Samsung U32R590 32 Inch Curved UHD 4K Monitor - Ultra HD 3840x2160 HDMI, Displayport, Dark grey

Product Information

My question to the reviewer of this product is did you use the default driver/color profile that Windows installs when the monitor is attached?

Most people want to have their monitor turn on, work, and look good. And that’s about as complicated as they want things to be. Almost the entire Samsung lineup is made to accommodate the needs of that kind of audience. Samsung U32R590 Curved UHD 4K Monitor UHD refers to the resolution of a screen. A 4K screen has 3840x2160 pixels: four times that of standard Full HD (1920 x 1080). Because there are more pixels available, the display is far clearer and carrying vastly improved sharpness. I also asked the tech at Samsung about profiling the monitor with a colorimeter and 3rd party profiling software. That confused him. I doubt that he had ever heard of a colorimeter, and, even implied that this monitor could even be profiled. For me....end of conversation! The Samsung U32J590 is a goodyet affordable 4K monitor for console gaming, casual PC gaming, watching movies, web surfing and any other multimedia use. Here’s what you need to know about it. Image Quality GAME MODE: Game Mode instantly optimizes image contrast in game scenes for a competitive edge during gameplay; By selectively adjusting contrast in different areas of the screen, it reveals details in darker areas of scenes so you spot enemies sooner

skip this. people will say its the cheapest 4k so get it. but washed out colors, no vesa, simplistic controls and giant footprint on your desk make it a sure pass. i havent even tried to watch anything in 4k yet bcz it cant make web browsing look good and im too tired to get more irritated at this junk. This change of mind return policy is in addition to, and does not affect your rights under the Australian Consumer Law including any rights you may have in respect of faulty items. Thankfully, the monitor is responsive to calibration, so you can bring down its color deviances to reduce the DE average to around 1.2. Gamma will also improve to 2.17 if you lower the brightness to around 50%. Color temperature will sit closer to the ideal 6500K, lessening the bluish tinge of the display which is more prominently visible in gray images. You shouldn’t turn to this brand if you’re looking for a monitor with an unusually high dollar to performance ratio. Instead, Samsung is really more about reliability and general quality. We’re basically talking about the difference between a generic and a mainstream brand. Sometimes it’s easier to know what you’re getting, and that’s certainly the case with the U32R590.

no vesa. you know, this is disheartening as vesa compatibility has almost become ubiquitous. so this was a choice. a choice made by someone who is completely out of touch with todays home and soho computing. its one thing to not include the vesa if you are going to give us a stand with lots of motion, and stability, and good materials. instead you get a cheap tube frame and about 5 degress of motion up and down, no side to side. the frame is so cheap , i assume, bcz they engineered the weight and design of the monitor to hold it steady. in this it is marginally successful, but only by using a lot of desk space. The UR59C’s curved display means that your eyes maintain a constant focus distance from the screen. This reduces the constant focus shifts your eyes make when viewing a flat screen, resulting in less eye fatigue and more comfortable viewing over extended periods. Because this is a vertical alignment panel, you get wide viewing angles of about 178°. That’s possible both horizontally and vertically. The U32R590 has a native resolution of 3840 x 2160, more commonly known as 4K. About the smallest you want to make a 1440p monitor is about 27”, and about the largest is 32”. Game Mode instantly optimizes image contrast in game scenes to give you a competitive edge during gameplay. By selectively adjusting contrast in different areas of the screen, Game Mode reveals details in darker areas of scenes and lets you spot enemies before they spot you.If you are not a competitive gamer, the VA panel of the Samsung U32J590 32″ monitor does offer the best contrast ratio in comparison to IPS and TN panels, which will provide you with better visuals and more visible details in shadows and highlights of the picture. The Samsung U32R590 Curved UHD 4K Monitor provides a respectably response time of 4ms. That should be enough for both gamers and non-gamers to be totally satisfied. Though technically speaking, a gaming monitor might want to drop that response time closer to 1ms. Additionally, AMD FreeSync is supported as well, which means that by connecting a compatible AMD graphics card or an Xbox One/S/X console to the monitor, you get a variable refresh rate (VRR). The Samsung U32R590 is attractively priced as far as 32-inch 4K monitors go, especially if you consider that it is a curved variant. The screen looks superb once calibrated, while the form factor takes care of the product’s value for entertainment purposes. The device is a suitable choice if you want a display for PC and console gaming, but there are few missing features such as FreeSync.

A 32-inch monitor is big, no doubt, and at typical desktop viewing distances, a flat panel has users placing their windows in the center with less-important elements relegated to the sides. I’m writing this article on a flat 32-inch screen, and though I have several windows open, only the center one ( Microsoft Word) is able to win my attention. When I try the same thing on the UR59C, I can leave message windows open to the sides, and their content remains on my visual radar. It’s a subtle effect but a palpable one nonetheless.Well, you might not! USB Type-C is just one of many methods for a desktop PC or laptop to connect to a monitor. While most will use HDMI, USB Type-C allows computers without HDMI output ports, like Apple Mac and Apple MacBooks, to connect to a monitor without needing an adapter. What is colour gamut? The included stand is pretty impressive. Though it looks like its basic and simple, it can actually provide a truly deep range of adjustability. That’s easy to appreciate because viewing angle really matters if you want to make the most of this kind of screen. now for the monitor. i should keep taking stars away, but i would be left with negatives. first the bezel"less". there is a bottom branded bezel, along with 1/8" of dead space. the other 3 sides all have 1/4" dead space. so you effectively have an internal bezel of non-usable screen real estate that still takes up the space a monitor that doesnt shave off inches does.
