These two are the first batch of smart monitors in Samsung's lineup. Both come with Tizen OS that is popular in smart TVs. This allows the monitors to connect to the web via WiFi without a PC or console. It also loads popular streaming apps like Netflix and YouTube. Tizen OS also comes with support and remote access to Microsoft Office 360 cloud service, Bixby voice recognition, Samsung DeX, and Apple AirPlay 2.

The M7 model is a 32-inch 4K UHD monitor while the M5 model comes in either 27-inch or 32-inch variants with 1080p FHD resolution. There's a USB-C port for the M7 for its 65W power brick to connect to and can even work as a pass-through for data transfers at 10 Gbps speeds. It also has USB 2.0 and Bluetooth 4.2. For audio, both will feature built-in 2-channel 5W speakers.

Both also have a feature called Adaptive Picture to optimize the image projected on the screen to be perfectly viewable under any lighting and viewing environment. As the name implies, the monitors will adapt the brightness and color temperature according to the lighting condition in the room. Lastly, both come with dedicated remote control.
