I just bought the LS49CG954SNXZA monitor. All the smart features are really aggravating. I just want a monitor, but this is constantly popping up with stuff. I want it to leave me alone and just be a monitor. How do I turn all this off?

Read manual and chatted with tech support. No way to disable smart features that they could tell me.

What Smart features could a monitor possibly have? Really, all a monitor needs to be able to to is display things. Does it not have a manual, app or control panel for settings?

Well, I was just out shopping and saw some lovely Samsung monitors that were just monitors, so if you really do not want a TV, you may as well return it while you can and pick something else.

Yeah, not as good of gaming monitors, but you are right.

I realize that (used to be on CD--just as annoying, give me a booklet any day.), but I'm still wondering what kind of smart features a monitor would have. Maybe I'm unimaginative, but I can't conceive of what they could add, or why any would be necessary but, then, I'm still using a 13 year old hi-rez dumb monitor that only displays what it's connected to.

This thing really should have come with warnings. It is not a monitor, it is a TV

Turn off the WIFI on it. And in the settings change it so it does not AutoStart smart hub. The monitor has a Linux operating system in it and it is essentially an OLED TV just manufactured in a computer monitor shell. With those settings changed it just boots directly into my windows screen and I receive no notifications. FYI if you are going to run it at 5120x1440 @240hz you need a VESA certified 2.1 Display Port cable DP80. The Display Port cable that comes with the monitor does not support the bandwidth needed for that resolution. They only make them 1.5 Feet long so your device needs to be super close to the monitor or you can use an HDMI 2.1 certified cable of any length and reach that resolution as well. The only time I connect the monitor back on WIFI is to check for the auto updates to the software and firmware every couple of months and then turn it back off.
