Samsung 27' T35F Series FHD 1080p Computer Monitor, 75Hz, IPS Panel, HDMI, VGA (D-Sub), AMD FreeSync, Wall Mountable, Game Mode, 3-Sided Border-Less, Eye Care, LF27T350FHNXZA

Works well as a secondary display for productivity, browsing, and media. Image is sharp for 1080p at 27 inches, with good color and viewing angles for everyday use. Setup was straightforward and the slim design fits cleanly on a desk. Refresh rate and response time are fine for casual gaming but not ideal for competitive or high-FPS play. As a primary monitor for office work or a secondary screen in a multi-monitor setup, it performs reliably.

I ordered this after having the exact same one for the last 5 years. I use a curved 27 Samsung as my main monitor for gaming and I will be upfront that the quality for gaming is not going to stand up if you have used another monitor meant for that. I had to use this one for a couple months when I moved and it was night and day. However, this monitor is still crisp, quick response for surfing the web, watching a show, or having software up that you want to keep an eye on. I ordered this second one so that I could have two of them vertical and keep my discord open on one and either Spotify or game guides open on the other and that has been amazing. Again, not really made for gaming but that is not a bad thing. It’s an amazing value that you’re getting regardless and as an extra monitor you really can’t beat it, especially if you’re someone like me who tries to keep all their peripherals within the same family brand. It’s also very lightweight which made it easy to deal with for moving and quick temporary set ups.

I don't know what you do for home or business, but let's face it, for normal usage a 27" monitor is ridiculously large. And a lot of reasons to like this one. And I'm loving it! Look, I work from home. I can't set up my space for two monitors, which would be great. And I was using a laptop provided by my work. I used a "docking" type system and my previous monitor just didn't do it for me for the work. So I ordered this one. Let me tell you, my work efficiency has seriously gone up. Just the sheer acreage has helped immensely. A nice solution to not being able to have two monitors. Maybe, better than two of them. So here's the thing, I have my home desk top computer AND my work laptop computer hooked up at the same time to this one monitor. How? This monitor has both the analog and the HDMI ports. The screen and input adjustor are on the back of the monitor (lower right side). It feels like a button, so push it. But then you find out it is also kind of a joy stick. Move it to your left and you can choose which input you want. Also, brightness settings etc are there. Very easy to use once you find out that isn't a button but a "joy stick". Colors are great. Details are great. I've watched movies on this monitor, played games. It has been great for all the things for me.

If you're buying this as the cheapest possible option for your gamin rig, then you'll probably be satisfied by the beautiful colors and impressive form factor. But, you should know that you may need to do some significant work to get a picture that's even passable, and even then there could be problems you can't fix. Out of the box, this display's colors were overwhelmingly Amber (and no, eye saver mode is not enabled). Without any color calibration ability built into the hardware, I've had to rely on Windows's color calibration to fix the issue. After turning greens down by about a third, and red a little less, I've gotten the colors to balance. Still, the reds aren't as saturated as they maybe could be, but it's not enough to bother me. Once balanced, the colors honestly look great, and I've found myself finding colorful music videos to watch just to admire the display's bright, vibrant range. This leads us into the dynamic range between how bright and dark the monitor can get. This is the classic limitation of IPS monitors, and while more expensive models can make up for this limitation in various ways, this cost effective model just makes you deal with it. Once again, there are no true brightness or contrast settings built into the display. The setting for brightness, as far as I can tell, simply adjusts the output of the LED backlighting, and contrast changes the difference between how bright and dark those lights will go. Once again we're left to Windows's color calibration, which simply gives us a slider for the gamma setting. Unfortunately, setting the gamma ideal for sRGB color vibrancy to around 2.2-2.4 (which is about where it was out of the box) just doesn't work, even though it does bring out the best colors on this monitor. The issue is that the screen simply can't recreate enough dark shades, and huge parts of the screen get blacked out. Bright videos might be fine, but gaming is impossible as entering even slightly dim environments makes it impossible to see. To be able to function in-game without a significant disadvantage, I ended up having to crank the gamma down to about 1.4 (lower gamma means a brighter screen), just to make low light environments easily navigable. The end result is that the overall display is a bit washed out, with colors not as vibrant as they could be, but I've hit a balance that I'm happy with. Finally, the most dissappointing note, which ended up losing this monitor half a star for my review, is that as of possesing this monitor for 10 days, I've found a stuck pixel. So for now, I've got a cyan dot permanently on my monitor. There are a few home remedies I can try to fix this, but it may end up being something I have to live with, or go through the hassle of returning the whole monitor for. For reference, I'm using a generic PnP display driver. When I get my new computer, I'll download the manufacturer's driver and update this review if it helps anything. In conclusion, the colors and overall image quality are really quite great for such a cheap monitor, as long as you're willing to put in the time to calibrate everything correctly. This isn't a monitor for the long haul, but so far it seems like a great option until I'm ready to put in money for a more serious gaming display. I was ready to order a second one for my dual monitor setup, but this stuck pixel has me holding off for now. To put it simply, if you put in the work and can overlook some flaws, you can have an exciting, beautiful time with this monitor, at least until you're ready to commit to a safer, long term option. By the way, a note for this age of virtual engagements, the frame of this monitor is so small that putting my Logitech c920 webcam on top actually covers a bit of the screen.

I will preface this review by saying that despite the listing (title) saying that the monitor is 27’(ft) it is not. The monitor is 27” (inches). I’m happy it is 27” (inches) and was not an actual 27’(ft) monitor because I wouldn’t know what to do with two of them. Anyways, I purchased two of these monitors just days apart and both arrived early which was awesome. They came perfectly packaged and worked without issues. I figured it was worth mentioning that one monitor arrived with plastic film over the screen while the other one did not have plastic film at all. The monitor with plastic film over the screen caught me off guard because it made it look like the monitor screen was severely damaged. So, you could imagine my relief when I realized that it was just the plastic film that was scuffed up. Considering how scuffed the plastic film was I am very thankful that there was plastic film added for protection. For work use, the price point was just as perfect as the monitor. Also, just to note, the monitor does have a game mode and will perform just fine. I played a few games on them just to see, and the quality was fine, and the latency was acceptable. The monitor came with a very basic stand that eats up valuable desk real estate. I feel that these monitors shine best if they are connected to an articulating mount. Also in the box is an HDMI cable which was a nice surprise considering I completely forgot about purchasing a cable. Overall, the price point coupled with the quality of the monitor is very hard to beat. I’ve only had these monitors for a month or so and hope they hold up; time will tell. However, my knee jerk reaction, I couldn’t be happier!

I was a little hesitant by some of the reviews I saw for this monitor when I was originally looking for a new monitor to order online. After receiving this one I can tell you that there's nothing to be worried about. Many reviewers state their monitor stopped working after a week or something for no reason. That hasn't happened to me at all. In fact, this monitor has given me no trouble whatsoever and I've had it for probably about a month now. I got it during a discount, when it was 130 I believe, and for that price it's a great deal. Good size and picture, surprisingly lightweight which was good for the mount I bought for it, and seemingly a great fit for now. Will try to update if any of that changes, but I doubt it will. Personally if you're looking for a gaming monitor, like I was, I would recommend this as my perfect 2nd monitor if you're looking to do a dual monitor setup. This one would probably be a bit small for a main monitor and I think if you're looking for a higher quality setup I'd look for something slightly larger than this. That said though, it would do just fine if you're willing to sacrifice some size for budget constraints. It can handle any game you want to put on it perfectly fine. I will say if you're looking to mount this monitor to anything other than the standing mount it comes with, you'll need to buy more bolts, as it only came with two and many other monitor mounts will require more than that. Luckily I had some spares that fit the size so that wasn't a problem for me. TL;DR: Overall, I highly recommend this monitor for anyone looking for a good balance between features and price for a gaming monitor. Update: I've had this monitor for a couple of months to a year now maybe, and for everyone saying the monitor randomly stopped turning on, I think I have the solution, because it eventually happened to me too. The problem is extremely simple to solve. The power cord is just loose. Every once in a while I'll turn my pc on, and my main monitor will light up like normal, but this one will not. That has ALWAYS been fixed immediately by simply removing the power cord from the back of my monitor and plugging it back in. To be clear, I am NOT talking about unplugging your power cord from the wall and plugging it back in. The connection is loose where your power cord enters the back of the monitor. Unplug the cord from the back of the monitor, plug it back in, and you'll be fine. This can be a bit of a headache to do from time to time, but it's certainly not nearly as bad as the monitor completely failing like some of the reviews have claimed.

Got this as a second monitor for my setup- Very nice screen for the price, and the controls are very easy to get a hang of- it has a weird joystick thing in the back that makes changing settings/inputs very easy. The fact that it has an HDMI and VGA port is very nice, and switching between two sources is effortless and instant. I do wish that the base was a bit more premium looking, but that's a nitpick.

I got 2 of these for $140/ea after trying both the "Sceptre 20" 1600 x 900 75Hz LED Monitor 2X HDMI VGA Built-in Speakers, sRGB 99% Machine Black (E209W-16003RT Series)" and the "HP V20 HD+ Monitor | 19.5-inch Diagonal HD+ Computer Monitor with TN Panel and Blue Light Settings | HP Monitor with Tiltable Screen HDMI and VGA Port | (1H848AA#ABA)" on sale for $115/ea and $95/ea respectively. The HP's are normally like $120/ea and the worst monitors I have ever seen. The HP's were the WORST! I couldn't tell the difference when I Googled something and had already clicked on it and it changed from blue, to a kind of purplish-looking color that Google links change to after you have already been to them. They did not fade in color from right to left, but it was DRASTIC from top to bottom (MUCH more important). I couldn't stand them. Just looking straight-on was ALWAYS miserable. The Spectre's were not much better. Very similar screen problems. If the colors, brightness, and tint looked correct at the top, they looked washed-out on the bottom. And if you changed the angle up or down to make the bottom look good, the top was either over-saturated or washed-out. There was NO angle, up or down, you could put either the Spectre's or the HP's at where both the top and bottom looked good! I was starting to think I might have to spend $200+/ea to get monitors that didn't look horrible. But then these went on sale and I am familiar with Samsung's reputation for making good quality electronics, especially screens. So I got them. I had to wait almost 3 weeks to get them. But it was worth the wait. These look GREAT from any normal viewing angle and have very nice and even blacks, grays, and all colors. You can adjust the colors, tint, and brightness; but there is no need to. And in my experience, a good screen (TV or monitor) should not need any adjustments. It SHOULD come from the manufacturer with the best settings possible with the exception of perhaps brightness depending on your room. BUT, adjusting the brightness should NOT throw everything else so out of wack that you need to start adjusting your color settings or much of anything else. And with these Samsungs YOU DON'T!! Set-up was simple. They have very nice, thin bezzles. And look GREAT straight out of the box! No adjustments necessary! Not many features. But they look great, both the screens and aesthetically speaking. That's all I wanted and these Samsung's deliver.
