Samsung Electronics has announced the addition of two new smart all-in-one monitors in its growing collection of multipurpose, Tizen-powered smart monitors. The smart devices are the 43-inch 4K Smart Monitor M7 and the 24-inch 1080p Smart Monitor M5.
The range of smart monitors offers an
array of features and functionality that prove their versatility. The launch of
these two new models is coming after the unveiling last year of the smart
monitors in 27-inch and 32-inch sizes. The new additions seem to be a strategic
move by Samsung to fill the lower and upper end of sizes of the smart monitor.
This would cater to a broader array of customer choices and preferences.
Samsung said the 24-inch model focuses on customers searching for a good value
multi-functional monitor.
The design philosophy of the new smart
monitors remains productivity and entertainment. Both models run on Samsung’s
Tizen OS, which provides a solid basis for seamless video streaming, smart
connectivity to your Galaxy smartphone, and Voice Assistant support like the
Google Assistant, Bixby, and Alexa. The impressive built-in speakers on the
smart monitors provide a solid sound experience for users. With the Dex app,
you can transform the smart monitor into a huge desktop for your smartphone.
There is the likelihood that the M7 will
have HDR10 capability in addition to its solar-powered remote control module.
The M7 model also features slim bezels and a USB Type C port. There is no pricing information for the two
models at this time. However, the two mid-size models unveiled last year cost
between US$ 230 and US$ 400. We would expect the two smart monitors to have a wider
price range due partly to the innovations, coupled with their being opposite
ends of a spectrum.
