The Samsung U32E850R is a high-end, 4K monitor featuring a massive 31.5-inch PLS panel with 3840x2160 resolution. Both horizontal and vertical viewing angles are great thanks to the PLS type panel, and the monitor is mounted on a stand that provides tilt, swivel, and height adjustments. A USB 3.0 hub is built-in for easy connectivity of high-speed peripherals, and while there are no speakers built-in the Samsung SPU10 sound bar is supported as an add-on if you want basic audio output without taking up more desk space.
Because 4K resolution is four times that of 1080P, it requires a high bandwidth video connection in order to run at its full capabilities. The only ways to do that over a single cable and reach full resolution at 60Hz refresh rate are with DisplayPort or HDMI 2.0, both of which are supported as inputs. Both cable types are included as well: a standard HDMI cable and a Mini DisplayPort to DisplayPort cable. That is handy since different video cards have different sizes of the DisplayPort output, and this monitor has both - so you can go from any DisplayPort capable video card to the monitor with that one cable, regardless of connector size.

This is an impressive monitor! The 3840x2160 screen resolution of this monitor has 4x the pixels of a Full HD 1920x1080 resolution monitor, which provides a lot of work-space, allowing several programs windows to run side by side without overlapping. I have no hesitation recommending this monitor, it is awesome!

This monitor comes with:
(1) Mini DisplayPort to DisplayPort cable
(1) HDMI 2.0 cable
(1) USB 3.0 cable
