Pros and cons

According to our monitor expert

QLED and High Dynamic Range provide vivid colors and high contrasts, letting HDR games really come into their own.
With a super ultrawide monitor, you can see twice as much of the playing field as on a 'regular' monitor, as long as your game supports this.
The combination of FreeSync and a 144Hz refresh rate prevents faltering images if you have an AMD video card.
Note: this monitor is 1.2 meters wide and 38cm deep, so you need plenty of space on your desk.
This monitor doesn't have integrated speakers to play music and hear the sound of your games.

Description

With the Samsung LC49HG90, you can experience your games on a curved 49-inch monitor. On this extremely ultrawide monitor with a 3840x1080 resolution, you can see nearly the entire playing field during your games. For example, an entire city or complete cockpit. The C49HG90 has a QLED screen, which displays realistic colors. In addition, the screen meets the VESA DisplayHDR 600 standard, so you can also see your opponents clearly in dark games and always have an advantage. The panoramic effect of the curved screen makes you feel like you're right in the middle of your games and you don't have to move your head and neck as much to take in the entire image. Thanks to the 144Hz refresh rate, you can play even your fastest action games like Overwatch or Battlefield smoothly. And the FreeSync technology ensures that you won't be bothered by stuttering images if you game with an AMD video card.

With the software on the included CD-ROM, you can easily divide the screen into multiple windows.

Review is 10 out of 10.

The biggest money can buy

Big
1ms so almost no ghosting
144Hz smoothness
Everyone wants to come and play dirt rally on your monitor

Before this I had a 21:9. That was quite an experience. However when I bought it. Wow; just wow. Imagine being in a racing game with 3 monitors side by side. Now imagine you have 1 monitor without the bezels. Very immersive.

This monitor is also great to work with. I hang my mac on it to program and I can neatly hang a lot of windows next to each other.

Fantastic screen highly recommended!!!!

Fantastic picture
Very suitable for flight simulation Prepar3D
No more edges and a beautiful large image
No negatives

I first worked with 3 x 24 inch monitors. I fly with Prepar 3D flight simulation and this is a great experience with this screen. Very clear image and it adjusts immediately in the program with the first startup. Flying on the PC takes on a whole new dimension.

Review is 10 out of 10.

I have never seen anything like this!

Width/ truly increased viewing angle in games
Overall quality (both performance/physical)
Ideal size. Not too small, not too big.
An obvious one, high price..

Simply amazing monitor for gamers (fps players, particularly). I have been looking to buy a curved monitor for a while, but they all were to small (21:9), which made me feel it was not delivering the full promise of increased view angle. But when I saw this, I knew this was the thing I was looking for. Yes it is expensive, but if you can afford it, I don't think if there is any better wide-gaming monitor out there.
