Went to a local BestBuy store to find a deal on the cheapest 32" 4k monitor and the salesman searched the store database and found this monitor on Clearance from the warehouse priced at $102.99!! While researching this same model online through the BestBuy App and Web site, I could only find it for either full list price or on sale at $269.99. I don't know how this guy found it, brand new btw, for $102.99 but I bought it on the spot. It's only for delivery from the warehouse and will take a week to get here, which is fine. I didn't ask or see how many were still available.
If you're looking for a decent 4+ star rated low end 32" 4k Monitor with a reputable brand name like Samsung, this deal may be for you, but you may need to go to the store or call for this price. Monitor is just a monitor, no speakers, no USB hub, nothing fancy, just good quality screen, 4ms, gaming mode, 270nits, nothing fancy, just practical and great for the price, which fit my use case.

In short, it's a nice, but older, VA panel. I'm highlighting a handful of key, arguably negative specs in comparison to its contemporaries, as well as some nicer notes:

For $100, if you need a 32" monitor , doubt you'll get brandname 4k IPS at the price. Need $200 or settle for a noname one

There is also an MSI IPS (MSI - PRO MP273U 27") for about $160.
Not sure if either is worth the upgrade from a 27" ViewFinity S7.
1. VA bad viewing angles. More of a problem with larger monitors
2. Slow. Means panel makers have to come up with hacks to speed up response time which can leave to ghosting, artifacting
3. Since they are slow, you can also sometimes experience flickering when going from low to high FPS suddenly or vice versa
