Our take on the 27 S3 LED FHD 100Hz Curved Monitor
The Samsung 27 S3 is a 27-inch curved monitor with a full HD (1920x1080) LED panel and a 100Hz refresh rate. The curve wraps the screen slightly around your view, which Samsung says makes the edges easier to take in. It is a basic, budget-minded desktop monitor: 1080p at this size is fine for documents, browsing and video, but it is not sharp enough for serious photo work, and the 100Hz panel is smoother than a standard 60Hz screen without being a gaming display. Rivals at this tier often add height adjustment or a faster panel; the S3 keeps to the essentials.

Questions and answers
- Is 1080p sharp enough on a 27-inch screen?
- It is acceptable for documents, web browsing and video at normal desk distance, but text and fine detail look softer than on a 1440p panel of the same size. For photo editing or lots of small text, a higher resolution is better.
- Does the 100Hz refresh rate matter for gaming?
- It makes scrolling and motion smoother than a 60Hz screen, but 100Hz is modest for fast games and the panel lacks the response and sync features serious gamers look for. It suits casual play.
- Is the curve useful at 27 inches?
- Only mildly. The curve is subtle at this size and mostly a style choice; it does not noticeably improve immersion the way a large ultrawide does.
- Can I mount it on a monitor arm?
- The monitor uses a standard VESA mounting pattern, so a compatible arm or wall mount can replace the included stand. Check that your mount supports the monitor's weight.
- Does it have built-in speakers?
- No. You will need separate speakers or headphones connected to your computer.
- What connections does it have?
- It offers HDMI and VGA inputs, covering most desktops and laptops. There is no USB-C or DisplayPort.
