SAMSUNG 32" UJ59 Series 4K UHD (3840x2160) Computer Monitor,VA Panel, HDMI, Display Port, Eye Saver/Flicker Free Mode, FreeSync, LU32J590UQNXZA, Black

I don't play too many games on the PC this is on. But it's not the fastest refresh, so I probably would not buy one for that. That being said, I'm not putting this down at all! It's an awesome monitor. I HAD a great gaming monitor with a curved screen this replaced. I don't need 240 Hz refresh rate or whatever. I play drums, and this is the monitor I use to play along to sheet music on the screen mostly. But my eyes weren't what they were. I run it at half the resolution it is capable of, because I want everything LARGE. I need to see the music notes clearly. I also need nice big clear text. The visual difference when I got this monitor after using the last one for 2+ years for this, was astonishing. Everything was clearer and sharper. Text is crisp. Video play back is awesome. This isn't the best of the best in monitors, but in this price range, this size, well I'm glad I picked this one. Sturdy as hell. You can see and feel the build quality. Colors are vibrant but not (to me) inaccurate. And I'm sure it works great for gaming! But not what I would pick for gaming, as I would want a faster screen refresh rate. For my use the refresh rate is way more than I need.

Using as computer monitor. Good quality and works as advertised. Quality I would expect from Samsung.

I really enjoy this monitor!! It’s great for gaming and has beautiful clear pictures on the screen! My only issue is when I try to boot it up at times it gives this distorted flashing glitchy code looking screen that I have to turn it off and restart it up for it to work which is annoying but solid for casual gamers who are on a budget

I'm running this monitor at 4K with a brand new Mac Studio with 2 other displays running at 2560x1440 and 60Hz. I'm using this monitor as my primary display using the Premium High Speed HDMI cable it shipped with. I found that the HDMI-1 input only supports 60Hz at 720. Otherwise, I was stuck at 30Hz. When I switched to the HDMI-2 input, I was able to set it to 4K at 60Hz. So, apparently the HDMI-1 input only supports HDMI 1.2. I did not see any documentation making note of this. Othe rwise, I am happy with this monitor, looks great, at a reasonable price-point.

I bought this monitor based on Samsung's brand believing I was buying a quality monitor. Unfortunately, a couple weeks after setting it up, the HDMI2 port started to fail and the connection from my laptop would cut on and off randomly. This started once in a while and proceeded to quickly get worse to the point that I could no longer use the port. I called Samsung and they refused to exchange it and said I'd need to send it to a repair center. The repair center was on the other side of the US in New Jersey (I'm west coast) and took forever just to arrive. They then kept it there for 3 weeks while sending automated text and email messages stating all sorts of weird things like there was physical damage to the sides (there was not) and all sorts of other random things. I called and spoke to several representatives over this 3-week period that I did not have a monitor to do my job and every representative said different things including to not pay attention to the text and email messages because they were wrong and I should trust them and not their system. Really shoddy process. Anyway, I finally got a message that they had replaced a part in the monitor and were sending it back. Lo and behold, after a couple of weeks the HDMI2 port is doing the same thing. Switched to the HDMI1 port because I can't deal with not having a monitor for another 3 weeks to do my job. Well, the HDMI1 doesn't flicker, but it does display tiny little red pixels randomly on dark colors, and also shows horizontal lines at random times. Called customer service to request a replacement and have been given the runaround now by 5 representatives, told that a manager would call me back (they never did), told that the monitor doesn't qualify for a replacement because it needs to be sent for repairs twice before they will replace it. Absolutely horrible experience. Samsung is not the company it used to be. Do yourself a favor and look elsewhere. There are plenty of other choices for this price.

I'm so happy with it. First, the packaging was very well done. Nice and tight and very well protected. Then, I was surprised on how big the monitor is. I know I ordered the 32", but I was not used to it. The picture comes out crisp and clean. All the colors are vibrant. The black is so black, that it's metal. I definitely recommend.

Been shopping for an upgrade for some time and looking at this specific model. It was well worth the wait and at this price a steal. Screen quality is amazing. Excellent responsiveness for video although I use it mostly for work. With the extra real estate I can have videos on in the background as I'm working. If you are running a Windows machine, and upgrading to 4K for the first time as I am, use the recommended DPI scaling, and make sure you restart before making any judgements/further adjustments. It may take some getting used to but well worth it once everything is scaled and configured. If any older apps are blurry, use the "Troubleshoot compatibility" wizard (find the program, right-click, follow prompts). There are two things I think could be improved on this monitor but at this price, can't really complain... 1. The stand is flimsy and the slightest desk movement causes the monitor to shake side-to-side. This is remedied with a monitor mount which can be had for cheap here. I think some of this is due to the stand connecting with the monitor at the bottom. A mount uses the VESA bolt holes in the middle and adds a lot of stability. 2. The monitor case (not the screen) is a little roughly assembled. There is glue on some edges. But it's black/dark gray and I really can't tell unless looking close. These are two things that don't really bother me at this price and the screen quality makes up for all of it.

It's a lot of pixels and area for $200 but picture quality isn't very good. (If you don't buy it on Prime day and it is $250, give it a miss.) You will be reading gray-on-not-very-bright-white text, and the shade of gray differs a lot across viewing angle. If you care about color accuracy, that shifts a lot with viewing angle too. No USB ports (despite the description), no speaker. It is even worse if 'ECO Mode' is on (makes the screen even dimmer to save power) or if 'MAGIC Bright' is set to 'Cinematic' (which for some reason smears some pixels together making text much harder to read). If you are going to spend a lot of time staring at this, you would probably be better off springing for a better monitor, depending on your financial situation, or maybe a smaller better monitor if that's what you can afford.
