Samsung 27" S3 (S32GF) FHD High Resolution 120Hz Monitor with IPS Panel, Flicker Free, Eye Saver Mode, LS27F320GANXZA, 2025

This is not about the actual experience of looking at the monitor as it's on, because I couldn't even get to that point.One of the 2 screws that are supposed to connect the upper part of the stand to the back of the monitor would not come out enough, no matter what, without starting to destroy the plastic threading. This prevents me from fitting the stand into positon at the perfect angle and positioning. As a result if I try to screw it in anyway, it starts to affect the threading/hole in the monitor once it's only 2/3rds of the way in, because it's all at a slight angle. Out of the many monitors I've ever had, this is the first time having such an issue. I've spent 30min carefully trying to deal with this and I'm giving up, might try more later or return it soon.

The first item arrived defective. The screw will not go in fully. I could not screw in the monitor stand. The replacement item arrived in the box that was damaged in two places. The outer box was fine. I was so disgusted that I did not care to open a box and check the item. So, I do not know if the monitor is OK. Why is it not possible to receive a non-defective in a non-damaged box? I am sending both items back. Very disappointed! I would have given it no stars if I could.

This is a good monitor for the price, I was trying to get something good that didn't break the bank. It's pretty nice, being 120 hz. I use this mostly for working from home , not gaming. I would buy this again if I needed to.

i lke the screen,but it has 1 flaw in it. the cable that goes to my towers wont fit. my towers have a square usb port, the cable that comes with the screem is different and wont fit. they should send a different cable as well like two different ends from screen to computer

Works like it should, easy setup, good monitor. have 2 of these 27inch monitors side by side for my work computer.

Great monitor for the price! The 27” IPS screen delivers sharp, vibrant colors, and the 120Hz refresh rate makes everything feel smooth—perfect for gaming and work. Setup was easy, and the eye-comfort features are a nice bonus for long use. Highly recommend!

I bought this monitor for my dual monitor setup about a month ago and it has been amazing. Although I would only recommend buying this monitor if you are using it as an extra for like youtube videos or for school work/work. I would not recommend this for gaming since its only 120 Hz and has a 5ms response time but if you have a ps5 then this should work fine. I personally use it as an extra monitor or to play fortnite on sometimes because this monitor is very bright which is amazing because on fortnite you are forced to play on max settings with shadows on which makes it very dark. The colors on this monitor are amazing and are actually better than my main 300 dollar monitor which is crazy.To summarize this, you should get this monitor if you are using it as an extra or for school work/work. If you are thinking of buying this for gaming, I honestly recommend that you just save up an extra 20-40 dollars and get something with a 1ms response time and maybe higher refresh rate.Monitor At $108.00 CAD When Bought.

Works and looks great.But, it is a bit wobbly on the stand.

Needed a monitor for PS5, great quality. Much better than 4k TV I was using. Eye saver mode helps with darker gameplay/ movies. Make sure to have a speaker system, no port for audio.

Just put this monitor together. It was simple to do. So far, I LOVE the picture - sharp and clear. Coming from 21" to 27" is larger than I thought. I am connected with an Apple mini. I needed the monitor to be higher than the pedestal that comes with it. But the base is large enough for that adjustment.

I’ve been using this Samsung 27" S3 monitor for a couple of weeks now as part of a dual-screen setup alongside a curved QHD display (Samsung LC27G55TQWNXZA). While it’s not going to replace my curved screen as my primary for media or design work, it serves its role really well as a lightweight, responsive, and sharp secondary monitor.Pros:120Hz support at 1080p, which was a nice surprise. Motion is noticeably smoother than a standard 60Hz screen, especially when browsing or watching media.IPS panel with slim bezels looks great on the desk — almost no border on the sides, which helps in multi-monitor setups.Very lightweight, which makes it super easy to mount or move around.Perfect for general use, office work, or media streaming.Cons:Not really a gaming monitor in the traditional sense. While 120Hz is nice, there’s no VRR support, and the color/contrast isn’t what I’d want for immersive gameplay. If gaming is your priority, you might want to shell out a bit more for something better suited to that use.The power button doubles as the settings joystick, and it's located on the back of the monitor. This makes adjusting anything a bit awkward — especially in a multi-monitor setup where this might be on the far side. I really wish it were on the bottom or side.Camera/light bar placement is tricky — because the bezel is so thin (a plus in most cases), any webcam or monitor light bar will slightly intrude into your screen. Not a dealbreaker, but it does block browser tabs at the top.Color & Calibration Notes:As shown in the images, I compared both monitors side-by-side using a Datacolor Spyder calibration tool.The image on the left shows my Spyder-calibrated curved display, which I use for media and design work.The right is the Samsung S3 out of the box (brighter screen), as well as calibrated as best as possible using the Spyder, Windows, and Nvidia Control settings.Despite calibration, the S3 retains a much warmer tone and limited contrast range, especially in shadow areas. It’s perfectly fine for everyday use and even looks vibrant for web content, but it's not accurate enough for photo or print work. The difference is especially apparent when editing darker images or detailed graphics.Final Thoughts:If you need a reliable, sharp, and modern-looking monitor for general productivity, web work, streaming, and occasional light gaming, this is a great option at the price point. Just be aware that it’s not a color-accurate editing screen or a high-end gaming display — and that power button placement might drive you a little nuts if you're frequently adjusting settings. That said, for the average user, it more than holds its own.

Basic monitor at the right price for the right job.

Good monitor for the office! Good value
