Samsung Electronics has globally launched its lineup of high-resolution monitors for this year with a view to making the most of the work from home norms in place in many countries due to the Covid-19 pandemic.  

The company has released 12 different monitors across three series — the S8, S7 and S6 — with all models offering more than 1 billion colors, a 178-degree wide viewing angle and enhanced High Dynamic Range 10 technology. Additionally, all monitors are ‘Intelligent Eye Care’ certified from TÜV Rheinland, the first in the industry to receive this recognition.

The monitors optimise picture quality by automatically adjusting brightness and color temperature in response to room conditions.
