Samsung 34" WQHD 100Hz 4ms GTG Curved VA LED Monitor (LC34J791WTNXZA) - Grey

it was lovely for samsung to ask for product experience feedback on the same day i spent 45 minutes on hold with the samsung warranty dept. i've experienced the following issues: 1) the monitor occasionally will emit loud, sickening electrical popping sounds akin to electricity arcing between electrodes. 2) the usb-c connection sporadically doesn’t work. the screen drops out and goes black 3) the monitor is wobbly. it shakes with the smallest nudge. i bought this monitor based on brand loyalty. i recommended it to 3 friends. one friend purchased it as well. regret. the monitor was sent shipped back for repair. let's see is samsung can make this right.

Terrific display for Thunderbolt 3 / USB-C users. Now with a single cable, I can connect my MacBook to this display, built-in speakers, and my keyboard, mouse, ethernet, and webcam via the built-in USB ports (I used a USB hub to connect 3 devices instead of the 3 built-in). The monitor charges my MacBook and iPad (with the other USB-C port). I also like the PIP feature that allows me to see content from 2 inputs at the same time. I have another device connected via the HDMI port. My only complaint would be switching between the inputs is a pain as it cycles through all the inputs instead of just allowing you to choose which one you want.

Maybe I'm too spoiled as a Mac user. There's no built-in camera, okay no problem. But no auto brightness either. Not even keyboard brightness control. This means having to reach back to the tiny joystick and navigating several menus every day. And I'm running two of these side-by-side with a 2018 Mac mini, so that's double the physical fiddling every morning and night, once on the left, then again on the right. As for performance, so far so good, but there's a lag when booting up, even when using Apple's expensive 0.8M active Thunderbolt 3 cable. No built-in microphone, either. Otherwise it's pretty good as an adapted PC display.
