Okay so ive been through around 5-6 monitors in the span of like 2 months and i couldnt seem to stick with one that i liked. One just felt too slow, another felt too bulky, etc. nothing ticked the boxes or filled that gap. Some were 450, some were 1200. Point is i have seen alot of monitors from one end to another, and boy does one check a lot of the boxes. First of all its 4k and has 144hz which compared to 165hz isnt the craziest of differences. If youre a console gamer, dont even worry about it since most games run at 60hz and 120 at most. Pc gaming wise its still smooth and playing games like battlefield and cod still look as good if not the same as 165hz. Im not the craziest or most skillful gamer but in terms of fun the monitor does amazing. The curved screen has nice curve, with good vewing angles, that doesnt feel overwhelming and actually immerses you. The colors are amazing! Very vivid and rich when you tweak the settings. Straight out of the box Ive been using the “fast” response time as well as HDR and theres no ghosting or horrendoussly over sharpening on things, like grass on fifa, unlike most other monitors. For the money i absolutely love it and is defenitely staying as my keeper. The only thing id consider as a flaw would be the stand. Only thing you can do with that is pivot the angle upwards or down. Cant move the screen horizontally or vertically. Honestly you can buy another stand for that if you REALLY need it. But the stand that comes with is just fine.

Great monitor. I've had it now for a year and haven't had any issues. The size in the specification is all wrong though. It's actually 24 in wide and not 37. Just a tad under 32 in diagonal. I wish it had a speaker since my computer speaker is really bad.

I've been looking at monitors for months and I am really happy I settled on this monitor. The price was the ultimate tipping point. It was plug and play for my xbox series x. I was able to choose 4k 120Hz with no issues. It does come with a 2.1 HDMI cable. Once you dive into the settings on your monitor, machine, and game, you can get it to look as good as you want. I was impressed with the colors and clarity. I didn't notice a difference in response time with a VA panel vs. my previous IPS 27" panel monitor if you were wondering. 31.5" allowed me to change my FOV to 120 with less visual recoil. Enough talking... Just buy it and step your game up!

I ordered the product originally on the 2nd, when i got home with it it had a massive crack. Returned it same day and put in a new order which delayed it by another week and when it came time to get the order i got a message stating it was delayed. I get that things happen but i wish there was an expedited route to take in moments where the product is recieved damaged

Best Buy had this on sale and it doesn't disappoint. Great picture, fast refresh rate. Beautiful screen. Has all the connections you could possibly need ( HDMI, USB-C, Apple).
Cons: Only one con. If you plan to mount this to a different monitor stand, the VEA mount is not to spec and slightly undersized. Luckily, I work as a fabricator and used my grinder to shave about a 1 mm of metal off of the sides of my VESA mount. If you don't have a grinder or a file you will be SOL.

Pretty good monitor and not the worst price for 4k

I was looking to upgrade my PC to 4k and needed a decent monitor for a decent price and chose this monitor. It is definitely the largest monitor i've owned. If you don't have enough room but still want two monitor you could always get a lil desk attachment for monitors, I bought one from amazon a while ago and it functions like a tv wall mount type bracket that connects to your desk and your monitor just hangs off to the side. I had to turn my second monitor sideways to be able to fit my desk with this beast.
The monitor is gorgeous, I had to change up some color settings in my nvidia control panel to make it pop more but overall, you get what you pay for. There are some streaks from shadows in some games but it really isn't that noticeable or a big deal. I recommend that you google MSI G321CU optimal settings, theres a place that reviews monitors and they messed with the settings and calibrated it to what fits best for the monitor and you can download that and apply it on your PC for better quality.
Overall, its nice to game in 4k but it isn't exactly all its hyped up to be. If you're looking at either 4k or like 1440 just go with the 1440 because 4k monitors will make you want to upgrade your GPU so if you don't already have a 4k ready GPU then just go with 1440 unless you're ready to drop some cash on upgrades lol. I went from a 3070 to a 4080 after buying this monitor and while I don't regret it, it wasn't exactly mindblowing but things do look better in 4k so you gotta decide what you want vs what your wallet wants.
For me, I just went with this because I won't need to upgrade monitors for many years after this one, not like theres gonna be 20k monitors or something coming out, we are reaching our limits so theres that.

Wanted to wait a few months of ownership before writing a biased review. But can now easily say it’s one of the better monitors I’ve had at the price point. My main use is console and couldn’t ask for more in the 16:9 ratio limits. No visible stuttering or tearing that I’ve noticed. Mainly play war thunder, racing and flying sims. And this monitor has been a dream come true for 4k and high refresh rate, even more amazing playing at 1440p of course. Would definitely recommend at this price point, after owning just about every G series Samsung monitor.
