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

Comment

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! MI-2789 Triple Monitor Stand Freestanding LCD Computer Screen Desk Mount for 19, 20, 22, 23, 24 Inch Monitors VESA 75 and 100 Compatible Full Motion, 66 lbs Capacity (3 Horizontal Monitor)

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.

I run a dual monitor system and recently purchased two. These monitors are gorgeous! might have to upgrade to four monitors just so I have an excuse to buy two more!

Excellent Monitor, bought two for my computer at home. Just waiting to buy the third to have a full arc of monitors. Just to let you know this unit has the standard Samsung joystick control on the back of it. It can be kind of annoying it to you learn how to use it, but if you have a Samsung LED TV youll be used to it. This unit does not have internal speakers, but it does have a speaker output in the form of a 1/8 inch mini jack on the back of the unit. The unit is HDMI only, but I solved that issue by getting a display port to HDMI cable to use all ports on my video card. They are cheap, only about $10 US. It does come with its own HDMI cable so you do not have to buy one. The unit has an external power supply, so be prepared for another power brick hanging around under the desk.

Be sure to THOROUGHLY read the online instructions on setting up the HDMI feature and the Easy Eye instructions or you will not be able to find the setup. Outside of that, the screen output is great, and clarity is outstanding. Worth the money, but the instructions leave a lot to be desired...Just my Opinion......

This monitor looks great, which I love. However, I wish I listened to the other reviews that said you cant wake the monitor up after it goes to sleep. It was intermittent at first and now it happens every time. Takes a lot of effort to get it on again, including having to reboot the computer. Samsung claims that if I send it back, they will repair it and return the monitor within 7-14 days. I dont have a lot of faith. Stay away from this monitor and buy something that wakes up. Only have had it less than 6 months.

This replaced a smaller and rather old monitor. I love this monitor -it is very bright and clear. The curve makes it feel like its even larger than it is. The curve does take a little getting used to. I purchased one of these locally for my wife about a year ago and have wished to have one myself. I cant speak to its suitability for gaming because I use it in more of an office-type environment, not for gaming. It does show a beautiful picture and hers has been a great monitor, so I feel confident about the quality.

The curved monitor overall is very good and sexy looking. Very good for its price cannot ask for more. I will list out all the pros and cons of this monitor. Hope it will be helpful for you guys to decide whether to buy it or not. Pros: : Well design, good pixels, overall good response time( I only play light gaming not heavy ones). : The power plug has a safe function, makes it harder to unplug by accident. : Nice HDMI cord included. : Good size for a curved monitor, good for watching movies and TV shows on it. : Very thin, you can see in my picture (back LED lights not included) Cons: : The most annoying thing to me is the adjusting angle to the monitor, it either very hard or non-adjustable. : As a result, I have to put a small box under the monitor to increase its height since the height is not adjustable : There are no built-in speakers. : The on/off button is located in the back of the monitor, sometimes hard to reach : The on/off button light is reversed, it lights up when the monitor is off and lights off when the monitor is on. Weird. : The on/off button is like a joystick it has many functions, however, it is sometimes hard to use I prefer the mult-buttons. *I dont hate on the on/off button, but the design just didnt work well for me :P
