My first deal post! I just ordered one for store pickup, will update this post with a review after I setup at the office tomorrow morning.
Update: Picked up the monitor this morning, great looking monitor with minimal bezels and a fast easy setup. Straight out of the box its calibrated nicely though I will need to adjust to my preferences. I am mostly using my system for tech and basic graphic design work along with some light audio and video editing. At the moment my laptop is being stubborn and defaulting to the Intel GPU, updating drivers so I can take full advantage of 1050Ti. Very good buy at $260
Great monitors paid $359 earlier this year. Make sure your system can run them at 60hz. At 30hz they flicker. Currently using a new MacBook Pro to drive these at native resolution USB-C to DisplayPort.

oh man, what a bummer ...wonder why they went 75x75
I know the size difference, but more curious about image quality and how it would pair with a PS5.
It's an interesting tradeoff: This is IPS and slightly brighter @ 28" (with HDR) whereas the other (from Samsung directly) is VA but 32".
Honestly not sure which one I'd take. Smaller size means higher DPI, but with 4k, that is likely not a big factor anyway and the larger size would be preferred. Then there's VA vs IPS. Though, if sitting right in front of it (as you likely are), that shouldn't be much of a drawback.

6 of one I guess
I would definitely suggest this one compared to 32 (VA), my friend has the 32inch one compared to it on 28inch image is sharp and colors have better contrast and saturation.

Is it worth upgrading from a 27" WQHD monitor to a 4K one? Moving from FHD to 27" WQHD gave me a lot of screen estate to play with, not sure if 4K will be better since I may have to increase the display scaling of text/apps to see it.

Another point to consider...
FWIW, there are currently 14% and 10% cash back rebates for samsung.com (other listing).
As the previous user pointed out, however, the 28" will offer higher DPI in an IPS panel than the 32" VA. Could just depend on your eyesight and how close you are to the screen too with respect to which you prefer.

The vesa mount location is dumb. I made my own with some short screws and JB Weld. Otherwise fantastic productivity monitor
