We’re not sure how Samsung has managed to create such fast VA panels of late. It’s no slouch when it comes to competitive online shooters, either.

In that context, the Samsung Odyssey Neo G9 delivers arguably the best visual experience on the PC today. Graphics-heavy titles such as Cyberpunk 2077 or Witcher III are what the G9 does best. For sheer gaming immersion, the crazy 1000R curve, huge 49-inch proportions, and relatively high resolution combine to deliver an experience that few, if any, screens can match. All of what made the original G9 so fabulous remains. The question of whether it’s an issue worth putting up with in return for the in-game experience is tricky. But at this price point, it’s surely a serious flaw. You could say, so what? This monitor isn’t designed for serious content creation or office work. Even uglier, if something like a bright dialogue box pops up across the divide between light and dark elements, the result is a gradient of brightness across the box.įor the record, all this applies to both SDR and HDR modes and, on the Windows desktop, it’s all rather messy and distracting. Or let’s say you move a small, bright object over a dark background. But by way of example, if you position a bright white window next to an all-black window, the adjacent edge of the former visibly dims. Admittedly, they’re most visible on the Windows desktop rather than in-game or watching video.
But the Neo G9 has its own, surprisingly crude, backlight-induced image quality issues. Visible halos around small, bright objects are the sort of issue you expect from full-array dimming. The results are never going to be perfect. Put another way, an algorithm has to decide how bright any given zone should be based on the image data. The problem with any backlight-based rather than per-pixel local dimming technology is that compromises have to be made. Nor, to be entirely candid, is it the technical tour de force we’d been hoping for. That HDMI 2.1 interface may come in handy one day, but right now this epic panel isn’t a good fit for any console. And remember that, for now, neither the Microsoft Xbox Series X|S or the Sony Playstation 5 support the G9’s extreme ultrawide aspect ratio and resolution.

The full 240Hz action is available only via DisplayPort. So you can enjoy up to 144Hz refresh over HDMI, including 120Hz with the latest consoles. Other screens still utilize 5ms response time, a big difference if you’re dodging bullets in-game.Īpart from Samsung's flagship Odyssey G9, other variants of the Samsung Odyssey Monitors launched in November are the 27-inch and 32-inch Odyssey G7 models.As for additional upgrades, the Neo G9 now supports HDMI 2.1. You will not encounter such on the G9, which has a 1ms response time -which means your screen’s microscopic quantum dots (these provide color and pixels) can change color rapidly every millisecond. The refresh rate would be pointless if the QLED suffers motion blur.

The superb visuals plus the lightning-fast response time and lag-free quality brought out the best in me as a player,” said Morales. “The gameplay was really out of this world with the Samsung Odyssey G9. He tested the gaming monitor as he streamed his gameplay of Valorant on Facebook on November 20.

Pro gamer Yves Morales was one of the first to get his hands on the G9. The G9 promises three things: comfort, speed, and image quality.īoasting 240Hz refresh rate, it significantly reduces image lag, which is crucial when you sprint across the battlefield on Valorant or play games with high-speed visuals such as GT or Hot Pursuit.
