Since its inception in 2014, the Samsung line of curved monitors has surpassed 1 million in sales. Now to make another successful addition to the line, Samsung has announced the unveiling of a new curved monitor at CES 2017.
In a Samsung press release dated December 29th, 2016, it was announced that a new curved 'quantum dot' monitor would be unveiled at CES 2017.

Her statement raises the expectations from the specs of the CH711.
The CH711 is available in 27-inch to 31.5-inch variations with an '1800R' curvature. (The lower the curvature number, the higher the curvature - explained in 'The Amazing Secrets of Samsung Curved Monitors' infographic.) Previous models have had curvatures of 3000R or more. This means that this is Samsung's most curved monitor released yet. Speaking of the curvature, the CH711 also boasts of a 178 degree viewing angle. Curvature wise the monitor seems to be completely immersive in nature.
The monitor also possesses a resolution of 2560 x 1440 and WQHD picture. The 'W' means that the screen has a wide aspect ratio ( 16:9 ) and QHD denotes that the screen has 4 times the definition of a standard 720p HD display. The CH711 also has a 125% sRGB color coverage. This means that it surpasses other standard monitors in color reproduction.
These specs indicate a high-performance product and are clearly designed for gamers and pro users. The wide resolution, high definition and accurate color reproduction make for an immersive gaming/professional experiences.
According to the CES 2017 website, the summit will take place in Las Vegas, Nevada from January 5 - 8, 2017. The CH711 is expected to be a prime attraction with users flocking to see yet another marvel of technology.
