Hey Chaps! Would you want a TV/Monitor combo??
Yes man. 😀
I think it's great because there's a 4k option which is great for consumption, great compatibility with phones, and the TV features can be really nice - for example not constantly needing it to be connected to a pc or laptop
Awesome it would literally benefit me after a long days worth of work
yes, but 32 inch just is too small when coming from 38+
@@falkoewald4403 it's not meant to function as your main TV lol
Me having a 65" smart tv in my room but still watching Netflix on my phone
y tho i have 1 and i dont even use my phone ngl were r the laziest shits
Thats the thing about phones, they are extreamly more convenient than using a laptop or sitting somewhere watching a tv.
@@masterkc Laughs in iPad
Most people here are 😂
you need a good projector to watch your video on your ceiling. not a tv or cellphone. couch potato must have
i remembered a time when a 32" TV was considered a BIG TV already... now, 2021, 32" is an IDEAL MONITOR size for PC... Anyway, this is a great gadget if you need an all-in-one monitor that wont take up so much space. Ideal for dorm, small room, or if you just need an extra monitor that you can put it anywhere around your hose without any external stuffs.
WOW, this was a shockingly accurate review despite being sponsored. Gained huge respect
As a college student I have been looking for something like this for a long time! Specially when it has AirPlay built in
I'm not the biggest samsung fan but one thing i've noticed and surely appreciate is the fact that samsung does not tell people how to review their products or pick reviewers who r fanboys and only have positives to say, they listen to consumers complaints to and fix them, heck they even let their workers own iphones...all these are things apple would never do
because apple is ur father and samsung is still a child in learning phase
@@natebear8833 sounds like u had a toxic father, explains your attitude
@@ridgefrost yeah
but ridge, you sound like a samsung fan and apple hater
Ssp ssp samsung fanboy confirmed
This monitor has been a life saver. We have 3 computers for a family of 4. We all have samsung phones (S8, S9, S21). I use Dex or remote in to my office desktop when all other computers are in use.
Excellent review! Thank you for doing this. I was literally sold after the first 1:22 made my shopping and research super easy!
The reviews on the samsung website aren't great, FYI
@@danielbocelli but they have improved
Would it be possible to provide more details on how well it protects the eyes? Is there blue light protection & is it flicker free , TUV Certified etc?
The idea of this monitor is pretty cool for me. I always love multi function device like this one
Kind of wish all monitors had these features. Can't really cost them that much to implement.
What would be the point on a monitor that is connected to a computer? If you dont have a computer to connect to it why would you not be buying a smart tv instead?
@@creaturecore13 True lol
I take breaks while my Mac is rendering, and play games or watch Netflix. In that case I think a smart monitor would be very useful as it takes some strain off the Mac so it can render and do what it needs to do.
It’s all about sales. More money if they keep it separate
Hey Tech Chap could you please recommed the best monitors for the new PS5 im in the market to get a new one thanks as always love your content Cheers Mate
Thanks for the informative review! I've been getting sick and tired of the 'HD Ready' resolution TVs that are the only 32" TVs officially available for us to buy here in Singapore, and so I was thinking of buying a Samsung Smart Monitor to use as a TV with a Full HD or higher resolution display. A built-in DVB-T2 tuner isn't important to me as I have pay TV. However, even though I'm able to get meWATCH on it (Mediacorp's equivalent to BBC iPlayer), as well as CZcams, Netflix, Disney Plus, Spotify, and TuneIn Radio (I tried a relative's Samsung TV and a retail demo at a Harvey Norman store), that kind of display AND only 2 HDMI inputs, plus the possible lack of Samsung's universal control feature, leaves me to look elsewhere for a better bedroom TV. I might even be fine with using a computer monitor + HDMI switch as a TV, even though that would mean I have to get out of bed in order to change the brightness unless I use some kind of microcontroller setup that would hook into the front panel PCB. Besides that, another option I have would be to import a 32" Full HD TV from the UK via a package forwarder. Samsung TVs sold in the UK seem to only allow UK or Ireland to be selected for the Smart TV region, but I've seen a hack that could allow me to bypass that, get into a service menu, and forcefully change the Samsung Smart TV region to Singapore to be able to install meWATCH, or, you know, I could find something running Android TV instead.
Seems like a great solution for a college dorm room.
Thanks for your review really appreciated, I was really looking for this kind of monitor to use it in my bed room as a TV and a PC as well, so it meets my requirements, 👍🏼
The USB C port does allow charging, at 8:00 it does say 65W.
He never said that
@@kylebate733 He said that it didn't support charging...
At the port is a „65 watt“ label, so it does support charching!
Yeah you can see it on their website
i charge my phone at 'fast charging' and really realy fast
Exactly what I was looking for.
Thanks for the great review. About the color distinguishes, which you mentioned a cons for this monitor, does it impact on 3d modelling for such as interior design works?
I would love this! I currently don't own a tv and mostly use monitors to code, so this would be a great combo😍
Love your content. You’re amazing! :)
Thanks for the good review. I agree with everything you said. My Apple Cinema Display died and though I will eventually get it repaired I bought the Samsung as a stop gap for work. Initially I bought an LG HD but returned it after a few days and upgraded to the Samsung. The colours are not as rich as the Apple display, but at the price ($699 AUD) it is still really good and usable. Sound is fine for a workspace and I really like the remote. Overall, I am a happy customer.
Does it have PIP PBP Multi View switching between the USB C & HDMI (Wired) inputs?
Could you share the link to your wallpaper? It looks awesome!
Great review, good balance between the + and -!
This is a dream tv /monitor I love to have. It meets the need of a basic home and office. The price is good.
Thank you for this video! I was wondering if there was any lag for using airplay on this monitor and it shows! Good thing since I was about to buy one only for airplay!
Isn't the TU87F the Thunderbolt version you say they should have? I just picked an M7 up and I'm happy enough with it that I just ordered a second one! (I don't need Thunderbolt as both will hang off docks)
Hi, can we use it as a standard computer monitor connecting any Desktop computer or a TIny PC?
The anxiety that Tom might knock over his mug off the desk is astoundingly high in this video.
Hee....I didn't notice a mug 🤯
Lmaoooo facts
Hi, Could you please let me know if you can plug a HUMAX AURA 4K Recorder into the HDMI Port to enable Freeview TV Programmes?
I think the remote is a good selling point. Not so many monitors ship with a remote these days.
great vid Tom! x
Haha "remotely" 3:21
Great review! Thanks for showing the Windows 10 wireless display option & SmartView support. And couldn't do Wireless DeX on Chromecast (Gtv), so this should be great!
I think it does have 65W USB-C charging.
Cheers from Toronto 🇨🇦
I was looking at this, but ended up opting for the LG 32 inch ergo display. I wish this review was out a few weeks ago though, this may have swayed my decision a bit.
Hello, I got this monitor about a month ago and I love the monitor with one exception.. the audio doesn't always play from the monitor to my laptop when I have this playing using the USB-C cable provided and also tried a thunderbolt cable with no luck... Does anyone else have this issue? or if you haven't had this issue, what is your wiring set up? I hope to hear back from someone.
So can this display both output display and charge my laptop at the same time when connected by USB C? i have a Dell XPS 15
That's what I thought just yesturday. "There must be a Smart monitor out there". Thank you for the information.
Hello! If i connect a Samsung USB Type-C to 3.5mm headset jack in the M7 monitor will i be able to use it for headphones or Logitech Speakers with 3.5mm jack? Thank You
Hey, sup ?
I would like to know what shield does your note 20 ultra have ?
Please answer 🙏🙂
I just brought this from my local store can't wait to get it set up
@Thetechchap would this monitor do for a video editing? Is the color accuracy too bad? :)
hi, do you prefer HDR- or SDR-Gaming on your LG 38WN95C? :-)
Is there any advantage of using the smart monitor for my pc, over using a smart tv as a monitor for my pc?
I think this is what I need. Home office is going to have to turn into a nursery so will need to move the office into the spare room. Desperate for something that can be used as a TV. Tried using my existing Samsung Monitor and though it’s a decent size it just feels wrong watching shows or playing a PS4 game.
I think this is the one!
The Built-in USB-C port and the Airplay feature are the two things that convinced me to get this monitor since I'll be using it with Macbook
can anyone explain to me how it is that in some images there seems to be way more screen real estate vs others? is the resolution being adjusted for each case?
This is the perfect product for my needs, but like you mentioned, I wish I could pay a bit more for 90/120hz and better colors.
I wish they had an AMOLED model and a VA model.
IPS can suck it.....
@@PSYCHOV3N0M It is VA.
@@lgquelhas Oh really? Awesome.
@@PSYCHOV3N0M I hate IPS as well. Can´t stand those "grey blacks".
@@lgquelhas I’m going to be buying this as a secondary monitor/tv for my personal room, my main will be 144hz ips 4k
Great Video! I don’t need the smart tv (already have a tv in my office) but need Apple AirPlay for my laptop when I can’t be plugged in. I am looking at this Samsung 32" M70A 4K UHD Smart Monitor. Would you recommend this. Thought about consolidation and going with like a 43 but so big for Business work Thanks
Great info my dude. Thanks a ton
Thanks, coz of your vid, I can finally made up my mind 😊
Does it have PIP PBP Multi View switching between the USB C & HDMI (Wired) inputs? Esp on 43M70A?
Link to the other monitor you’re talking about at 10:08?
I like the comic cover intro image! I should add that I use a basic 6 year old Samsung TV as my ZOTAC Computer monitor. I purchased it originally to use as a large screen Chrome Mirror for my Samsung Edge. This never worked without crashing so the $99. TV was drafted as my travel monitor. I have vastly superior Integrity and Shap TV.s. However the Samsung is more easily moved around and has proved to be remarkably rugged.
Just a question does this monitor support screen split? For multi task?
Which one you recommend : 43" Smart Monitor M7 UHD or 34" CJ791 Ultra-Wide Curved QLED WQHD Monitor ? I am not gamer .
Can you connect a sky digital TV box to this TV/ monitor and use a dvd player with it? Looks like it should have a touch screen but that would be a dream TV/ Monitor and can you adjust the size of the screen output if your visual impaired? Like the idea of having DeX and an office app it would be nice to have a built-in camera like a tablet and portal from Facebook? But with USB support plug & play USB cameras are available but it would be interesting in a future one?
It says on the Samsung website it can charge your device using the usb c port on the monitor. Interesting.
love the review, i am thinking of getting this or the lg smart monitor with the ergo stand but before i invest, any know whats the same thing but better?
hi, can this monitor connect a webcam and use zoom for meeting without desktop/notebook?
Is it an all in one like the IMac? I want to know
Great review! Perfect for my setup!
Hey I was asking that if I have a 32 inch tv from samsung and i was looking to switch to a 32 inch monitor and i am wondering if the dimensions between the 2 are the same
Does it have settings to enable IP control and wake on lan? These settings are under “expert settings” under the network settings os most Samsung Smart TVs
I just ordered it. I thank you for your video. I think it is a wise choice for monitor/ smart TV. It is currently out of stock currently till early Feb 2023. Hope it worth the waiting. Merry Christmas.
Is this good for Graphic designers? I do only logo design. what do you think?
Seems like a nice 2nd monitor in most gaming setups. One qhd 144hz for gaming and then this one for streaming content or watching videos
I currently have the same idea but i use a full HD 240hz for gaming and a 144hz 1440p IPS panel for the rest/casual gaming. But i want more space on my screen because i have discord, a game, internet, ... open all at once. So ill stick to the 240hz for gaming but might swap my 1440p screen for this 4k monitor with all these build in options. I know the quality of my 1440p panel is better but all i need that monitor to do is open internet, work on documents and watch netflix.
Nice summary video!
I plugged in my cable box with an hdmi port and the other hdmi port my laptop. Is their a way to split the screen with 2 different hdmi ports or is their other way to have split screen - computer/tv.
good review, thanks! wow, it wont charge a macbook pro off the USB-C port? thought i read in the specs this was a feature with this ... appreciate it if you could confirm. TIA!
How many of these screens can you connect to one machine at a time?
I would go for this as an overhead monitor and replace an older 40inch TV which I watch from bed. I wouldn't use the cloud productivity apps since I'd just use my main computer, but I would use the streaming apps.
Would rhis be the same for the samsung odyssey g7? With the widows and all of that
How to control extended screen? .. Is it possible with TV mouse and keyboard which is connected by cable or Bluetooth on TV?
Samsung website says it charge usb c connected laptop as well as take data from it.... I hoped you would have talked a bit on
audio connection port for Netflix (5.1 speakers)
Sry I didn't pay attention but do u even need any attachment apart from mouse and keyboard? To play games
how would you compare this with the recent LG OLED 42 inch TV that you are using as a monitor please?
I use mine with my Apple TV 4K. It works and looks good. I am quite pleased with mine.
Do they make this in bigger sizes too plz? Thanks!
You didn't mention if you can watch media from memory sticks. Fairly important feature for some. also can you only screen mirror if you have a Samsung phone?
just bought mine, couldn't be happier, Microsoft flight 2020 never looked better to me. Im sure it would if i spent another $500 But seriously this display is awesome for the price and lets be honest no matter what you buy now, in 1years time there's gonna be something better for another $500 etc etc. Get it NOW its great
How does one print from the included Microsoft 365? I receive a "not supported" message when clicking print.
Hi, This monitor also works with Wi-Fi or it has to be connected to a cable to have internet.
Anybody know about the input lag on this? Considering this to use with an Xbox Series X/PS5
I have some movies on apple tv and youtube that are 4k and hdr. In youtube I can’t see the settings to know that it’s playing 4K and HDR. But in Apple TV, I cannot see any settings where it tells me that it’s playing 4K content in HDR. Does the content automatically play according to the resolution?
By built in office 365, do you have to still pay the yearly subscription for it? or does the smart monitor itself actually come with it? Its a STEAL if it comes with it. Im actually interested in this monitor either way. ooh and what is the refresh rate? Thats something id like to know.
Can we get sound using ubs-a,or usb-c adapters to 3.5mm on this monitor,since there's no headphone jack?
This is an amazing monitor in my opinion because for many years I've been using an old TV from like 10 years ago and the most it can do is 720p 30fps I bet there is a big change.
So connecting this via usbc constantly with my MacBook will it damage the battery??
Just got one at Best Buy for $299. I'll be using it for editing and VFX but I'm somewhat colorblind and for color correction I'm highly reliant upon scopes and meters. I also have a 27" qhd monitor that has better color options. The size and it being 4k is an awesome upgrade for having more room for my workspace windows.
Hi, I plan on getting one for homeschool and gaming. Do you still think this will be good monitor?
Finally someone made it. I was waiting for a smart Monitor for years.
@@3cents3 are you serious? There is a day and night difference between monitor and tv.
I appreciate being able to cast to the TV. Don't have a laptop or desktop connected to it no streaming device either.
For console gamer, this or Benq ew3270u for the same price?
I’m going to hold out a little while longer. My 4K lg monitor does the job for now.
Hi is quality good if playing games at 1080p? Thx
what was the model you introduced in the last part of the video?
Thank you sir for the Samsung advert! 👍
Hi how can I use the monitor as remote access. Samsung tech support wasn't any help
Would you recommend this screen for Play Station 4…
Is it good for gaming …
Yay thanks for this video I have no laptop to screen record to it but do you think the M5 is the same as the M7? Cause I got a budget
I would prefer the m5 over the m7, the m7 is a overpriced a m5 will do you good
Can it be wall mounted?, thanks for the review
Thank you for your video 👍🏼
