Just got one of these yesterday. You can pull the “neck” of the camera up from the square base that allows it to look down a lot further. It’s kind of hard to pull up and it feels like you might break it, but it does extend enough to get a much better downward facing angle.

Im in love with it

In a lot of KZread reviews on Samsung M8 smart TV monitor, no one yet mention to lower the monitor to the lowest height to use the webcam at eye level.

you definitely can lower it - i showed how to briefly in my video! however depending on the height of your table, the lowest height setting of my webcam is still quite high unfortunately :( this probably won’t be much of an issue if you have a standing desk tho

Great review thanks :)

Great video, thank you 😊 I've been kind of interested in samsung monitors when I get my own place.

Bought the green one on sale for $349 on Amazon, so far I love it! Was able to hook my 2020 MacBook pro seamlessly through the USB-c to USB-c cable.

Thanks!

Can't wait!🥰

thank you for the informative video! How do you connect the webcam of the monitor when your mcbook is closed and connected? I can't access to mine!

Can you tell us about your external speakers? I have this monitor connected via the USB-C to C cable that came with the monitor. The display, camera, and microphone are all working well. But... the audio is terrible. It's garbled and frequently has an echo. I've ordered a new USBC4 USB-C to C cable. Hoping this fixes the garble/echo. But I'd also like to attach external speakers for better sound quality overall.

How are your external speakers connected? I'm having an issue: my external speakers (connected USB) work fine in gaming and media modes but just can't figure out why they won't work in workspace. They show up in settings and when the settings menu is open the sound is played through the external speakers but once I close the menu, it goes back to the internal monitor speakers. very confusing...

I looove it! 💕💕 Definitely gonna start setting money aside to save for it

Hi I know this is a bit late but when you have your laptop plugged in what’s the maximum hz you can get displayed? I know this monitor has 60hz overall but I’ve heard it goes down significantly when you’re plugging in a second device.

I just bought this monitor for Christmas based on your review. I am planning on copying your monitor settings that you had to produce the MacBook display look. Are the settings that you displayed the appropriate ones to accomplish this?

it depends on what you are using it for really are you just using it as a smart TV like to watch videos, listen to music etc.? it has an internet browser for browsing but it would be hard to use imo; if you need it for video editing, making documents etc you definitely need more than just a monitor - think of this as just a normal computer monitor but ~slightly elevated~
