A curved 24"/27" 16:9 monitor doesn't make the slightest sense to me. I'm going to bet it's just a marketing gimmick with no real function or improvement over standard displays.

ty for your input. the reason why i asked about this is afaik this is the first time that 144hz monitors are being sold officially in the philippines.

Samsung monitors usually have quality control in their manufacturing lines and the panels tend to be good.

I never understood why Samsung highly prioritized manufacturing curved panels but at that size, I'd watch out for colour shift with the viewing angles.

what is color shift?

the curved monitors are touted to compliment natural curvature of the eyes...

If they are that new for Philippines then I'd wait and see what else becomes available.
As those are quite a bit pricey, especially for being 1080p
1080p is fine for around 21-25 inches, but for larger, it would be best (if your hardware specs are suitable) to go towards 1440p

we have 12% VAT (value added tax) for most goods and services and profit margin for distributors and resellers = higher retail prices

I would just look at the cheaper

Google > TIEMU T3206
for more info, reviews, etc. Seems quite decent given the pricing.

thanks for the input.
i agree with the price ~16000php, the provided hdmi/dsub/dvi video inputs are a plus but i think
32" is too much...

i will research further from physical stores (preferred) and lazada online (already ordered a few items from lazada before) before plunging...
