Considering this monitor for home music studio as well and thinking same thing about where speakers will go. One idea is to mount the monitor to your desk and raise it up enough so it sits above the speakers. I have a pair of Presonus Monitors that are only 10 inches tall so I'm thinking the monitor will only have to go slightly above them making the viewing not too high.

I currently use two 31" 4K monitors in a dual monitor display but have been thinking of one of these ultrawide monitors. One thing that seems to bother me without owning one yet as the vertical height. Having two 4K monitors currently it's like having 3840 x2 and 2160 on the height. Unfortunately there are no ultrawide monitors (to the extent of my research) that are going to provide 2160 on the vertical. How do you feel about having a shorter vertical 1440 vs 2160? You say you use for productivity. My primary productivity use would be video editing doing NLE production work in Davinci Resolve. Do you feel handicapped in any way having such a short height? Movie viewing, gaming, video editing, etc. Thanks.

@monte Weaver just purchased this monitor for productivity as well. I am using a MacBook Pro 2020 to drive this monitor and only using 1 USB-C to HDMI cable as well. But I was wondering how you got your screen to divide into 3. I have been playing with the features and can not get it to work. I am just looking for some help., Thank you in advance.

Do you have instructions on how you were able to have 3 screens that are properly focused on this monitor? I purchased this monitor but I am having trouble getting the screens to be properly sized. They look stretched out.

Great channel, many thanks. I have a similar resolution query. My 7 year old HP laptop looks a similar output spec ie 1920x1080 via HDMI. When I "spoke" to Samsung they eventually told me I would have black bars down each side, & it wouldn't fill the screen? I "can't have 2 lots of 1920"? Others told me it would stretch the image & distort so it was unreadable? Can you advise, thanks.

Not sure. It’s hard to troubleshooting virtually to be honest with you. There’s a bunch of things you can try but to list everything here just isn’t feasible. You can either schedule some time to troubleshoot or hop in the mastermind community.

Have you found a working solution for sharing your screen in Zoom Calls? With my 34'' ultra wide ich tend to just share my Laptops screen but it would be neat just share part of a giant screen like this one. Cheers!

Thanks for the video. I went from 3 monitors to this exact setup. I am wondering if you have a way to "split" this screen into 3 or if you just manually adjust each new file to the 1/3 of the screen size.

On Windows you can use a Microsoft PowerToys feature called FancyZones to define areas and snap windows to those areas. I have not found a solution for Mac yet. Magnet/Cinch do not appear to have four column layouts for window snapping.

*As much as I love Samsung as a brand, I will never give into the 1000R curvature. It's ridiculous. Samsung seems to have a hard-on for it. I am never buying any of the Odyssey monitors. 1800R is the maximum curvature I'm willing to accept. Flat will always be my preference.*

This may be incorrect as Samsung website shows this monitor at 1800R which is exactly the curve I want. Still trying to confirm before I pull the trigger.

When I purchased this monitor I was using my Acer laptop (Windows) and was able to get the full resolution with no problem. When I switched over to my mac mini (M1) model I had to get a specific HDMI cable in order to get the max resolution - amzn.to/3i35CaW - I saw another KZitem video of someone using this cable as well, otherwise I don't think I would've figured out a solution.

Hi Sir, question if use multiple machines like two different laptops, and would like to control both with one wired mouse and wired keyboard can I do it with this monitor without buying extra peripheral hub? Probably would use it split screen or switching back forth from each machine.
@MonteWeaverofficial
3 жыл бұрын
For WIRED peripherals, you can only plug it into one of your machines. So before even dealing with the monitor aspect, you would either need to use WIRELESS keyboard and mouse that allows you to switch between your multiple machines or use a hub that allows you switch between your multiple machines.
