Excellent for work and gaming. Too few ports.

I've recently bought this product and I'm very happy about it.
I won't list the pros, since it really is a very excellent screen. I use it for both work and gaming and it quite excels at both. I'm used to a Dell IPS screen, and I find that both text and graphics works well on it.

There's a few cons, though, but since the pros are far larger than these cons, I'll still give it five stars.
Cons:
1) There's no USB-C DisplayPort Alt Mode. There's one USB-C exit port for computers, so you can connect mouse/keyboard/etc to the screen and then connect the screen to your computer. But since there's only one USB-C exit port you cannot switch between computers without moving cables around. This really should be an included feature.

2) Besides from the USB-C exit port for computers, there's only two other USB-C ports. Why? We'd really like more ports.
3) There's no jackstik for headphones. Why?
4) There's only USB-C ports. Why? Most of us still have USB-A equipment and it is more than a little annoying to have to use adapters and usb-hubs.
5) The USB-C ports are too close together; you cannot use USB-A equipment with an USB-C adapter, since there's simple not enough room between the USB-C ports. Instead you are forced to use a hub.
6) The screen menu is slow and sluggish. Has a lot of quite excellent features besides from that and the controls works very well, but it is slooooow.

Best monitor money can buy

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Using monitor for every day use to multitask and it works like a dream. Having 3 windows open across the screen for max productivity is awesome. Gaming on 5120x1440 resolution makes it so much more immersive as well. I highly recommend this monitor to any who need dual monitors or like to game.

Exceeded my expectations! Best monitor out there!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This monitor exceeded my expectations! It has completely transformed my work space and has increased my productivity to complete assignments, tasks and enjoy entertainment like watching football games, streaming movies and shows, and playing educational videos for my children. It has a beautifully designed, sleek, thin 49” screen with 1800R curve that is not too curved or too flat. This length of the screen is like combining two 24” monitor into one. The features are remarkable and as a college student who needs to view multiple documents at a time, I was able to display up to 4 different screens with ease. I mostly used the three-window setup but appreciated that I had up to 8 screen modifications to choose from. I often work late at night so the adaptive picture and eye saver mode significantly helped to minimize the eye strain during the late-night hours. The screen brightness was so incredible that I did not even have to use a lamp or light at my workstation when working at night.
Installation was a breeze with only 3 steps and minimal hardware needed. It includes a mounting stand and a wall mount setup. The mounting stand is ergonomic and allows you to swivel, tilt and adjust the height to your desired level. It also comes with a remote that is small and responsive. The remote includes multiple features and quick access buttons for Netflix, Disney, Prime Video, and Samsung TV Plus. The only downside to the remote is it is rechargeable but did not come with a charging cord. The setup process took a few minutes but was not difficult and provided personal customizations to your liking. A Samsung account is required for setup but this was also a simple process to create. After setup, an update took place immediately and lasted for about 10 minutes or so.
This monitor is perfect for work, gaming and for entertainment. It comes equipped with preinstalled apps like Hulu, Disney, YouTube, Netflix, and Amazon Prime with room to download three additional apps of your choice. You can also easily cast to the monitor from your mobile phone. It comes equipped with speakers that provide optimal sound and volume. It also has a headphone jack for personal use. It is energy efficient and battery consciousness. There are also multiple connections that include USB-C, HDMI, and DP connections.
Overall, this monitor has everything you need in a monitor from an incredible 49” view that covers your entire peripheral vision to beautiful.

Samsung topped themselves agaiin

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This monitor is amazing. Compare it to the curved 49 they came out with a year ago and it's just leaps and bounds.
Energy save mode. Less of a curve for a more realistic gaming experience, sound, even a remote so you can access your favorite TV or movie right from your monitor. Use as 1 large or 2 split screen modes.
Top monitor is the older samsung unit. New one for this review is bottom
You can totally see the difference in quality.
