WEBVTT 00:00:00.160 --> 00:00:09.920 When it comes to desk displays, Lionus is partial to 42 in. I'm partial to 32, 00:00:04.880 --> 00:00:11.679 but Samsung made the 37 in 4K viewfinity 00:00:09.920 --> 00:00:17.119 for anyone who wants something in between. That's right. You wouldn't 00:00:13.840 --> 00:00:19.119 expect it to be, but this is a world's 00:00:17.119 --> 00:00:24.640 first. I'm kind of surprised no one's made a 4K 37in monitor yet, but you 00:00:22.080 --> 00:00:31.439 know, Samsung, they did it first. Let's open this up. Now, to be clear, this is 00:00:26.960 --> 00:00:32.880 not a gaming monitor. at 60 Hz, so 00:00:31.439 --> 00:00:39.760 maybe don't buy it if you're a gamer, but I love weirdly sized displays. That 00:00:37.280 --> 00:00:42.719 LG Duelup, incredible monitor. You know, it's not for gaming, but it's still 00:00:41.120 --> 00:00:49.120 sick. This is upside down. Give me a second. In the box, we've got a bunch of 00:00:45.840 --> 00:00:51.440 cables, HDMI. I'm not saying 2.1 because 00:00:49.120 --> 00:00:58.320 I don't think it is. Also, there is DisplayPort on here. It's only 1.2, but 00:00:54.960 --> 00:01:00.879 it's not high refresh rate. Here's our 00:00:58.320 --> 00:01:05.600 DisplayPort 1.2 cable. Well, okay, the cable's probably 1.4, but [laughter] 00:01:03.760 --> 00:01:09.680 yeah, the port ain't. [music] Then we've got our power because yes, this is not 00:01:08.159 --> 00:01:15.280 going into a brick. We're plugging in directly into our monitor. And lastly, 00:01:12.159 --> 00:01:16.720 we've got a USB-C to C. Does it say if 00:01:15.280 --> 00:01:23.360 there's power delivery or anything? I don't see it. And they've got this in here because, of course, this being more 00:01:19.680 --> 00:01:24.799 of an office monitor, it is a KVM. And 00:01:23.360 --> 00:01:28.080 we'll get to one of my favorite parts in a little bit cuz it's also got another 00:01:26.560 --> 00:01:32.320 thing that's pretty uncommon when it comes to [music] displays. Simple user 00:01:29.920 --> 00:01:36.479 guide. Cool. And it works for a lot of monitors cuz yep, this is just a pretty 00:01:34.479 --> 00:01:40.960 standard boy here. And otherwise, we've just got like how to set up. This does 00:01:38.320 --> 00:01:46.240 have a supposedly super easy to setup stand. I'm going to get to that shortly 00:01:43.040 --> 00:01:48.479 here. Um I think it's toolless. Uh and 00:01:46.240 --> 00:01:53.119 the website I watched I watched Samsung's promotional video for this. 00:01:50.399 --> 00:01:58.320 They say you can do it in 5 seconds. I don't know about that. We'll try try our 00:01:55.040 --> 00:02:00.521 best. Yeah. Here we go. That's the 00:01:58.320 --> 00:02:05.600 stand. It looks pretty standard to me. [music] Standard. You like that? Then we've got 00:02:03.759 --> 00:02:10.239 the base of our stand right here. Instead of the like traditional column 00:02:07.680 --> 00:02:13.440 and a screw design, there is a column in the bottom of this one and that's key. 00:02:12.000 --> 00:02:19.200 So, you slot it in and then you twist it and then it's done. probably sturdy 00:02:16.080 --> 00:02:22.846 enough, but 37 inches 00:02:19.200 --> 00:02:22.846 makes me a little nervous. [laughter] 00:02:22.959 --> 00:02:32.879 37 in is like basically a TV. Um, I 00:02:29.200 --> 00:02:37.040 can't wait to get this on the desk. But 00:02:32.879 --> 00:02:38.480 first, let's try the 5-second stand. 00:02:37.040 --> 00:02:46.080 The fastest monitor assembler in the Northwest. I never seen anybody do it this quick. 00:02:42.080 --> 00:02:46.080 We going to go viral with this one. 00:02:46.640 --> 00:02:52.319 Done. And then if you want to take it off, 00:02:51.599 --> 00:02:57.040 Boom. >> Easier. >> Easier. Unless someone out there can 00:02:55.440 --> 00:03:00.959 prove to me that this is like ultra flimsy. Um, and it's a bad design. I 00:02:59.440 --> 00:03:04.720 guess maybe, you know, the button sticks out. So maybe you press it like you 00:03:02.959 --> 00:03:08.319 stupidly put this down on your desk and there's a thing there and it magically 00:03:06.480 --> 00:03:11.200 just so happens to be in line to press the button then it's disturbed and then 00:03:09.680 --> 00:03:15.840 you move it and then it falls out. Maybe that can happen. Will it? Pro almost 00:03:13.200 --> 00:03:21.840 definitely not. But until someone proves that that's a 00:03:17.360 --> 00:03:24.319 thing, I love this. This is like 00:03:21.840 --> 00:03:28.800 kind of amazing. And I really hope that everyone transitions [laughter] to this 00:03:26.000 --> 00:03:33.440 system cuz like man, it's it's just that easy. Holy [ __ ] That's 5 seconds. I 00:03:32.400 --> 00:03:38.000 couldn't believe it. Well, then, you know, I got it and I did it in like 2 seconds. So, yeah. This thing's awesome. 00:03:36.799 --> 00:03:44.879 All right, let's get this thing out of the box. That's what cuz you know we're already so impressed by the stand 00:03:42.159 --> 00:03:50.080 which by the way is a nice squared base. Very thin, easy to put stuff on, doesn't 00:03:47.519 --> 00:03:54.959 really get in the way. And it's a relatively small footprint for a display 00:03:52.560 --> 00:03:59.519 this big. [laughter] Oh man. Can I Can I do it onehanded? 00:03:58.422 --> 00:04:06.282 [snorts] >> Yeah. >> Oh, easy. >> Easy. 00:04:04.000 --> 00:04:09.599 You don't need help for this one. Wow. [laughter] 00:04:07.519 --> 00:04:13.920 Would you look at this? The back ain't nothing too fancy. It's not as special. 00:04:11.200 --> 00:04:17.440 Just some, you know, boring flat panel. Yeah. But then the front, we got this 00:04:15.920 --> 00:04:23.360 majestic 37 in 4K monster. 00:04:21.199 --> 00:04:27.919 Incredible. Uh, let's get this wiped up and then we'll take a quick look at the 00:04:24.560 --> 00:04:30.560 IO. We've got our HDMI port, display 00:04:27.919 --> 00:04:35.120 port, USBB, USBC, Kensington lock. Actually kind of 00:04:33.759 --> 00:04:39.120 matters since this is meant to be in offices. [music] and our power 00:04:37.360 --> 00:04:44.240 connector. And on our non-traditional side here, we've got our three USBA 00:04:41.600 --> 00:04:49.040 ports as well as a headphone jack. And what I'm really excited about, Ethernet, 00:04:46.639 --> 00:04:52.880 and it's gigabit. It's so like well balanced, too. Holding it actually feels 00:04:50.720 --> 00:04:56.320 really easy with one hand. It's a really minor thing, but when you move a lot of 00:04:54.240 --> 00:05:00.320 monitors around, like you get to tell when they feel really lopsided and 00:04:58.080 --> 00:05:05.199 stuff. When it comes to adjustability, look at this. 00:05:02.560 --> 00:05:09.919 It's actually quite a bit uh of rotation here. And then it should be able to tilt 00:05:06.720 --> 00:05:13.039 as well. 00:05:09.919 --> 00:05:14.800 And I don't no pivot. Sorry guys, no 00:05:13.039 --> 00:05:19.120 pivot. But I mean it's a 37 [laughter] in panel. 00:05:17.120 --> 00:05:25.160 Do you imagine it vertical? That'd actually be crazy, right? [laughter] Oh 00:05:20.720 --> 00:05:25.160 man. Like here I can show you guys. 00:05:27.503 --> 00:05:32.720 [laughter and gasps] That's good. Okay, so it's not going to go vertical, but it does have a ton. And 00:05:31.199 --> 00:05:36.880 then obviously there's height adjustment. Honestly, it's pretty sick 00:05:35.199 --> 00:05:41.919 so far. Let's get it hooked up on the desk over there.

Or you can even use the QR 00:06:16.560 --> 00:06:24.000 code on the screen. >> Hell yeah. Look at this. 4K 300%. No. 00:06:22.319 --> 00:06:31.919 Let's see what it looks like at 100% scaling. Honestly, too small. But 00:06:29.440 --> 00:06:36.160 can't get over how much screen space this is. Hold on, I got to bring it 00:06:33.199 --> 00:06:41.360 down. A 42 inch TV is too big. Just flat out. That's that's more like this and 00:06:37.840 --> 00:06:43.759 that's too much for me. But 37 in is 00:06:41.360 --> 00:06:50.880 like it's enough to have as a really big primary display and then you could still 00:06:46.880 --> 00:06:52.880 fit like a little 27 in vertical over 00:06:50.880 --> 00:06:56.319 here and it I think that would be great. The only problem is obviously it's not 00:06:54.479 --> 00:07:01.599 really for gaming. So, let's take a couple quick looks here at Also, it can 00:06:59.039 --> 00:07:07.280 do HDR. It's not very good. So, we're going to not worry about that right now. 00:07:03.840 --> 00:07:09.520 I I really want something this big now. 00:07:07.280 --> 00:07:14.560 It was worth it for me to go from a 34in ultrawide to a 32-in 4K monitor, but now 00:07:12.639 --> 00:07:19.440 that I've got this in front of me, I kind of want 37. I just wish it was like 00:07:16.720 --> 00:07:22.639 at least 120 Hz. Let's try gaming on it. It looks pretty good. I'll get to the 00:07:21.199 --> 00:07:27.199 actual results in a little bit here, but let's let's try gaming on it real quick. 00:07:24.319 --> 00:07:30.160 Yeah, it's 60 Hz. Hell yeah. You might be able to get away with overclocking in 00:07:28.720 --> 00:07:34.639 a little bit, but I don't think you're going to get that [laughter] much. Maybe 00:07:31.919 --> 00:07:39.840 seven 75. You know, there's a lot of screen tearing. [laughter] 00:07:36.800 --> 00:07:43.199 It's not the best motion pixel response 00:07:39.840 --> 00:07:45.440 times I've ever seen. But you know what? 00:07:43.199 --> 00:07:48.560 If you're at the office and you want to play like a quick game of Counterstrike 00:07:47.280 --> 00:07:53.120 or, you know, you want to play a game that's not a first-person shooter, this 00:07:50.880 --> 00:07:55.599 thing's awesome. Okay, I will admit this is pretty bad. I probably wouldn't play 00:07:54.479 --> 00:08:01.680 Okay, never mind. Yeah, I wouldn't play Counter-Strike on this. Um, 00:07:58.810 --> 00:08:04.720 [laughter] 60 Hz sucks, but there's a lot of more chill games that only need 00:08:03.120 --> 00:08:10.160 like 60 Hz. Like, you could play Civ on this thing. No, this Oh my god. Oh, this 00:08:07.360 --> 00:08:13.360 would be amazing for Civ. Oh my god. Or like City Skylines or something. like 00:08:11.840 --> 00:08:18.400 any kind of big resource like city management kind of game. Oh, this would 00:08:16.160 --> 00:08:22.879 actually be incredible for that. Oh yeah, it's rough when I do like a big 00:08:20.160 --> 00:08:26.960 flick or a pen. That's progress though, baby. 37 in 4K 00:08:25.520 --> 00:08:30.720 world's first. That's what you get. There's going to be some drawbacks. We 00:08:28.800 --> 00:08:34.959 know it can game. We know you can watch content on it. But how about that KVM? 00:08:32.959 --> 00:08:38.880 That's what I Yeah, got to try. I've got my laptop right here. I'm going to plug 00:08:37.200 --> 00:08:43.599 it into the port that's got a bunch of data symbols on it. Actually, can it do 00:08:41.440 --> 00:08:48.480 power and display out of the same port? USB type-C has been connected. Will you 00:08:46.320 --> 00:08:52.560 automatically switch to it? No. Okay, that's fine. There's a navigation knob 00:08:49.920 --> 00:08:56.000 on the back here. Source. USB type-C. We're connected through the right port 00:08:54.320 --> 00:09:01.200 cuz this one doesn't have Ethernet, but this one does. And now I'm getting 90 00:08:58.000 --> 00:09:02.560 watts of power delivery over USBC as 00:09:01.200 --> 00:09:09.519 well as Ethernet. Let's see how good the connection is. Let's do a speed test. See if we actually get gigabit. This is 00:09:06.080 --> 00:09:11.839 not looking good for gigabit. Well, 300 00:09:09.519 --> 00:09:17.120 up and down isn't bad. It's actually pretty good. But there's a bit of an 00:09:15.200 --> 00:09:23.360 issue. If you want to do all of these things, 4K, 90 Ws power delivery, and 00:09:21.360 --> 00:09:26.560 gigabit Ethernet, you're not going to get that. [music] Unfortunately, what 00:09:25.120 --> 00:09:33.680 you're going to have to do if you really need gigabit is you're going to have to go into the menu, go into [music] USBC 00:09:31.680 --> 00:09:37.920 preference, and instead of high resolution, you have to change it to 00:09:35.600 --> 00:09:45.600 highspeed data. That's going to drop our resolution down to like 1920 x 1280, 00:09:41.120 --> 00:09:47.600 whatever my laptop is natively. Um, but 00:09:45.600 --> 00:09:54.320 we're going to retest this. Look at that. 913 down, 888 up. That's pretty 00:09:51.519 --> 00:09:58.676 solid. It is a little annoying that you can't get all of it in one package at 00:09:56.720 --> 00:10:02.880 the same time, but you know what? 300 [music] megs is solid and probably good 00:10:01.120 --> 00:10:06.720 enough for most people. But what's this thing like when it comes to color 00:10:04.399 --> 00:10:11.279 performance? well, with just a few minor settings. In SDR, we're measuring a 00:10:08.640 --> 00:10:15.279 little bit over a delta E2000 average of one. So, it's color accurate for just 00:10:14.079 --> 00:10:21.040 about whatever you're going to want to do. Now, when it comes to HDR, 00:10:18.240 --> 00:10:25.360 not so much. We're getting a delta E ITP average of just under 23. It's a regular 00:10:23.680 --> 00:10:29.279 edge lit panel. There's no foot array local dimming. I don't recommend this 00:10:26.800 --> 00:10:32.560 for HDR, but for office work, I think it's absolutely incredible, especially 00:10:30.720 --> 00:10:36.640 if you want like a one monitor solution. Like, this is great for like a hot desk. 00:10:34.640 --> 00:10:39.600 This is a great size for like grabbing one [music] window and then putting it 00:10:38.079 --> 00:10:45.200 to the side and, you know, having whatever else you need up. At around 00:10:41.519 --> 00:10:46.720 $580, it's a little expensive, but for 00:10:45.200 --> 00:10:50.880 office equipment, it's not that bad, especially considering the size and the 00:10:48.560 --> 00:10:54.800 fact that it's also 4K. It's a KVM, it's got all these extra features. If this is 00:10:52.959 --> 00:10:57.839 the monitor for you, you'll probably know and you should definitely consider 00:10:56.480 --> 00:11:04.160 picking it up. Thanks for watching, guys. This is the Samsung Viewfinity S8, 00:11:00.399 --> 00:11:07.200 the world's first 37in 4K monitor. I'm 00:11:04.160 --> 00:11:08.320 Blof. I'm the world's first uh me. 00:11:07.200 --> 00:11:11.360 >> No, >> you're the first one.
