Samsung Smart Monitor M8: What Can It Actually Do?!

[@thao]

✌️What do you think of this do-it-all monitor? 🛒 Samsung Smart Monitor M8 - shop-links.co/cgZOvs2baWm

is this the 1st of its kind?> never heard of a smart monitor b4..... thanks Thao, love your content

I like it a lot.

[@shadow11270]

I can't believe nobody has said anything about those ultrasounds! Congrats!!

[@matthewsjardine]

A lot of tech folks are comparing this to the Apple Studio Display. The challenge is that they are two very different monitors, aimed at different end users. Samsung's has a far broader appeal and is probably the better choice for most people, as it is substantially cheaper and full featured. It's IO, speakers and display is worse than Apple's (from what I have seen), but I think Apple missed the mark with the Studio Display and it is far too expensive for what it is. Long story short, I would get this instead.

[@andyH_England]

I would not compare with the Apple Studio Display as that is 5K which is better and only two devices have that resolution. So this compares with 4K displays like the Huawei Mateview. The latter is £300 cheaper in the UK and a much better monitor. I am not interested in the "smart" features as you can get those on my TV or by just hooking up a PC. This Samsung device seems way overpriced, cheap-looking and pretty average display (does not even look like it is IPS).

[@VesperJester]

How can you not compare it. The Samsung display looks exactly like M1 iMacs/Sudio display.

[@角張亜成]

South Korea is the best country in the world!

[@matthewsjardine]

@@andyH_England All fair points. I guess in trying to make the same point (i.e. they are not comparable), I threw my own point to one side and compared them anyways 😂 I have just seen folks from tech KZbin, tech Twitter and some tech podcasts making the comparison. I thought it was odd.

[@drixxer]

Also keep in mind that this monitor was announced back at CES before the apple event.

I know, I was like "now wait a minute!" lol. I'm also happy for them, congrats and such a cute way to reveal the news!!

[@kingrofty]

I was waiting so long for someone to review this monitor! Yas! The main gripe with the previous monitor, the M7, was that it didn't get very bright. This one is 400 nits, while the old one is 250 nits, so think this will be my new monitor. Thank you, Thao. 😍

[@yesterdaystech86]

Its also almost double the price :/

[@victormarian7889]

What are the other differences?

[@piotricky]

Thao, you may just sway me towards Samsung products with all your amazing reviews. This monitor seems to have it all. Perfect for a bedroom/office combo.

[@Tony_A_441]

From what I can tell this is a better and more versatile monitor than the overly expensive Apple Studio Display… I would definitely get this if I was in the market for a display.

[@jaystechroom]

Just get the m7 lol

[@OXIR]

Not to defend the Apple Studio Display's high price but it is a display for content creators, designers etc. It most probably has more accurate colours which is important for designers, editors etc so I think both are different. But this monitor which everything it includes is pretty amazing. If in the future they can use their high-end displays like QLED, AMOLED or Mini-LED it would be insane but I doubt it because of how expensive their QLED TVs are.

[@HevaNaisdey]

@@OXIR Price is never the problem. Nobody wants to make an oled monitor bc of burn in issue. Unlike phones or tablets, where people only look at for minutes or couple hours at a time, a monitor has to work around the clock. That kind of usage is not something oled panels can handle.

[@mustardroshi418]

Congratulations on the little one!

[@willthorburn1985]

I looked at the price….how does this Samsung monitor that has a ridiculous amount of features still is at a fraction of the cost of the Apple monitors? I’m amazed

[@nomismg]

Simply because its a VA panel with 60hz refresh rate. Basically a quite old technology

[@robertsmith20022]

There’s no way in HELL I’d pay that much for that apple shit, lol. This panel is the way to go

[@vervetech9395]

@@nomismg Gamers want VA panel with way faster pixel response time compared to IPS panel

[@yoann_m491]

Its a standard 4K VA panel so really not comparable, just like a Porsche cost twice the price of a Mustang. I'm not saying its worth it tho.

[@finrod_one]

Been waiting for your M8 review! You're probably the only one who could review Samsung products mainly for their potential and capabilities without having to constantly compare it with the competition. Decided I'm going with the Apple Studio Display instead of the M8 because you reviewed this so well and realised that it's not the monitor for me. Thanks, Thao!

I am waiting for a this kind of monitor where the panel is mini led and 120hz. Basically a Macbook M1 Max display in 32 inch 4k. Also glossy like Macbook as well as the picture quality of glossy displays are significantly better than matte ones given that u can control the light of your personal space. And fingers crossed for that being 1000 bucks. That would be amazing.

great review! so when I was reviewing the Samsung M7 I mentioned that the m7 does almost all, but wouldn't be for a designer/video editor, because of the screen and not for a heavy gamer since it is only 60hz. would the screen be a solid option for editors/designer?
