$899 NZD Samsung 4k Monitor

[meringu]

So this incredibly cheap 4k monitor just apeared on Playtech. The only other 4k monitor on the site is the Asus one for four thousand dollars (ironically 4k for $4k). The release date for the Samsung is the 6th of may. I was waiting for an IPS 4K monitor... but this is as cheap as the IPS 1440x2560 monitors. I would like to hear what you guys think. I am seriously considering it. Here is the Samsung website (although the product numbers differ slightly)

That TN panel. I also wonder if it will be 30Hz, I couldn't find anything on it.

But that price

Where are the rules? It says 60hz at 4k on a German website I found and Google translated.

Couldn't see 'no links' to manufatures/retailer websites here: http://linustechtips.com/main/topic/95599-linus-tech-tips-forum-code-of-conduct/

I was going to preorder on on ComputerLounge (also $899) however it turns out I just missed their stocktake 8% off everything coupon

 

They do have 8% off everything coupons quite often so hopefully I'll preorder one once another coupon pops up.

pre ordered this on amazon earlier this week. as soon as I pull it out of the box I will write a review for you guys <3

 

 

it is also worth noting that this panel is capable of 1 billion colors without dithering (from what Ive read) making it a true 10 bit tn panel.

Pre-ordered one from Computerlounge.

 

Yes it maybe a TN panel, but I don't really care for an IPS panel. I am not a professional, I don't rely on accurate colours, the "Viewing angle" is just fine. I look at my monitor dead on anyway. 

 

The screen real estate is what I'm looking for. Plus if I decide to run some games, TN panels have a greater response time.
