Correction you said not. Think you meant to leave that out

A point of clarification. The optimal view distance from samsung's marketing is "AT LEAST" 80cm or 31.5" , not "AT" 80cm. And they are probably being kind to space constraints of people's setups there. The curve is actually 1000R which means a 1000mm radius of the curve. That means to be equidistant from all points on the screen surface, you'd have to sit viewing it from 1000mm ~ 39.5" away. The "focal point" if the screen was a lens. That equates to about 61 PPD (pixels per degree, a measure of the perceived pixel density at distance). If you view this screen from 80cm / 31.5" away you'd only be getting 55 PPD (which is poor, 60PPD is a minimum for aggressive AA and heavily massaged text sub-sampling to start to be adequate imo), and you wouldn't be equidistant from the screen surface anymore, driving the sides of the screen more into your periphery. When you sit closer you are driving the perceived pixel density down and doing what is linked in the pictures below. The solid blue is the correct 1000mm distance for the curved screen's radius. The light blue is the human viewing angle when sitting too close. It gets pushed past the curved screen. i.imgur.com/0UhdIIr.jpg The light blue is the human viewing angle when sitting even nearer than the previous example. It pushes even more grossly past the curved screen and even past the flat screen that is farther behind it. i.imgur.com/q03mqmG.jpg Personally at 4k and 1000r (1000mm ~ 39.5") I would have preffered this at 42" size for 70 - 80 PPD. 42" bendable 4k 900R: "fixed" focal point = 35.4" view distance (900mm) = 70PPD 1000R: "fixed" focal point = 39.4" view distance (1000mm) = 77PPD 55" 4k 1000R: fixed focal point = 39.4" view distance (1000mm) = ~ 61 PPD 1000R: fixed focal point, when "zooming" the screen perspective wise by setting your sitting position past the actual 39.4" focal point of the curve and instead sitting at 80mm 31.5" view distance = ~ 55.3 PPD Sitting closer would be even worse PPD and putting more of the screen outside of your viewing angle.

I have no problem with keeping my desk farther away from the screen around 3.5 feet screen surface to eyeballs. With a desk on caster wheels I can just roll the desk back to the screen when not in use.

@Phobos&Deimos How about we actually calculate how many it would take to make a full circle, since this is a 1000R display (meaning if a circle was made, it would have a radius of 1000 mm, or 1 m) the circumference of that circle (2πr) would be about 6.283 m, looking up the dimensions of the ark, it seems that it's 114.76 cm wide, (or 1.1476 m wide) dividing the circumference by the width would get us a result of 5.47, so we would need about 5 and a half ark monitors horizontally to fully complete a circle, this got me interested in to seeing how many in vertical mode would be required to complete it, the monitor's height is 537.2 cm, doing the same thing we've done before would yield us a result of about 11.7, all of this, however, depends on wether or not the measurements factor in the bezels, so it's pretty fair to assume that it would require 6 arks horizontally, or 12 arks vertically to complete a circle.

They probably use a simple multiplexer to get those 4 high spec HDMI inputs to the TV. If they had to do actual image processing on these inputs to, say, composite them together on one big screen it'd be obscenely expensive. Especially at that refresh rate and resolution. And then it'd probably add a ton of latency, too. And it's such a niche use case that it just won't pay off, especially with a monitor like this that's still more or less "reasonably" priced. That's also why there's no DP - you basically only have a single HDMI 2.1 input with a selector before that. Definitely not coming in a software update, lol.

Must be a tv limitation. I've got a 43" Samsung 32:10 ultra wide and I am able to do PIP just fine with all the display inputs, so 1x hdmi, 1x display port and 2x USB C. I use it a lot for having my ps5 and pc on the screen at the same time, pc over DP and ps5 over hdmi. I've also used it for having two separate pc screens rather than one giant one, which is where this monitor is going to be missing a trick. If you could hook two hdmi cables up and have them both appear, you could have two vertical 27" monitors stacked from a single pc which would be really useful. In its current state, it is just short of being perfect and just needs to address that problem and I also would have loved to see USB C thunderbolt ports on the one box for hot-desking. Its weird because this is so geared towards pc use but the features are all restricted by TV things. The one box having all hdmi only for example.

I would imagine depending on the hardware of their input unit they may need to swap out the box to allow for multiple simultaneous HDMI inputs at once.

I've been reading up on this ever since I found out my work 2015 MacBook Pro would only output at 1080p over HDMI vs 4K over DisplayPort or USB-C. Basically, unlike HDMI vs. DVI, which use the same signaling protocol (and can thus be mapped using passive adapters or, if you're desperate, literal breakout boards), DP goes a different way and thus requires an active adapter to convert a DP signal to HDMI. But! Evidently the "DP++" protocol is extremely common, where, if you connect your USB-C (DP-alt mode) cable into a *passive* adapter, the video card will realize what's going on and transmit an HDMI/DVI-friendly TMDS signal instead, which is what my Mac was doing when it refused to put out a 1440p signal when connected to my monitor's HDMI port. If I used an active adapter instead, it would see a DP sink connected and send over a higher-res signal, though I'm guessing that active adapter is going to introduce some lag in addition to drawing some power. Relating to this display, HDMI input only means that a large class of devices are going to face a choice of either getting limited to a low resolution or having to live with the lag introduced by the active adapter.

@@GSBarlev the minority of devices will have HDMI versions below 1.4 so no 4k but HDMI 1.4 will do 4k 30hz You just need a device with DP 1.4 and that SHOULD but not always mean you get HDMI 1.4 or 2.0 through a passive DP to HDMI cable But you cannot to my knowledge get HDMI 2.1 out of a DP port at least not until DP 2.0 is added to devices So in your case you have HDMI 1.3 or lower and your DP port has not been fitted correctly to allow HDMI 1.4 so im going to assume DP 1.3 which did not have a HDMI 1.4 passive mode But at £3500 people wont be using devices prior to HDMI 2.0 or newer generation’s of DP1.4 An active adapter is required from HDMI to DP but should not be required from DP to HDMI unless using a sucky device that only has HDMI 1.3 or older passive mode
