today we're going to be doing a very very cool unboxing this is the Samsung sync master ND - 3 0 x3 they should just call it like the Goliath or something because that would be a lot easier to remember and it would also be a lot more descriptive I mean look at the size of the box this is a monitor it's so heavy the only way to get it here into this room was to take it on that cart and the only way to get it up on the table is by humiliating myself by trying to lift something that's clearly way too heavy for me there you go so what this is is it is three monitors in one I'm gonna let that sink in for a minute while I try to figure out how to get this out of the box this it actually has clamps on the box you know don't make me give you the clamps like those kinds of but I have two more on the other side here so I'm just removing those because there's actually and I could tell this when I lifted it up there's actually a box that slides over top okay so that is all packed with foam and there's some kind of documentation here which will probably need alright so that's okay this is gonna be a long unboxing just brace yourselves guys because uh a bit of an adventure I've never unboxed three monitors in one box before so it's a challenge but I like an unboxing challenge I've also never encountered clamps on a box before so here we are what's this we got limited warranty which is three years parts three years labor you can either carry it in or ship it in they will not pick it up from you which is pretty much standard we have an assembly guide and it's like wow it's actually pretty hardcore oh no it's okay because it has like 16 different languages so the English is the first line but let's actually see how how many steps there are so there's at least five seven nine oh no okay so this is only if if it's two by three Oh two by three okay hold on so we have 1 by 3 here we are so 1 by 3 pivot so that oh no we're not doing that either oh okay cool so you can put it that is the way I would use it that's legit but you can also do 1 by 3 non pivot so there's 11 steps involved in that one so you can put it together a few different ways all right last but not least we have a warranty statement thing again okay and then we have a disk which has their magic eye software magic magic Brite magic tune and and then let's keep going with the unboxing so here's a box pretty substantial got some got some heavy stuff in there so pull out the knife again break some more seals cuz that's what I do oh I missed nice Wow so you know most monitors yeah they got you know they got an included cable right yeah it's got included power cord this one comes with one two three standard computer power cables alright it comes with one two computer power cable extension cords it comes with I'll figure those out later it comes with at least one DisplayPort cable it comes okay it comes with one DisplayPort cable to single-link DVI so that is standard deviations one USB cable another USB cable so that is two USB cables a what appears to be remote alright so this is a remote for controlling something about the monitors I saw this mentioned on the Samsung site but I'm definitely gonna have to show you guys how this works outside of the unboxing but it looks like there's no on-screen display because you've got things like brightness and contrast controls right here on this little remote it connects via USB so I'm not really sure where it plugs into but we'll figure that okay and then watch these look like they'll just look like magnets I don't know if I have anything metal okay try this on no they're not magnets okay well we'll figure out what they are later then alright but we have a few of them we have one two three four five six six of them okay that's cooling down then we have whatever these are these look like some kind of a bracket don't do that with them evidently don't know what that is so these are these are brackets that up you have there we go so they go like this alright how many of those do we have we have one two three four we have four of those okay and then we have lots of screws so these are the a screws and we have B screws alright that is the hardware all note last but not least we oh we have some cable management stuff which is great because we have a lot of cables alright so that's that's the accessories you know what we'll actually just kind of well throw all this back in here and keep it out of the way while we have a look at the monitor itself okay next we have LCD panels the lower so we have three panels first one is here so let's go ahead and from the pictures I've seen of these they actually look more like like a professional LCD panel then like a monitor like based on me look at look at the industrial design on the back like these are just like hardcore so you've got what appears to be visa compatible that looks like what is it 100 by 100 on the back maybe 75 by 75 can't tell and then you've got four additional mounting holes here you've also got like sort of like random screws and stuff you've got a lot more labelled screw holes all over the back of the monitor all right I also on the back of the monitor we have some ventilation holes here at the top that's where all the electronics are inside and then at the bottom you will find all of our input options so here's one of that here actually I don't want to put this down directly on the table so I'm just going to pick that back up okay Wow so here are the interfaces at the bottom of the monitor so we have VGA please don't use that please please do not buy a $2,000 monitor setup and plug it in via VGA please okay then we have DVI DisplayPort so either of these are going to be perfectly legitimate options and so the reason they've included two DVI cables and one DisplayPort cable is because as you may or may not have guessed by now this is really intended for use with AMD's Eyefinity technology so that means you can plug in two of the monitors by a DVI and the third one will have to be DisplayPort since they're DisplayPort ready that's awesome it's perfect for eye affinity next you've got USB so this one says oh this is interesting so you've got two USBs here one of them is control out and the other one is control in I'm going to go ahead and guess that's something to do with that remote control thing that we saw this is a monitor selection button so we'll have to figure out what that does do and next we have a power input as well as a power switch and this is good because I called those extension cords but because this has a power out that's shaped like a power like a PC power cord like a I guess what would that be female like a LP C power-chord you can actually just daisy-chain one monitor over to the next one in order to make things as tidy as possible but we haven't even gotten to the part of this thing that is so cool check out how thin the bezel is on this monitor so I don't remember the specs I didn't even before I started but I did assume that I would forget them and I brought myself a handy dandy tape measure in order to measure them for you guys so the bottom bezel is let's see that's half an inch so that's Wow that's like just over a quarter of an inch so whatever whatever that unit is I think those are sixteenth so like 5/16 of an inch on the bottom on the top it looks like just a little bit bigger yeah so that looks like about six sixteenths okay so hold on you know one two three four or five that's five either way okay you know what you guys can figure this out you're really smart I'm holding the tape measure up for you you can always look it up on the Samsung website now let's look at the side bezels which are even thinner because that's the most critical one because that is where you're going to be able to reduce the amount of bezel blocking your images when you're running in AMD eyefinity so when you put these next to each other you're actually only gonna have careful around another one since we conveniently have three of these monitors packaged together like this all right so when you're running a knife in any mode you're only gonna have well how these are heavy to the metal casing the overall yeah industrial design of them is very uh it feels very beefy unlike most consumer models that's it that's all you have in terms of a bezel in between your monitors so here the last thing I want to do for the unboxing because as I can clearly see from the 11 step assembly process that ties in the user manual I'm not going to be building this on camera so the last thing I want to show you guys is the stand it comes with look at this thing is that a monitor stand or what so here put that there want to have a look at the overall finish of it because this is the kind of thing that when you buy a monitor that's 2 grand essentially you're not buying a monitor you're buying like a piece of furniture basically this has to sit on your desk it has to look absolutely gorgeous while providing the functionality that you paid for it they put a gorgeous brushed finish on the stand all right there's a little bit of dust on it but don't let that don't let that take away from the experience can you see that in the camera like the the brushed lines here try and get some different angles so you can see that it's just wonderful looks really really nice and I just want to have a quick look here at what else we have in terms of adjustments it looks like like it almost looks height adjustable but the pressure that I'm putting on it doesn't seem to be doing anything but I guess we'll figure that out later okay so I'll just so you guys can have a little quick look at the bottom it's got a bunch of rubber feet on it so no matter how hard you try it should be fairly difficult to knock this monitor over you can see the base is quite wide even when you compare it to the size of the apparatus that will be connected to it okay so it's about the width and change of one of the single monitors so it's going to come out to about here look any meat it's going to come up to about here and then up to about right here like about my arms fan tip to tip is how wide this is going to so thank you for checking out actually hold on up here let me check the box really quick and we'll go over the specs somewhat so Samsung is advertising a one hundred fifty thousand to one dynamic contrast ratio okay these are 23 inch I don't think I mentioned the resolution these are 1080p monitors each so that means that they run at what is it 57 60 I think by 1080 or if you're running them in portrait mode they're going to be whatever three times 1080 is by 1920 okay what else do we have to say about these guys before we wrap this up I think that is pretty much it I didn't want to find out if it had a height-adjustable stent but tell you what if you guys can find out for me and post it in the comments of yes it's height adjustable completely higher adjustable well not completely I mean 100 100 millimetres so 10 centimeters height adjustable and then also you can those hinges that we unboxed before in the accessory package these guys right here so what these are for is they actually attach to at each hinge they attach to the back of the monitors and they allow you to adjust up to a 30-degree angle the outer monitors for your for your peripheral vision so you're looking more straight at them instead of having it as like one big long flat panel so thank you for checking out my unboxing don't forget to subscribe to Linus tech tips
