00:00:07,480 --> 00:00:17,560
welcome to my unboxing of the Samsung Series 9 970 monitor this thing is

2
00:00:14,759 --> 00:00:21,160
just yeah it's pretty much as as maxed out as it gets when it comes to a

3
00:00:19,039 --> 00:00:23,840
monitor so it uses you know what I'm not going to talk too much about what's on

4
00:00:22,640 --> 00:00:27,240
the inside cuz we're going to open the box and we'll see that at some point so

5
00:00:25,760 --> 00:00:31,039
experience color like never before they've got their natural color expert

6
00:00:29,119 --> 00:00:36,040
as well as L to line switching technology this is a PLS panel I've made

7
00:00:33,399 --> 00:00:40,960
it very clear in the past I am a huge fan of PLS panels which are at this

8
00:00:38,680 --> 00:00:45,520
point exclusive to Samsung they are gorgeous whether it's on the Galaxy Tab

9
00:00:42,640 --> 00:00:50,079
10.1 that in my personal subjective opinion has the best screen out of any

10
00:00:47,680 --> 00:00:54,160
tablet that I've seen to date or or if it's on their other PLS panels which are

11
00:00:52,000 --> 00:01:01,399
they have one available in 24 in and one that's available in a smaller size 1

12
00:00:56,960 --> 00:01:03,800
billion colors okay wqd 260 x 1440 it's

13
00:01:01,399 --> 00:01:08,840
not quite 2560 x600 but I'll let it slide this is an LED backlit monitor on

14
00:01:07,040 --> 00:01:12,040
the back you're going to see some more sort of Glamour Shots of the monitor

15
00:01:10,640 --> 00:01:19,040
itself but since we're going to open it up we don't have to worry too much about that on this side we see the actual

16
00:01:15,960 --> 00:01:20,720
model code which is ls27

17
00:01:19,040 --> 00:01:27,320
b970 dsen which is like I don't know if

18
00:01:24,799 --> 00:01:33,399
uh if I was going to name this monitor I'd just call it like you know the junk

19
00:01:30,360 --> 00:01:35,119
Destroyer or something like that because

20
00:01:33,399 --> 00:01:38,320
just calling it like a series of numbers and letters doesn't do it justice so

21
00:01:37,200 --> 00:01:43,280
we're going to take a quick look at the packaging inside then we're going to open this one up off camera just so that

22
00:01:41,320 --> 00:01:46,719
you guys can uh instead of watching me open packaging for most of the video you

23
00:01:44,960 --> 00:01:50,240
can bask in the glory of this gorgeous monitor I've already seen it outside of

24
00:01:48,159 --> 00:01:54,320
the box so uh we're cheating a little bit here but what are you going to do

25
00:01:51,520 --> 00:01:58,960
here's a dual link DVI cable included HDMI cable although I wouldn't use that

26
00:01:56,799 --> 00:02:05,079
use the dual link DVI cable uh DisplayPort cable that one's okay wow they

27
00:02:00,640 --> 00:02:07,399
included like every cable um USB A to B

28
00:02:05,079 --> 00:02:10,720
as well as HDMI to Mini HDMI wow yeah they really include like everything you

29
00:02:08,520 --> 00:02:14,640
need to hook it up user manual in there a hard foam but I don't expect it being

30
00:02:12,599 --> 00:02:17,680
a problem it weighs what it weighs so unlike computer cases which once you

31
00:02:16,319 --> 00:02:20,800
load them up with Hardware become a bit of a shipping Hazard uh it's not really

32
00:02:19,360 --> 00:02:26,160
a concern yeah this thing is a thing of

33
00:02:23,800 --> 00:02:30,280
beauty so we're going to go ahead and unveil it on camera here absolutely

34
00:02:28,879 --> 00:02:37,319
beautiful although pretty pretty much all of Samsung's n series products are

35
00:02:34,360 --> 00:02:40,200
just marvels of manufacturing at the end of the day I mean we've got one of their

36
00:02:38,560 --> 00:02:44,640
other N9 series monitors over there that we took a look at a while back that's a

37
00:02:41,599 --> 00:02:46,480
3D monitor again just just gorgeous so

38
00:02:44,640 --> 00:02:48,920
this one brings a few new things to the table and I apologize for not having it

39
00:02:47,920 --> 00:02:55,640
hooked up to anything we're going to do a full NCIX Tech tips on this one later

40
00:02:51,800 --> 00:02:58,440
so it uses edgo Edge glass this is an

41
00:02:55,640 --> 00:03:03,280
anti-reflective glass that is on here and that means that

42
00:03:00,920 --> 00:03:07,680
yeah basically there's there's no seam there's no Shadow from the bezel there's

43
00:03:05,319 --> 00:03:11,120
no you know the bezel masking the very the very edge of it or anything like

44
00:03:08,959 --> 00:03:15,680
that it's just one gorgeous piece of glass and then a PLS panel underneath of

45
00:03:13,319 --> 00:03:20,599
it it has a 5 millisecond delay which is actually pretty good for a high color

46
00:03:17,680 --> 00:03:26,599
accuracy panel and it also uses uh did I mention 2560 X 1440 res I think I did

47
00:03:23,159 --> 00:03:28,239
yeah I did okay 178° viewing angle which

48
00:03:26,599 --> 00:03:33,040
is pretty much what I would expect from PLS display as as well as two speakers

49
00:03:30,720 --> 00:03:38,080
so it has 7 watt time 2 speakers I'm not sure where the ah there they are right

50
00:03:34,879 --> 00:03:40,840
there on the bottom 7 Watts time 2 it

51
00:03:38,080 --> 00:03:45,200
also has minimum 90% uniformity that is built into the spec and now let's take a

52
00:03:43,120 --> 00:03:51,439
closer look at the rest of the display so it's very thin we're going to do Ye

53
00:03:48,000 --> 00:03:53,760
Old uh iPhone comparison to check out

54
00:03:51,439 --> 00:03:56,760
the uh the thinness of the display itself so it's about double the

55
00:03:55,360 --> 00:04:01,920
thickness of an iPhone which is just stunning compared

56
00:03:59,599 --> 00:04:07,040
to I have one of Samsung's old highres displays the 305t Plus at home and

57
00:04:04,760 --> 00:04:11,280
compared to uh to that this looks just like space

58
00:04:08,360 --> 00:04:16,880
age but I'm not tempted to upgrade not yet no I am but I'll I'll stick with the

59
00:04:14,640 --> 00:04:21,079
305t for a little while longer uh in terms of the overall build quality it's

60
00:04:18,680 --> 00:04:25,840
just outstanding so back here we find the uh the same kind of brushed looking

61
00:04:24,000 --> 00:04:31,039
plastic back that they have on the Galaxy Tab I a huge fan of this finish I

62
00:04:29,280 --> 00:04:34,400
actually prefer it to brushed aluminum and the reason for that is that it is

63
00:04:33,360 --> 00:04:39,759
way more durable way more scratch resistant it is

64
00:04:37,120 --> 00:04:44,479
also far less likely to get stained and ugly you can clean it a lot more easily

65
00:04:42,479 --> 00:04:47,240
um we've got a height adjust stand so it goes all the way from down there to all

66
00:04:46,280 --> 00:04:53,440
the way up here I'm going to turn around and do it again so slick don't worry too much about that and the stand again is

67
00:04:50,800 --> 00:04:58,560
just a piece of art cuz it's got you know like just like a shiny chromy thing

68
00:04:55,720 --> 00:05:03,560
going on and then like a concentric Circle sort of effect going on on the

69
00:05:00,639 --> 00:05:08,160
top they've really gone all out this is um this is sort of this is sort of an

70
00:05:06,039 --> 00:05:12,360
interesting like artsy type design so the monitor seems to hover if when you

71
00:05:10,639 --> 00:05:17,440
put it down it seems to kind of sit on nothing and that's because uh falling

72
00:05:14,840 --> 00:05:20,960
away from the the top silver piece here sorry guys this is a show sample uh

73
00:05:19,440 --> 00:05:26,919
falling away from the top silver piece here is like a black uh base that

74
00:05:23,560 --> 00:05:31,560
includes a USB hm are those USB 2 yep

75
00:05:26,919 --> 00:05:34,639
two USB 2.0 ports which are f by this uh

76
00:05:31,560 --> 00:05:38,280
this USB uh B connector here display

77
00:05:34,639 --> 00:05:40,479
port DVI and HDMI in are all accepted as

78
00:05:38,280 --> 00:05:43,880
well as power right there there's some ventilation on the bottom for some of

79
00:05:42,160 --> 00:05:48,759
those internal Electronics because there's no small amount of electronic

80
00:05:46,960 --> 00:05:53,000
Wizardry that goes into building such high resolution displays here we can see

81
00:05:51,720 --> 00:05:57,919
the construction again this is all metal

82
00:05:55,080 --> 00:06:02,080
here no plastic up here at the top um other than the backing which once again

83
00:05:59,479 --> 00:06:07,360
I told you guys I prefer that to aluminum looks just gorgeous you can see

84
00:06:04,720 --> 00:06:11,800
the fit and finish of it is just Immaculate let's go to top and it's not

85
00:06:09,479 --> 00:06:14,880
even that heavy like I can I can hold it with one hand fairly easily so it's h

86
00:06:13,840 --> 00:06:20,080
that should tell you guys something about the weight in spite of the glass

87
00:06:17,759 --> 00:06:24,039
panel so that's very very that's most of the weight of the top here you got your

88
00:06:22,080 --> 00:06:27,120
Samsung logo on there I mean that's pretty much all there is to say until we

89
00:06:25,400 --> 00:06:31,240
have a chance to fire it up so here let's uh let's just finish up up here oh

90
00:06:29,280 --> 00:06:35,479
right sensitive buttons check it out so you can select your source and

91
00:06:33,720 --> 00:06:42,360
navigate your menu with little touch sensitive buttons here very cool right

92
00:06:38,319 --> 00:06:45,720
okay so uh no pivot for this guy

93
00:06:42,360 --> 00:06:47,039
although we do have tilt oh sorry slick

94
00:06:45,720 --> 00:06:52,240
sorry we do have tilt actually you should be looking at this from the side anyway so we have this much tilt and

95
00:06:51,000 --> 00:06:55,639
then the height adjust I promised to show that from the front goes all the

96
00:06:54,560 --> 00:07:00,610
way down to there and all the way up to there so

97
00:06:58,599 --> 00:07:02,479
that looks like about

98
00:07:02,479 --> 00:07:06,960
oh four 4 in 5 in of height adjust so

99
00:07:05,560 --> 00:07:14,879
thank you for checking out our unboxing of the 970 series 9 monitor from Samsung

100
00:07:10,800 --> 00:07:19,599
once again key talking points 2560 x40

101
00:07:14,879 --> 00:07:24,560
PLS display with one seamless glass

102
00:07:19,599 --> 00:07:24,560
front that I think is beautiful
