Imagine losing the cursor on that screen and trying to find it 💀
Finally those cursor finders within PowerToys make sense ;-)
Get PowerToys if you're on Windows and hit ctrl twice to highlight your mouse. If you're on a mac, you can just shake the mouse to get the cursor to grow bigger, which is a native feature.
Ctrl Crl Ctrl
@@aaronroach837 imagine losing track of your cursor. Stupid monitor doesn't improve your experience, it's just social status now.
“With the new 55 inch monitor, losing your cursor on the screen now mimics the emotional experience of getting lost in the grocery store and not knowing where your mom is! It also supports FreeSync.”
That monitor vertically + Pinball Games = Wow
Or Tetris Effect
that would be like pinball in a wavy mirror amusement ride...
I do that with my Alienware 34" 21:9 QD-OLED now, and it's pretty damned awesome. Highly recommended. 😁
@@BrickTamlandOfficial You don't notice the curve much when you're right in front of it. In fact, your eyes adjust to it better than a flat monitor.
@@Just_Pele your neck will notice.
Crazy that, in the 9 months since this video was released, the Ark monitor has dropped from $3,500 to $2,000.
economy is shot
now its around 1700 crazy
@@skyisdlimit6125 Now hold on bruh where the hell is it 1700??
Just ordered my ark 2nd Gen for 1800, got the samsung care for an extra 200$! Super excited, have had the same monitor for almost 10 years!
And still no better than a £500 oled tv
I have the webcam, it's awesome. The whiteboard detection (slowly panning around and finding the board) just has to be done once. Then you can save it and switching back and forth is pretty quick. You can save multiple whiteboards using the same 4 stickers, saving them all as presets, and it remembers the perspective correction it needs to do on each one.
To justify the $3,500 monitor, just imagine the stand is $1,000 and you're getting a 55" monitor for $2500! Worth it!

Rent free! 😂

@@bo4Elite why are you talking about rent as if it were free? rent nowadays is very expensive.

The monitor looks pretty average size until Marques reaches his whole extended arm towards it and points out the 27” screen size and suddenly you realize… it’s a 55” monitor 🤯

Love how Samsung almost always manages to make it into a Dope Tech video. They really do some cool stuff outside just phones and traditional TV's.
Did you miss the bit where it said it was sponsored?
@@cwuzii What does that have to do with anything? It could have been it's own video, but Marques decided to include it into Dope Tech series, THAT is why i am mentioning this. Did you miss the bit where your brain stopped working?
@@ItsDaniPlays because you’re saying you love how they manage to make it into a dope tech video… did you forget that part spaz? I’m saying they didn’t “make it”, they literally PAID and he put them in. I’m not saying they wouldn’t have been in the video if they weren’t the sponsor, but it isn’t likely… I guess we’ll never know. Back to your video games kid.

You read the whiteboard, right?
11:44, the camera turning down its head is so cute, it looks like someone has scolded it.
I've been saying the Odyssey Ark monitor looks like it's scolding whoever sits in front of it 😂
I have never seriously considered spending more than 500 on a monitor until today. This would be amazing for cad design and would eliminate the need for multiple monitors.
Watch others reviews this monitor doesn't support to be used as multiple monitors the other apps running next to the PC as seen here are installed apps on the monitor... Otherwise I would have bought on release since i already have an 49" ultra wide Samsung monitor and wanted even more space

just turn ur monitor lul
@@yuvan5717 Yeah, but the screen real estate here is massive.
@@Neoxon619 I found that if I use a large monitor vertically, even though I have so much room for coding, it is not that comfortable because you have to move your head so much when looking at different parts of the monitor (because it is so tall). Notice that I'm speaking of 27"+ monitors
@UCcl4ZASPV24gAzkoLs7JhPQ 🤣🤣🤣🤣
this Dope Tech series is just totally astonishing. I have enjoyed all the videos in this series and look forward to more of these! Keep Up MKBHD
Not really. All of his dope tech is already on the internet. What's astonishing is people rely on this once source of tech news when there is in fact, many other sources out there. Sure he gets early access to some of the tech he shows, but not all. I saw this monitor or talk of it from one of their past consumer / trade shows.
@@all.day.day-dreamer your hater side is showing 👀
You’re gonna get a lot more likes for this comment. Congratulations
@@kingmuze8219 I guess I am not so easily influenced. And I tell you what, since you are worried about what others think of you, I will give you a like on your comment to make you happy.
Also the dope tech reviews don't fully review the tech and only mention the pros because they are sponsored. He doesn't mention the flaws in them. Basically don't trust any review from a youtuber with more than 500k subscribers since most of them are sponsored and only trying to get you to buy the tech.
I love the features of this camera. The practical application was well thought out. Great job!
That webcam is pretty cool. Especially if you’re a streamer. You can use the “whiteboard mode” for a transition/ break. Imagine having a logo on the wall (or I suppose you can put it over a TV with a moving wallpaper and use that for when you’re having a 5 min break, just throw up a peace sing and it’ll pan over and then you can do your own thing. Would love to see that in action
imagine wasting your life watching streamers
I’ve been playing with the Insta360 Link for about a week now. As a college professor and edtech trainer, I can tell you that this is a complete game changer for online and hybrid teaching. Switching from follow mode to whiteboard mode to top-down mode for demos etc. is a purely magical experience.
@dolimi jotoo woah, bots can reply now wtf?
want to be in your class so badly, my virtual experience with professors has been absolutely.. disappointing (nothing on them of course!! i blame it on the lack of access to tech / training)

The Odyssey Ark is a must have! Looks so nice. The Power Bank would be amazing on my work trips.
would love to see some teachers/schools trial the webcam!
Me: “That power bank looks awesome. I might buy one.” Marques: It’s over $200. Me: “Yeah… maybe not.”
Lol saaame
It is a little bit too much 😖
My reaction exactly... Super disappointed by the price point
Marques is on a streak of selling out lately :(
@@coltan7941 I click on this video to see a monitor and have to skip a nearly-three minute ad for an expensive power bank.

Plagiarized comment
thanks Xavier, very cool comment
How come it's not a mirror image of whiteboard ? So neat
Yeah amazing feature...
who tf is this guy and why is he in every comments!
I have to say the webcam was very impressive. Seems extremely cool and practical for teachers. U had the whiteboard pretty far but the quality was still good and the angle looked straight on. If schools go virtual again I could see people using this
@9:51 I like that master plan marques 😂
0:11 Powerbank: Shargeek Storm 2 2:40 Monitor: Odyssey Ark 8:15 Webcam: Insta360 Link
Really impressed with insta 360. Hope they keep exploring new ideas like this. Perhaps even exploring the dash cam market? That’d be pretty sick too.
That monitor and Microsoft Flight Simulator would be insane. And that Insta360 webcam's "whiteboard mode" is a game changer. Dope tech for real!
The camera is amazing!
The easter eggs are probably the best part😂 Like crashing your car to show you can still be trash with top end hardware The big plans to destroy LTT and bring daft punk back
Can we talk about the big plans? That made me laugh a lot harder than it should've! 😂😂😂

Huh?
your videos are just so good. I'm a fan of your work MKBHD.
The monitor. I just fell in love with it. Please keep doing these videos.
That webcam looks amazing! Never seen it showcased before
It's stuttering like crazy and is horrible 10:00
have you not been keeping up with the news because i haven't been able to escape it. all over my subscriptions and newsfeeds.
There are so many tech reviewers reviewed it already
@@canIhavethishandle it's because the company is paying everyone
@@nigel-uno pretty sure that's just the app stuttering. If you were using it in OBS or zoom or whatever you'd be fine
The webcam looks awesome, but I noticed in the video feed on the monitor it kept freezing 🥶.
same here! i came looking for this comment
Yes, so weird most people didn't notice that
We need this kind of videos more
That webcam is awesome....niceeee...and the peace sign lol dope
I got so excited when I saw the Shargeek powerbank because I though at first that there would be an option to provide your own cells as it looks like they are not soldered together. I think more companies should consider selling a bank with at least easily replaceable cells so you don't have to throw the whole thing away at the end of it's life.
Nobody would buy the powerbank for $150 without batteries. The 4 26650 5000mAh batteries on the lite model cost maybe $40 retail, and less than 20 from a supplier in Asia. There are insane margins on that product.
Unfortunate that they aren't replaceable, especially at that price point. I do wonder how difficult it'd be to take apart though, as my first thought was that I'd love to put some custom wraps on the cells.
@@Psi-Storm Agreed! If you’d like a power bank with an informative OLED real-time display that’s smaller, lighter slightly more powerful & much, much cheaper, I would recommend the 26800mAh/99Wh Kuulaa KL-YD37A
Marques does a fantastic job highlighting the features of the Link. If you're looking for the next level of webcam look no further 😏 dope tech, dope video
Now do dashcams
@@rokelesoke literally this haha, after seeing that LTT video
What about all the freezing and lagging? It was every few seconds during the short time he showed the cam on the monitor.. That's unusable 😣
@@lindqren The product just got released and they’re improving the software every week. Last week some someone ask for a cat cam feature and they literally started working on it!
Nice boy
I will be getting this soon. You've done a much more detailed demo that the guys at Unbox Therabpy. Thanks.
Now that's some DOPE TECH!
Until he (almost 2m tall guy) didn't stand close to that monitor, I couldn't appreciate how freakishly massive that thing actually is :D
Just saw Linus' video next to it and the thing looks like a theater screen lmao

How is it called that launcher?
$3500 for that monitor was a lot cheaper than I was expecting. Especially coming from Samsung and with the speakers it has.
Same.
Also wait a year and it’s probably 2000$
@@DonBilboism Exactly. That's a reasonable price. I would have expected something like this in the $5k-$7k range
I paid around $2kCAD for my Odyssey G9. Seriously thinking of grabbing this one.
@@matthewmathis6322 You can get Samsung 65” QD-OLED for $1500 in America if you use work email to buy it, or something like that. This is VA MiniLED. It’s 2 categories worse than QD-OLED. This price is already ridiculous.
the web cam is dope ...❤🔥
Great job putting this together.
Didn't know about that webcam, definitely a must-see at least! Really cool.
No way im buying that did you see how much the webcam froze
i like how it freezes a lot @10:04
@@GabrahmRotom Weirdly it seems like the preview kept freezing but the recorded footage was fine. Hopefully Insta360 can easily fix it with an update to the app.
@@FReNchMoLEy @Sean Reily Robles I saw the freeze too but when you see how many people already used it and told him to check it out. It could have been about something not even related to the webcam... You can look at the video of iJustine there is no freeze too and reviews if you really need to.

That camera is so cool and useful whether u need to attend classes, meetings, create content all stuff u can imagine
Did you notice the video was freezing on the monitor while he was filming? lol
@@JRAnalyzes Yeah if you ask me the webcam is like freezing like every few seconds
@@GabrahmRotom It has to do with the PC, not being able to handle the display and the screen recording going on
But still that is much better from what we usually get in laptop (basically m a student) so i see the functionalities far more useful than that also I can attend interviews in that quality that's too good
Just put in my preorder. Can't wait!
Crazy how I missed this video until I seen the storm 2 and needed videos on it
I honestly have to say, while its still insanely expensive, 3500 for that monitor isn't as bad as I was expecting. And its almost 'reasonable'. Like, its still more than I would ever spend on a single display, and I'm far more into having separate displays but, given what its capable of, the specs, the tech behind it etc. its not that bad. I can see a few people getting real use out of something like that,.
Yeah I know it's an easy shot to mention Apple when discussing tech prices, but this is insanely better value than a Pro Display XDR starting at $5000 USD
Like Air Traffic Controls OR Weather Predicting People
@@sagarkapasi099 lol I think you meant Meteorologists but I'm totally gonna use "Weather Predicting People" from now on... sounds way more mystical and supernatural
@@CosmicTeapot I wasn't gonna spend time googling on a comment hardly anybody was going to see
@@CosmicTeapot £5000?? Jeeeeez
There was a show on Discovery Channel many years ago, that used to show some "hi-tech" gadgets and I used to watch it as a kid. This looks like a more hands on version of that xD
the vertical gaming is what I really wanted to see when LTT showed it. I feel like that could be such a good dual use because it's a 0 bezel 3 screen monitor vertical then an imersive screen that kind of simulates an ultra wide for only $3500. That's an amazing deal imo.
The webcam is DOPE
That monitor can take drone flights to a whole new level.
04:05 Solar panels for a gaming monitor!! I thought gamers like dark rooms lol 🤣
well it's there when you really have to use it in daytime
the light from the panel can charge those remotes. no need to be exposed to the sun
@@fist003 I highly doubt/hope the monitor isn't outputting enough UV radiation to charge a device...
I thought the same what's need of putting solar pannel on a thing which will probably never see sunlight in its life 😂😂
you made me laugh A LOT on that one, thanks!
There's one think I really like about Marques. It's his fandom towards Daft Punk. It always makes me smile.
Love this series. Good to see a new installment.
That monitor really is dope af,and I thought the ones that can rotate was fly as hell,but this is on another level
I now get why you are such an amazing and popular youtuber. Because of your personality and identity. Love this video.
I found out about this one late man, def gonna pick this up. If something new comes out before Black Friday then idk lol

Fam…the battery banks were already dope but the monitor webcam is absolute fire and the monitor…is so beautiful it almost made me cry 🤷🏾♂️😂😂
I’m digging the big plan list haha good stuff guys!
That monitor is amazing! Great vid!
Thank you for this great presentation!! this Famous Odyssey ARK, supports VRR and ALLLM?
The monitor is intriguing although I wish Marques talked about the image quality too with in depth testing. But I guess Dope tech isn't really a review segment? I see on the website it has HDR 10. Is that a good thing for a monitor of this price?
I love the whiteboard feature, had no idea about that or the top down style mode. If my fiancee ever has to teach remotely again I'm definitely springing for this as a gift for her! It went from a cool little gimmick with the tracking to a full-blown teacher's dream setup.
8:02 OUCH!!!!!
this monitor is amazing, thanks, now i know for what i save up next
Considering in purchasing this or the sero This is fire
Geez, I need a dedicated studio for all of this dope tech in my future 😍😍
This Monitor is perfect for streaming. Three 27“ monitors in one is amazing 🤯 But man is it expensive 😭
Also windows and macos does not support samsung multi-view.
@@cycling0079 windows doesn't have to support it.
I expected it to be in 5K CAD range, which sounds about right. I mean it is only for weirdos. There is no way you can consider it as 3 stacked monitors because ever the top most streamers use maximum HD quality for the rest of the screens other than the gaming monitor because it is basically all text. This is just overkill. But if you consider it as a TV, that you can game on, then having a 4K with 1000R with 165h is kinda in the price range.
How?
Just wait 5 years lol
Marques, thank you for doing a Great job!
I was impressed by the webcam. Great video btw.
I've been using that Shargeek for a month now and just FYI the port (1:27) that he's using is only rated at 30w. There's an input/output USBC port that is rated for 100w but will drop down depending if the the 2nd USBC (30 watt port) is being used. There's also DC IN/OUT port but when in use it gives you a warning not to use any other input devices. This means if you utilize that DC port you cannot be charging this battery with the USBC input. I took the larger one on a roundtrip flight with no issues from TSA. Just keep it in your bag =].
Damn, with how good the monitor is, I thought it would cost well over $5k! At $3500, it seems relatively cheap for what it offers.
ok buy me one
3:25 MKBHD: "Why would someone get something like this? What is this capable of? Well, turns out pretty much everything." Monitor: ** Runs one input source at a time **
The ppi on that arc display is holding it back. Even going from 27in 4K to 27in 5k was noticeable. Can’t see myself buying a low ppi screen anymore as reading text is my main use case.
That power bank is actually gnarly! Okay. Ontop of the monitor and everything, this might be the best dope tech episode you've done Marques
