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

I recorded a video of the ps5 and hobbit bluray on the samsung ur55 using a galaxy note 8 camera. The quality looks better than what the camera shows.

Thanks! I decided to go with an LG 2560*1440 with HDR, Free sync and 144 FPS. I've done a lot of research and feel it's a happy medium between the FPS and 4K.

The Xbox series X. I got lucky and got one last week but currently playing it on 1080 P. I'm looking forward to the new monitor.
The HDR also just looks way better on the LG.
I hadn't realized that the "HDR 400" the LG monitor advertises actually means it is also HDR10 (the 400 just specifies the brightness I guess...monitors are so confusing lol). I bought this samsung initially thinking the HDR400 of the LG wouldn't work on xbox.
Prefer the fact that the LG sits lower to the desk as compared to this Samsing. Always possible to raise a monitor but can't really lower it if desired.
Didn't dig too deep but the LG seems to have more options overall.
Both look great imo but LG worth the extra $20.
Yup tried both and 100% agree about the colors. It's typical Samsung display with the vivid saturated colors. Looks very appealing but not easy on the eyes. Prefer the LG as well

Testing both the monitors I'm going to keep the LG & return the Samsung . I prefer the colors on the LG for my photo editing work . 😊
Edit: Cancelled both orders. Went with the LG Nano and used my 10% birthday coupon. Great price.
