With more and more products having availability issues this now must become a criteria for you when you buy. As it happens I waited 4 months to get my G9. Samsung won’t admit it but they have recalled a huge number of these monitors because of manufacturing defect and Amazon wouldn’t tell me anything in the many times I talked with customer support. I have been kept in the dark for 4 months where I had to postpone a project that depended on it…Now the monitor: I don’t have the light bleeding issue that many had (due to glue poorly applied from what I’ve seen online), but!… Yes I do have the flickering issue when HDR and G-Sync are activated. I’ve updated the firmware and still have the issue. The solution I found is to deactivate HDR in windows by default and only activate it when I need it which is anoying when you pay this much for a monitor…Appart from that I had it for less than a week and will update my rating if I come accross any other issue or solution.Edit : And of course more problems! Now I have a dead pixel right in the middle. I will be returning this monitor asap since there is no stock at all…. Little mention to Amazon customer service for being yet again complete jerks whenever I try to look for a realistic solution. And no waiting for a repair while not being able to work is not a realistic solution Amazon.

This monitor would be top class if any of them actually worked without faults. I’ve had to send back two now. The first I bought through ebuyer and had to return it as the backlight was bleeding through the top bevel of the monitor. It was a small fault but when your paying £1300 for a monitor you expect it to be faultless! After that I had to wait a few more weeks to get my hands on another as nobody had one in stock until finally amazon did. I’ve had this one just over a week now and its already developed a fault. Every few minutes or so an artifact flashes on the screen just off center from bottom to top. I checked and replaced all leads and installed all the latest drivers but the problem persists. Checked online for people with similar experiences and sure enough there was a few (just like there is with the backlight bleed) and no way to remedy it other then to replace it.Its a real shame coz otherwise this monitor is beautiful and a joy to use. For its price point tho id expect nothing but perfection and unfortunately finding one without a fault seems to be very rare (just check the other online reviews). I cant get another replacement as everybody is out of stock but soon as they are back in I will try my luck one last time. Fingers crossed ill be third time lucky! I will update review when the time comes but now i can only give 2.5 stars simply because of the faults.
