I bought this monitor on September 29, 2018. On June 26, 2019 it developed a column of dead pixels on the left side of the screen, and the bottom-right corner has started flickering.
Before the blue line, the screen has been beautiful, something I've bragged about to my friends and family, and the ultra-wide form factor and picture-by-picture have done wonders for my workflow.
Changing inputs, especially changing the the picture-by-picture settings is slow, and requires navigating through multiple levels of menus. Before the flickering and dead pixels, I thought this would be the only downside.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Amazing monitor

It's big and beautiful. I play games, do school work, watch tv/movies a little and it's just amazing. I'm a huge geek and love technology. Going from 1080 to 2k made my old video card subpar. I'm waiting for new 1100s to come out from Nvidia. I don't notice any ghosting. The refresh rate is great. Color/backlight is all amazing. The speakers are good for built in monitor speakers. If I had to complain about something I'd say the USB 3.0 cable for the hub is a tad short. I have my PC on the floor under my desk and it doesn't quite reach the monitor... but this is minor. I'd recommend it to anyone who doesn't mind spending money on high quality tech.
It is just excellent! Everything feels so right and smooth Thanks Samsung!
I would recommend this to a friend!

Best 34" I have tried

Main use for me is sim racing on a PC and occasional web browsing. I previously owned a 2560 x 1080 34" and have tested and/or used several other 21:9 and 16:9 monitors. I bought this locally thinking it would not be much different than my 34" 2560 screen and I would end up returning it but I was wrong.
This monitor has superior colors,clarity, and response time. I highly recommend it . The speakers are great for in screen type. Also note that the monitor comes with a Vesa mount which replaces the stand and it works fine.
I used to use three monitors now I only need this one. I use the monitor for both general use (internet, watching videos, occasional work) and for heavy gaming. I have yet to have a problem with the monitor. The picture and frame rate are great.
I would recommend this to a friend!
