Samsung Electronics has announced a global extension to its ViewFinity monitor range with the 27-inch ViewFinity S9 (S90PC model).
This launch follows the debut of the ViewFinity S8 (S80PB model) in June 2022, equipped with Ultra High Definition (UHD) resolution. The ViewFinity S9 features a 27-inch 5K (5,120 x 2,880) resolution screen that offers over 50% more workspace than other UHD monitors. This larger workspace allows professionals to work on high-resolution content without zooming in, maintaining visibility of editing tools on the screen.
Boasting a 99% DCI-P31 and 218 PPI (pixels per inch), the ViewFinity S9 provides crisp details and vibrant colors, supporting professionals dependent on visual accuracy. Moreover, its typical brightness of 600 cd/m² adapts to nearly any lighting environment. Samsung's calibration technology ensures accurate color, with factory calibration guaranteeing a Delta E <2 accuracy out of the box.
Industry-first Smart Calibration, controlled via smartphones, allows users to adjust the ViewFinity S9's screen settings without complicated, expensive calibration equipment. With the SmartThings app, users can adjust white balance and gamma settings in basic mode, or access complete control of color temperature, luminance, color space, and gamma settings in professional mode. Following calibration, a detailed report of adjustments and Delta E color accuracy is available to users.
The ViewFinity S9 also incorporates TUV-certified Intelligent Eye Care features to minimize eye strain during prolonged usage. The matte display reduces light reflection and glare, limiting distractions during work.
The ViewFinity S9 is compatible with both Mac and Windows PCs, supporting Thunderbolt 4 and mini DisplayPort inputs alongside USB-C. Thunderbolt 4 allows for device charging with up to 90 W of power and reliable data transfer at speeds up to 40 Gbps. The monitor includes a built-in 4K SlimFit camera that connects via pogo pin, delivering high-resolution quality for video calls on applications such as Google Meet. The camera adjusts to the monitor's angle and maintains the user in shot even if their position changes.
The metal design and ergonomic features of the ViewFinity S9 cater to diverse workspaces. The height-adjustable stand matches the user's eye level, the screen tilts to accommodate viewing angles, and in Pivot mode, the screen rotates 90 degrees for more comfortable document reading. VESA mount compatibility allows for a clutter-free desk setup.
Embedded Smart TV apps facilitate leisure viewing after work, granting instant access to popular streaming applications without the need for a separate PC. Additional features like built-in speakers with Adaptive Sound+ and a remote control round off the monitor's functionalities.
