eye strain, and the image quality is amazing. the screen splitting capabilities make it easier to multitask.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Multitasking at its finest! At first, I was hesitant that I would not like the 34" HD monitor over having (2) 24" monitors to use in my home office. Only after using it for about 15 minutes, I realized that this is going to work out great! The 34" monitor looks great and has a great aesthetic appeal in my office. The ability to have split screen and windows stacked clearly has helped me manage all the tasks that I am trying to complete. This was great for Oulook/Email, Web Browsers, Excel, CRM and other line of business applications. The PIP (Picture in Picture) was easy to setup and use. Couple clicks and I was ready to rock and roll. My mom could even do it. I would highly recommend this monitor to someone that needs something like this. I won't mind doing work at home as much now! P.S. - This also looks a lot nicer in my office, which keeps my wife happy.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from An Ideal Display for Both Work and Games I'm a programmer, and work back and forth between a lot of applications, so monitor real estate is very important to me. Previously I've used 2 27" 4k monitors, but the new Samsung 34" widescreen SJ55W really fits the bill. Initially I was hesitant the resolution (WQHD 3440x1440 would not compare to 4k (3840x2160), but my concerns were quickly put to rest. I was able to use 3 windows side by side comfortably, as well as a 2/3, 1/3 configuration for applications that could use more real estate. PBP (picture by picture) allows you to easily hook up a laptop to the monitor and to split the screen space with another source, providing a flexible option without having to resort to laptop docks/separate monitors. In addition to work, the SJ55W is also a great for video games. the 21:9 aspect ratio gives you a huge range of view on first person shooters. The colors are sharp and vibrant, and the black levels are really good. The 75hz refresh rate is an added bonus, usually not found at this price range. In summary, the Samsung SJ55W is a great monitor for both work and gaming. You may think you're losing some pixels due to WQHD vs 4k, but you're gaining a lot more in usable real estate. Pros - WQHD wide screen - Slim form factor - PBP and PIP - 75hz refresh rate Cons - No Thunderbolt support - VESA mounting holes are not centered, some people may have issues with existing mounting options

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Many Great Features To Consider First off, one can't deny the benefit and beauty of so much screen real estate. The flexibility to view 2 documents/screens side-by-side, entire webpages with minimal scrolling, or multiple inputs using PIP/PBP, makes this a versatile monitor for work or play. My primary usage is for business applications in a work-from-home setting. I connect two laptops using the dual HDMI inputs in PC mode and extend the displays. It also includes a DisplayPort and headphone input for added versatility. This gives me the equivalent of three screens to view my work. Where this monitor really shines is crisp text even with 12 pt. fonts, minimal glare, accurate color reproduction, and the eye saver mode for extended viewing comfort (reduces blue light output). Although I can't comment directly with this monitor, it does feature FreeSync (FS) too, but my graphics card does not support it. I have seen FS in action elsewhere, and it is an added bonus if you are a gamer with a compatible card. You can also use the monitor for TV viewing due to the dual HDMI inputs, and the picture quality is very good. You will need to change the setting to AV mode, and you can also adjust the aspect ratios and other settings to suit your preferences. There are a few aspects of the monitor that are not ideal for a user such as myself (work-from-home), although I suspect they would not impact most people. In the interest of transparency, I will include them in my review. As mentioned earlier, I use both inputs simultaneously throughout the day for viewing work content. When I have a need to switch to a full screen view of either of the inputs, I have to select the small jog button on the back of the monitor to change inputs. This requires it to cycle through the inputs each time until it reaches the one I want. There are no software shortcuts or hot-keys to simplify this process, and it is not uncommon for me to do this a dozen or more times a day. Not only is it a bit slow, I worry about the durability of the jog button with so much use. Also, there are no height or pan/swivel adjustments, only tilt. For me, I like to stand up periodically during the work day, so it is not at an optimal viewing angle during this scenario. The monitor is light, so it is easy to physically pivot the monitor, but then the stand moves things on your desk. Again, these are not deal-breakers, but small annoyances. Overall, I would fully recommend it to those looking for a widescreen monitor.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Samsung widescreen+dex for the win! I received my Samsung Ultra wQHD monitor a few weeks ago, and wow!, the size and brightness of this screen is impressive. i was extremely excited to see what Samsung DEX would look like and perform on this screen, and it does not disappoint, settings were perfect right out of the box. with my multi tasking, pulling up multiple documents to work on and researching in the browser, i have essentially created a complete desktop setup for less than $500.00 that performs seamlessly and is more than enough for the tasks i am going to require of it. The unboxing and setup was extremely easy, no instructions necessary, in a world where poeple pay IT departments to do anything tech related, this makes them obsolete!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Ridiculously large, but ridiculously AWESOME! Super excited to receive this monitor I have a dedicated desktop for video editing. Now I have plenty of room working in Adobe premier pro & after effects, no more scrolling side side to see everything. It was packaged well, attached the stand in seconds. Although little, LOVE the cable clip on the back to keep them inline with the stand and hidden.. picture quality of the WQHD is amazing, it is Sharp, colors are bright and crisp!! Havent used the pip option havent needed too! I would highly recommend it for anyone using video or photo editing software

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Excellent Screen Quality!! I typically work from home and utilize a dual monitor in my home office setup. My old monitor developed a large line right down the center of the screen, so I was in the market for a new monitor!! I knew I wanted a larger monitor. I figured if I'll invest in a new monitor, I should find one that is much larger. I wasn't aware of the Ultrawide monitor category, and took a look at a few of the options out there. I decided upon the Samsung QHD Ultra Wide monitor for a few reasons. With this monitor I can use two HDMI cables and connect to my laptop and get rid of both of my old monitors. The resolution is stunning and there's no sacrifice on quality when I'm using a dual screen setup. As you can see in the photos, I'm multitasking by streaming on one screen and browsing on the right side of the screen! The Picture By Picture is perfect for my needs and at 34" I don't need to zoom in on emails or other text documents. Well worth the price and I'll have the Samsung QHD Ultra Wide for a number of years! Glad I made the investment and the monitor is an excellent balance of performance, quality, resolution and price!! Great work Samsung!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Perfect for Multitasking At work I use multiple monitors, which works well overall, but the split in between and the multiple stands makes it a good, but not ideal option. This monitor works very well for multitasking as it's essentially the size of two monitors placed side-by-side, but offers significant advantages such as having a single stand and having no gap in between. I can comfortably use two programs side by side, which significantly improves my efficiency. I regularly use Excel, PowerPoint, Word and web browsers side by side for both work and school. In all cases I have used Windows built in features to anchor programs to one side of the screen or the other, but I know that when I have more advanced use cases I'll be able to use the built in split screen and Picture in Picture modes. The monitor is easy to set up, looks gorgeous with good color reproduction and a high resolution (3440x1440 resolution) and has a good menu system. The menu is controlled using a small joystick in the back. It takes a few minutes to get used to using, but then is much more intuitive and effective than other menu systems I have used in the past. I recommend the monitor for those who want or need the extra space.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from A beautiful multitasking beast The SJ55W easily replaced my previous two monitor setup. The ultrawide aspect ratio gave more than enough real estate for multiple applications. This monitor truly was made for multitasking. Image quality was excellent as well; near-IPS color reproduction and wide viewing angles. I was actually pretty impressed with the picture-in-picture and picture-by-picture feature. I have a 2nd computer connected to the second hdmi port on the monitor and I am able to quickly switch to that second source and even display both at the same time. It would be even better if there was a keyboard shortcut to switch inputs, but it still works pretty seemlessly. Pros: Screen real estate, picture quality, unique features such as PIP and PBP, AMD freesync Cons: Cost (although not too bad when you consider it replaces 2 monitors, activating PIP and PBP could be a little easier Take home - a beautiful-looking multitasking monitor with a brilliant picture.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Real nice monitor, just be aware of limitations I've always bought really cheap monitors, so this was a splurge meant to get rid of 3 lame monitors, each connected to different machines. I use an application called ShareMouse to seemlessly go to each different computer on the same mouse and keyboard. I was hoping that would carry over with the PiP functionality with the SJ55W, but it doesn't work at all. It doesn't even work when I switch the inputs to the other machines. That isn't the fault of the monitor and I may have still bought this model even without it, but it looks like PiP is mostly passive, allowing you to watch content on that computer but nothing else. I did dig out an old KVM switch and now I've got good functionality. If I had any complaints, it's that I'd like to see an application to switch inputs rather than the 4 way button on the back. But as far as monitor buttons go, it's pretty good.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from This Samsung ultra wide QHD monitor has the 3 C's! The 34" Samsung SJ55W Ultra WQHD Monitor will be an awesome addition to your office or home. This ultra wide QHD monitor has the 3 C's covered - color, clarity , and contrast. The whites are whiter and the brights are brighter. I am a gamer by night and a mechanical engineer by day. The best feature in my opinion is the picture-by-picture (PBP) function. I enjoyed playing a video game while getting my binge on. PBP should not be confused with PIP - Picture-in-Picture. The SJ55W also has PIP. I used this feature to view the latest financial news while maximizing my onscreen work space. I have a multi-monitor set up in my office cubicle. I would trade my 7 smaller monitors for just two of these powerhouses. The monitor is light and easy to set up. You can use the included base or utilize the VESA mount with your choice of monitor stands (sold separately). I love this #SamsungUltrawideMonitor. I will continue to enjoy the #SamsungMonitorExperience in my home and office.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from I have been waiting for a monitor like this I have been waiting for a monitor like this 2019-02-12 10:19:44 I am thrilled with the quality and detail of the screen! The extra screen real estate is amazing and allows for much easier use of Photoshop and I can open windows side by side for easy reference between apps or I can keep my playlist open will still working in my primary app. Using video editing software and being able to drag and drop my media directly from a folder into the project has streamlined my work space. The experience while watching movies isn't as beneficial as the enhancements for software as it doesn't fill the entire screen but it doesn't distract me and the image quality is sharp and precise while the colors are clean and accurate with no color banding issues. If you are a gamer, this thing will blow your socks off. The extra screen real estate really gives a cinematic feel to gaming that has to be experienced to truly understand. After playing on this monitor and going back to a 16:9 monitor makes it almost claustrophobic in feel, almost like I was missing something. Again, the colors and detail were sharp and precise. You may need to upgrade your video card to support full resolution gaming with good frame rate at high detail but you wont want to sell yourself short by cutting back on the settings so you can see the true benefits of the display. Did I mention that this thing is huge? The box was so big that my daughter though I bought a TV and it dominates my desk space and steals the show from everything else in the area. I ran some diagnostic software called monitor test to push this beast through its paces. It passed the light bleed test without any issues. There was no noticeable light bleed which I was worried about with such a large display but the lighting was consistent throughout the display. Solid colors looked even and balanced but during the gradation test it did have some banding but it is much better than on other monitors I have tested. The moire test was spot on even at the finest setting. the patterns were all clear and didn't blur or bleed into each other.During the convergence testing there was no color bleed or ghosting and there was a sharp contrast between light and dark. Text was very clear and sharp even at 6 point Arial font and was easy to read. Overall, I am very pleased with this monitor. I have been looking for a monitor of this caliber at a reasonable price point. I would recommend this especially to art and video creators. Read

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Transform your productivity Binge watching your favorite shows just got so much better. A totally immersive experience using the 34" SJ55W Ultra WQHD Monitor. This monitor can double as your television because it is just that great. The picture is so clear and vibrant I feel like I can reach in and grab that hamburger on the commercial, take a bite and enjoy. The Ultra-wide screen has allowed me to be more productive and decrease the time it takes to complete activities. Scrolling and flipping through several screens is no longer needed because everything you need to view fits perfectly on the display. No more flipping between spreadsheets and internet browsers to pay bills. Conveniently record your payments side by side while you view the online payment portal. This has also made photo editing easier. I can now view several pictures and use multiple programs to achieve my best images. The Samsung SJ55W UltraWide monitor has transformed how I work. I highly recommend this product.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Beautiful display, easy to set up and use This is a beautiful monitor: both physically, and the display. It's packaged well, arrived undamaged, and easy to set up. Despite its size, it's relatively light and easy to move around. It can be used with the included stand, or mounted via 4 holes on the back. I plugged in my laptop, and it displayed the screen immediately. The 'JOG' button (a joystick-like button on the back of the monitor is intuitive to use if you need to change settings, and helps to maintain the clean lines of the monitor. This display can easily replace a 2-monitor setup, as it's so wide that you can put windows (applications, spreadsheets, etc.) side-by-side and easily see everything at once. It has a picture-in-picture and picture by picture function that will display 2 different sources at the same time (there are 2 HDMI ports and 1 DisplayPort). It also has lots of picture customization options, including eco options and 'Samsung Magic' upscaling that enhances the details of the picture. This appears to sharpen and possibly slightly change the contrast. I didn't like the effect when used for the type of work I do, but perhaps it would be something some would enjoy for certain applications. Overall, this is a fantastic monitor, with a beautiful picture and enormous size.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from This is a BIG monitor....almost TOO big. Coming from an old 23" 1080p monitor that I purchased in 2010, this is quite the upgrade. It's amazing how affordable monitors have gotten in the past few years. We are a long ways from the days when I spent nearly a grand on a 19" LCD. Still, it isn't a "cheap" monitor, so the value proposition needs to be there. First, the monitor is absolutely massive. It's hard to overstate just how large it is at 34". You can fit truckloads on the screen at once, but the issue with most ultrawide displays is finding content that will fit it, and this is no exception. Because the 21:9 ratio is different from the traditional 16:9 ratio, you get black bars on the sides with nearly all video content. This is a non-issue with gaming since the resolution can usually be matched up, and it works great for traditional workflows like video editing, but don't expect to watch most widescreen movies on this without bars. I didn't end up using the Samsung software that lays out items on the screen since I'm fine with native Windows 10 window management that aligns two things side-by-side, but you'll definitely want to use something or it will feel overwhelming. In that same vein, I think 32" or so is the limit of a realistic monitor size before it really needs to be curved. Obviously a curved version would increase the price substantially, but you'll find that you usually have to move your head a few inches from side to side to see all the content comfortably. Again, not an issue if you understand that limitation going in, but just realize that this is a lot of pixels for your eyes to track. Regarding the refresh rate, I'm happy that Samsung included FreeSync. That's a big plus. Unfortunately, the default range that FreeSync works on his monitor is only 48-75 Hz. I'd like to see a lower starting point. Additionally, the only output that allows 75 Hz at max resolution is DisplayPort, so make sure you are using that and not HDMI. This will get more useful as more GPUs come with FreeSync support, especially with NVIDIA adding support to the 10/20 series. As expected, the monitor is extremely bright out of the box at around 185cd/m2. I had to take the brightness all the way down to 21/100 to hit 120cd/m2. (There is no separate backlight control, so there will be a PQ adjustment when reducing brightness). Had to adjust my RGB to 57/32/40 to get close enough for a color profile to make it the rest of the way to 6500k. All in all, a good monitor at a good price. Disclaimer: I received this monitor at a discounted price in exchange for my honest review. All opinions are my own.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Multitask Master From the moment I pulled it out of the box I knew it was something special about it Maybe it was just the insane size maybe it was the overall slim and simplistic look. All I knew at the time was I was excited to find out what this monitor was capable of. I got this monitor to replace 2 19” monitors which crowded my desk and did not have a great visual appeal to them maybe that had to do with the fact that they were different brands. My job in finance means I need multiple monitors or so I thought. It’s not multiple monitors I need it’s one monitor that’s capable of multitasking. That monitor is the 34” Samsung ultra-wide monitor. I am able to fit more on one screen than I ever was able to on 2 all in more clarity. Set up was simple 2 pieces to set up the stand and then connect the stand easily to the monitor itself locked into place via 1 screw. Then via 1 hdmi cable to my laptop and I was good to go. I can see entire spreadsheets with out the need to scroll left or right or up or down. I can also have email up too without the two programs interfering with each other. Going through the settings the monitor is capable of PIP which splits the screen into two so you would be the equivalent of having 2 15” monitors. I tried to set this feature up but was unable to as you need to have 2 hdmi cables and inputs. And my laptop being a few years old only had one. I do plan on trying this out though perhaps connecting to be able to watch Netflix or or cable . Yes that is multitasking at its best! And this Samsung monitor definitely lives up to the hype. I recommend this monitor to anyone who needs to work with multiple programs at once. Or wants a cleaner set up than having to have a couple of bulky monitors on your desk.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Amazing Monitor with Simultaneous Input Streams! Wow, what a beautiful monitor. With the huge 3440x1440 resolution on a 34 inch screen, you can do it all with just one monitor. Having two applications running side by side with room to spare is quite an awesome experience on this one monitor. Plus you can include additional inputs from another PC, game system, or TV simultaneously with the Picture in Picture / Picture by Picture feature. This is a super sharp and bright monitor and I'm really enjoying it. I took the monitor through a spin on my YouTube review check it out. #SamsungMonitorExperience #SamsungUltraWideMonitor

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Highly Efficient The SJ55W Ultra WQHD Monitor has changed the way I work. Gone are the days of needing two monitors to effectively manage multiple documents simultaneously. The 34” ultra wide screen provides ample space to view multiple screens. Graphics are sharp and clean while the colors are vibrant. My favorite feature is the sub screen split that allows me to be working on a spreadsheet but see a smaller version of another document in the lower corner. This eliminates flipping between documents thus making me more efficient. This monitor performs at optimum levels with razor sharp images. Highly recommended for the office setting.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Fantastic Monitor & Highly Recom I typically work from home and utilize a dual monitor in my home office setup. My old Asus monitor developed a large line right down the center of the screen, so I was in the market for a new monitor!! I knew I wanted a larger monitor. I figured if I'll invest in a new monitor, I should find one that is much larger. I wasn't aware of the Ultrawide monitor category, and took a look at a few of the options out there. I decided upon the Samsung QHD Ultra Wide monitor for a few reasons. With this monitor I can use two HDMI cables and connect to my laptop and get rid of both of my old monitors. The resolution is stunning and there's no sacrifice on quality when I'm using a dual screen setup. As you can see in the photos, I'm multitasking by streaming on one screen and browsing on the right side of the screen! The Picture By Picture is perfect for my needs and at 34" I don't need to zoom in on emails or other text documents. Well worth the price and I'll have the Samsung QHD Ultra Wide for a number of years! Glad I made the investment and the monitor is an excellent balance of performance, quality, resolution and price!! Great work Samsung!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Pure Beauty! The Samsung UHD Ultra wide 34 inch monitor is a thing of pure beauty. A perfect size for my desk and fits well as my main monitor of my 3 monitor set up. It has a crystal clear picture and has made multitasking much easier due to the space. The screen splitting software is amazing. To have two screens up at once , gives me the options to have fewer monitors or no minimized windows. It is beautiful and seamless. I love having one half the screen as a game and the other half as social media or even the current sports event up. It is perfect for gaming, providing for more life like action than ever before. I was very easy to set up. All the buttons are easy to access and well hidden so nothing takes away from the beauty of the screen. A must have for a novice computer user all the way to an extreme gamer.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from No squinting and tons of multitasking If you want amazing quality this is the monitor for you. First off I love way that the packaging was done. Two boxes but the outside box was an unmarked boxed. This made me happy/felt a lot better since mine sat on my porch for a couple hours and no one was the wiser as to what it was. Next set up was a breeze. It took longer to open the two boxes then to attach the two pieces...yes two pieces...4 if you count the cables & power cord. It should only take you 5 minutes maybe 10 minutes tops. My laptop is small and light however, the downfall with that is a small screen. I have used dual monitors which was helpful up until my purchasing of the Samsung 34" Ultra WQHD Monitor for my home office one screen is enough. I can multitask to my hearts desire. Tons of applications and or browser windows can fill this monitor an you can keep plugging away. If you pick the PIP option the size is awesome. Many different placement on the screen. I also love the eye saver mode...after staring at a screen all day (8/10 hours plus) our eyes need a break. You will totally notice a difference once you turn this feature on/off. The only thing I must warn you is if you have an old style desk (molded for a certain size) this monitor will not fit. Do yourself a favor upgrade your desk...it will need to be an open concept or long desk.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Perfect monitor for a developer I can finally say that I’ve found a monitor that’s perfect for my job as a web developer. I’ve used several different external monitors with my laptop, but all except this 34” Samsung SJ55W ultra-wide have missed the mark in some way. Normal 1080p monitors just couldn’t show enough on the screen, causing me to continually flip back and forth between applications. 4K monitors were super-crisp and high resolution, but the font sizes were too small to comfortably read. This Samsung’s wide screen and 3440x1440 resolution is just right and has no problem displaying my code editor and a couple of terminals and browsers on the screen at the same time. Another thing I love about this monitor is its non-reflective screen. My desk at work is directly next to a big window, and this caused big problems in the past with major glare on other monitors that had glossy panels. I’ve never had any trouble seeing my work on this Samsung’s screen, even in bright daylight. The monitor offers other features like the ability to display two video inputs/sources at the same time (side-by-side or picture-in-picture) and FreeSync capability, but I’ve yet to try them. The 75Hz refresh rate is a little higher than the 60Hz most other monitors have, and combined with it’s speedy 4ms response time, this would also make a nice gaming monitor. Overall, I’m extremely pleased with using this monitor on a daily basis at work. I’ve spent a solid month with it now and can’t imagine going back to a different monitor. My productivity has really increased now that I'm able to keep all my important applications visible at the same time. Thanks to Samsung for such a great monitor!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Should have bought one sooner! I received my Samsung Ultra wQHD monitor a few days ago, and wow!, the size and brightness of this screen is impressive. i was extremely excited to see what Samsung DEX would look like and perform on this screen, and it does not disappoint, settings were perfect right out of the box. with my multi tasking, pulling up multiple documents to work on and researching in the browser, i have essentially created a complete desktop setup for less than $500.00 that performs seamlessly and is more than enough for the tasks i am going to require of it. The unboxing and setup was extremely easy, no instructions necessary, in a world where poeple pay IT departments to do anything tech related, this makes them obsolete!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Works well if it works Contacted the reseller and samsung customer service but none of them are helpful. Here is my issue: I am using a certified displayport 1.2, hoping I can run in the stock 75hz (the included HDMI cannot reach 75hz for some reason). It turns on, but frame skips. Once I load into windows, I can unplug and re-plug the power or the displayport, then I can hit 75hz smoothly. Another annoyance is that when the monitor is off, the blue led turns on and flashing. I can tape that off so it doesn't bother me when I sleep. The bigger annoyance is sometimes it thinks it detected signal from the PC that's off, and the screen turns on and off. That happens about once in a few hours. I don't know the exact interval because I am supposed to be sleeping. So, to over come with these issues. I just unplug the monitor every time I turn off my PC, and plug in my monitor after the PC is loaded into windows. My old 24" samsung syncmaster had a power button.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Good Performance this is a great product that i have come to enjoy. 1) it is perfect for my wfh setup and 2) it complements my switch from macbook pro setup to mac mini setup! but for me, 2 things that really get in the way of a smooth user experience: 1) the screen sleep time is very short even if i have configured my laptop to 1 hour sleep. i think the monitor overrides the laptop configuration and goes on sleep mode w/o regard to the pc sleep time. 2) the automatic detect for source detection is also problematic. thus i always have to manually switch from my pc (hdmi 1) when using mac (hdmi 2) and does not smoothly navigate between sources and you have to cycle thru the display options. for a monitor costing almost 400usd, these kinks should not exist, hence, the -1 star rating.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Very pleased with this purchase! after several months of research, i was wavering between a 4k 28" dual monitor and an ultrawide monitor. after much thought, i decided to go with the ultrawide. this was most predicated on the fact that i am running an gtx sli 980ti. i order this directly from samsung. the time that it took to receive the monitor was a bit disappointing (it took more than a week), but i was happy when the package arrived unmolested from the left coast. before the monitor arrived i had read several reviews that indicated that the oem stand was undesirable, at best. i researched desktop vesa monitor stands and found a well liked hemuda tv stand online.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from The reviews ain't wrong A bright and wide monitor that lacks a few basics and is unreliable when you need it most. It checks the main boxes I need in a WQHD, but lacks inbuilt speakers. Multi input (2x hdmi+DP) split screen mode are a god-send. Besides the speaker issue, the screen tends to hibernate for long periods when an input device is shut down, sleeps or removed. Repeatedly moving the joy stick does nothing to wake the screen, even though the input device is awake. Besides this annoying quirk and lack of speakers, it's a decently good setup.

There is nothing to complain about. The color quality is great. No issues with sharpness or brightness. The monitor has AMD FreeSync as well, so games don't really have any tearing and looks good. The PIP mode is something I use often because I connect my laptop as well as my desktop and have them running simultaneously. This, I have to say, is one of the best features on the monitor. The only complaint I have is, the HDMI slot 1 only supports upto 50HZ.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from not terrible but not great I wanted an ultrawide monitor to replace three 1600x1200 monitors. This monitor isn't terrible, but the resolution is smaller than I wanted, and without a curve it's hard to read text at the left and right sides. I returned it and bought a larger curved monitor.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Perfect for me I use my monitor to write code, music production and email. Having an ultra wide screen makes it easier to see everything. The resolution is great. It also Pbp, and pip that allows video from two separate sources. I replaced two 19" monitors with this one and I couldn't be happier

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Very Bright, 400 Nits and AMD Sync i used it with the xbox series x and ps5; i would suggest only using it for the series x as the ps5 only supports 1080p and 4k. good display if you are a player looking for accurate colors, ray tracing, or high quality gaming. for 120fps gaming, i would look elsewhere; however, keep in mind with 120fps gaming, you are sacrificing quality. samsung could have added hdr but chose not to.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Constant disconnects. Monitor constantly flickers on and off every few minutes after only about a year of infrequent use. Of course the issue starts just out of the warranty period. None of the other 3 displayed connected to the system has any issues.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from I love this monitor so much... I had my monitor for a good amount of time before it's health was jeopardized in an unfortunate incident. It was so good though that I plan to try and get the part I need to fix it and I bring it back to life to join 2 other Samsung monitors currently use.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from null My power cord is defective. Bought a replacement cord and that one doesn’t work consistently either. Picture/power cuts in and out and my warranty has expired. Have has this for less than a year - heard this happened to a lot of other people to. Ridiculous that I can’t get a replacement or refund.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Ultra Wide The ultra-wide screen makes this the perfect monitor for work. It makes using PowerPoint and excel easy. Able to view multiple files at once without having to condense the zoom and avoid straining your eyes. It is also extremely useful for streaming videos or watching sports/TV. Love this and have one for home and work offices.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great image, excellent colors I use the monitor for work. This is a much better option than side by side screens. It’s big and the image is outstanding. It works flawlessly. The brightness is excellent. I mounted mine on an arm and that just allows me to set it to my best viewing and thus helping with neck pain.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Awesome monitor but there is audio issues Very good monitor colors are great... only issue is the audio... I knew this monitor didn't have internal speakers, but I has going to use the aux jack in the back of this monitor with some headphones... audio quality from this port is terrible... not sure if it's a driver issue or it's just not meant to work with my headphones... everything else from this monitor is great

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great Monitor for developers Using it for a couple of weeks and am generally happy. This, however, is not a screen for everyone. This is a great screen with an unthoughtful base design. If you are a gamer you may find it limiting or if a movie buff the aspect ratio may even seem awkward. But for casual users and developers, this is a great screen. Its unassuming profile sits well on any desk and the ultra-wide aspect and WQHD resolution are very helpful.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Wish I wouldn't have bought it I use my monitor daily, gaming, watching movies, etc. The monitor looked beautiful at first out of the box, but after several months it started flickering, which got worse and worse. Sometimes it won't turn on/off, and will have to be reset by unplugging it. Now there is a vertical strip of dead pixels about 2 inches wide going down the middle of the monitor. I don't know if I got a defective one or if this is common. I do know that I've had a terrible experience with it and I would probably never buy a Samsung monitor again for fear of this happening.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Good monitor at a great price I use this monitor for gaming and work. The wide format makes having multiple pages/windows up simultaneously that are large enough to still be useful easy. Does fine as a gaming monitor. I've had it for a few years now and no dead pixels yet!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Beautiful monitor with some real problems I use my monitor for watching and streaming movies and for gaming mostly. I also do some light video and photo editing. The colors and brightness of the monitor are beautiful. However, after about a year, I began to notice some real problems. For instance, the monitor randomly goes black for a few seconds and then turns back on. This happens multiple times through the day, usually when I am just browsing the internet, or using applications. It doesn't seem to happen while gaming though. After about two years, the monitor was "ultra bright" as if the gamma or contrast was turned way up. I tried to turn it off and back on, but the power button would not work at all. After unplugging the power and plugging it back in, there were several vertical lines through the monitor that resemble dead pixels. This doesn't make the monitor totally unusable, but it is still a very distracting sight. While I love the ultrawide aspect ratio, these problems have had such an effect, that I ultimately wish I had not purchased this monitor. Unfortunately, all these problems started to happen after it was out of warranty, so there was little I could do except put up with them.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Good wide monitor for everyday use It is a good monitor for everyday productivity with its wide screen. Screen resolution and refresh rate a adequate for office and day to day work, but not for serious gaming. It would have been nice to have some flex in the stand to adjust vertical angle for the monitor. Depending on the desktop setup, the monitor screen does feel like as if it is slightly tilted forward. Otherwise it is a good monitor.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Amazing screen I use this as my work monitor and replaced my two smaller ones for it I love the quality it's a beautiful view great gaming as well. However I do not like all the settings being linked to one button you have to toggle with to change view nor do I like that its weight makes it hard to find a desk arm that works for it. Over great screen I just leave the settings as is so I don't have to go through the hassle
