I run 32” 4k. It’s not perfect but I don’t think I could go back to 27”

Waiting for a reasonably priced 32” 5k with a decent panel to appear

Would be an instant buy for me
Exactly what I'm doing))) I'm hoping Apple will come out with one, I really would prefer not to have to buy the XDR)))
 
Ive always found it difficult to find a great all-round monitor, that also helps saves on desktop clutter. Good speakers, smart TV function, good display, multiple connectivity… in a compact package thats perfect for a small room or bedroom.

The samsung range this monitor belongs to comes very close to ticking so many of those boxes…
 
That's fair. I did, and I spent about a week hopelessly trying to calibrate it, but it's really not in the same class as Apple displays AT ALL. I'm sure it's a fine device for a college student, presuming they aren't studying anything design-related. :D

I bought it last week. In general, I wouldn't say garbage, but the display quality is subpar to many less expensive displays. Not in sharpness, but it looks very washed out. Almost as if having a white film over it.

I'm keeping it for now. What won me over other monitors is that the design is nice, and in that price range, most monitors are ugly.

I think I'll save for an Apple Display, but for now, it works for my needs.

Yes, that was one of the problems — how washed out the picture was.

Speakers are not a strong monitor for this monitor. But then again, you can use Bluetooth speakers no problem.

For sure… it’s always a pity when they include speakers but fail to make a good go of it. Most monitors speakers are so bad that you wonder why they bothered…

I'm honestly hoping for not apple so that isn't overpriced with a bunch of features I don't need

I have no need in a monitor for cameras, speakers, usb ports, audio outputs, airplay support or any "smart" features

just a nice 32" 5k ips panel without too wide of bezels, one DisplayPort input and one hdmi input

I don't even care about the stand since it will just go on the mount that's already on my desk

Well, I have no problem with any other brand coming out with it :)
 
If I may ask, what is "smart" about it? And how does that help the customer after all?
 
That’s weird but I cannot find any review of the 27 inch version. I am wondering if it is the same matrix (in terms of quality) as 32” version (which was quite terrible for any professional usage).
 
Paid $235 for this monitor. One of my best purchases ever, hopefully it lasts.
