Samsung CHG90 Series LC49HG90DMNXZA 49" 3840 x 1080 1ms 144Hz 2x HDMI DisplayPort Mini-DisplayPort HDR AMD FreeSync USB Hub QLED Curved Gaming Monitor

Pros: 1. Huge display with fantastic picture. 2. Offers wide viewing angle. 3. Fast. 4. Sturdy stand.

Cons: None.

Overall Review: 1. Back panel USB / Headset hook are only useable if you have access to the back of course. not easy to reach over from the front. 2. Perhaps a higher res panel would have been good, but I think Samsung nailed this generation's tech perfectly for speed and picture. It is better than I thought it would be. 3. It is very easy to reduce font size, zoom out, etc, to make use of the large screen in browsers, etc, with a large 1080 screen. With other panels offering higher res you often make fonts larger, zoom in, so it is essentially the same practice. Clearly it lacks pixels, but you wanted that for speed, right? Yup! 4. I replaced my 3x 1920x1200 (5760x1200) eyefinity rig with this and immediately realized I did the right thing. 5. The other option was to go 3x 2k or 4k monitors and buy two or three top end GPUs, I just got tired of bezels, complexity, and cost. 6. "Big" wide screen is great. 7. I use two Asus R9 Fury Strix (Crossfire). Apparently these received HDR support last year from AMD. Fully supported DisplayPort version 1.2a (older DP versions don't support HDR) @ 10bit, 120hz refresh rate (on a 1080p screen). If my GPU's were newer I'd get DP version 1.4, and the 144hz from this monitor. 8. I thought I was having displayport problems, but it seems HDR isn't a perfect science yet... Everything works great in games and movies, but Windows desktop is washed out. This is a common complaint for Windows 10 users and not related to the monitor. In Windows 10 it's easy to turn off HDR in Display Properties, but you might just get used to it or tweak the monitor presets. 9. The monitor came with firmware version 1003, and 1008 is available from Samsung's product page.

Overall Review: I have had no issues with this monitor. This is coming from someone who despises Samsung...I have a 4k TV from Samsung and I have always regretted the purchase. I was VERY skeptical and did a lot of research before buying this, especially considering the cost. I was surprised at how wonderful it has been so far. The limitations of the monitor are usually only due to the GPU or the settings you've set up. The menu interface on the monitor is intuitive and straightforward. I have live wallpaper set up and it's a beautiful sight and very relaxing after a long day of work. The only "con" I would say, is that the mount doesn't rise very far. Other than that it really is a spectacular sight. I have been impressed and EXTREMELY relieved considering the financial investment. I've done a bit of gaming on it and also have no complaints there. I have no doubt that some of these ship with some faulty hardware, and that would be an insane letdown...I feel for those who've been that unfortunate. The only problem I have with the purchase itself was the late shipping, courtesy of UPS. But it is that time of year, so I just let it go. If you are considering this product, I'd order it from a good vendor and just hope for the best that you don't get one that has a defective part. It really is pretty spectacular.

Pros: very large work space super bright great for gaming

Cons: 2 stuck pixles but you get use to it. Most annoying thing is once it goes to sleep you have to turn on/off several times to wake it support was no help. Samsung support is a joke!

Overall Review: Works well when it works but mine died after 13 months I have a 3yr warranty but good luck getting a repair or replacement nearing 3 months still not fixed! Just keep getting new ticket numbers and transferred to different call centers which blame other departments for the delay My first Samsung monitor and my last.

Pros: * Vibrant colors * Smooth motion * Easy-to-use GUI (you do have to read the manual the first time to get a handle on where everything is, but after the first time it's super easy) * Bright panel that doesn't crush dark/shadowy images (think the nighttime scenes in your favorite episode of Supernatural) * It ships with one of every cable (HDMI, DP, etc.)

Cons: * If you want to do PBP mode, you have to switch it to single-input mode to adjust the color mode (cinema, dynamic, etc.), which it'll keep when you go back to PBP mode; seems like it should be more straightforward than all that * It ONLY ships with one of each cable; it only came with one DisplayPort cable, but for people like me that need PBP mode I think Samsung should've included two (I had another one lying around but still)

Overall Review: This replaced two AOC 21:9 monitors, and even though 32:9 isn't quite 42:9, it's still an improvement because there's no bezel, everything is calibrated the same because it's two screens on a single panel, and there's a single power cable where I used to have two. I had some strong reservations about the fact that this was curved (I've steadfastly refused to buy anything curved up to this point, in this case it wasn't a choice as much as a lack of options). The curved display DOES take some getting used to at first, but after a few days you don't even notice it, and in some ways the curved surface actually seems better suited to the super-ultrawide aspect ratio. I wouldn't want curved displays for everything (I have a laptop and a TV in the same room, both flat, and they work just fine even with a curved display in the mix), but for this 32:9 display it actually works very well. If you've been considering a curved monitor but have reservations, this is the advice I can offer: if you're sitting very close to your monitor and/or it's 21:9 or wider, make it a curved one; if you sit far away or just have a 16:9 display, I don't think it would be worth investing just to have one. Pay attention to the usual specs about colors and brightness and refresh rates first, since those are what really count, but don't be scared off if the only ones you can find are curved.

Pros: HDR quality, colors, response time, UI and easy of use. SIZE SIZE SIZE!!!!!

Cons: Viewing angle (expected due to panel), some tweaking required for 240hz with 30 series Nvidia cards.

Overall Review: Monitor performs as advertised with the exception of 240hz on 30 series Nvidia GPUs. To correct the black screen/stutter issue use Nvidias hotfix driver 456.98, turn off adaptive refresh rate on monitor and done :-). Im sure itll be perfected in future drivers and Monitor firmware updates. Monitor will likely ship with an outdated firmware so recommend updating it to the most current one.

Overall Review: It's to big.... and I freaking love it. It's to much... but I freaking love it. I had a 34 inch ultra wide. Upgraded to this. Wish the LED on the back changed colors.... works great for productivity and gaming. 120hz is more than enough for me and my little 3080 ti. I always buy Samsung when it comes to monitors.

Pros: Size! Is definitely the right resolution for a monitor like this. Color and brightness are amazing. Light bleed on the edges is less than I expected. Don't let the curve scare you, not as radical as you might expect after you start using it. Games that fully support the resolution look amazing! Multitasking is incredible! Replaced a 34" 2560 x 1080 monitor - so much more desk top work space! I haven't used a multi-monitor setup in years, and this one will keep me from ever considering one again!

Cons: - Only 3 refresh rates are supported- 60, 120, 240. Cannot tune this setting currently. - Back lighting zones are large - most noticeable when screen is mostly black. - Required firmware update out of the box - fairly easy to accomplish. - Doesn't always recognize video signal during computer restarts. Better since firmware update manual switching to another source and back fixes this. Currently there are known driver issues with AMD and nVidia graphics.

Overall Review: I am currently driving with an ASUS Strix 5700XT. At 240Hz I have noticed some artifacting on occasion, mostly with games that push the card hard (RedDead2 was one of them). Right now, 120hz with Freesync on gives me the smoothest result. In my opinion, the higher resolution more that makes up for reduced graphic settings if you cannot currently upgrade your video card. I do expect driver bugs to be resolved rather quickly. This monitor is a first for size - speed.

Pros: This product is honestly the greatest purchase I have made in a long time, like before GPUs were so dang expensive kind of great. I used a standard Ultrawide 1440p monitor at 100hz and it was quite immersive, or at least at the time. I studied this monitor ever since it was announced. Seems too good to be true with the specifications, but it meets every itch a gamer/multi-tasker/experiencer loves. Most modern games support the 32:9 aspect ratio, and though it may seem like too much, you are "IN" the game when you play. Despite the 1080p resolution, the 144hz, the 1ms response time and the less stress on my GPU (from the 1440p Ultrawide monitor) makes it for a full immersive experience.

Cons: The only con you may experience is the regret you will have if you enjoy gaming or multi-tasking and you give this up. But in all honesty, after using this for over 6 months now, this has saved me money and a pain of buying a new tv just to be disappointed. You have "Two" screens at your disposal. Xbox and switch play on it flawlessly with minimal input lag compared to a television. Still input lag cause it is a console, but not as unresponsive.

Overall Review: Some complain about how wide it is or how long the legs are on the stand, but honestly with the size you are dealing with, not including the amazing amount of height, tilt, swivel options there are, it fits fine. I know most people don't have a lot of space on their desk, and with that being so, you probably aren't that invested enough to purchase this monitor. If you game, multi-task, or like running two monitors on one monitor (AIO solution) constantly, then it is worth it. But if this is a casual monitor you use, then don't get it. Not cause of price, but because you will think more negatively about it compared to someone who will "actually" constantly use it.
