Prepped for vote downs! BOOO 1080 at 27" and 60Hz. Samsung you are LATE LATE LATE to the party. Why in the heck would a non-gaming monitor use Freesync? The occasional gamer I suppose, but blah this one is for the dumpster.

Curved display for editing?

27" 1080 60 HZ ... why would anyone buy this ? Just because it`s curved ?

At least it looks like we are going to try to get more colors. You will need software that supports it to use it however and a profile to cut it back down to sRBG for everything else.

It being curved isn't helpful for editing, but the greater amount of color detail is.

depends on price, also, freesync can help for video playback too, as it can slow the refresh to match the video

on the part of size, yea, id rather have 1440 then 1080p at 27 inches, but i also lay about 10~ feet away from my monitor on my bed when i watch movies... so bigger will help with that.
