GadgetGuy’s take

Samsung High-Res 4K monitors 2021 offer good specifications, and the U models with downstream 90W charging are very useful. For my money, the 34” S65U 3440 x 1440 100R curved at $999 is the logical choice for a single monitor setup.

Otherwise, a pair of 27/32” S7 3840 x 2160, no hub, at $429/$549, will appeal to dual monitor users who will need a separate docking station like the Plugable Intel Titan series that supports Thunderbolt 3 and 4 and USB-C 3.1 Gen 2 with HDMI and DP outputs to drive them.
