Samsung Electronics unveiled its newest curved monitors and demonstrated the productivity benefits of its professional-geared displays during its Samsung European Forum.
With the release of its CF591 and CF390 monitors, Samsung continues to elevate its pioneering curved display design to offer even greater visibility and user comfort. These best-in-class 1800R curvature monitors match the natural shape of the human eye, providing a more natural viewing experience.
Both the CF591 and CF390 monitors are equipped with a host of features that further reduce visual fatigue and accommodate long-term business and consumer use. Each display leverages Samsung’s flicker-free and Eye Saver technologies to maintain presentation consistency and reduce strain on users’ eyes. Embedded AMD FreeSync™ Technology over HDMI® functionality synchronizes screen refresh rates with users’ AMD graphics cards to reduce input latency, stutter and lag during gaming and interactive content viewing. Additionally, the CF591 and CF390 displays offer a wide 178-degree viewing angle, enabling users to enjoy a clear and in-depth picture from any location.
