Samsung unveils new 27- and 31.5-inch monitors at CES, offering curved screens with a cord and cable hiding stand design.

This week’s 2017 Consumer Electronics Show has barely opened its doors and we’re already getting glimpses of all the technological offerings slated to be on display in Las Vegas, including Samsung’s new selection of Quantum Dot curved monitors.

Available in 27- and 31.5-inch variations, the CH711 Quantum Dot curved monitor doesn’t offer the near-invisible pixels 5K resolution of LG’s most recent displays, but the 2,560 x 1,440 WQHD resolution provides a 125% sRGB color coverage with 178-degree viewing angle in a 21:9 aspect ratio (for more technical explanation about what the marketing talk of Quantum Dots actually represent, we recommend this Wired piece). Samsung says these monitors are intended for the needs of both gamers and professionals, but we can also imagine the new design being received positively as an alternative to the new monitor Apple never delivered ?  with a clean, white chassis aesthetically pleasing from nearly any angle, and a cord and cable hiding neck/stand to please the obsessively organized.
