Product Overview

Samsung S34A650U is a premium 34-inch ultra-wide, 1000R-curved monitor designed for general computing. It uses a 10-bit VA panel with very high contrast rating and HDR support and comes with a USB-C hub with 90W power delivery.
While the S34A650U may be down on color gamut when compared to LG's alternatives, it uniquely offers a 1000R curvature that so far has only been available in Samsung's gaming monitors (specifically in the Odyssey range). This makes the S34A650U a somewhat unique model.
For entertainment and gaming, this 34-incher also has a good 100Hz refresh rate.
A smaller yet almost identical monitor by Samsung is the S32A650U.
