Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I bought this in Sept 2020 prior to any reviews being posted. I honestly expected more from Samsung, but this monitor was the worst I've ever owned. Whenever you scroll, everything dark or black leaves trails. You don't even need to scroll fast. This is especially bad with dark sites/programs such as Steam, and normal white pages with text. I've never owned a monitor that has been that bad. Even the 144hz line on testufo/blur busters had horrible blur to it. That doesn't happen on my other monitors. I tried a different DP cable and moving the port on my GPU, no fix. Also, the HDR isn't good on this monitor. Turning it on makes everything kind of warm. It makes it look like you have the blue light filter turned on. Everything (especially whites) have a kind of reddish hue. It also causes all Windows text to look broken up and fuzzy. Running ClearText doesn't fix this. You can turn up the HDR brightness in Windows Color which helps with the reddish hue but makes the text and everything else look worse. Turning HDR off makes everything look "normal" again, but at the cost of no HDR. The monitor also has a fair amount of backlight bleed. Not the worst I've had with a monitor, but enough to notice. I will say that I don't care for the extreme curvature either. That may be a personal preference sort of thing, but it took about a week to get used to it. Even then I found it to be a hindrance in anything but games. Doing any kind of photo or video editing with that high of a curvature was a bit of a pain due to things sort of looking stretched as you moved out towards the edges. I think a high curvature like this would be good if the monitor was much bigger (like their 49" one), but a 32" is too small to be that curved. I have an AOC monitor with a slight curve to it which is nice. Also, the extreme curve of the Samsung monitor causes it to be really deep. So whether you're having it sit on your desk or using a VESA mount, it sits MUCH closer to you than a flat or slightly curved monitor due to the extra few inches of thickness. I finally returned this today after owning for about two weeks. No amount of messing with the settings could fix this, so I've bought a different brand of monitor which (when it gets here) I hope will be better. Maybe I just got a bad one, but as it stands, I couldn't recommend this to anyone. It's inexpensive, but it's also "cheap". You're going to have a monitor for awhile, so spend a little extra to make sure you get a good one.
