Seems like every year my vision is getting worse. I bought this monitor because of the size and thought it would help me with gaming. Well, it helps to a degree, but at some point skill is required. The monitor is bright and clear, I'm using one of those monitor arms that clamps onto the desk and you can move the screen around. It's kinda funny, another reason I bought it is because of the 240hz refresh rate. Does it help? I can't really tell, since my other monitor is a 27" Alienware that also has 240hz. I'll have to try hooking up another monitor that only has 60hz. If anything, it looks impressive and I don't have any complaints. Hey... I deserve to splurge once in a while :)

Absolutely Incredible Monitor

After trying 8 different gaming monitors including the 27 inch version of this monitor, I finally decided on this one and have no regrets. The contrast is exceptional, the motion is incredibly smooth, the color is amazing, and the input lag is remarkable. The only issue anyone may have is with the pixel density or DPI on a 32" screen. However, this is not an issue with the monitor, just the resolution at this size.
Others have mentioned issues with flickering with G-Sync or freesync enabled. I have not had this issue at all and from what my researched has shown me it is because my cared supports display port with DSC and can maintain a high refresh rate. Ensure your firmware is up to date and that your video card can handle 240hz with 10 bit color at 1440p (mainly 20 series or later cards support this) and you will be beyond happy with this monitor. Horizon Zero Dawn, Modern Warfare, and every other game I mainly play have come out smoother than ever on ultra and the picture is breathtaking. Samsung has finally made a VA panel that suits gamers.
I also would like to note that it seems quality control may be an issue with these monitors. My first G7 (27 inch) had a hair literally sealed into the screen. I realize things happen in manufacturing and at this price it should not have been missed but the replacement has been flawless.

Saw some scratches on top left (the plastic frame), screen and everything is perfect though! I notice right bottom of screen (above the rbg light), the area seems a little burnt out? This occurred after a year, barely noticeable unless you have a white screen

Well I’ve had this for a few years and it still works amazingly. However, it has one flaw. The button the bottom doesn’t work properly anymore. Worked fine for about 6months now it’s well “wonky”. Other than that it’s been an amazing monitor and I have no plans on replacing it anytime soon.

Very happy with the size and picture quality. I was contemplating a widescreeen monitor, but wasn't sure. When this item went on sale, I decided to give it a try. I have had none of the issues that seem to have plagued the early versions of this monitor. I am running an i7 and a 2070. My monitor came in a brown box and had a red dot on the box. This may have been updated at the factory to correct the issues. If anything changes, I will update this review.

This monitor is great for gaming. I do play a lot of 1st person shooter games so I would recommend this monitor for guys like me. I play on a PC with a 3080 GPU. The monitor can go up to 240hz. Although I haven’t been able to get that much on 1440p on new games. Still it has smooth gameplay on most games on high to ultra settings.
Pros-I have to say the response time and input lag on this monitor is worth the hype. I really feel like everything happens whenever I push a key or mouse click. When I do use a controller it also is pretty instant.
I was fortunate to have a monitor with the new firmware already downloaded and I didn’t have any issues with flickering or ghosting. Out of the box I did do some adjusting on the settings.
Cons-The 1000r curve isn’t really a deal breaker. While gaming I don’t really notice it but doing normal day to day stuff I notice it more. I feel like the gsync holds back the full potential of this monitor. So, I turned it off and it seems to help the performance in my opinion.
Is it worth the money? If you can stand the curve I would say yes it is. The performance of this monitor is fantastic.

Works okay, there are horizontal lines across the entire screen, they show really bad on certain colors like red and blue. Maybe it's been defective since day one? Not sure. For an expensive monitor this is kind of crap.

I'll preface by saying that I use this monitor for gaming. That being said it is got to be one of the best out there for that. Having G-Sync and FreeSync on the monitor means that I can use the monitor for both my computer gaming and Xbox gaming needs.
You don't realize how the tech from 240 hertz refresh rate helps till you see it first hand. Previously I would complain about not hitting targets that were moving due to ghosting done on my old monitor. Now I know I just missed or I actually hit the target.
One feature that is awesome is the red dot sight that is in the menu. You can load up your favorite fps game aim down sight and move the position of the sight on to be perfectly center with the game. Using this has made me better at figuring out where the center of my screen is.
The curve of this monitor is something that I love as well. One word: IMMERSION! And this monitor does that amazingly.
I have seen posts about this monitor flickering and let me first say that I never noticed it until it was brought to my attention. The flickering I observed was only when opening an game on PC from the desktop in full screen mode. Finally its pretty straight forward to fix via firmware update at Samsung's website. After the firmware is updated I haven't noticed anything.
The 32 inch is a big boy and consideration should be taken into account of how much desk space you can afford to give up for it. But if you are at this part of my review then you will probably make the room for it. Personally I use a Veridesk monitor stand and it has been excellent.
Before warned though... This monitor will make you look down on everyone as a lord to a peasant might.
