According to our monitor expert
The Samsung LC27HG70QQUXEN is a 27-inch curved gaming monitor for true gaming fanatics. The curved screen produces a panoramic effect, giving you an intense, more immersive gaming experience. The FreeSync technology synchronizes the monitor with your AMD video card, so you won't have any issues with tearing and stuttering. The 144Hz refresh rate ensures smoother images in fast-paced situations like in Battlefield 1 or Overwatch. This monitor displays vivid colors in your games, thanks to its 100% coverage of the sRGB color spectrum. Are you a gaming fanatic who spends hours on end playing games? Pivot, tilt, and rotate the height-adjustable LC27HG70QQUXEN to align it completely with your posture.
Note: For QHD gaming, you need a powerful video card, such as an NVIDIA GeForce RTX GPU or AMD Radeon RX 5000 series GPU, or an Xbox One X or S.

Beautiful display with vivid colors and good resolution. I bought this screen to replace my benq xl2411z screen. Both screens share a fast response time (about 1 ms) and 144 Hz refresh rate. This screen is many times better than the BenQ in all other categories. Due to VA, the color reproduction is better: richer colors and darker black (or more contrast). The screen diagonal is slightly larger at 27 inches, but due to the higher resolution, the pixel density is greater than with a 24 inch full HD screen. I find the curve a pleasant addition, but it is not a deciding factor with a screen of this size.
As a seasoned CSGO player his reaction time and input was essential to me. Switching to this screen has not affected my performance. It didn't make me play any better, but the gaming experience is just that little bit more enjoyable. The screen is especially beneficial in other games, but you don't have to worry about your CSGO skills deteriorating because of this screen.
Some little things:
The price is quite steep, but I bought this screen as a second chance, and also on sale. If you wait a little longer, the price will drop even further.
HDR does not work in Windows 10, if I switch the switch it goes back immediately, so I don't even get to see anything. This is more due to Windows 10 than this screen of course.
The 144 Hz didn't work for me at first. This was because Display Port 1.1 was set by default. For 144 Hz you must have DP 1.2 or higher. You can easily adjust this via the settings of the monitor, but you do need to know this.
The viewing height of the monitor is quite limited. I have it on the highest position, but this is only 19 cm to the bottom edge of the screen. I wish the monitor could be adjusted a little higher.

Good screen for gaming with fast response time and good display.
OSD menu takes a while and some options cancel each other out, such as "Eco Savings Plus", cancels Brightness and Picture Mode.
The curve is easy to do and does not interfere with in-game or with film/series. the curve also doesn't bother with a flat secondary screen next to it (in my case a 1920x1200 24" screen).
The standard of the screen stands firmly on three legs and is easy to position.
