S3 S36C LS24C360EAMXUE 24 Inch Curved Monitor Review: 75Hz AMD FreeSync Gaming

For weeks, the S3 S36C LS24C360EAMXUE 24-inch curved monitor has been my primary display. This review details my experiences, encompassing gaming, productivity, and general multimedia consumption. The promise of a 75Hz refresh rate with AMD FreeSync technology for smoother visuals certainly piqued my interest. Let’s dive into the specifics.

The LS24C360 boasts a sleek, modern design. The curved screen, a defining characteristic, immediately enhances immersion. The build quality feels sturdy enough for everyday use. The single HDMI port is sufficient for my setup, though additional connectivity options would have been appreciated. The anti-glare coating is effective in minimizing reflections, crucial for extended use. Features like ControlSync (if implemented effectively) and its Eco-Friendly aspects are welcome additions. Let’s see how it all translates into practical use.

The 75Hz refresh rate is a noticeable upgrade from my previous 60Hz monitor. Gaming experiences were smoother, especially in fast-paced titles. AMD FreeSync technology effectively minimized screen tearing, leading to a more enjoyable and less distracting visual experience. The 4-5ms response time is adequate for gaming, though some slight ghosting was noticeable during very intense scenes. For general use like web browsing and video editing, the performance was excellent. The Full HD resolution (1920×1080) is sharp enough for its size, and the colors were vibrant and accurate.

I subjected the monitor to several rigorous tests involving extensive gaming sessions, video editing and long periods of web browsing. Throughout, performance remained consistently stable, without any noticeable flickering or slowdown.

However, I must note that the viewing angles, while acceptable, could be improved. Some slight color shift occurs when viewing at extreme angles.

Pros:

  • Smooth 75Hz refresh rate with AMD FreeSync
  • Immersive curved screen
  • Good color accuracy and vibrancy
  • Effective anti-glare coating
  • Sturdy build quality

Cons:

  • Only one HDMI port
  • Slight ghosting noticeable in intense gaming scenarios
  • Viewing angles could be improved

Overall, the S3 S36C LS24C360EAMXUE is a great value-for-money monitor, especially for gamers looking for a noticeable upgrade from a standard 60Hz display. The 75Hz refresh rate and AMD FreeSync technology significantly enhance the gaming experience. While minor drawbacks exist, such as the limited connectivity and slight ghosting, these are outweighed by the positive aspects. I would wholeheartedly recommend this monitor to anyone seeking a budget-friendly curved display with improved performance.
