Samsung Electronics Launches '2023 Smart Monitor' with Enhanced Home Office Features

Pre-sale on the 10th, Official Release on the 17th

Samsung Electronics is unveiling the full lineup of 2023 smart monitors with enhanced home office and personalized features. Pre-orders for the new products will begin on Samsung.com from the 10th, followed by the official launch on the 17th.

Samsung Smart Monitor is an all-in-one screen that allows users to enjoy work, study, OTT (over-the-top) video streaming, gaming, and more without connecting to a PC. Since its launch in December 2020, it has surpassed 1 million units in cumulative sales in about 16 months.

The 2023 Samsung Smart Monitor lineup includes three models: the UHD resolution M8 (32-inch, 400 nits) equipped with an Internet of Things (IoT) hub, the UHD resolution M7 (32-inch, 300 nits), and the Full HD resolution M5 (32-inch and 27-inch).

This year’s new products reflect rapidly changing consumer lifestyles. Users can search and execute Smart Hub content and services using a mouse and keyboard. The multi-view feature, which allows two tasks to be performed simultaneously by splitting the entire screen, is included to enhance work and study efficiency. Usability of the workspace, which provides all work-related sources and services on one screen, has also been improved.

Additionally, personalized features such as pivot (horizontal/vertical rotation) and height adjustment (HAS) have been enhanced. To reduce eye fatigue during long monitor use, the monitors apply AI picture optimization that automatically adjusts in 42 steps according to the surrounding environment, Eye Saver Mode, and Flicker Free technology that minimizes flickering.

The new products support the Matter and Home Connectivity Alliance (HCA) standards based on the SmartThings Hub, enabling automatic connection, control, and management of various devices. The microphone and light sensor on the monitor can also be used as IoT sensors.

Samsung Electronics is introducing 'My Contents' for the first time in the new smart monitors, a feature that maximizes the advantages of the smart monitor. When the smart monitor is connected to a mobile device via low-power Bluetooth (BLE), it recognizes when the user approaches the monitor and automatically displays personalized information such as weather and time.

The new products also come equipped with the Gaming Hub, a game platform integration service that supports cloud gaming services such as Xbox Game Pass and GeForce NOW. The remote medical service Goodoc, which allows non-face-to-face medical consultations via an app, is also provided.

We will continue to introduce innovative and diverse features that align with the home life era and hyperconnectivity trends, leading the monitor market."
