A:AnswerM8C is the latest model (2023) and has a anti-glare not a matte screen. And also has an HDMI and USBC ports for display. M8B is the 2022 model.
A:AnswerSimple Answer Yes! This does come with a USB-C to USB-C short cord for easy connection. I use this to connect to my laptop as a second screen or monitor. Hope this helps!
A:AnswerThank you for your question! The M80C Smart Monitor does not support Google Chrome; however, you can still browse the web using the built-in internet app available after setup.
A:AnswerIt most definitely works with the mini. I personally just bought this same set up and I love it!!! I used the HDMI cord that came with my monitor to connect them.
A:AnswerThe camera works with 4 apps they give you. The microphone and camera connect to the monitor, not the PC. :(. I was able to remove the camera and plug it into my surface to see if it would work. It does but it is pretty useless as "dedicated" to the monitor. Unless you want Samsung's 4 apps. FYI: I have 7 Samsung TVs including another Smart Monitor. I would buy it for the camera agan.
A:Answer$1,200...
On a more serious note, this monitor is bigger and it's WAY less expensive.
On the other hand, the Apple monitor has better speakers, a better camera, better clarity, better colors, better everything really. But you pay for that dearly.
I ended up getting this monitor for general office work. I got an LG 4K Ultrafine for more intense graphics. It's more expensive than the Samsung, but really close to the Apple in display quality. The LG does not have speakers or a camera though. But it was $1,000 than the Apple.
FYI, we transitioned from the 27 inch, iMacs. Our business was exclusively Apple until we got Samsung and LG monitors to go with our new MacBooks.
A:AnswerI am using this with a MacBook Air, with a cable to the USB port. This even powers the MacBook from the monitor, and leaves the HDMI open for another device. It also leaves a spare USB C port on the MacBook for a hub or other devices.
