Samsung today has begun selling its first 5K monitor, the ViewFinity S9, available directly through Samsung’s website and at participating retailers. Samsung officially announced the ViewFinity S9 monitor at CES 2023 back in January. It’s a new premium monitor with a sleek design that should easily fit into any setup.
Now this isn’t a gaming monitor so it’s not what we’d suggest if you’re looking for something of that nature. But it is going to be perfect for home offices, a work display, or even schools. It’s a 27-inch panel so it’s not super large. It also boasts high color accuracy with DCI-P3 99% color gamut. Which means it should be nice for photo editing, video editing, digital art and the like. To top that off it’s Pantone Validated, with Samsung saying it has “authentic reproduction of more than 2,000 Pantone colors and 100 Pantone SkinTone shades on screen.” It can also easily be turned vertical if you need it to.
The Samsung ViewFinity S9 is available for $1,599.99
Just because this isn’t a gaming monitor and because it’s smaller, doesn’t mean it’s inexpensive. In fact, being a 5K display, and Samsung’s first one at that, was reason enough to suspect this would have a high price tag.
The interesting thing is that while this isn’t really a gaming monitor, it can still be used for some light or casual gaming. It boasts a 60Hz refresh rate. And that’s not bad for many games. It also comes with Samsung Gaming Hub pre-installed. And you can use that to connect to services like Xbox Game Pass, GeForce NOW and more for playing games in the cloud.
The monitor will support both Windows and Mac and comes with some neat extras. Like the modular slim 4K webcam that can be attached and detached. There’s also a remote for menu and setting management. Additionally, it has a slim metal build. It just might be the perfect display for digital artists and photo editors.
