One of Samsung’s latest monitors is a 27-inch Full-HD monitor that has a curved shape screen that can improve viewing experience and reduce eye fatigue. The new Samsung 27-inch Curved Monitor S27D590CS is also built with dual surround speakers, has six color modes for optimized contrast and brightness and can be setup as multiple monitors to create one large curved panel. Check out the rest of its features, specifications, price and where to buy one.
Samsung 27-Inch Curved Monitor S27D590CS Features
Curved Screen Reduces Eye Fatigue
Designed to mirror the curvature of your eye, the S27D590CS’s shape reduces viewing stress by preserving a consistent distance between your eye and the screen. The curve also delivers a more true to life image than a flat monitor and makes the screen appear bigger than its 27-inch diagonal.
Built-In Dual Stereo Speakers
The S27D590CS has dual 5-watt, two-channel stereo speakers that deliver rich surround sound. Because the speakers are built into the screen, you don’t have to worry about connecting outside speakers or cluttering your work surface.
Connect Multiple Monitors
Samsung’s Picture-by-Picture technology lets you double or triple your screen area by connecting multiple monitors to enhance multitasking capabilities or create a more immersive experience (graphics card required).
Pre-Set Viewing Modes for Games, Movies, and Sports
With MagicBright color modes, the S27D590CS automatically optimizes brightness and contrast to best display your content. Six pre-programmed modes, including Game Mode, enable you to switch settings for viewing everything from tiny text to the most intricate details of fast-paced games.
Functional, Sleek Design
The 20-degree screen tilt lets you reduce glare regardless of where you’re sitting. The curved, brushed aluminum base and narrow bezel take up minimal space, creating a sleek look and reducing clutter.

As of today, I haven’t found any proper review videos of the S27D590CS except for videos when it was first revealed during CES 2014. Samsung also released an ad but the ad was a joke. So just watch the clips from CES 2014 below instead.
