A Great Great Product. Found it to be better then the new Apple 27" Cenima Screen I have. Highly recommended. Prashant Menon

This is by far the best monitor I've ever seen. Great resolution, great vibrant colors, awesome brightness, thin, light weight, wall mountable. I absolutely love this monitor! Samsung is the absolute best display manufacturer by far.

I bought this monitor to replace a Dell U2711 which I had to return due to its horrible horrible anti glare coating. this monitor is amazing, its super clear and there is no problem with the anti glare. It gives a high resolution performance is brilliant. If you are thinking about buying it, do it!

A very nice 27 inch monitor, the HAS stand is very convenient as well as a Usb 3.0 hub. Very easy to make the connections from the side at the rear of the monitor. The on screen menu is very easy to use and the control buttons are on the bottom center of the screen.

HAS stand ; Usb 3.0 hub; PLS screen; easy access to menu buttons; cable connections from the side at rear of monitor; eco mode; simple on screen menu system; 2560 X 1440 resolution

Screen set to max brightness out of box; requires calibration

Using two of these monitors in a dual setup. These PLS screens have excellent quality. They have almost every feature desired in a high end monitor of the IPS/PLS class. The only thing lacking is 10 bit color.

Absolutely beautiful monitor, vibrant colours, great design, 1440p gives you lots of real estate, and absolutely gorgeous to game on. Will need a descent video card to game with though keep that in mind.

A quality display is no more ‘just a monitor' than a Ferrari is ‘just a sports car'. You pay a significant premium to get a high-end panel like IPS, rather than the TN panels found in most affordable monitors.

Generally good image quality; 2,560 x 1,440 resolution; Decent value; Fully adjustable; Generous connectivity

Contrast shift; Fiddly controls; No HDMI

A look at the interesting arrival of PLS panel technology to the market in this 27" screen from Samsung. How does the screen perform and what is PLS technology like? How does it compare with IPS?

Pleasing all round performance from PLS panel; comparable to e-IPS in many regards; Smoother; non-grainy AG coating; Very good pixel responsiveness

Some backlight bleed issues (may vary; Poor default setup; needs calibration ideally; Some adjustments from the stand are very stiff

27" is size You need now to comfortable work and play. Colours are greate saving energy futures are brilliant too, connection, USB hub position adjustment, you can ease mount it to the wall - all great - realy love it.

The Samsung Series 8 (S27A850T) is a 27in LED edge-lit LCD monitor using Samsung's proprietary PLS panel tech. This monitor may be expensive at $1099, but its image quality is impressive.

Good detail at native resolution; Excellent viewing angles; High quality AG coating

Expensive; Wobbly pivot hinge; No analog audio input
