What customers say about "Key Specs"
Samsung C32F391 Curved Monitor
  • High enough resolution, beautiful colors. I love the curved screen.
  • The resolution is 1920 x 1080 and the color saturation, including black, which is often a problem, is rich and the picture sharp.
  • Resolution is worst than 5-6-year-old monitors. Poor color. Connected 4 different computers, same results. Disappointed.
  • It looks beautiful on the desk, but resolution not good at all. Probably fine if you're just using it ocassionally, but other than that no way! Lots of color variance even as I'm typing this and very unsharp.
  • It's only 1920 x 1080 resolution. For this size, again, relatively low resolution. That said, the price is much less than higher resolution models, so you'll save some money if you don't like extremely high resolution.
Samsung C32F397 Curved Monitor
  • It works great and resolution and color is perfect.
  • Great picture, and fast refresh for games.
  • Screen is very clear. Excellent value for the cost. Great resolution.
  • Resolution established 1920x1080 at first startup, bright images, crystal clear, no flicker observed.
  • The 1920x1080 pixels over this screen size results in poor resolution for text.

What customers say about "Features"
Samsung C32F391 Curved Monitor
  • Luckily there is a vesa mount and this monitor will see a new articulating stand soon.
  • The 32" monitor comes with 75mm X 75mm threaded mounting holes for a VESA wall or swing arm mount.
  • If you plan on mounting, it has VESA standard 3" but has a unmovable insert for the stand that requires you to get an extended wall mount, cannot make it work with a normal flat wall mount.
  • The base attaches easily and sturdy, however it is not adjustable at all.
  • Large Base, Screen still wobbles easily. Takes up more desk surface space.
Samsung C32F397 Curved Monitor
  • The curved design is so cool and the stand design is solid.
  • Great stand. No dead pixels, no scratches, no worries.
  • The built quality of the monitor seemed good. I liked how the stand worked.
  • The stand is cheap plastic and came with a big ding in it.
  • The monitor wobbles on the stand and there is no VESA mounting option.

What customers say about "Connectivity"
Samsung C32F391 Curved Monitor
  • There are only two types of video ports of the back of the monitor: one HDMI and one Display Port, but if you have an older computer that doesn't have either type of connector, Display Port is backwards compatible, and you can simply use an adapter.
  • This set up, has HDMI to Thunderbolt running to the 15inch MBP and DisplayPort to Mini DisplayPort/Thunderbolt on the Surface Pro 3. Plug and play works as expected, and the monitor produces an image right away
  • Connecting to the computer is via an HDMI or DV cable, not the VGA cable I used previously. I connected via HDMI, plugged in, turned on, and was blown away. The settings did not need to be adjusted, although I did play with them.
  • No DVI or VGA, for those who only have DVI and VGA inputs in their computers.
Samsung C32F397 Curved Monitor
  • All the ports are connected properly and my computer is fine.
  • Wide range of input options, and audio options.
  • Great connection options, every type for your needs.
  • No dead pixels out of the box! Light weight, many connections!
  • A few connection issues. I use the new macbook pro and use a HDMI to thunderbolt connection and from time to time, it stops detecting the monitor.
