I was looking for an inexpensive 4k, 120Hz PC monitor and purchased a 28" (28 is not a typo) open-box Samsung - Odyssey G7 28” 4K UHD IPS AMD FreeSync Premium Pro & G-Sync Compatible Smart 144Hz 1ms Gaming Monitor.

I went to BestBuy and BestBuy had over a hundred of these things in open boxes for $180.

The problem was they are "Smart". Note you would never know they were "smart" unless you looked for some fine print.

Engage rant mode...

Bottom line... I HATE smart monitors. They are a pain. I do not want my PC monitor to have any oddball stuff. I don't want speakers or USB hubs, coffee makers, etc in/on my PC monitor.

I want the video panel, 1 DisplayPort 2.1 port, and one power port. Nothing else

Rant mode off.
