The editors liked
Highly detailed UHD image
Fast pixel response
Good gray-scale performance
Following some OSD adjustments colours were rich and showed decent shade variety. Good gamma settings from Samsung and high native bit depth helped provide one of the best colour performances we've seen from a TN panel
Contrast performance was quite good
Awesome 4K/UHD picture quality
Renders regular HD superbly
Full HDMI and Display connectivity
Sleek elegant screen design
PIP 2.0 gives you access to split screens for multiple devices
Great size for a desktop monitor
1 millisecond response time
Su
The editors didn't like
Middling viewing-angle performance
Slightly skewed greens
Limited features
The default colour setup left a bit to be desired
Particularly in terms of white point. The usual TN drawbacks with colour consistency and viewing angles applied
Some uniformity issues with our unit and a slight graininess introduced by the screen surfa
The Samsung U28D590D revealed a unique combination of a luxury product and cost effective implementation. With ‘luxury' I talk to at first about the overall appearance of the screen: The foot looks sexy, the bezels are neat and the silver edges make thing...
Abstract: We've been waiting for resolutions higher than Full-HD for a long time now but it's finally here. 2014 was the year of Ultra HD, not just for televisions but also on you're desk. Hardware.info has tested eight different UHD-monitors so far and in the ne...
No height or swivel adjustment, no VESA mount, no USB hub
Supply and demand has created numerous choices in the Ultra HD monitor category. Even though five different brands all use the same panel part, they do not perform the same. Samsung stands out from the pack with accurate color and an image enhancement fea...
Simple design and minimal connectivity, Poor contrast (650:1)
The Samsung U28D590D does the bare minimum. Despite limited orientation options and connectivity, this monitor still has one great selling point: accurate colours. Unfortunately, though, the contrast ratio is too low for it to be a good image-work monitor...
Premium metal design, Quad HD screen, Camera great in lowlight
Too big for some, TouchWiz still not perfected, Expensive
This is the best phablet ever made and it comes from a company which understand the needs of consumers looking for a bigger phone. Unlike the iPhone 6 Plus, the Note 4 offers more than just a big screen; this isn’t merely a bigger version of the Galaxy S...
Solid image quality, 60Hz over DisplayPort, Stylish design
Poor input lag, No USB ports, Lack of stand versatility
Samsung's latest bolsters good default performance with even better results once tweaked, but its lack of versatility and poor input times put paid to its prospects as a gaming monitor. The Asus PB287Q offers similar quality and improved versatility and s...

You have plenty of options to choose from if you're looking to purchase a gaming monitor. Without a doubt the best option of the 120/144 Hz Full HD models is the Eizo FG2421, which does not only convince in terms of image smoothness, but also in terms o...

Low cost screen offering 4k resolution, Decent response times from TN Film panel and support for 60Hz refresh rate, Decent enough default setup
4k resolution arguably too high for this size screen for some uses and systems, PWM used for lower brightness adjustment range, Limited stand adjustments
The Samsung U28D590D was an interesting first test for us of one of the new 28" 4k screens on the market. It's clear to see why these relatively affordable screens are attracting a lot of interest as the jump in resolution and support for 4k content is a...
Abstract: Gaming Monitor Roundup 2014 Introduction If you're considering getting a proper display to get your gaming on, you're probably looking at response time above all else. There's certainly good reason for that, but it's important to realize that faster does ...
While we have to admit that the Samsung U28D590D uses pretty cheap plastic materials for its body, this isn't something that you are going to show off your friends like a smartphone, the 4K monitor performs as it should and we find no issues on using it, ...
