27" is too small for curved to be worth it. Curved makes sense at about 32 ultrawide and upward.

1080 on 24" looks great.
1080 on 27" looks like garbage.

1440p on 27" is the "sweet spot" between 1080 on smaller screens and 4k on huge screens.

At that price point, get an IPS 2560x1440 27" from ASUS, Dell, BenQ, etc.

Used 27" 1080p + 2x 24" 1080p at old job.
Used 4k 40" at home.
Use 27" 1440p and 24" 1080p at home.
Use 34" ultrawide curved + 2x 24" 1080p at work.

yep, this is good advice. that curved Samsung is more or less a gaming monitor.
