I bought this because Samsung's website say that it supports FreeSync. Sadly once I got this I couldn't figure out how to enable it. Looking through the owner's manual, this particular model does not in fact support it. I really wanted to use this monitor for gaming but didn't want to pay this much for a monitor without that feature.

The monitor seemed pretty nice otherwise. 1080p on a 32" monitor is pretty low DPI, but if you sit back its not a ton worse than 1080p on a 27" monitor. The curve is cool but this monitor does have a glossy display so background lights tend to get reflected and the curve seems to collect background lighting from a broader range than a normal monitor might. For something this size the curve is nice for immersion though. The colors and brightness were good. I also like the white color just for something different.

All in all it seems like a nice monitor but I can't figure out who it is intended for. The low resolution is especially noticeable when using Office type applications so doesn't seem like the best monitor for productivity (unless you like to recline while working or have really bad eye sight). And since Samsung excluded FreeSync on this monitor it doesn't seem like a good gaming monitor. It's good for watching videos I guess.

No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
