Remote control specifications vary by country and region. Keyboard and mouse control compatibility varies by app. Access to the full range of smart features, such as network-based services, applications (including games and streaming services), and smart home functionality requires a Samsung account. Without logging in, functionality is limited to external devices, e.g. via HDMI. ²Each device must be registered with a single Samsung account and connected to the same Wi-Fi network.

When I read the description on this Smart Monitor, I had a little trouble conceptualizing exactly what this monitor brings to the table. Why can't the PC just provide streaming content? Well, it can. What sets this apart is in my dual-display setup.
I can keep one monitor dedicated to the PC, and use this Smart Monitor to switch between use as an extended display or as a dedicated, wifi-enabled OTT streaming device. Now I can watch whatever I want in my office without slowing down my PC! Nice. The QLED picture is top-notch. There are a lot of options to select to fine-tune the picture to your particular tastes. Watching UHD is a pleasure, even with such a small 32-inch screen. The sound is, well, meh. It's adequate. Very clean but it sounds like display speakers. It's hard to get great sound from small speakers. The remote is solar-powered, which is nice. I probably should have read the tutorial on how to use the remote before diving in. It took a minute or two to realize that the volume button, for example, is pushed up for louder, pushed down for softer, and push IN for mute. Also, finding menu items takes a little getting used to. But it's all there - just need to poke around a bit to find everything. I didn’t use the included stand as I wanted a stacked setup in my office. The VESA mounts worked perfectly so no drama there. There is no DisplayPort 1.4. The only external input options are HDMI or USB-C. Not a problem if you have that flexibility. My Bluetooth headphones connected without a hitch. I can retreat to my office to watch a football game and not disturb my wife. Unless, of course, my team does something really good or really bad. Integration with SmartThings was seamless. Practically did it by itself. I don’t use SmartThings that much, but it is handy to remotely control the monitor, like turning it off if I’m going to be gone for a while. Overall, a great feature-packed smart monitor to enhance your viewing options. Just received & connected everything up to replace an LG 4k monitor.
The Samsung is larger and easier on the eyes, but there's a pretty serious drawback: the supplied stand does not allow the monitor height nor viewing angle adjustments, which is a serious drawback to its use as a monitor. On my desk, which is height adjusted so my keyboard is at a comfortable position (no separate keyboard tray), I find that I'm looking down a bit -- neutral straight ahead viewing would have me looking at a spot maybe 1/10th or less of the height from the top of the screen. My primary use for this is as a monitor, and I used to use the LG's analog audio out port to drive some external speakers, including a subwoofer. Now my audio is a little less nice, by default, though I can have my computers drive a USB audio dongle that feeds my pre-existing audio system. I haven't tried this, and am a little worried about picture/audio sync. I do also have a Chromecast attached to the second HDMI input and intend to use that for my 4k streaming needs (Chrome on the computer won't stream 4k content), rather than the built-in Tizen-based stuff. The Chromecast was already set up, and I don't see a need to trust yet another IoT device.
