Back in June of this year, Samsung launched the ViewFinity S8 (model S80PB) monitors targeted at creative professionals. The monitor is available in 32-inch and 27-inch sizes and features 4K resolution, 98 percent of DCI-P3, 60 Hz refresh rates, PANTONE validation, and USB Type-C connectivity with 90 W charging via USB Power Delivery.

Now, Samsung has launched the new ViewFinity S8UT model, which comes with all the features of the S80PB model with the addition of a couple of Thunderbolt 4. To be exact, the monitor has a resolution of 3,840 x 2,160 pixels with a 60 Hz refresh rate, 5 ms response times, and a 1,000:1 contrast ratio.

The ViewFinity S8UT adds Thunderbolt 4 connectivity to the ViewFinity S8 series, which still has 90 W of fast charging capability and an additional connector that can supply 15 W to a connected device. Specifically, the first can power a laptop as well as Thunderbolt add-ons like a second 4K monitor, while the second Thunderbolt port can be used for mouse, keyboards, or charging a cellphone.

Additionally, the ViewFinity S8UT has three USB 3.0 Type-A ports, Ethernet, and an HDMI port. Along with dual speakers, a height- and pivot-adjustable stand is also offered by Samsung. Although Samsung has not yet disclosed pricing information, we anticipate it to be comparable to the ViewFinity S80PB, which sells for €499 in the Eurozone.
