144 Hz (Go for 240hz these days)
1440p (Go for 4k these days)
No Dolby Vision
No Micro HDMI / eARC / USB-C lacks charging capability
Samsung warranty is lack luster when it comes to "burn in" issues.
I'm feeling the same. For games, unless you specialize in a game that is made for this kind of ratio (flight sim, driving), it's going to be weird. You'll probably have to get used to running things in a window. The picture quality, smoothness, everything else about the picture is great. I do like having one continuous screen for windows, not worrying about locking one to the edge of a screen.
One other weird quirk, these have a feature called 'pixel shift'. It seems like every 15min or so the entire screen shifts by 1 pixel. This is to prevent burn in hypothetically. In practice, it makes me dizzy every time it happens, like the world has suddenly shifted.
I'm leaning towards returning and going back to my 3 screen setup with a nicer new central screen for half the price.
As always, ymmv, but this has been my experience. I wish I could swap the 240 Hz for this one since I don't play very many games. And yes 680 is a great deal for a new 49 inch OLED monitor with a 3 year warranty.
