Title: Great picture for the price
Review: This was to be my "second" large monitor next to my (much more expensive) LG 32" that faces me straight.The image is great. The 2 monitors don't seem to agree on colors :-DThe Samsung is much too red in HDR mode and I had to play with it until I found the proper color.I would take a star off for the control button which is not easy to reach in the back and I have trouble with the up direction. Not enough to send back or ask for a replacement, but annoying while trying to find the proper color balance. Hope I don't need to change things often

Title: This mounts really well on a monitor arm
Review: Great product with a fantastic picture. I find that it's especially a good monitor to mount on an arm. The mounting position is near smack-dab in the middle of the backplate, which means you can avoid glare and ghosting when using it. I use it as part of my MacBook setup and it's become a beloved piece of hardware in short time.

Title: 3840 x 2160
Review: If your computer will run 4 k, this monitor will give you the eye candy you are looking for. Great for video photo editing. After two weeks of usage the only downside to this monitor is the on off button. It is hard for me to turn it off. The most startling thing about this monitor is it has a built-in microphone. There are no speakers, but a speaker Jack to add speakers. I was shocked when Windows Talk Back feature worked with no external microphone plugged in. Other than those couple quirks the picture quality is fantastic.

Title: Review of UJ59 - 2018 Model -- 32 inch monitor.
Review: Received the monitor, It is a great price and has an excellent picture. Easy to set up. Two down sides. Picture starts to fade at about a 45-degree angle and the stand is not adjustable. However, for a second monitor for a portable computer neither is a problem. The stand can be adjusted by placing on a riser if needed but the height is already well suited for me and the monitor can tilt. This is an excellent monitor to serve as a bridge until the OLED monitors become less expensive.

Title: good not great
Review: first off, once again, 1 star removed bcz the carriers you choose to use lie about delivery, then dont deliver to my actual address forcing me to walk heavy boxes up 3 flights of stairs. the carriers have dollies and stuff for that, i do not, so ill keep removing a star until you gain control over your carriers.1 star removed bcz i tried to cancel this before it shipped but received an email saying it was too late to cancel, but it didnt actually ship until 30 hours later. good job people, keep it up.1 star removed because you sent a 400.00 item in a giant box with not one piece of bubble wrap. if i had the energy i would box all this up and send it back. all my packages from amazon these past 2 weeks have come with little or no bubble and im buying up parts for a VR computer, so that about 3500.00 over 3 e-tailers and 4 different carriers, all arriving in busted boxes at the wrong location with no protection. this is your job. why is it hard?so you just lost 60% of your rating for avoidable things that are persistent in your supply chain. amazon has been getting worse and worse and worse ever since it started being another e-bay with shady sellers and wildly fluctuating prices and shipping. your usefulness is coming to and end when prime video is no better than free youtube, your products are price matched , and your delivery methods are corrupted.now for the monitor. i should keep taking stars away, but i would be left with negatives. first the bezel"less". there is a bottom branded bezel, along with 1/8" of dead space. the other 3 sides all have 1/4" dead space. so you effectively have an internal bezel of non-usable screen real estate that still takes up the space a monitor that doesnt shave off inches does.next - display port. it does have 1 display port. ive read reviews where it did not, and that was the reason for my cancel request. well, that and no vesa, really, why would you not include that? seems intentionally cheap. anyway about the DP, i dont know if samsung updated this model to include it, or previous reviewers got bait and switched with a different model (this also happens here on amazon, just look at some "renewed" item listings), or simply didnt recognize the port as it looks like hdmi in the dark, and it is dark up in the cable attachment area. in any case you get one now. just one. version 1.2no vesa. you know, this is disheartening as vesa compatibility has almost become ubiquitous. so this was a choice. a choice made by someone who is completely out of touch with todays home and soho computing. its one thing to not include the vesa if you are going to give us a stand with lots of motion, and stability, and good materials. instead you get a cheap tube frame and about 5 degress of motion up and down, no side to side. the frame is so cheap , i assume, bcz they engineered the weight and design of the monitor to hold it steady. in this it is marginally successful, but only by using a lot of desk space.controls - are a joke. i do enjoy the joystick type navigation on the power button, serving double duty as the way to nav the menu. however, you get contrast, brightness, volume....oh yeah, thats it. why have a menu?documentation/box contents - you get a lot of useless information, like a warning not to pour water on it, but no product spec sheet, which i immediately hunted for to put the display port thing to rest. no case badge, no stickers of any kind, no cleaning cloth, no display port cord. nothing. im sorry, you do get a cheap 6' hdmi cable and a typical power cable.color. when i plugged it in, i had typical hd settings on my ben-q ips. so i immediately got a pop up warning for that. once i changed it to 4k settings, it filled up my screen but was washed out, grey. even now with brightness on 100, the top amazon blue nav bar looks muted and washed out. the white area where i am typing is kinda grimy grey. there are no controls to change this on the monitor. obviously you can use windows to calibrate, which i just took a time out from this review to do. setting brightness on 50 even though it looks like typing on a gym sock, i went through the process, only to find at the end, nothing changed at all. except my brightness control was reset to zero, giving me the ability to raise total brightness past the previous max. welcome because now i can see, but still washed out colors.cyber monday had some ok deals and there are screens by AOC and even LG that i should have tried. but i own lots of samsung stuff and im typically happy, so i went with this one. at 500.00 original cost i would lol in your face while i packed it up and returned it. at the 399.00 i paid i feel raw by about 150.00. this is a 250.00 monitor tops. there is way too much competition, good competition, for samsung to release this giant box of pffft.im going to keep it for either my 3rd or 4th favorite computer, but thats only bcz its here in my house already, but it wont ever be connected to any machine i use every day.skip this. people will say its the cheapest 4k so get it. but washed out colors, no vesa, simplistic controls and giant footprint on your desk make it a sure pass. i havent even tried to watch anything in 4k yet bcz it cant make web browsing look good and im too tired to get more irritated at this junk.oh, i forgot cable management. imagine the cheapest thinnest plastic ever, then make it thinner, and this is your backplate which covers the area where the stand screws to the screen and offers a hidden channel to run your pwr, dp, and hdmi cords down to the desk level. this demands careful thought as a previous reviewer ranted about the cables falling out. well, yes, the hdmi slot is too wide and it will fall out over time, as will the power cable, however you can coil and bend the wires to a point where you can make then exert upward pressure to keep them seated. no tape or glue needed. it takes time bcz you dont have alot of room to work in and you dont have a lot of room to coil up inches of cable in there. the fisher price backplate is not strong enough to hold it if you could. this was a design flaw and an obvious one that should have been caught and rectified during product testing. recessed, side facing ports with a usb 3.0 or 2 or 3 would have been a good addition, and one which most of the competition has included so once again im left scratching my head as to why samsung decided not to include these features.after i finished writing this, i have to go back and take another star off for quality of product. i hate 1 star reviews, but samsung and amazon deserve it.

Title: Excellent "budget" monitor!
Review: The colors, brightness, and clarity are all excellent on this VA panel: I am unable to determine a significant difference in color between my AW3418DW IPS (a premium gaming monitor) and this one. However, factory calibration was poorly done for my unit and others have stated the same, so it is recommended that one calibrates it. I suspect the reviews that complained about the display did not have accurate settings.To iterate how bad the calibration is, I had to move red from 50 to 38.Otherwise, this monitor's low price point comes from the lack of bells and whistles, with a rather primitive although effective stand, no USB, no speakers, and no VESA mounting. Surprisingly multi-device display is included and looks excellent.Gaming on this monitor is quite possible, however one would rather play a game such as Civilization or Minecraft rather than Counter-Strike: any gamer should know that already. Despite that, I rank it a 5 star for gaming because this is NOT a gaming monitor at 60hz, but even so I was playing games at 30 and 60 fps as a kid. 75 hz at least would have been nice, but c'est la vie.My calibration settings:R: 38G: 54B: 50Brightness: 61Contrast: 65.These values were subjectively determined via eye, so they may not work for you, and your monitor will probably need a different calibration anyways.

Review: Los utilizo en la oficina y me encantan!. El tamaño es perfecto para visualizar hojas de calculo y procesadores de palabras, asi como cualquier programa de edición de video o fotos. La resolución es excelente, su brillo es adecuado para cualquier entorno.La frecuencia de refrescar la pantalla es de 60hzTiene dos entradas de video que pueden utilizarse simultáneamente, pero el monitor se separa en dos, y puedes ver cosas diferentes de dos fuentes de video.Su angle de vision me gusto mucho, ya que no se oscurece mucho de las orillas cuando el ángulo es muy amplio.Lo unico que puedo reprocharle es que no tiene ajuste de altura, pero la verdad ni he notado que no lo tiene. Solo se puede ajustar en ángulo de arriba/abajo y ligeramente lateralmente.Viene con un cable de corriente y un cable HDMI. Se requiere ensamblar el soporte del monitor.

Review: Llevo mas de dos meses con este monitor, lo compré para mejorar el 1080p que tenÃa de la misma marca Samsung, ya que el menú es el mismo y el joystick para navegarlo también, teniendo tan buena experiencia con ese me animé con este monitor 4k, es obvio que la mejora en la imagen se iba a notar, esta increÃble jugar asÃ, tengo una tarjeta gtx1060 y los juegos los pongo en 2k para ir a no menos de 45fbs con todo en alta, me encantan los colores y el brillo, las peliculas en 4k se ven muy bien y para multitasking en el trabajo no hay nada mejor, estuve mucho tiempo pensando entre comprar este o un ultrawide de 34" pero además de que esos son mas caros tienen menos pixeles que los 4k, cabe mencionar que 32" es la resolución perfecta para monitores 4k porque es la mejor forma de aprovechar el espacio de monitor sin notar los pixeles.Como dato extra debo resaltar que aunque el instructivo lo indica en una parte algo dificil de ver, la lógica me dicctó que conectara el hdmi, que viene incluido, en el puerto 1, estuve un par de dÃas usandolo asà y notaba que aunque el monitor me decia que iba a 60fps yo no veÃa tal fluidez y me di cuenta que era porque ese puerto iba maximo a 30hrz, debe de conectarse al puerto 2 para ir a 60hrz en 4k.Hubiera sido perfecto que incluyeran un cable displayport, voy a tener que comprarlo si quiero usar la función de AMD freesync con mi tarjeta nvidia.otra cosa es que el unico defecto que encontré es que el conector de alimentación queda muy flojo en el puerto del monitor, no he tenido problemas de que se desconecte como tal porque no toco los cables de atras pero si se atropella por alguna razón se safa muy facilmente.
