Title: Amazing product.
Review: Had this monitor for almost 2 years now. Iâm currently using it as a tv as my TCL tv stopped working.so until I can get a new TV Iâm gonna use it. The UI/OS is nothing special itâs dull BUT itâs very reliable. However the bixby assistant is buggy and often activates on its own while watching videos, airplay works good and so does the DEX software. The remotes battery life is INSANE Iâve only had to charge it like 2-3 times in the 2 years Iâve had it. The game mode does a decent job at maximizing gameplay,although some options in game mode canât be used when other settings are selected. The speakers donât sound bad,pretty equivalent to a mid grade smart phone, the attachable camera can be plugged directly in to a computer using a USB-C cable OR attached directly to the back of the monitor using the included adapter(will only work in dex mode or Remote Desktop mode). Camera quality is acceptable, not terrible but also not the best and the built in microphone leaves a little bit to be desired. Itâs an LED panel and image quality is good for watching content or gaming.Overall itâs a well rounded product for its price. If ur a minimalist looking for a small tv and monitor combo, this is for you.Slim sleek and pretty sturdy( the top corner of the screen got assaulted by a candle that had fallen off of my shelf and it still works better than that sad excuse of a tv I hadâ¦.moving on) I highly recommend the product itâs proven to be a good choice.

Title: UNFORTUNATE, and badly choreographed
Review: Samsung M80C 32" monitor and TV: It sounded jazzy and exactly what I wanted, albeit pricey, so I eagerly, with excitement, awaited its arrival and dropped everything and started setting it up the moment it arrived. It had a "swivel and spin" base that was VERY cool, and a "sticks with a magnet" cam recorder that was interesting as a (perhaps unnessary) bell and whistle. It arrived beautifully wrapped and packaged. But its SETUP failed, rather spectacularly, even with 50 minutes of intense telephone guidance from a Samsung tech specialist ("Call this number for help," the promotional material promised, without avail). This (very flawed) monitor would not, could not get synched to my existing (Microsoft Windows 11 Pro and Google-oriented new Dell XPS computer. The PROBLEM MIGHT LIE in Samsung's remote control. BEWARE!! It's as uncooperative and screwy as an Appalachian mule--and perhaps (I say, half in jest, "possessed by an evil spirit"). This was the most spectacularly unsuccessful computer or computer peripheral I've ever encountered. I returned it to Amazon after four or five annoying and unproductive hours. I'm grateful they fully refunded its purchase. If you're considering getting one of these, know that Samsung usually produces rather fine products, but THIS ONE, baby, needs another think-through and a LOT of tweaking. x

Title: Great Modern PC Monitor that functions as a TV as well - Great Price for what it offers
Review: I bought the new 2023 Samsung M80C Monitor 32-inch version after seeing it on an Amazon Early Black Friday Sale for $400.This is a great value monitor for the price, which is excellent for multi-tasking and functions both as a PC and TV, is capable of 4K, and reaches fairly bright levels with 400 cd/m2 nits of brightness that get realized once you change the picture settings to the dynamic & entertain mode.I was originally in the market for the 27-inch monitor, but surprisingly, that smaller version was $250 more expensive than the 32 inch one and went with this one instead solely because of the price.The TV has built-in Samsung Tizen OS and it works surprisingly really well and it is fairly snappy and responsive. If you have Samsung Appliances in your kitchen like I do, the Samsung SmartThings application will give you neat notifications when your dishwasher or microwave is finished washing or cooking. If you're invested in the Samsung Smart "Ecosystem", this is a particularly great buy. Itâs pretty cool and future tech/smart house oriented.The Built-In Microsoft 365 platform is definitely gimmicky as it's super slow and virtually unworkable but the Streaming TV apps like Netflix, Prime, Hulu, Disney, Paramount, Apple TV etc. work fine and great. Apple Airplay 2 also works great with negligible latency on my Wi-Fi Network.My only ânegativeâ nitpicks is that I wish this had a 120hz refresh rate for further future-proofing but it's really not that noticeable when you're doing everyday productivity tasks like Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and E-Mail. Another downside is that the SlimFit Camera works fine (when it works) but sometimes you have to detach the magnetic holder for a second and reattach it so that it shows up on your PC's options for Teams, Zoom, Google Meet, or WhatsApp calls etc. The Camera's implementation could have been a little better....I will say it's workable but can be a minor nuisance. Do I think it's the worst thing in the world as some comments have? No, the negativity is overblown. The quality of camera is decent as far webcameras go per visuals and microphone quality, don't expect anything out of this world. It's neither bad or good. Finally, the Built-In speakers are blah. They get the job done in a pinch but I'll probably supplement them with something robust down the road. Please note that there is no 3.5 mm audio jack on the monitor so âtraditionalâ external PC speakers won't work.Back to some Positives:It also has built-in 65W USB-C charging for a laptop, so that's very convenient! There is a total of 1 HDMI Port, 2 USB-A Ports, and 1 USB-C Port built-in the monitorâs rear. The 2 USB-A Ports become âhubsâ for your PC if youâre connected via USB-C.The design itself is super clean and modern, usually you pay a serious premium for a design like this in a monitor so kudos to Samsung for making this middle-class attainable lol. For what it is, what it does, and its price, it's definitely a win and keeper for me. It's a unique product in a world of run-of-the-mill standard PC monitors!Update After 2 Weeks:The USB-C Port on the monitorâs rear can carry both charging *and* video signal which means that if youâre connecting via USB-C, you do not need to use the HDMI port for visuals. Additionally, the USB-C cable supplied with the box is surprisingly speedily robust even though itâs not âThunderbolt 3 or 4â certified. Iâm using it with a 13th Generation Intel i5 Laptop and 10th generation Apple iPad and itâs working fantastic.***Important***Finally, the Monitor also works really well and seamlessly with Samsung TV Soundbars from 2022 and 2023.The HDMI port on the monitor is an HDMI-ARC capable port even though it isn't specifically labeled as such (which was and is a major oversight on Samsung's Part) â this wasnât written anywhere in the manual or any documents I could find online on their website so imagine my pleasant surprise when I took the chance to hook up a Soundbar I bought during Black Friday 2023 via the monitorâs rear HDMI port and connected it to the HDMI-ARC opening port on a Samsung S61B Soundbar to find that that soundbar worked and integrated right away with the monitorâs Tizen system and remote. The S61B soundbar is white and lays virtually flush on the bottom of the bottom of the monitorâs stand. This is one major positive of getting your external speakers from Samsung versus other brands.If you hate the built-in sound of the monitor and your monitor's HDMI port connection is not being utilized, I would highly recommend pairing this monitor with the Samsung S61B Soundbar.The Monitorâs Sound is now really fantastic especially for apps like YouTube for Music, Movies, Podcasts, etc.

Review: Tenia muchas dudas de comprar este monitor porque los reviews estan divididos, la caja llego en malisimas condiciones, por lo que mi incertidumbre aumento, pero por fortuna el monitor esta intacto y con todos sus accesorios en perfecto estado. Es un monitor excelente en casi todos los aspectos, muy estetico, ademas que se transforma en una Smart TV, lo queria para conectarlo a una Macbook por usb-c y funciona de maravilla en 4k. Antes de comprarlo habia regresado 2 monitores mas costosos que este de otras marcas porque se veian fatales con las Mac. Ojala que en su sucesor Samsung aumente el refresh rate a 120Hz y mejore la calidad del sonido para que sea aún mejor. Al precio que se encuentra actualmente es la mejor opción del mercado 🙂

Review: We have an open concept living room, office, kitchen. This was purchased to be multi-purpose for my computer and entertainment. We absolutely love this product. The built in speakers are great, the picture is sharp, the stand is sturdy and we like how it raises and lowers. Itâs easy to set up and to become accustomed to. I downloaded the apps that werenât already installed out of the box. So practical. Highly recommended.
