Samsung C34J791/CJ791 Monitor Review

The Samsung C34J791 is a 34'' ultrawide monitor with mediocre picture quality. It has a high contrast ratio due to its VA panel and displays deep but not too uniform blacks. It is more suitable for an average lit room as it cannot get very bright to...

Excellent low input lag Excellent resolution and size

Image degrades when viewed at an angle Lack of HDR support

The Samsung C34J791 is a decent monitor for mixed usage. It has a large ultrawide screen with ample resolution that favors multitasking but unfortunately, it has poor viewing angles. It is very responsive to your actions but you should avoid placing it...

Samsung CJ791 QLED review: Thunderbolt meets curvy, ultra wide-screen display with quantum dots

The CJ791's panoramic experience and accurate color are enticing, as well as its ability to act as a full functional docking station and imitate a dual-display. Aside from the less than optimal contrast, the CJ791 is a very nice effort from Samsung....

Ultra wide for more horizontal work- or game-space Far more accurate color than the average display Doubles as a Thunderbolt dock Can display images from two inputs

Grayish blacks due to LCD leakage Relatively weak contrast

If you’re looking for that ultra wide (21:9) wraparound (curved) experience, you’ll get it with the J791. It also has extremely accurate color compared to most displays due to the use of quantum dots and doubles as a Thunderbolt hub. DPI is a bit lower...

Can't wall mount!

The stand comes off, but leaves behind bit that sticks out about 2 inches from the back of the screen that doesn't - responsible for the tilting of the monitor itself. Toyed with sawing it off but means the original stand is completely useless if I...

Great display - poor faulty sound

I've had the display for 3 weeks. Really nice connection through USB-C and my Macbook pro 2018(late). BUT a major drawback is the sound problems. I intermittently disables the sound. I you have to manually reset the display to default before if works...

Great product

"Looks really well and displays mac os x flawlessly, probably looks better than the retina display on the laptop. It should be made clear in the box is included a Thunderbolt 3 cable and a HDMI cable."

On 2nd Monitor - Pixel Issues on 2 screens so far

This should be a great monitor, however I am requesting a 2nd exchange. My first monitor developed a stuck blue pixel on a black screen near the centre of the display. The 2nd I received had 5 black dead pixels around the screen. This monitor would...

I've been using this for 4 weeks now as my main monitor at home, using it for 3 primary reasons: gaming, work and photo editing. It replaces 2 1080p monitors. I now have one of those as my second monitor with this Samsung as my main monitor. Gaming:...
