Ces 2018 Samsung Monitor

I got this monitor to go with my 2018 Mac Mini. Connecting via HDMI has been flawless.

The sound bar is excellent and the so is the control software. I have a Samsung NU8000 TV (2018) and I found out the hard way that it doesn't support DTS. Any DTS input signal is downgraded to PCM stereo when using ARC on the TV :( It appears Samsung dropped DTS support in 2018 so be careful!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've been using Samsung NVMe since 2018 on 4 Mac OS machines with Raid and never a problem with losing photography, data, video or nada. I do make goofy errors but not with solid 970 & 980 EVOs keeping me out of priceless losses.

A good solid protector just remember the 2018 model DOES NOT fit the 2019 Samsung Galaxy Tab A

I really like this monitor it's a definite upgrade from my 32" samsung.

I don't know what the haters have been smoking, but obviously they haven't educated themselves... I've been using the DisplayPort 1.2 setting in the monitor menu and using a DisplayPort 1.2+ capable cable since 2018 with no issues running the monitor at 4k at 60hz since 2018. I think the haters haven't even opened their settings menus to confirm if they're using the highest version of DisplayPort on their monitor lol. It takes 15 seconds to navigate to the menu, if it's not working then switch your DP cable because you're probably rocking a 1.1 or less version that's been sitting in your closet for too long. This is one of the best value 4k monitors besides using a small 4k value tv. It has impressive color range and accuracy with 10 bit color vs the usual 8 bit you'll see even modern tvs still using, and if you haven't made the switch to 4k or even 1440p yet and wonder if the difference is worth it, trust me I have a fine pair of glasses on and the difference in clarity is night and day resolution wise for reading text like this and detail for movie viewing is quite nice and the viewing angles are amazing for value LED, the next step up from here is getting a higher refresh rate 4k oled for me eventually.

On my mac mini 2018 with a 4k monitor, I swapped an HDMI to HDMI cable with this thunderbolt to displayport cable. Huge difference! Before, the entire display was sluggish and unresponsive. Now, the picture is sharp, and the UI is smooth and responsive.

Had this monitor since 2018, and I use it manly for focus pulling. It's a great monitor, good brightness, easy to use buttons and at a great price. Construction is a bit flimsy but it's held together so far for me over 5 years for me. I am gently on my gear though, I take care of it. I wouldn't rent this out in fear of it being damaged. Only complaints are sometimes the sdi in can be a bit finicky, but it's usually the type of cable you have attached. Doesn't like a lot of strain/weight on the input. Haven't used HDMI much so can't attest to that. Throw on a large battery and this thing can run for hours! Wouldn't throw any more money into a fancier monitor when there are so many other things that are more important.

This monitor works great for what I need. I run it with a MacBook Pro (2018) and have 6tb storage connected through thunderbolt 3. I am an amateur photographer so the screen resolution and size gives me plenty of room for editing. The on-board docking is a plus. I had a small problem with the first monitor and B&H customer service was very quick and efficient in replacing it. The new monitor has worked flawlessly.

I've used this with a Macbook Pro from 2018 and my NEC Spectraview monitor on my i9 powerhouse PC and it worked great via the included software as well as NEC's Spectraview software. The lens calibration target, color checker and cube are also great. I can't complain in the least. Great product for a great price.
