My pre-order delivery keeps getting pushed back. When I spoke to Samsung, they said "we only expected about 300,000 pre-orders but we received 990,000 pre-orders" 😯
I feel like a huge missing component about the studio display that doesn’t get enough mention is that it only allows 1 device input. I could never get a monitor that doesn’t easily allow me to plug in multiple computers/game consoles/etc. that’s a big plus for the M8
In the way of a normal user and not a PRO then this is a good monitor. Comparing it to the pro xdr display there is no competition. Also the pro xdr has a price according to what it actually offers in that price range at a real lower cost.
I have a M7 version of this monitor. The ratio between the price and quality was excellent at that point of time. After using a 32" monitor (M7&M8 are having the same format) I would opt in for 34" because I would be able to fit 3 browser windows in vertical mode. And if you sit close to the monitor, while working from home, the edges seem to be blurred a little bit and you need to reposition yourself to have a better view. I think maybe a curved screen could fix such distortion. Nevertheless I appreciate such concept and like the design and functionality of these monitors.
@@Phuamt I have the m5 1080p 32 inch version wich doesnt have usb c but appart from that wgerything else works well. For casual use 1080p is good and the smart fewtures work smoothly. The speakers are better than some tv speakers but no bass.
BIG question: When connected to a Mac, how long does it take to respond when coming out of sleep mode? Apple Studio Display at the local Apple store wakes up immediately and I've heard that non-Apple monitors can take excessively long to respond.
as someone who is using a 175Hz, 2K monitor at the moment and having used the M7 monitor previously, if this only had 120Hz it would be perfect for anyone doing mostly productive/casual gaming. Yes while it's true for people who have never used 120Hz before they'd never notice the difference but anyone who has used anything above 60H, going back you'd almost notice instantly and the difference is very stark.
I don’t think so, but it’s a great bargain. Samsung would need to likely match the sales of the Mac Studio too, that fan base is pretty strong. I’m not sure how strong the monitor market alone compares…
@@MarsorryIckuatuna That's pretty easy to do. Samsung has more customers than Apple does, and with them always have the better less expensive options while also have more features, will surely bribe customers in their favor. 😌👍
Love the right amount of thoroughness of your review, Tim. You’ve got yourself a new subscriber! Quick question - Did I heard right when you say the monitor will also charge the connecting laptop via cable? Considering M8 to be used with my MacBook, would you reckon it as a good combo?
Yes absolutely! I have the M7 version of this monitor, and it works perfectly with my Macbook. I use a thunderbolt cable solution, the monitor can charge up to 65 watts!
Recently bought a Lenovo monitor because it was a little better looking than the typical monitors to go with my Mac mini. Then this was announced and an even more perfect option…. This monitor might make me resell my Lenovo model
Thank you for this great review, Tim! Yes, I am seriously considering about 2 of these monitors for the price of Studio Display by Apple. I don't think I can live with 27-inch, $1500 screen estate; I'd rather go with 32 X 2 = 64-inch screen estate if it was the same price, plus more features. I don't care about the 5K resolution and built material. Cheers!
MKBHD was writing this monitor off due to it really looking like an iMac - but I legit think think monitor bridges that gap of TV or monitor. All the connections and apps were really well thought out. I do think the no-VESA mount is a definite bummer - but most won’t mind that
@@TechWithShon and less functions. I swear people say dumb shit.. yeah there's always a cheaper option. Why mention it unless it can do everything this can?
Good morning ! Thank you for this instructive video! I have a question: can this monitor be used for graphic design? If so (as Apple just released the overpriced Display + Studio screen and I need to replace my old 27'' IMac), I would like to know if it is possible to plug in the Samsung M8 screen to my 16'' MacBookPro? I would like to use it as a server. Are there enough connectors to connect the mcbook pro + an external hard drive + a keyboard? Thank you for your reply ! (sorry for my english !)
What is the text image quality like? What is the productivity experience like over a day, typing, reading and sharing work. I get it is an awesome "TV" but how good a "monitor" is it. I feel like all the reviews seem to pass over this critical issue. I have a MacBook Air. What if any sacrifice am I making in terms of text quality if I use this as an external display for my device?
I have the latest gen 2 Samsung M7 (there was a gen 1 also). I am using it with my 2020 Macbook Air and find the display excellent. I have compared it to other monitors. It is excellent for my usage: generally using spreadsheets, presentations, outlook, word, etc. The M8 should benan improvement on the M7.

The way the base snaps in to the back of the monitor is very unstable. When you tilt up the monitor (I don't recommend tilting the monitor), the half of connecting point are off the monitor us hanging just by 2 teeth. Besides this major flaw, this monitor packs a lot of features. I'm overall very happy minus the hinges.
I have an M7 43" that I am quite happy with. But if the new 32" M8 is any indication, I may have to pull out the old plastic money again for an M8 43" if that becomes available. It will be a toss up between that and a 42: LG 42" C2 Oled TV.
To Apple Users - The Top TVs in the world with the utmost best panels in the world for picture quality are all 4k panels spread over 55+ inches (laugable ppi right?), but when watching the TV you don't spot pixelation as you won't be viewing a 55 inch TV from up-close, unless you wanna damage your eyes. Similarly 4k spread over 32 or 27inches won't suffer from visible pixelation as from a typical viewing/working distance for a 32 inch panel, you can't spot pixels. That said this is obviously far from Samsung's best panel as that's in their Odyssey G7 gaming monitor with wider color gamut,600nits brightness in HDR (mid 500 peak in SDR), Upto 3000:1 contrast and blazing fast pixel response times at 1440p 240hz.
@@prhawkeye Yea I agree paying 1600-2300 on a monitor that does not improve your productivity (probably even worse compare to bigger size monitors) just make no sense. Most people who are buying the Studio Display just want the aesthetic disregarding the price to performance aspect of it.
@@prhawkeye I just don't know how it can "pay for itself" given that it probably reduces most people productivity compare to a 32 inch or bigger monitor. Also good build quality on a monitor is kinda useless, I don't touch my monitor, it sits in 1 place, I can't really take it with me and show it off, and it lasts just as long as any aluminum monitor lasts. Back to atheistic, to be honest, the back looks clean and nice but the front with the big bezel looks outdated to me. I guess we are different people. $1600 for a monitor is a lot to me and if I pay that much it better improves my productivity. I am a coder, i use MacBooks and I live in the U.S. by the way. There is nothing wrong about buying anything. It is your money your choice. Is it a good choice for 99.9% of user?, I am confident to say no.
5k is for media creation so that you can see 4k videos without having to do any scaling in the timeline. Not to mention the contrast of the studio display. These are not even in the same league. If you can’t tell, then you probably don’t have a workflow that makes it appealing.
This is Samsung's answer to the *Apple Studio Display* and I'm all for it. The only things I would add would be a higher refresh rate like 120 or 144Hz, vesa mount capability and possibly a bigger size mybe 38 or 41" to replace a dual monitor setup. Then it would be a *COMPLETE PACKAGE*
@@ivandrol4733 Oh my bad. I didn't look at the dates. You're right. But this is a far better option than the Apple Studio Display.

But hey if you are integrated in to the Apple ecosystem (it might be better) it's up to the person to decide.
i have got the M7 43" monitor and it is in my view to big. 32-34" is the max when you have a flat screen. the M7 has VESA mount sadly the M8 hasn't got it. for a work display absolutely fine.
how about the color accuracy? compared to the macbook monitor. im a designer and photographer.. I dont care about color pop, vibrant or many more, i just need to see what the actual color is
Im just saying, you can find this on Amazon in the used acceptable (which has almost always been looking new) for 395 dollars and that is so hard to beat
I am stuck with the set up. I tried to scan the QR code and it didn't go through and I tried to work with the remote and it didn't work for me either. I need a step by step "enabling" guide.
Hey! Thank you for the review! Can you confirm if it has PIP or PBP? Also, what is the distance from the bottom of the monitor to the desk (where the monitor sits the highest)? I am asking this because i am a tall person and I am afraid it doesn't go high enough. Thanks
I have the same color too, very disappointed with the very fragile build quality, I also have amazon fire stik at home and I was surprised that the remote control of the amazon fire stik works on the m8 monitor, turns off, turns on momitor raises and lowers the volume I was amazed! also the quality of the panel I was a little disappointed, a question, to tell you could you tell me if the remote control when you use it turns on the red led? I don't like it, the LED turns on only if it is charging and not while I use it, I saw that while you use it the LED turns on, could you confirm me? thank you
Hi Thanks for the video. Can I control this monitor using my alexa echo dot. Like switch on and switch off monitor, change inputs and channels? Is this alexa compatible? I know it has alexa built-in but is working g with another alexa device like echo dot 3rd gen.?

Hi Tim, How to use the slimfit camera as video call camera while using zoom/google meet with MacBook connected via cable? I was searching for an answer since days after the monitor is bought. no solutions found. Google duo is not available in Dubai, so that inbuild app also doesn't work.
I wish they have 120hz with that beautiful 4k resoltion plus I want it vesa mounted so I can have it ontop of my gaming monitor so I can make my dream setup for content creation and gaming.
Wow sound like a great monitor to buy, did you mention the price? Also being that it brings all these other channels goes it works without having internet to what those channels and what about Netflix and other video streaming does it require internet or you can do it from your phone.
This will be perfect for me in the UK. Our main TV channels are pathetic here. So all I need is my WiFi connection for it. Or even using my phone as a tethering hotspot (as I have unlimited data).
My laptop is Asus Vivobook S15 It has USB 3.0 gen 1 ports and HDMI. Can I use external 4K monitor by this laptop? If yes then what will be the max video output? I mean regulations & refresh rate.

IPS has wider viewing angle but other than that, the rest are mostly inferior. The contrast ratio is atrocious and don't let me even started with IPS glow issue. VA is way better than IPS especially for monitor use. It's a fact.
Hey Tim, is there any way to do audio out from the monitor? Think you can use an adaptor from the usb c out port to audio jack? I’m trying to get audio out to my audio deck where I manage all my studio sound. Thoughts?
This isn't a bad monitor...not for Pro work, tho .... for someone looking to get this, a better deal could be a mid-grade 43-50 inch 4K TV and use it as a BIG display. You can get a decent panel with HDR, dolby and acceptable blacks, ChromeCast, Airplay etc (and a bigger screen) for easily under 600 USD .... some budget brands have stepped up their game.

Samsung doing it all
This would be great for my Xbox Series S/Mac Mini setup
Thanks for them video, my monitor is snapping on to the stand as you mention, it doesn’t lock, when you tilt you see a gap?
Hi Tim,
How to use the slimfit camera as video call camera while using zoom/google meet with MacBook connected via cable? I was searching for an answer since days after the monitor is bought. no solutions found. Google duo is not available in Dubai, so that inbuild app also doesn't work.
Should work via USB - C. Restart\unplug monitor after plugging in. I had similar issue but with PC
The camera can be raised and lowered, not just tilted.
This is a beast!
Can this monitor be used with a MacBook Pro 2016 which only has lightening bolt slots?
I wish they have 120hz with that beautiful 4k resoltion plus I want it vesa mounted so I can have it ontop of my gaming monitor so I can make my dream setup for content creation and gaming.
Is it possible to extend MacBook display to 2 such monitors, both via AirPlay?
Any idea when this will be available in India or a way to buy it in India currently?
Wow sound like a great monitor to buy, did you mention the price? Also being that it brings all these other channels goes it works without having internet to what those channels and what about Netflix and other video streaming does it require internet or you can do it from your phone.
Looks to be $699 USD if you live in the U.S. Not sure about other region's prices.
UK price will probably be around the £700 mark.
This will be perfect for me in the UK. Our main TV channels are pathetic here. So all I need is my WiFi connection for it. Or even using my phone as a tethering hotspot (as I have unlimited data).
My laptop is Asus Vivobook S15
It has USB 3.0 gen 1 ports and HDMI.
Can I use external 4K monitor by this laptop?
If yes then what will be the max video output?
I mean regulations & refresh rate.
Good stuff Tim
Can you comnect two of these?
Amazing man!

Hi bro I will like u to please help me with this problem, a few weeks ago I bought an Samsung phone and, when I opened it and started to set things up I opened the settings app and it said that the app was not responding, an week later the problem had resolved, can u please help me to what went on?
1:54 and 2:06 are the same clip oddly but small edit overseen
looks like a great monitor
Noticed the same thing, thought I was going crazy at first 😅
The lack of a VESA mount and the panel being VA and not IPS makes this a hard sell for $700
IPS has wider viewing angle but other than that, the rest are mostly inferior. The contrast ratio is atrocious and don't let me even started with IPS glow issue. VA is way better than IPS especially for monitor use. It's a fact.
is this a good monitor for editing ?
The monitor is awesome. Would I be able to attach a monitor arm to it?
I would've appreciated Google Assistant built in :/
You made a very beautiful video. I follow you from Senegal
Does This smart monitor have google play store? Or other kind App Store?
Hey Tim, is there any way to do audio out from the monitor? Think you can use an adaptor from the usb c out port to audio jack? I’m trying to get audio out to my audio deck where I manage all my studio sound. Thoughts?
nice ... 32inch very nice
I have 2 SAMSUNG 32-inch M7 Smart Monitors, now I wish I had waited to get these. However, my monitors were dirt cheap because of their age.
This isn't a bad monitor...not for Pro work, tho .... for someone looking to get this, a better deal could be a mid-grade 43-50 inch 4K TV and use it as a BIG display. You can get a decent panel with HDR, dolby and acceptable blacks, ChromeCast, Airplay etc (and a bigger screen) for easily under 600 USD .... some budget brands have stepped up their game.
😍this is gorgeous!!!
