Samsung Electronics Singapore has announced that its new lineup of 2021 high-resolution monitors will be available from May. This year’s portfolio delivers life-like picture quality and enhanced convenience with advanced ergonomic design.

Samsung offers five high-resolution monitors across two series – the S8 and S6. All models deliver more than 1 billion colours and HDR 10. The displays feature colour vividness and clarity through a 178^o wide viewing angle.

“Demand for monitors remain elevated as consumers continue to adopt hybrid work styles, spending time in both offices and at home. Our new high-resolution monitor lineup not only packs innovation to deliver visual details for higher quality viewing experiences, it features a streamlined and ecoconscious design to complement any desk setup. 

"As we spend more time with screens, our latest monitor range also takes into consideration users’ eye health,” said Jacus Long, Director & Head, Display and Brand Memory Business, Samsung Electronics Singapore.

All monitors are Intelligent Eye Care-certified by TÜV Rheinland, the first in the industry to receive this recognition. Adaptive Picture eye care technology optimises picture quality for any viewing environment by automatically adjusting brightness and colour temperature in response to room conditions. This ensures the most comfortable viewing experience in any environment, reducing eye strain even after extended use. 

The monitors also feature a special eye-saver mode to reduce blue light emissions which can cause eye strain, and protect the user’s eyes from any flickering on the screen.

The lineup is energy-efficient thanks to Eco Saving Plus technology, in addition to receiving the Swedish Confederation Of Professional Employees' (TCO's) display certification for next-gen sustainable products, the Electronic Product Environmental Assessment Tool (EPEAT) ecolabel certification for electronic products, and an Energy Star certification for energy-saving products. Eco Saving Plus technology reduces up to 10% of power consumption by adjusting the brightness of black sections automatically while maintaining bright and vivid picture quality.

S8 series

As the flagship model in the high-resolution monitor lineup, the S80UA provides Ultra-High Definition (UHD) resolution and is available in a 27" option. In addition to supporting UHD and over 1 billion colours, the S8 delivers a 99% sRGB colour gamut.

The S80UA is capable of 10 Gbps data transmission through its USB-C type port and specifically offers up to 90 W charging. Its connectivity features include USB 3.0 and a USB hub. The flat borderless design maximises comfort and minimises distractions while enabling near-seamless dual-monitor setups. 

Video Electronics Standards Association (VESA) mount compatibility and a height-adjustable stand (HAS) offers a variety of tilt, swivel, and pivot control points for positioning. The slim metal stand and narrow depth also take up less desk space for a cleaner, seamless work setup.

S6 series

The S6 series is available in 34-, 32-, 27- and 24" sizes, supporting not only QHD (2,560 x 1,440) resolution, but also PBP (picture by picture) and PIP (picture in picture) capabilities. The S60UA monitors not only support daisy chain technology, allowing extended multiple screen and screen reproduction, but also LAN cabling (RJ45), transforming the monitor into a docking station hub. Built-in Wake On Lan (WOL) functionality allows the connected computer to be powered-on remotely from another device.

The S65UA 34" monitor in Ultra-Wide Quad High-Definition (UWQHD) offers a 1000R curvature, further enhancing productivity with a 21:9 aspect ratio for optimal multitasking. The S6 series is also supported by customisable swivel, tilt, and rotation functionalit for the perfect viewing angle. Users can even rotate between portrait and landscape modes.

Details:

The S6OUA will be available in May, while the S65UA and S80UA will be available in July.
