Samsung Unveils Thunderbolt 3 QLED Curved Monitor at CES 2018
At CES 2018, Samsung Electronics will expand the connectivity and performance capabilities of its signature curved display line-up with the debut of its new CJ791 monitor, featuring Intel's Thunderbolt 3 connectivity.
Through a single Thunderbolt 3 cable, CJ791 users can link and dock their monitor and laptop without extensive wiring. The Thunderbolt 3 connection provides processing speed of up to 40 Gigabits per second (Gbps) - a rate nearly four times faster than USB alternatives - allowing users to enjoy connectivity across a full ecosystem of docks, displays and peripheral devices including Macs, USB type-C laptops, and other desktop accessories like storage drives or external graphics cards. The Thunderbolt 3 interface also enables the CJ791 to provide up to 85 watts (W) of laptop charging power.
A 21:9 aspect ratio provides more screen real estate for multitasking, while a complementary 3440x1440 ultra-wide QHD resolution elevates content and imagery with nearly 2.5 times the pixel density of full HD alternatives.
Along with the wire-reducing Thunderbolt 3 connectivity, the CJ791's slim-depth and narrow-bezel design accommodates multi-display setups without sacrificing content consistency or visual appearance. The display's height-adjustable stand and tilt functionality also empower users to customize positioning and work within their most comfortable viewing parameters.
The display's QLED presentation technology precisely reflects colors across a 125 percent sRGB spectrum. It has the industry's sharpest 1,500R curvature and an ultra-wide 178-degree viewing angle.
Integrated gamer-friendly features also give users an extra edge on their adversaries with Game Mode, which contains a dynamic gamma setting that intuitively adjusts color and contrast of each individual scene to produce a true-to-life environment. The CJ791's four milliseconds (ms) response time also ensures smooth transitions between scenes.
