Samsung today unveiled a brand-new high-spec monitor, just ahead of the beginning of CES 2023. The Viewfinity 5K is the latest release in the Viewfinity range and boasts a number of eye-catching specs that could appeal to demanding, pro-level users \u2014 especially those that might be considering an alternative to Apple\u2019s Studio Display<\/a>.<\/p>\n

As the name suggests, this monitor comes with a 5K resolution, making it one of the company\u2019s most pixel-heavy displays. Its 16:9 panel is fitted inside a slimline 27-inch metal frame and features IPS technology for strong viewing angles and color accuracy. Speaking of which, the Viewfinity 5K has a wide color gamut (99% DCI-P3), which lends itself to color-accurate work.<\/p>\n

There\u2019s even a way to bring your smartphone into play thanks to the monitor\u2019s Smart Calibration feature. This lets you point your phone\u2019s camera at the display and use Samsung\u2019s companion app to calibrate the monitor<\/a> in order to score the perfect image quality.<\/p>\n

Given its high-end spec sheet \u2014 and the rivalry between Samsung and Apple \u2014 comparisons to Apple\u2019s Studio Display seem apt. Both are 5K, include a webcam, and feature some very slim bezels.<\/p>\n

The Viewfinity 5K\u2019s HDR rating of 600 means it can get plenty bright too, though it\u2019s not clear yet if that is an official VESA specification or not. At the time of writing, we also don\u2019t know the Viewfinity 5K\u2019s contrast ratio, but since this is a conventional IPS panel, don\u2019t expect anything that can compete with OLED.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s also a little disappointing that Samsung isn\u2019t offering a mini-LED or OLED option. Sure, that would have pushed the price up considerably, but when it comes to image quality, nothing else compares. While the panel in the Viewfinity 5K still sounds impressive, we would have loved to have seen it switch out the IPS for something even better, as the company is doing with its new Odyssey gaming monitors<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Interestingly, the Viewfinity 5K has a matte finish rather than a glossy one. Matte screens tends to reduce how bright and clear monitors appear, but gives you the advantage of reducing glare and reflections.<\/p>\n

Still, there are plenty of options if you want to hook up peripheral devices. The Viewfinity 5K comes with support for Thunderbolt 4, USB-C, DisplayPort and HDMI 2.1, and can support 96W of Power Delivery, meaning it can juice up most laptops. It can also comes with lots of adjustability, including the ability to flip vertical into portrait mode.<\/p>\n

There are other handy extras, including a detachable 4K webcam<\/a> that can automatically center subjects in the frame, and the Viewfinity 5K doubles up as a smart TV<\/a> platform too.<\/p>\n

Right now, pricing hasn\u2019t been announced, but we expect this to be a fairly expensive monitor. Samsung says it will be available sometime in early 2023.<\/p>\n

In addition to the Viewfinity 5K, Samsung has also announced an update to its TV-like Smart Monitor M8<\/a>, which made its own splash last year at CES. The new model, the M80C, comes in a new 27-inch size (the original was 32 inches) and updates some of its smart features. All without a PC connected, a new feature called \u201cMy Contents\u201d brings photos, schedules, and weather to the screen\u2019s ambient display, while a SmartThings Hub has also been embedded for controlling smart devices from the monitor.<\/p>\n

Pricing and availability for the Smart Monitor M80C has not yet been announced.<\/p>\n
