Samsung unveiled a range of productivity monitors for home and office use, with a curvature of 1000R (the curvature of a circle with a radius of 1 meter). Called the T55 series, these new monitors adapt a concept that Samsung applied to gaming monitors earlier this year. They all have a refresh rate of 75 Hz and support AMD FreeSync. While higher refresh rates are sought after by gamers, they are not required for common office applications. Other features include a response time of 4ms, a maximum brightness of 250nits, a typical contrast ratio of 3,000:1 and a resolution of 1920x1080. The C24T55, C27T55 and C32T55 monitors are sized at 24, 27 and 32 inches respectively. Availability and pricing for T55 series monitors have yet to be announced.
