It’s the best for gaming and watching TV shows or like Netflix . Basically streaming music or movies and TV shows. I really love it for PC gaming. I wish I had the money for equipment like this I wish.

This monitor is perfect for both working and gaming as well. I am fully satisfy with this product and do not have any comments on it. Thanks to Samsung 🙂

First, I really enjoy this monitor. I can’t see myself ever going back to a non-curved monitor. That said, my problem is that the monitor tilts to the right by 1/2″ to 3/4″. I placed a paperclip in the joint where the arm attaches to the back. It’s now level. [I had returned one other with the same issue, so the issue must not be a one off. Btw, my desktop is level, I checked].

The Skinny – Impressive physical build, excellent picture, great connectivity, makes users very smug, pricey From unboxing this, your know it’s special. It’s surprisingly lightweight given the size of the screen and the arm is reassuringly sturdy. Connectivity options are impressive and good to see they have tried to hide cables behind a flip out panel – adding to the nice simplistic design and lines. The power brick is huge though – literally the size of a brick. Picture quality is bright, vibrant and sharp – this is dependant on your inputs. The screen doesn’t seem that big – aided by the curve and is very pleasing to use. I’ve had mutiple spreadsheets and browsers option and couldn’t help but feel smug with the screen real estate. The in-built speakers are punchy but lacks solid bass. They’re good and very usable, reaching very high volumes. Firing up PBP options is where the limitations of this ultra wide format start to show. You will end up with some black bars on each side because the ultra wide format means that standard resolutions don’t make use of the full horizontal width. I found this quite a lot with playing movies as you need content in the right resolution to make full use of the width, else you end up stretching to fit. The monitor lifts and rises effortlessly and tilt adjusts well – it doesn’t swivel, however I’m just nick picking now. The power button placement on the back is simple, but annoying to use after a while. They could have opted to put this on the side or bottom to make it more accessible. I’ve loved every second of using this, and it makes you smug to show off to your friends. The thing that lingers is whether or not the price tag is worth it. It’s a very expensive purchase if you are simply looking for a bigger monitor to do some multi-tasking. For gaming, it’s a very nice setup but you can’t help but feel asking if the price justifies this – could you simply buy a LED TV instead and save some money. This needs to be at a price point of 400 to make it a competitive purchase – otherwise it’s a very lavish purchase.

Now a multi tasking beast for work with this new monitor !

I love my monitor. I use it for everyday use such as working from home….very colorful. My best feature is high resolution
Cassandra Dibbert (verified owner) –
I will use this monitor when I am multitasking. I would have one movie playing on this monitor while I am taking care of business using the other monitor.

Worth every penny. I can have lots of items open and viewable at the same time – such as multiple Excel files, websites, PDFs and emails – because of the 21:9 aspect ratio. So much better than a traditional 16:9 widescreen monitor. I’m using a MacBook. Also great price, fast shipping and great service!

I really wanted to love this monitor. I was so excited for the fact its thunderbolt and would work with my mac; I was so excited by the 34″ wide screen allowing two sources side by side. It is one of the few monitors that actually also works with the new iPad Pro as an external display. My problem with it is that the black levels and contrast and brightness are average at best – for a quantum dot monitor – this is not what I expected. I can’t see any detail when its a dark video or scene on any source. It is just a blur of greyness and to make it worse the brightness levels seem to be very bright and bright – but it doesn’t get bright enough to resolve any contrast in those black videos and I can’t turn down the brightness enough to make it useable at night. I honestly cannot use this monitor at night as its just too bright. The manual brightness settings are useless. The calibration of colours is terrible. And the way it upscales or changes the aspect rations of different sources stretches everything out so it is unwatchable. Considering how good Samsung TVs are it seems like they haven’t taken any of the features of the TV’s and used them on this monitor. So I give this 3 stars – average – it is better than cheap basic monitors and its connectivity options are fantastic. It looks good too with the design. And if your not used to better displays then you will probably think it looks great, but it doesn’t. It’s good value for money; but a huge disappointment for me. If you set your expectations low then you will love it. If you expect Samsung to deliver a monitor that is as good at the TV’s then you will hate it.

I love this as it is awsome for gaming and the other great thing about is having the space on the screen to have everything I need on there.
Gregg Friesen (verified owner) –
Best in gaming I think. Best in resolution and high-speed graphics

My h.s. daughter uses to make trailers. Its nice for us as parents to see how our child can really showcase artistic abilites plus curved screen shows well in family room .
Remington Abbott (verified owner) –
Have used it for office work as well personal usage, no doubt it’s great for office work where you need multiple windows with splits and this screen just nails it. And with curved, it just adds up more comfort on the view. The perfection on screen resolution just comfort my eyes. Best for office work. I play less gaming, but its also good for personal use like multi tasking with the help of wide screen.

Play games on it. Very cool. Good color and great picture quality
Adeline Price (verified owner) –
This monitor is amazing. I think it is one of the better ones out on the market for gaming. I really enjoy the quality.
Albin Bechtelar (verified owner) –
One of the best designs around, the blacks are deep and colors are vibrant.
Maudie Murray (verified owner) –
The screen has excellent quality, you wont be disappointed. However i’m having issues with the docking station. With works with my Dell G5, after installing all drivers. Still not working with my HP X360.
Morris Rowe (verified owner) –
USB c type cable as docking solution. No need of expensive docking stations. The wide monitor can split in to 2. Comfortable, convenient ease in using etc…
Orland Botsford (verified owner) –
This is one of the best monitors I have used for various tasks. Day To day use, watching YouTube videos, doing some light to moderate gaming. Playing Call Of Duty was an awesome experience with a wider field of view. This screen will not disappoint no matter what the task is.

he Samsung CJ791 is an amazing monitor with a stunning display. I have used it for over a week now and I am super impressed with it so far. Its an ultrawide display which feels a bit awkward at the start but you get used to it pretty quickly. The curved screen with vibrant colours gives a highly immersive experience with watching videos or carrying out graphics or design activities. I have used dual screens along with my laptop screen for many years but ever since I have started using Samsung CJ971, this is the only screen I use now for my work. Some further thoughts -Aesthetics The monitor has a thin brushed aluminium bezel and base with glossy white body at the back. The monitor looks quite elegant in the room. -Setup The setup of the monitor was quite straight forward. There are multiple connectivity options including HDMI ports, mini Display Port or Thunderbolt 3.0 / USB C. The Thunderbolt 3.0 provides the added benefit of charging the MacBook Pro through the single cable thus reducing the desk clutter. The screen height is adjustable and it comes with a wall mountable bracket as well. -Colors & Features This is where the monitor stand out. The screen produces very sharp and bright images. I was hardly able to see any difference in the color tones, image sharpness and quality between Samsung CJ971 and my 2018 MacBook Pro. The PBP (Picture-by-Picture) mode of the monitor gives you the ability to connect two sources to the monitor which appear side-by-side. This allows you to have the same traditional “dual screen experience” through a single monitor. I have tried using the Applications/Videos in full screen mode but the sheer size of the screen doesn’t give a great experience. Also in full screen video mode, you see “black bars” on the sides and bottom due to 21:9 unusual aspect ratio. It’s a great monitor for gaming and multi-tasking but not a substitute for a TV (in my opinion). The 7W built-in speakers in the monitor are of decent quality but don’t expect a Sonos / Bose quality sound. With all these great features, the only downside I feel is the need to upgrade my desk which was presiously OK for a 21″ screen but cannot accomdate this beast. Overall, it’s a fantastic monitor with great picture quality and value for money. I highly recommend it for all gamers and multi-taskers out there.
