Best 32-Inch Curved Monitors in 2026: 1080p, 1440p and 240Hz Picks Ranked by Owners

The ASUS TUF VG32VQ1B is the brand-name alternative to the KOORUI: a 31.5-inch 1500R WQHD panel at 165Hz with ASUS’s Extreme Low Motion Blur giving a 1ms MPRT response, FreeSync Premium that works over both DisplayPort and HDMI, and Shadow Boost, which brightens dark corners without blowing out the rest of the scene. It supports HDR-10, has built-in speakers and is VESA mountable. It asks more than the KOORUI for broadly the same panel size and resolution, and the stand only tilts. Its 3,600 owners rate it 4.5 stars, the same as the KOORUI, and cite the smooth motion, the speakers and ASUS’s warranty service as the reasons to pay the difference. If you want a 1440p curve with a familiar badge, this is it.

The KTC H32S25E is the 240Hz pick for players who want 1440p sharpness and a curve that actually surrounds them: at 1000R the panel is tighter than the 1500R KOORUI and ASUS, which fills your peripheral vision in racing and flight games. It runs 240Hz over DisplayPort 1.4 with a 1ms MPRT response, supports both FreeSync and G-Sync compatible modes, and quotes a 122 percent sRGB gamut with HDR. The edge-to-edge frameless bezel suits a multi-monitor desk, and there is an anti-blue-light mode. KTC does not quote brightness and there are no speakers. About 2,400 owners rate it 4.5 stars, citing the smoothness at 240Hz for the price; the few complaints concern the aggressive curve for straight-line work.

The KTC H32S17F is the 1080p version of the H32S25E and the cheapest 240Hz monitor on this page. The trade is resolution: 1920 x 1080 spread over 32 inches is about 69 pixels per inch, which looks soft for documents and small text at desk distance, but is easy for a budget graphics card to push at 240 frames per second, which is the point. It has a 1ms response, a 125 percent sRGB gamut, two HDMI 2.0 ports and a DisplayPort 1.4, anti-glare and anti-flicker modes and a tilt stand with VESA holes. Its 2,400 owners rate it 4.5 stars, mostly budget gamers who sit a little further back. If the monitor is for games and films rather than spreadsheets, it is a lot of screen for the money.

The Samsung Odyssey G65B is the premium version of the 32-inch 1440p 240Hz curve: the same 1000R radius and refresh rate as the KTC H32S25E, but with VESA DisplayHDR 600 certification, a 1ms grey-to-grey response, AMD FreeSync Premium Pro, and Samsung’s Gaming Hub, which streams Xbox Cloud and GeForce Now from the monitor itself with no PC attached. An Ultrawide Game View letterboxes to 21:9. It costs substantially more than the KTC, and its 4.4-star average from 2,100 owners includes grumbles about the smart-TV style menus and firmware updates that a plain monitor never asks for. For HDR that is genuinely brighter and a streaming box built in, it earns the premium; for pure refresh rate per dollar, the KTC wins.

The KTC H32S17C is the 165Hz, 1500R, 1080p member of the KTC family and the brightest budget panel on this page at 350 nits, with a 3000:1 VA contrast ratio and a 122 percent sRGB gamut that make films and dark games look rich. It supports FreeSync and G-Sync, has two HDMI 2.0 ports, a DisplayPort 1.4 and an earphone jack, and tilts on a VESA-ready stand. Like every 1080p 32-inch monitor it is soft for small text, and it has no speakers. Its 1,900 owners rate it 4.4 stars, a touch below the 240Hz H32S17F, which often costs only a little more; buy this one when it is on offer or when 165Hz is all your graphics card can use anyway.

The LG 32MR50C-B is the curved monitor for a home office that also watches a lot of video: a 32-inch 1080p VA panel at 100Hz with AMD FreeSync, LG’s Reader Mode to cut blue light for long documents, OnScreen Control for splitting the display into zones, and Black Stabilizer and Dynamic Action Sync for the odd evening game. The three-side borderless frame and a tilt stand keep the desk tidy. It is HDMI only and 1080p, so it is not for esports or fine text, but for Zoom calls, spreadsheets in large fonts and Netflix it is the most pleasant budget screen here, and its 1,100 owners rate it 4.5 stars, often citing LG’s quality control as the reason they chose it over a cheaper brand.

The Samsung S3 is the 32-inch curved monitor to buy if you want speakers in the screen and a gentle curve for work: at 1800R it is the mildest curve on this page, which keeps straight lines looking straight in documents, and the built-in speakers cover calls and video without a soundbar. The 1080p panel runs at 100Hz, there is a Game Mode for the evenings, and Samsung’s TUV-certified eye comfort combines Eye Saver Mode and flicker reduction. An HDMI cable is in the box. It is 1080p and 100Hz, so the same limits as the LG apply for text and fast games. Its 560 owners rate it 4.6 stars, the highest average here, mostly for a clean picture and a brand they trust for a work desk.
