I really want to love this monitor as the picture quality is great and for this price it's the cheapest and most featured 5k monitor. But the coil whine! I already on the 4th monitor from Samsung and they all have or develop coil whine within a week! Driving this from an m2 Mac Pro. Anyone has a fix?

yes, same S9. Had manufacturing dates from Nov'23 to Apr'24. I just got another one delivered today, lol. No whine so far! Maybe it's the lucky one - will see. The coil whine on the previous ones was warying from really noticeable to subtle. I can imagine some people may not notice, especially if they have other noise but for me it was really noticeable and annoying, especially in a quiet room.

What's the manufacturing date of the monitor without audible coil whine?

Does the white start right away or it happens after a few days? Do you leave your monitor on all day?
Do you have a video or link on how it sounds so we know ?

Also what type.of connection are tou using or did tou try different connections? Minidp to dp? Usb c to dp or usb c to usb c ? (Mac or windows?)

Wow, at $999 I was going to pay a premium to get the Apple Studio Display instead, but $699 is a steal.

it is Jan'24. So far so good :-) This was last one I was going to try. Already given up and got the Apple Studio Display from a recent Amazon deal. Now need to decide which one to keep.

I have it connected to the Mac via USB-C, no video of the whine unfortunately.

Some monitors had the whine right away, but some developed it within a week.

Is Samsung aware of the issue how hard was it to get a replacement? Did they offer refund?

Os it still working fine? How did you exchange it, do you have to do that in the initial 15 days return period?

Before selecting EDU/EPP program, it's $999.

Even after selecting EDU/EPP, it's $799. How did you make it as $6**?
