Samsung LC24F390FHNXZA 24-inch Curved LED Gaming Monitor (Super Slim Design), 60Hz Refresh Rate w/AMD FreeSync Game Mode

I am have been a Samsung consumer my whole life, I own their refrigerator with monitor, TV, Washer, etc. That being said, this will be the first time I have provided a poor review and especially in a company I value and respect, reason being I am a strong believer in an honest effort to "right a wrong". In this particular case, I purchased the monitor around Feb 18th, give or take a week for delivery. It was my first Monitor I purchased New, which I know makes me sound like dork, but I was excited, especially for a curved monitor. That being said, the monitored arrived, sharp looking monitor, light, awesome, except for the fact that the stand stem cannot be removed from the back of the monitor. It is VESA compatible, but pending how the monitors back will be facing (to a wall or away from away) could deter you from this monitor. It did not bother me, as noted still believe in Samsung products, but not in this case. After connecting my monitors I was in work station heaven, when a couple months into owning it, I noticed a black spec in the middle of my monitor. I should note, I do not game, this monitor is for work, which I work on a computer for 8-12 hours 5-6 days a week, as a pharmaceutical clinical oversight manager,. If the issue was off center, I may not have noticed it, but in the middle of my monitor, where I work on excel spreadsheets all day long, mistaking a black spec as a decimal point could be a costly mistake. Escalated the issue to Samsung, who has always demonstrated superior customer service, attempted to help me the first time, only to then slam the door on my face and tell me that the monitor is covered by warranty for 3 years, however when a pixel dies , it requires 5 pixels to below before it can repair the issue and if I decided to submit the monitor it would only be returned to me as is because it does not meet the required dead pixels. Completely . useless and unacceptable, what Samsung customer service demonstrated to me that day is they do not believe nor stand behind the quality of their work, in turn, allowing one of millions of loyal consumers to live with their faulty product and begin to search elsewhere for another competing electronic company who continues to treat their customers with the respect and hospitality. All in all, I pray my situation was a fluke, but look out for burned out Pixels. Where Samsung fell short, Amazon once again demonstrated superior customer service and helped me address the issue. Thank you Amazon.

Install Flash Player PROs: Curved screen, decent quality. CONs: BSOD, flickering issue, Samsung support process, only "decent" quality. I bought two of these at the same time. One of them works as advertised, but one had a flickering issue around the edges of shapes that contrast. Very hard on the eyes. FWIW, the issue only happened when plugged into HDMI; VGA was OK but thats not a valid configuration for my setup. After a bunch of chat and phone support time wasting, they gave me a return auth and I sent the monitor back to Samsung for repair. Received it back 2 weeks later. The repair notes said they fixed the issue "NO COLOR", which wasnt an issue but OK. Samsung chat subsequently told me they "replaced the main PCB Board". Upon receiving it, I eagerly set it up to try it out. Instantly, my computer blue screens when I plug in the monitor. Well, thats one way to fix it. Happens every time. Now Samsung wants me to ship the monitor back again. Not sure if Ill bother - this thing is a big time waster. Notes: When I took the bad monitor down to send it back to Samsung, I replaced it with an older Acer flatscreen I have (similar specs). So its been a month-long literally side-by-side comparison with the "good" CF390. For the record, the Acers video quality is actually much better than the Samsungs. Color, clarity, refresh are all easier on the eyes - its a very noticeable difference. The Acer is flat and glossy (which I hate) but its actual screen quality is notably higher than the Samsung. Maybe a some quality is sacrificed with the curved screen... Bottom line: if it worked as advertised, this is a 4-star monitor. Cheap, curved, and OK screen quality. But with only a 50/50 shot at it working, plus the ridiculous Samsung warranty process: a single star is all it merits.

These monitors are probably great if you are just using them for games. I bought these hoping to have two side-by-side in the corner of my desk and use for work. I found them to be difficult to use with the curve and felt abnormal for reading text on the curved monitors. I returned and purchased regular, flat monitors

I use a laptop for all computing and only tolerate the small screen when I have to use it away from home. As soon as I am home I hook up this monitor and it is such a relief. Looks great and hooks up in a jiffy and takes up very little desk space. Very easy on my 75 year old eyes!!! I dont use it for watching movies but I think it would be very adequate for that as well as general computing needs.

Great monitor, love the design and clarity. I do wish that the entire stand could be removed for vesa mounting. Not a big deal though because it still mounts. I bought 3 of them for my desktop and they turned out awesome. I linked the stand I bought for them to mount on and it works perfect, able to achieve a perfect curve with it. Mount-It!

The curved screen is the main reason this costs so much, but even with it I still think MSRP is a rip off. The main thing I dont like about it is the pixel response time. Its a VA panel, which are notorious for poor response times, and this is no different. Advertised response times on almost any monitor are a lie, but this one is a bold faced lie(I think they say 5ms...its definitely not). Manufacturers try to combat this(especially with VA panels) by incorporating an overdrive feature. The "fast" and "faster" response time settings on this monitor, like with most monitors with overdrive, cause inverse ghosting/pixel overshooting. Its especially noticeable on the "faster" setting, youll notice it with your mouse when hovering across anything dark, and youll notice it in a lot of games. You can basically eliminate pixel overshooting by using the "normal" response time setting, but then we get right back to the issues that are inherent to VA panels. So you basically have 3 choices: tons of motion blur(normal), some motion blur plus some inverse ghosting(fast), or heavy inverse ghosting with little to no motion blur(faster). This monitor tries to come off as an affordable "gaming monitor" but its basically a cheap panel with a few extra features thrown in(curved screen, Freesync, monitor overdrive). If you play games that are faster paced, look elsewhere. If you play slower games and want the immersion of a curved screen at a good price...maybe wait until its on sale. Now...for the people out there who just want a nice curved desktop monitor...this display does have some pretty good color quality. One thing inherently good about VA panels is they typically have far superior contrast ratio and deeper blacks than IPS and TN panels. There is some mild color banding, but nothing compared to what you typically see from a TN panel. Ive watched a lot of YouTube and some Netflix with this monitor and it did really well for that. But as I said to the gamers...wait until its on sale.

- Im a graphic designer, so I care greatly about color accuracy. So far, its pretty decent. Im yet to have a marathon session on this. - I read a lot about the eye saver stuff, and how well it works. Thats great and all, but as far as colors are concerned, they get all muddy and dull. Im not sure Ill be using that a lot. - Itll take a bit for me to get used a curved monitor. So far, its pretty rad. - Monitor is super bright and very sharp. - No dead pixels on this that I can see. - The power button is also a menu joystick. Very easy to use, and very user friendly menu. - There is an audio port in the back...never tested, never will. - Monitor ONLY has 1x HDMI and 1x VGA ports in the back... VGA? Really?

Ive only had them for a few days, but so far theyre excellent! There are important notes, such as when mounting on a vesa mount, you need to use the spacers so that the bracket doesnt pull on the screen. I would guess that is where a lot of people failed and broke their monitors before turning them on. Just a guess, though. The picture is fantastic! I got these on sale on prime day for $117 each, I wish I would have bought more for my desk and for my wifes desk. The only down side really is there arent separate buttons, its a directional pad style button, so its a bit confusing to use at first.
