27" Samsung ViewFinity S8 4K IPS Monitor
$419.99 $169.99 at Best Buy
The Samsung ViewFinity S8 is a 27-inch monitor with a true 4K (3840 x 2160) resolution, resulting in a sharp 163 ppi. Only 27-inch 5K models (like Apple's, priced at $1600) offer greater clarity. Imagine a dual-monitor setup with two of these—nearly matching the screen real estate of a Samsung Neo G9 57" double 4K UHD monitor, but at a fraction of the cost! This exceptional sharpness, combined with the relatively smaller screen size, is less crucial for gaming (especially considering the need for a powerful GPU), but ideal for pixel-perfect work and text-heavy applications.
Its features are geared towards productivity. The IPS panel provides wide viewing angles and accurate 99% sRGB color space. Connectivity includes HDMI and DisplayPort, along with USB Type-A and Type-B ports. The 60Hz refresh rate is perfectly suitable given its productivity focus.
