I use it for streaming and couldn’t be happier. The picture is terrific and all the features are top grade. I will keep this in use for a long time to come.

I researched monitors for about two days straight, poring over all the options and details and debates. I initially got a Dell 32

I wanted an ultrawide monitor to replace three 1600×1200 monitors. This monitor isn’t terrible, but the resolution is smaller than I wanted, and without a curve it’s hard to read text at the left and right sides. I returned it and bought a larger curved monitor.

i love this monitor. i didnt even know how much i needed this until i started using this new monitor. it is big, i have windows 11 so it sets up multiple screens for me and i don’t even need to add a 2nd computer, although i could. im so productive now at work that i sometimes don’t realize what time it is because i can accomplish so much. definitely get this monitor.

I received my Samsung Ultra wQHD monitor a few weeks ago, and wow!, the size and brightness of this screen is impressive. i was extremely excited to see what Samsung DEX would look like and perform on this screen, and it does not disappoint, settings were perfect right out of the box. with my multi tasking, pulling up multiple documents to work on and researching in the browser, i have essentially created a complete desktop setup for less than $500.00 that performs seamlessly and is more than enough for the tasks i am going to require of it. The unboxing and setup was extremely easy, no instructions necessary, in a world where poeple pay IT departments to do anything tech related, this makes them obsolete!

Crisp display. Did not come with a remote control, makes accessing options difficult.

First off, one can’t deny the benefit and beauty of so much screen real estate. The flexibility to view 2 documents/screens side-by-side, entire webpages with minimal scrolling, or multiple inputs using PIP/PBP, makes this a versatile monitor for work or play. My primary usage is for business applications in a work-from-home setting. I connect two laptops using the dual HDMI inputs in PC mode and extend the displays. It also includes a DisplayPort and headphone input for added versatility. This gives me the equivalent of three screens to view my work. Where this monitor really shines is crisp text even with 12 pt. fonts, minimal glare, accurate color reproduction, and the eye saver mode for extended viewing comfort (reduces blue light output). Although I can’t comment directly with this monitor, it does feature FreeSync (FS) too, but my graphics card does not support it. I have seen FS in action elsewhere, and it is an added bonus if you are a gamer with a compatible card. You can also use the monitor for TV viewing due to the dual HDMI inputs, and the picture quality is very good. You will need to change the setting to AV mode, and you can also adjust the aspect ratios and other settings to suit your preferences. There are a few aspects of the monitor that are not ideal for a user such as myself (work-from-home), although I suspect they would not impact most people. In the interest of transparency, I will include them in my review. As mentioned earlier, I use both inputs simultaneously throughout the day for viewing work content. When I have a need to switch to a full screen view of either of the inputs, I have to select the small jog button on the back of the monitor to change inputs. This requires it to cycle through the inputs each time until it reaches the one I want. There are no software shortcuts or hot-keys to simplify this process, and it is not uncommon for me to do this a dozen or more times a day. Not only is it a bit slow, I worry about the durability of the jog button with so much use. Also, there are no height or pan/swivel adjustments, only tilt. For me, I like to stand up periodically during the work day, so it is not at an optimal viewing angle during this scenario. The monitor is light, so it is easy to physically pivot the monitor, but then the stand moves things on your desk. Again, these are not deal-breakers, but small annoyances. Overall, I would fully recommend it to those looking for a widescreen monitor.

I typically work from home and utilize a dual monitor in my home office setup. My old monitor developed a large line right down the center of the screen, so I was in the market for a new monitor!! I knew I wanted a larger monitor. I figured if I’ll invest in a new monitor, I should find one that is much larger. I wasn’t aware of the Ultrawide monitor category, and took a look at a few of the options out there. I decided upon the Samsung QHD Ultra Wide monitor for a few reasons. With this monitor I can use two HDMI cables and connect to my laptop and get rid of both of my old monitors. The resolution is stunning and there’s no sacrifice on quality when I’m using a dual screen setup. As you can see in the photos, I’m multitasking by streaming on one screen and browsing on the right side of the screen! The Picture By Picture is perfect for my needs and at 34″ I don’t need to zoom in on emails or other text documents. Well worth the price and I’ll have the Samsung QHD Ultra Wide for a number of years! Glad I made the investment and the monitor is an excellent balance of performance, quality, resolution and price!! Great work Samsung!

The SJ55W easily replaced my previous two monitor setup. The ultrawide aspect ratio gave more than enough real estate for multiple applications. This monitor truly was made for multitasking. Image quality was excellent as well; near-IPS color reproduction and wide viewing angles. I was actually pretty impressed with the picture-in-picture and picture-by-picture feature. I have a 2nd computer connected to the second hdmi port on the monitor and I am able to quickly switch to that second source and even display both at the same time. It would be even better if there was a keyboard shortcut to switch inputs, but it still works pretty seemlessly. Pros: Screen real estate, picture quality, unique features such as PIP and PBP, AMD freesync Cons: Cost (although not too bad when you consider it replaces 2 monitors), activating PIP and PBP could be a little easier Take home – a beautiful-looking multitasking monitor with a brilliant picture.

you need to use screw to open back stand connection, and loose it, tilt to the angle you need, then back to original standing set.

Like wow! This monitor really changes everything. I can get things done so much quicker by using the screen splitting technology picture by picture is the easiest way to complete a lot of work at once which makes it is so amazing for work and I just love this. I can’t say enough good about this monitor. The picture quality is fantastic. Screen clarity is superb. This is just the trick to keep me up to date on my work so I can spend more time with my family and doing the things I love. Thank you for the opportunity to try out this wonderful product. Samsung really out did yourself. The quality and picture are just excellent. I am tend to get migraines when working on a computer but this one I do not! This is beyond amazing!!!

Where do I begin?? I’m EXTREMELY (and I wish that I clukd make this letters bigger) disappointed with the quality of this monitor. Right from the moment that I turned this monitor on, without even plugging a computer in yet, I began to see different color lines of pixels. I read a review about “seizing Samsung” and of course that I ignored it because I am a devoted (was maybe) Samsung user and ordered the monitor regardless. The color was (I am returning this junk) horrible, dull, yellowish colors (my laptop looked 100% better. Of course that I played with the settings and resolutions, without success. Besides what everyone else’s says, if you can stay away from this monitor do so. Again, I am a devoted Samsung users, but this monitor has lots to be desired.

My Samsung Ultra Wide 34′ monitor has been a great addition to my workspace. its sleek design provides me with more desk space. The image clarity is outstanding, it reduces eye strain, and the image quality is amazing. the screen splitting capabilities make it easier to multitask. As a Network Engineer, working with multiple programs simultaneously such as analyzing spreadsheets to compare data, check emails, and editing and configuration tasks increase my productivity. In addition, the image quality and screen size of this monitor is ideal gaming. I enjoy this monitor so much that I am purchasing one for my wife

At work I use multiple monitors, which works well overall, but the split in between and the multiple stands makes it a good, but not ideal option. This monitor works very well for multitasking as it’s essentially the size of two monitors placed side-by-side, but offers significant advantages such as having a single stand and having no gap in between. I can comfortably use two programs side by side, which significantly improves my efficiency. I regularly use Excel, PowerPoint, Word and web browsers side by side for both work and school. In all cases I have used Windows built in features to anchor programs to one side of the screen or the other, but I know that when I have more advanced use cases I’ll be able to use the built in split screen and Picture in Picture modes. The monitor is easy to set up, looks gorgeous with good color reproduction and a high resolution (3440×1440 resolution) and has a good menu system. The menu is controlled using a small joystick in the back. It takes a few minutes to get used to using, but then is much more intuitive and effective than other menu systems I have used in the past. I recommend the monitor for those who want or need the extra space.

My new Samsung screen monitor has been a game changer. Not only for my work productivity but also for my eyesight. Everything is ready to go,right out of the box. I went from having two monitors to One, and I don’t miss a thing. I work with different databases and the screen split option is perfect and functional. I can also view more of the documents I’m working on without zooming in and out. The design Of the monitor is nice and sleek. The stand doesn’t take up a whole lot of space on my desk and I’m so grateful I no longer have a bunch of ugly cables draping across my desk. The monitors menu (JOG button) is easy to navigate, easy to reach and is also where you’ll find the eye saver settings which I highly recommend. Low blue light settings means no more ugly blue blocking glasses & No more daily headaches after working on my computer for several hours. Everyone who has walked into my office compliments the beauty and spectacular screen display this monitor gives. Highly recommend. see the before & after below

Very happy with my purchase. I plan to purchase at least one more to stack landscape above my existing monitor. To address the review with the power cables: I have had absolutely no issues from day one. Instead, I was really thrilled with the cable management clip in the back, it cleans up the look a lot. Try plugging it in better is about all I can think of. Gaming mode really boosts the visuals. The monitor has a million awesome settings I’ll never use like PIP and all sorts of other display options. The only thing I wish it had for this price point is built in speakers, but I can live without it.

However, I feel that I was lied to, as the monitor states it can handle up to 120hz. It is native 75 and can be overclocked to 100hz. For the price I got it, it was a steal. If you are trying to game with it, there are better options.

Overall a really good monitor for the money. Good colors, great resolution, good brightness for indoors. Well worth the price!

Bought this for work, not gaming. It does very nicely. I connected to my Surface Dock with a Mini-DisplayPort to DisplayPort cable and it works very well.
