Samsung ViewFinity S9 5K Monitor Specifications

The new ViewFinity S9 offers a 27-inch screen with a 5K resolution (5,120 x 2,880). Its display offers 50% more workspace than other 4K UHD monitors with exceptional picture and text clarity. It allows professionals to work on ultra-high-resolution content without the need to zoom in, so they can view their projects in 5K while keeping all their editing tools visible on the screen.

With its 99% DCI-P3 and 218 PPI (pixels per inch), the ViewFinity S9 provides more saturated and vivid colors with crisper details, perfect for those who rely on visual fidelity. Furthermore, a typical brightness of 600 cd/m2 makes it easy to work in nearly any lighting environment. Samsung calibration technology helps users achieve the accurate color they want. During production, the monitor’s color is factory calibrated for incredible Delta E <21 accuracy immediately out of the box.

Wait what.... a calibration feature that's going to count on my smartphone having non touched up color recognition?

Are there smartphones that take non modified RAW data pictures with accurate color to the point of calibrating something to be as color accurate a possible?

I question that... (Yes I know you can take RAW photos with some smart phones, my issue is the color accuracy of the pictures. Modifications of results based on reflected light and lit emitted and so on.)

Wait ... so you need a Samsung smartphone to calibrate the monitor? Clever if true ...
