    Where is the magic bright button on Samsung monitor?

    For Samsung monitors containing the MagicBright utility, which is accessible by pressing the "Down" arrow, make sure the Dynamic Contrast feature is disabled by scrolling down the MagicBright menu and selecting any MagicBright option other than Dynamic Contrast.

    How do I change the display settings on my Samsung monitor?
    mack
    over 1 year ago
    To access the basic picture settings, press the menu button on the monitor to display the Function Key Guide. Select the Menu, and then select the On-Screen Display. The location of the monitor's control button will vary between models: Many have it front and center, just below the SAMSUNG logo.

    What does eye saver mode do?
    aretha
    over 1 year ago
    Samsung's latest high-resolution monitors feature Eye Saver Mode, which actively reduces blue-light emissions. This feature minimizes immediate eye strain and helps prevent longer-terms problems like phototoxicity, a condition of particularly high light sensitivity in the eyes or skin.
