Pros and cons

According to our monitor expert

You can edit photos and videos with lifelike colors thanks to the 4K resolution amd DisplayHDR 400 support.
You can connect and charge an external device via the Thunderbolt 4 ports with 90W power.
Via the PBP or PIP split screen modes, you can work with 2 computers on the same screen at the same time to multitask even more effectively.
There are no DisplayPort connectors on this monitor to connect your computer.

Description

Combine productivity with working comfortably in razor-sharp resolution on the Samsung ViewFinity S8 27-inch 4K USB-C monitor. The 4K resolution is 2 times sharper than QHD and 4 times sharper than Full HD, so even the tiniest details are displayed clearly. When you're editing photos and videos, you can zoom into the details with the same sharpness. You can make the most accurate edits that way, without losing track of them. Do a lot of office work? The 4K resolution also offers an extra advantage for you. Because you have more pixels to work with, you have more screen space to open your windows and programs on. You can also easily organize your desk via the 2 Thunderbolt 4 ports. These ports transmit image signals, transfer data, and charge your device with 90W power. That way, your laptop battery is always fully charged when you leave your home or office. Thunderbolt 4 also makes daisy chaining possible. Connect a second monitor right to your first monitor and enlarge your screen space with just 1 cable. You can also retain the 4K resolution on the other Thunderbolt 4 monitor if it supports 4K. Want to watch a movie after work? The monitor also supports DisplayHDR 400 in addition to 4K resolution. That way, all the colors and images look bright and sharp. You can also tilt, turn, and adjust the monitor in height to create an ergonomic sitting position. This prevents neck and back problems, and you can work comfortably. Want to work even more effectively? Connect 2 devices at the same time and work with the PBP or PIP split screen with 2 sources at once. Do this when you have a laptop for your editing software and your photo library on your desktop, for example.

A rare miss from Samsung

Good build quality
Rotate in all directions
Beautiful design
Colors are not accurate

At first glance, a beautiful screen in terms of design, beautiful matte image without reflections and tiltable in any angle.

Unfortunately, the image quality is not what you would expect from a screen in this price category, with Samsung's experience. I use the screen for graphic design and video editing, but colors are either too faded or too bright / different.

The screen offers all kinds of options to tweak the brightness and colors, but none of these options deliver good image quality. The main problem is the low brightness of the screen. Even at 100%, with extra brightness set in the software of the video card, white still appears greyish. At first this seemed to be a defect, but a new screen (after the otherwise good service from Coolblue) was unfortunately no improvement.

Eventually went for a cheaper model with good reviews (HP U32 4K) and the difference is very clear.
