Use code SAMSUNGSAVE20 for £20 off a £250+ Spend to get this price
I was looking for monitor to be able to work from home without using the laptop all of the time and being able to dual screen (or at least have enough space to sit two windows side by side) was important. I looked at lots of sites and different options, but some of the top line led screens were £500+. I came across this from Samsung and ordered it from Amazon but they ran out of stock and notice Samsung are selling it for the same price with free one day delivery. I ordered it on Tuesday at 4pm and got it at 9am the next morning (excellent).
Personally, I think this is a great looking monitor for a very good price, so thought I would share it (although I do admit to waiting to get it before posting after my amazing Phillips LED post that Amazon picked up and cancelled all orders haha).
hope this benefits at least one person.
cheers
1800R screen and Eye Saver Mode for increased viewing comfort
The deeper 1800R screen curvature allows your eyes to track smoothly. In clinical tests this reduced eye strain when compared to viewing a flat screen.
Best-in-class 3000:1 contrast ratio: Samsung’s VA panel technology provides a 3000:1 contrast ratio that delivers deeper blacks, more brilliant whites, and richer colours for clearer, more vibrant images
Reduced light leakage: Samsung’s curved display technology minimises light leakage from the screen edges to ensure more uniform blacks across the entire viewing area

I've upgraded to larger monitors in the past but I'm relatively certain they didn't move further away :confused:

I think this is £269.99 at ebuyer. I have seen it for £255 elsewhere but cant remember the site.

Ignore the cheaper price. Just checked my amazon price match request and it was morecomputers. The price has gone up to £271

What are your first impressions of this monitor? I've been looking at it for a couple of months but like you said about ebuyer, it seems to be out of stock most places. I'm just waiting for it to come back in stock with Amazon so I can use the balance on my gift card. Are you happy with it?

Not sure I'd be happy with that resolution at this size but horses for courses

I'm not a gamer and use it primarily for work but it looks good to my eyes. Watched a few films on it too which were decent quality.

At 32 inches, the monitor would be a lot further away from its user compared to smaller monitors. And the extra distance would negate the loss of PPI.

I have a 27 inch curved at 1080p and I find that bad in terms of seeing pixels on the screen, I couldn't imagine how much worse it would be with a 32 inch screen

Isn't he talking about pixel density which is a valid point.
1080p on a 27" screen is far from ideal.

£260 for a 1080p screen is stone cold. Even if it's massive and curved. This panel would make a nice telly but not a monitor.

out of interest, what would be the minimum you would go for and how much would it cost to get it? Genuine question as I'm not sure if we're comparing a Ford with a BMW which would naturally be better, but also far more expensive? I came across a few screens which had a higher spec, but significantly more money. However, for me, I use it purely for work, it looks good in the office and I'm not sure that Microsoft Outlook, Word or Excel needs a massively higher spec, but get that different people have different requirements in a screen. I'm just interested to know what the minimum should be and how much it would most likely cost to get one. Cheers

I guess the point is people often buy a new larger monitor but it gets placed on the same desk. I have gone from 19" square to 22" widescreen and now 27" all with the same desk and viewing distance.
At computer desk type viewing distances I think 1080p at about 27" is as big as I would go. I have that setup now and yes it is a bit pixelated perhaps but the trade off is savinf a ton of cash on the GPU.

My assumption is use of a monitor on my desktop - I use two 22" at the moment - if I went bigger than that I'd want better than 1080 - the screen estate has to be bigger to make it useful. Sure if you're running a display wall or playing games then fine but then you can consider buying a well spec'd TV instead.

Buying a TV for games is an awful bloody idea. The input lag is far too high.

I would have one of the following over this 32":
29" LG ultrawide 2560x1080 for £250
32" AOC 2560 x 1440 for £326
The text is plenty big enough on the 29" LG whereas the text on a 32" 1080p will be comically large. You can fit so much more on the screen on a 2560x1440 or if you don't need so much space you can scale your screen and enjoy a much sharper (think retina display) viewing experience.

is the 2560x1080 resolution 4K? Sorry for my ignorance!

No, 4k is 3840 x 2160 (8mp). I just got a 32" 4k screen and find it just about right for the size. I previously had a 2560 x 1600 screen and found the pixel density a bit too low. I tend not move further away when I get bigger, higher res screens becauae I like the extra screen realestate and detail. The only down side to this is tgat I work with two 24" 1080p monitors and the pixel density / screen realestate seems poor by comparison.
