Available since October 2018, the Samsung SJ55W is a 34-inch ultrawide monitor often considered to belong in the gaming category. However, the 4 ms GtG response time and 75 Hz refresh rate only recommend it for those who care more about the generous 1440p resolution and the office-oriented multitasking features than the performance provided in fast-paced games. With a list price of US$329.99, the model LS34J550WQNXZA is now down to US$264.06 on Amazon thanks to a 20% discount.
In addition to the Amazon deal above, those interested in the Samsung SJ55W can also take advantage of the US$279.99 price currently offered by Samsung US.
The Samsung SJ55W LS34J550WQNXZA supports 100 X 100 mm VESA mounts but only comes with adjustable tilt. USB ports are not available, since the list of connectivity features only includes two HDMI ports, one DP, and a 3.5 mm audio jack. The monitor ships with an HDMI cable and features support for AMD FreeSync, PBP and PIP multitasking, 178-degree viewing angles, 300 nits typical brightness and 3000:1 static contrast (250 nits and 2000:1 are the minimum values).
With 2,165 user reviews and 260 answered questions, this is a very popular ultrawide monitor on Amazon. Its current global rating is 4.4/5, with the following breakdown by feature: 3.5 for gaming, 3.6 for screen quality, 3.9 for picture quality, 4.1 for value and brightness, and 4.7 for the quality of materials used.

In my early school days, I hated writing and having to make up stories. A decade later, I started to enjoy it. Since then, I published a few offline articles and then I moved to the online space, where I contributed to major websites that are still present online as of 2021 such as Softpedia, Brothersoft, Download3000, but I also wrote for multiple blogs that have disappeared over the years. I’ve been riding with the Notebookcheck crew since 2013 and I am not planning to leave it anytime soon. In love with good mechanical keyboards, vinyl and tape sound, but also smartphones, streaming services, and digital art.
