It’s time to demote that flat monitor you’ve been using to a secondary display. The Samsung ViewFinity curved monitor is down by $300 right now which means you can get it for just $500.
Why Go Curved?
We don’t view the world around us on a flat plain. We literally refer to it as the world around us. A curved display makes for a more immersive experience. The screen comes in at 34 inches with a 1000R curvature, displaying in a nice, wide 21.9 aspect ratio. That kind of curve is designed to match our everyday field of view, preventing eye strain. And the wide angle helps maximize screen real estate.
A Robust Feature Set
The Samsung ViewFinity curved monitor utilizes HDR10 to display a wide range of hues of color with stunning accuracy and detail. Over one billion to be precise, and the HDR10 allows for dark blacks and bright whites.
It has a refresh rate of 100 Hz for high frames per second. For the gamers out there, the curved monitor has AMD FreeSync which helps dismissing screen shuttering and image tearing. Nothing worse that that happening when you whip the camera around in the DLC for Elden Ring.
As far as ports are concerned, you’ll be able to connect over Thunderbolt 4, Display Port, and HDMI. It’s also got a built-in LAN and USB 3.0.
The curved monitor has built-in speakers so you won’t be needing any additional peripherals, maximizing your freed up desk space.
The wide aspect ratio also let’s the monitor do some cool things, like display multiple sources at the same time. The built-in KVM switch let’s you control two different sources with a single keyboard and mouse. Split the screen up how you see fit with standard split screen, Picture-in-Picture, or Picture-By-Picture.
This display has been designed with ergonomics in mind. The whole display is on a height-adjustable stand that can both tilt and swivel to your perfect viewing position and angle.
Worried about eye strain during those late nights working? Both the brightness and color temperature can be set to adapt automatically to optimal levels given your environment, without you having to give it a second thought.
Samsung normally has its 34″ ViewFinity S65TC Ultra-WQHD 100Hz AMD FreeSync HDR10 curved monitor for $800. Well, you won’t have to pay that. Right now, the price has been cut by $300. Some quick math in your head will tell you that means you’ll only be paying $500, and your head will be right!
