Customer Ratings & Reviews

This 43" monitor is replacing my 30" Asus that has started bleeding through the edges of the screen after many years of use. I like the increased size but it's taking a bit of getting used to. It doesn't have the ability to be moved up and down with the included stand. It's okay but if anything is in front of it on my desk, the bottom of the screen is blocked. And that is where most of the OS menus are launched. The monitor has ability to be connected to internet directly and it includes free television content that can be streamed with the included Samsung app. Streaming apps can be installed directly onto the monitor. It has more smart functions to it than any other monitor I've owned. It has plenty of connections in the back (hdmi and DP included - and it can connect to devices wirelessly. I connected a computer wirelessly and it may work for streaming content, but there is too much lag to use that way as a computer monitor. I struggled clicking buttons and selecting text etc - the lag was too prominent to move cursers accurately. I reverted to cables. The monitor is on the very back of my desk and I have a pull out keyboard slide, so I sit back about 3.5 ft from the monitor. The monitor defaults to a 3x zoom - that made video sort of jerky motion and lost some of the benefit of being able to work in multiple apps at once. After resizing things, I see text fine and had no quality issues you sometimes see with televisions displaying mushy text. Everything is crisp. I am recommending the unit with reservations. I feel like it's a good value but I don't trust this unit to last. It appears to control its digital signal on screen as multiple smaller squares. If I were to guess, there may be about 30 smaller frames within the entire monitor surface. Those separate, in-frame squares flash from time to time - occasionally 2 or 3 will flash at once. And then sometimes the entire screen blacks out momentarily which causes all content to pause for a half a second until the screen returns. I tried to locate the cause on the Samsung site but haven't found a fix. The Asus was easy to use - just plug and go. This one takes some work to set up - I'm not using it to game so I turned those features off. I still have the issue. I may have a faulty unit, or there may be some minimum computer needed to push the unit. I feel like unit has available settings that the monitor doesn't have sufficient computing power to push. It's possible it needs a heftier graphics card on a computer - mine has an onboard graphics card. Another item is that with all the features come complication. The monitor blurs the line between a smart tv and a monitor. It has more settings than I have time to fidget with - I've been changing things for a few hours just to get the flashing to stop - unsuccessfully. The application that runs all this is fairly clunky to use. It is not intuitive and the remote should have more buttons. I think it requires the remote to switch between onboard TV streaming to using a computer input as a source. When using it, it is no easy feat to switch between TV mode and to select the DP connection as source. Every other device I've used has made this easier. How Samsung made this so unintuitive is surprising to me. There are likely easier ways to navigate, but nothing is pointing to me to it and this thing has a mini computer running the streaming service - so they could have added a get started menu. The help guide is hard to use also - when it instructs how to try to correct things, it is VERY generic so you have to research elsewhere how to change settings. I feel like I might figure out settings that work, but it may be months to find them.

Great monitor to pair with my xbox series x, huge difference in playing competitive games comparted to a tv I've noticed. the only down fall is it takes some knowledge and playing with the settings to get the full capabilities out of the monitor. Id recommend hard wiring the monitor directly into the internet and also hard wire the x box directly into the internet to get the fastest best gaming experience. You will need to take the time with the settings on the xbox as well as the monitor settings to make sure you are getting the best possible frame rates and picture. once you have that figured out, perfect. the size is great, picture and speed is phenomenal. Not sure how anyone games on smaller 27 inch monitors,, 43 inches seems just right, not to big, but definitely not small.

This thing is a beast — in the best way possible. The 43" screen makes everything feel cinematic, whether I’m gaming, streaming, or working. The 4K resolution is razor-sharp, and the HDR600 brings out deep blacks and vivid colors. It’s bright, fast, and surprisingly immersive for a flat panel. As a gamer, the 144Hz refresh rate + 1ms response time with FreeSync Premium Pro makes everything buttery smooth. No screen tearing, no lag — just flawless performance. It also works great as a productivity screen — I can run 3–4 windows side by side like a boss. It’s basically a TV-sized monitor with smart TV features built in (Samsung Tizen OS), so I can watch Netflix or YouTube without even turning on my PC. Super convenient. Minor downside: it’s big — like really big — so make sure your desk can handle it. Also, the remote is handy, but the UI can feel sluggish sometimes. Bottom line: if you want one screen to rule them all — gaming, work, movies — this monitor delivers. Pricey, yes. Worth it? 100%.

This is probaly one of the more mixed reviews I have had on a monitor. On one hand the picture quality and features of this display are far above most other $500 monitors and tvs. Your probaly not going to find a tv with mini led backlighting , vrr , 144hz , hdmi 2.1 and amd freesync at this pricerange. Plus the 43 inch size makes this far more immersive than most other gaming monitors. I have no trouble seeing the whole screen from my viewing distance. However samsungs decision to go with a va panel really holds this display back. The black smear on this display is very obvious. Especially when scrolling down with white text and a black background. While this is a drawback of va panels and not this display itself , I really think that considering this panel is being marketed as a premium pc display , having an ips panel on this should not have been too difficult. Even if the cost of this monitor would have to go up by 100 to 200 bucks it would have been worth it. The hdr on this display is also pretty lackluster. It's hard for me to recommend using it. One postive of this display tho is the black levels. With some setting changes you can get pretty good blacks however at the cost of severe black crush. There also is some noticeable blooming on the display , however its at a level thats acceptable. If you mostly use your computer for entertainment I think the display is fine. However if you plan to use this monitor for work I would find something else. My only real other complaint is the remote is pretty bad. Missed and duplicated inputs are pretty common. Its not like samsung couldn't've put a better remote in the box. I paired my solar cell remote I got from my q60a tv a few years ago and ive had no issues whatsoever.

Its solid for the sale price of $500.00. Set up didnt take as long as online reviews indicate, but yes, since it functions as a smart monitor, expect updates and connection setups. But setup was intiuitive and easy. Theres some dimming issues noticable when not in game when comparing edges to center- probably correctable in a setting, but not too big of deal. As a primary 4k gaming panel, its hard to compete with a $500.00 price point at 43".

The monitor has great color and contrast but is obviously a TV in a monitor case. It does have some slight ghosting but more noticable is the halo effect in high contrast areas such as white text on a black background. This is mostly due to the overall size vs the amount of lights available for the local dimming array. Honestly these issues haven't negatively affected any gameplay. I play cyberpunk 2077, destiny 2, and FFXIV regularly and have enjoyed every experience on this great screen.

The display looks amazing however sometimes I feel like the smart features get in the way of it being a monitor. I would like an ability to turn off the smart features and have it run a stripped down interface. @500 this monitor is a great deal and you can look past some of the annoyances but I would not pay 1k for it. If you are looking for a great gaming monitor that can also be used for day to day work this is a good choice.

Great monitor. Love the size and the resolution is a perfect fit. I have a deep desk and everything it's extremely easy on my eyes. Great price. Would recommend running with at least a 4070 TI Super or better if you plan on gaming on it.

I've seen nothing but terrible reviews for this monitor which made me add and remove it from my cart multiple times during the sale. Why would this be 50% off when all of the specifications were double anything else within the same size and price range. Well, I'm a Best Buy Total Rewards Member and one of the benefits is that I have support to help address any issues with my purchase. I took the chance and after a few weeks, I'm happy that I bought this monitor. I had been holding out for an LG because I really wanted a Thunderbolt connection for my Mac but running my Mac through the Display Port is awesome because I'm getting 120 hz and I'm happy. Not that my eyes would really notice but I'm happy when I see that number in my settings. I use this primarily for work so my work laptop is pushing 60 hz through the HDMI and again, it looks great. I was hesitant about purchasing such a large screen since we've always been told not to sit so close to a TV but wow, work is so much better when you have room to really work. I'm hoping I don't experience issues later with the screen or the software slowdown but that's what my total reward membership is there for. I have my Nintendo Switch hooked up to the last HDMI and wow, it's beautiful to play games with. I don't use the smart functions but I can see how this acting as a TV first might annoy people. it's only an extra click so don't let that deter you. I think I'm driving this monitor to the least of its capabilities so I think the more I use it, the better it's going to be. Take the chance, at $500, you can't beat it.

Ghosting around the edges can really take the shine off fast-paced content, especially in gaming or when trading windows move rapidly. And yeah, with a flat 43-inch panel, peripheral visibility definitely suffers—your neck ends up doing way more work than it should. The $550 mark might make sense for the Neo G7 if someone’s drawn to its 4K resolution and Smart TV features, but at full retail? You’re wise to be cautious.

I bought this on sale for 499, and it has amazing value! Its super bright, great colors, and local dimming support. A recent software update released (Which can be found on Samsung's website, ver 1603.1) fixes the terrible response time people commonly mention. Please note that that specific software update needs to be applied manually via USB drive, not via OTA or wifi. With the software update, the monitor gives great colors and acceptable response times.

Its the perfect size for my needs, I use it for digital design and play PS5, the colors are super vibrant and works at 120hz 4k with the PS5 it’s perfect

I purchased this product on special for 499 and honestly for this price its great. The monitor has an option to set up as an ultra wide screen. Unfortunately this feature doesn't preform as i expected. However the monitor itself works great and i am very happy with the resolution.

Only had this monitor for a couple of months, but it is working very well. Basically plug and chug. This is a very big monitor, so if aren't going to watch movies etc. with it, you might want to go with something smaller. Very good video quality, no complaints, so far.

This monitor Rocks! Super smooth 144hz, my cat thought it was a window, due to the abosolute flawless picture quality!

Overall good quality and picture, still a little studder on PS5 and Xbox but depends what the game supports. Work with both but make sure you have a proper cable as you may experience limitations in picture quality or capability otherwise.

Screen was not great with default srttings but making sure chroma was properly set, along with some tweaks to black levels and contrast, it is now a very nice screen, especially on sale for 500$ new.

Huge monitor! Really nice overall. Only complaint is the power/function button. It is in a terrible location, difficult to feel and impossible to see. Also very difficult to use it for mode changes. Don't lose the remote!

Picture is nice but it really take a lot on tuning and you have to change the setting between gaming and watching movies/TV so it became more of hassle to use
