Samsung’s multi-use 32-inch FHD smart monitor gets dramatic discount before Black Friday
Table of Contents
Not everyone needs a 1440p several-hundred-Hz gaming monitor. Samsung knows, and the 32-inch M5 (M50F) is designed to offer a solution to users wanting a solid monitor, but with a few tricks up its sleeve. As such, this is a capable screen for gamers, but with added Smart and streaming features to boot.
Yes, the M5 is a decently sized monitor where 60Hz does the job. Yet it also allows you to watch HDR10 content when you’re not, say, engaging with Samsung’s Gaming Hub. Importantly, the M50F is a $270 device, but is now discounted to a more palatable $200. That’s a $70 (26%) saving, which isn’t to be sniffed at.

Why we like the 32-inch M5 Smart monitor
Very viewable screen
Whether you’re gaming or watching content, a 32-inch screen offers a good viewable area between the more usual gaming monitor (27-inch) and TV (43-inch+) sizes. It should be good for Full HD gaming and when watching shows. The M5 also includes vision accessibility tools.
Gaming Hub
You can connect the M5 to a console or PC via HDMI for gaming, but the monitor also includes access to the Samsung Gaming Hub. This feature provides access to Samsung’s cloud gaming service, including access to Nvidia’s GeForce Now and Xbox Cloud Gaming services. So you’ll have plenty of variety of potential titles to choose.
Good selection of specs
The M5 is a viable option for a communal space, bedroom, or home office. Certified for Windows 11, the monitor is flicker-free, supports HDR 10 content, and utilizes Adaptive Sound for better audio. Essentially, if you need a smart monitor that can also support casual gaming up to a smooth 60fps, then this is a decent choice.
