Change Brightness On Samsung Monitor Without Remote

I *thought* this was an HDR monitor because the Dell website listed it as Ultra High Definition in the list of monitors when I filtered for that feature...however it is not. Initially I was really upset and felt that I wasted my money. B&H really tried hard to help any way they could, but their site clearly says that it's not an HDR monitor in the detail specs tab, but I didn't look there because Dell already said it was. BUT, after using the monitor for a few weeks now, I really, REALLY love this monitor! It's soooooo big, and beautiful with awesome color depth. If you download the Dell monitor software, you can even schedule the brightness and contrast to change according to the time of day (looks like there is 2 settings: day and night...but you might be able to do more detailed scheduling). It even allows for transitions between the two settings so they gradually take effect over, say, an hour (or whatever you want.) I'm usually working with lower ambient lighting in the evening hours, so this is a fun feature to play with. I do wish it had an ambient light sensor to change the brightness automatically, but that's okay. You can even have it automatically dim the screen when your screensaver is going, to save on energy. There's also some great screen sectioning capabilities to split your screen up into multiple zones that you can dock your windows into. Since the monitor is so big, I find it rare for me to ever want to have a window full screen, so this is a great feature as well. Overall, I'm super happy with the quality of this monitor!!! Yes, I'm disappointed that I still cannot edit my photos in HDR, but I don't regret this purchase because it's definitely better than what I had before!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I upgraded my remote work setup with the Samsung 49-Inch Monitor about 2 years ago, and it has been a game-changer for my daily development tasks. Here's a brief review based on my experience: **Display and Resolution:** The expansive 49-inch screen offers an immersive visual experience. The ultra-wide aspect ratio and crisp resolution make multitasking a breeze. Having multiple code files, terminals, and documentation open side by side has significantly boosted my productivity. **Workspace Organization:** With the screen real estate this monitor provides, I can keep all essential tools and applications in view simultaneously. No more constant switching between windows — it's like having multiple monitors without the clutter. **Connectivity:** The monitor comes with an array of ports, catering to various connectivity needs. I can easily connect my laptop, secondary devices, and even gaming consoles for some after-work entertainment. Conclusion: In conclusion, the Samsung 49-Inch Monitor has significantly improved my remote development setup. Its size, resolution, and ergonomic design have positively impacted my productivity and overall work satisfaction. If you're a developer working remotely or someone who values a spacious and immersive workspace, I highly recommend considering this monitor for your setup.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this TV for my new house and I have been getting so many questions from every visitor to our house. It is extremely slim and with no visible wires, it looks very clean. There are some additional options of using bezels, but I found the default look fitting for my furniture. Art mode has many complimentary photos and I have set them on slideshow to change once in a while - and there is a built in option to switch off and on - and it puts me in awe everytime I visit my drawing room. My favourite thing to do is open up YouTube and play 4K videos of Amsterdam/Maldives and it has a built in Intelligent sensor to change image type according to image - I use it along with "Natural" mode - do try it out. Speakers are good and the remote is very slim. Smart view (casting) works very well especially if you have samsung phones since you can then watch both the tv and the cast at the same time. Integrates well with multiple samsung accounts and one account can be host and others can be guest so everyone has the remote. Overall, great bang for the buck - I would have bought it even if it was a bit more pricey since it is beating the competition any way.

Great that you can change the brightness as-well as colour temperature.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am absolutely blown away by this monitor! OLED displays are known for their high quality picture but Samsung seems to do it better! Let's start with the basics, the colors are vibrant and the blacks are true. This aside, the Samsung G8 is like a full blown TV! As soon as you get it all connected, the first thing you are greeted with is a TV like menu. You get free options like Samsung TV Plus, as well as paid subscriptions such as Netflix, Disney Plus and Prime Video. The monitor comes with a handy remote like a TV with buttons that correspond to the aforementioned subscription services. The monitor also features built in speakers that sound just fine as computer speakers but if you want something more robust, I would suggest better computer speakers or even a soundbar. Gaming on this monitor is just above and beyond! Colors pop, blacks stand out against vivid backgrounds and the refresh rate is superb! For gaming, I am absolutely in love! Overall, to say I am impressed with this monitor would be an understatement! This monitor is more than just a beautiful OLED monitor, it also doubles as a smaller OLED TV thanks to built in apps and a sleek remote!

I paired the Samsung M80C with an Apple Mac Mini and I couldn't be more pleased with the combo. I've never had a monitor with this resolution and it's made a world of difference in my work....and the game I play is gorgeous in 4K. Based on other reviews, I wasn't expecting much from the speakers, but they are a nice surprise. I've been able to free up desk space and retire my separate speakers. If there is one, very small, detraction from perfection, it's the camera's inability to be adjusted up or down without adjusting the whole screen. Oh, I also really like the remote control. I never did like pushing buttons on the back or bottom edge of a monitor and I like using the remote.

5 stars! Stable and very easy to adjust level with slider on.

The Canon i-Series ink tanks are well designed and easy to change WITHOUT getting ink all over fingers and/or clothes. They are also inexpensive and easy to order using the B&H wish list for commonly re-ordered items. Plus they are recyclable at Staples with a $2.00 credit. Such a deal!

Great monitor with awesome quality, colors and brightness!

This monitor give the perfect brightness for live shots.
