Samsung’s 32-inch smart monitor M8 (M80D, updated 2024) can function not only as a monitor with a webcam, but also as a smart TV, with built-in speakers and support for cloud gaming and streaming platforms. Normally $700, it’s down to an all-time low of nearly $400 on Amazon, effectively saving you $300 (43%).

The refreshed Smart Monitor M8 has the same features as past models, but does require a computer or console, including video calling via a detachable webcam and streaming content from providers like Netflix and Prime Video. And now you can do even more. There are also tools that allow you to quickly send images and text to your monitor from other Samsung devices, such as Galaxy smartphones and Book laptops. It also integrates with Galaxy Buds to provide a “surround sound-like experience” with minimal delay.
It offers UHD (3,840 x 2,160) resolution up to 60Hz and HDR10+. With the VA panel, it’s pretty bright at 400 nits, has a 4ms response time, and displays up to 1 billion colors with 99% sRGB coverage. In terms of inputs, it has USB-C and Micro HDMI 2.0 inputs, as well as a USB-C charging interface. It also features a removable SlimFit Cam for video calls, perfect for work or light content creation.
However, that’s only half the story. This is a WiFi-enabled smart TV that supports Netflix, Amazon Prime Video, Disney+, Apple TV, and cloud gaming platforms. It has dual 5W speakers and a built-in home hub that can be used to control SmartThings-enabled IoT devices like lights and thermostats. It also has built-in support for Microsoft 365, so you can edit documents and browse the web without being connected to a computer.
Other features include a height-adjustable stand to change the angle and position, and a game bar for easy switching between cloud services. Normally sold for $700, the $400 sale price is an especially good deal. Therefore, we recommend acting quickly while supplies last.
