Hey Chaps - tempted to buy an M8? P.S if you're wondering why some shots of the stand are blurry, it's because I'm an idiot 😅 in some shots I hadn't assembled it correctly, so there was a tiny gap. It was my mistake

@@hrithikaakash difference between M5 and M7 is the resolution. M7 is 4k and M5 is 1080p. M8 and M7 have only slight differences. Major change is the body is thinner (have colours) and the webcam.

I do think this is where future family computers are going to. Monitors that have alot of ways to connect to but also lower end processes on it. For any major processing task you can simply use cloud processing. One feature I think is missing is it being touch screen. Touch screen would allow the screen to be a kitchen/family room hub. (Kind of like alexa shows)

Hi! I got the M7 (which your review really helped me) and have to say, as a computer monitor and casual movie/show watching, it is great!!! it's ok with consoles on gaming mode. two things i just wished this m8 had were one more input (so i could use three sources without using a switcher) and an output for audio (other than ONLY bluetooth). 120hz is a dream so i dont expect that on this monitor, but if it had the two features I mentioned above, i would totally be more willing to buy it. now, if it did support higher refresh rates on top of those two things...it would be perfect. also, after using a "monitor" with a remote, I cant go back.

Can we screen record like our reaction to a KZfaq Video in a split screen view covering YT window on the left side & the webcam view on the right side ? Awesome & Thanks :)

Well, the inevitable happened... And I had to work from home. After putting it off - because I don't have a separate office space, I bade goodbye to my 40 inch TV in my room, and replaced it with a proper desk and the Samsung M7 Smart Monitor because they sold it as the best of both a TV and a monitor. Its Samsung display - so even the worst Samsung 4K will beat out majority of players at this price point. Their display technology can't be beat. And so, I was genuinely blown away by how perfect this was to replace my old set up. I now have a great screen to fit 4 windows on the 4K display. And have a decent display for streaming content! I got the M7 last year and while I wish I had the M8, no doubt when it's due for an upgrade I'll be getting another Smart Monitor!

It’s cool. I already have the M7 and it’s pretty much the same. Only difference is the webcam and the white + colour aesthetics. I was lucky enuff to pick up the M7 fairly cheap. If this was 43inch I would buy the M8. As the monitor is great. I would’ve thought to have a 3.5mm jack to connect some desktop speakers.

Hello, very good video. One question, I bought the Samsung M8 and a Mac Mini M2, and I don't really know which cable to use to connect it. I have read that if you do not connect it via USB-C it does not detect the camera, but in that case, which USB-C cable do I use, the one that comes with the monitor itself? And which of the two USB-C that the monitor has should I use? Because there is one that charges, and if I connected it to a laptop I would understand it, it would charge it, but if I connect it to a Mac Mini it doesn't need to be charged, wouldn't that be bad? Thank you so much.

Would there be any point for me to get the M8 considering the price difference between the M7 (2022) and this M8? Planning to use it as a monitor for my MacBook as well as just causal entertainment.

When you wake up the Mac Studio with touching keyboard, does M8 monitor wake up instantly or with lag. I did not get the Mac Studio display and will appreciate knowing how good or not this M8 is as an alternative. Thanks in advance. Also if you can compare M8 with Apple Studio display in another video, many people like me will watch it keenly.

Problem is, the Studio Display only comes in 27 inches and XDR at 5000 dollars plus is above my means. Here comes this 32 inch Samsung, and yeah, its exactly everything that Apple won't give us for displays.
