Samsung launches Smart Monitor 970 series

28 Sep 2012

Samsung Electronics South Africa has launched its premium LED Series 9 Smart Monitor, featuring unrivalled picture quality and minimalist design.

"Samsung's new Series 9 Monitor won an Innovation Award at CES 2012 this January. We are sure that with the launch of this product globally, we will see Samsung cement its premium monitor brand image and become a global number one monitor brand for six consecutive years," says Mike van Lier, business leader for IT solutions at Samsung South Africa.

Samsung's Series 9 monitor targets professional graphic designers, photographers as well as general consumers who want to have a professional-level monitor.

Certificate of colour calibration

With advanced technologies, such as natural colour expert for colour calibration, Samsung drives the performance of its panel to the fullest to deliver accurate colours, allowing consumers to enjoy true-to-life, natural colours.
Additionally, at the final production stage, each unit undergoes a thorough colour calibration process unit by unit, and a certificate of colour calibration is provided for users to confirm the monitor's settings.

Using plane line switching panels - the highest quality panel offering wide viewing angles - the monitor secures 178 degree viewing angles both horisontally and vertically and provides 2560 x1440 quad high definition resolution, four times clearer than 720p HD resolution.

No hassle of cables

This premium monitor also offers a variety of additional features. With mobile high-definition link technology, users can watch content on a bigger screen by connecting mobile high-definition link-enabled smartphones with the monitor. Additionally, with its built-in two channel high quality stereo speakers also ensure users enjoy a richer sound.

Since input ports used for connecting a PC or other peripherals are placed under the stand, users can keep their desk tidy without a hassle of cables. Its tall, aluminium stand is inspired by high-rise skyscrapers, giving both structural balance and sophisticated beauty.

"Samsung's Series 9 monitors are the highest-end, premium monitor, both in picture quality and design and we believe that it certainly is a market differentiator when it comes to the premium monitor space," concludes Van Lier.
