The Samsung C34J791 is an excellent all-around monitor for productivity, gaming, or even home and office use. Sure, the price is a bit steeper than the usual, but the flexibility of the monitor and its dual Thunderbolt 3 connectors make it worth every penny. The aesthetics of the product was recycled from the C34F791, but the attractiveness of a white and silver chassis doesn’t easily expire. And because the C34J79 uses VA panel technology, its contrast ratio is much higher than your average IPS display. Indeed, in my testing I measured it at 2,250:1 contrast ratio, which translates to incredibly lifelike imagery. The 34in curved monitor doesn’t disappoint when it comes to its brightness levels either, reaching an impressive 317cd/m2; that’s fine for use indoors, even in bright, sunlit rooms. This isn’t a good choice for people who like to hop between colour profiles, with a handful of presets on offer from the simple – simplistic, even – OSD. Dig deeper and you’ll find a choice of five colour temperatures (we measured Cool 2 at 8825K, for example, while Normal hit 6360K), but this isn’t a monitor created with colour obsessives in mind. Lastly, the monitor also supports AMD FreeSync, meaning if you own a compatible AMD-GPU, you can enjoy tear-free gaming. There’s no Nvidia G-sync variant available of the C34J79.

And then there’s the resolution, which hits the heights at a gloriously sharp 3,440 x 1,440 resolution, delivering an unquestionable advantage over cheaper 2,560 x 1,080 screens. SamsungC34J79 review: Gaming performance That couldn’t be further from the truth. Firing up Counter Strike: Global Offensive, I found the monitor perfectly acceptable for use at a competitive level. It might not hit the 1ms MPRT heights seen on its smaller Samsung C24FG70 sibling, but the C34J79 is still a monitor that will satisfy even the most demanding gamer. The Samsung C34J791 is a Quantum Dot-equipped monitor, but its color performance falls short of our expectations. The sRGB gamut coverage reached an average of 99% or 75% in Adobe RGB. Samsung specified a 125% gamut volume for this monitor, but the screen still looked saturated correctly and vibrant enough for a mix of uses. The curve on the Samsung C34J791 is noticeably tighter at 1500r when compared to 1800r displays. The brand’s engineers intended this monitor to enhance the immersive feel when playing games or watching movies. The edges also feel closer to your face, making the peripherals easier to see or notice.

There was an very slight difference when cycling through the ‘Response Time’ options in the onscreen menu, with ‘Standard’ offering a slightly slower response than ‘Faster’ and ‘Fastest’, but there was no perceived overshoot ghosting in any modes, so I was able to use the monitor set to ‘Fastest’ without having to worry about ruining the visuals. I should also point out that, unlike the Samsung C24FG70, there’s no brightness cap in Faster and Fastest modes; the C34J79’s brightness remained untouched at 317cd/m2.

Colour accuracy is impressive. An average Delta E of 1.5 means this screen is ideal for colour critical work such as professional-level photo editing, and gamut coverage is just as good, with sRGB coverage hitting an impressive 98.3% sRGB, Adobe RGB coverage at 74.8% and DCI P3 gamut coverage is 80.5%.Best 4K and 5K Displays for Mac – Cost-Effective Alternatives to the Apple Thunderbolt Display Apple’s Thunderbolt display is now phased out, intensifying the hunt for a high-resolution display that can utilize the latest connection…

The stand is beautifully engineered and provides both height and tilt adjustments, plus if you want to wall mount it you can use the VESA mounting kit included in the box. You might want to do that, as well, since in addition to its wide, 21:9 aspect ratio it’s a jolly big screen, measuring a substantial 34in across the diagonal; Samsung also introduces a dramatic 1500R curvature here, the idea being to provide a more immersive viewing experience than a flat monitor.
