Samsung Odyssey G4 Review
The Samsung Odyssey G4 is an impressive monitor for gaming and everyday use. The 240Hz refresh rate and 1ms response time make gameplay extremely smooth with no noticeable lag or ghosting. Colors are bright and accurate, and the overall design looks sleek and modern on my desk. The adjustable stand is a big plus for getting the perfect angle. The only downside is that the built-in settings menu can be a little tricky to navigate at first, and the speakers aren’t very strong — but that’s expected for most gaming monitors. Overall, it’s an excellent choice if you want high performance and great visuals without breaking the bank.

Great 1080p monitor for gaming
I really like this monitor! 27" seems to be the perfect size, immersive for gaming without overpowering the desk space. I love the height-adjustable stand and that the monitor can tilt and swivel to pretty much any angle. I'm not sure I'd ever have a use for it vertically, but if I found one, it's nice to have the option. The 1080p display is great. There's a small part of me that wishes I'd gotten a 1440p instead, not gonna lie... but my games look gorgeous on this regardless, so I'm not gonna kick myself too hard over it. I didn't even mess with any settings and the picture is bright, vibrant, and crisp. Even when just web browsing or doing non-gaming activities, the screen is clear at this size and resolution. The 240hz refresh rate is AWESOME too! I upgraded from a 24" 60hz monitor and I could hardly believe the difference. I didn't even realize how many FPS I'd been missing out on, lol. (For the record, I pretty much only play single-player RPGs and nothing competitive, so I can't speak to how it would work for more fast-paced FPS games. I imagine fine due to the high refresh rate and fast response time. But as far as visual fidelity goes, the picture on this is beautiful.) It's nice having 2 HDMI ports plus a display port, so I don't have to use a splitter like I did with my old monitor. The only issue I have is with the feature that's supposed to auto-detect which input your device is using. It never seems to do that for me, so I need to manually change it from DP to HDMI, but I don't switch inputs super often so it's no bother. I don't find the settings menu difficult to navigate either to do so. The only reason I knocked off a star is for the aesthetic factor. This may not be important to a lot of people, but I know a lot of us like our gaming setups to look nice, and this monitor... eh. I wish I'd looked closer at the pictures before I bought cause I probably would have went with something more sleek. It has a pretty thick border/bezel, and I'm not sure what the grills (?) are for on both sides of the bottom border. At first I thought they were speakers, but this monitor doesn't have them built in so idk what that design choice is about, unless someone can enlighten me. What bugs me the most though is the NVIDIA G-sync logo right on the front of the monitor at the bottom left (pictured). It's just... unnecessary? Again, I wish I'd looked at the listing/review photos closer. I was hoping it was just a sticker that could come off, but nope. TLDR: Great display at 1080p, versatile, and easy to set up + use. Just wish it was more attractive. Samsung has been a trusted brand of mine for years, and overall I'm happy with this purchase.

Best 1080p 27in. 240hz if bought on sale!
Coming from a 25in 240hz Alienware monitor, I was a little worried about the lower pixel density due to the same resolution (1080p) being stretched now over a larger surface area of 27in. I've had this issue before with the 27in Alienware 240hz monitor, one of the main reasons I switched to the smaller 25in. But to my surprise this samsung panel does some magic with the image it displays. The picture is clear and pixels are not noticeable, at least to my eyes. The colors are the most vibrant I have ever seen on a computer monitor. I purchased the screen at 279.99 on sale, for that price I cant think of anything that would beat it. If your system doesn't do nicely to 1440p, this is the 1080p monitor to try. In regards to the refresh rate, at 240hz I was unable to see any blurring or ghosting on games like Valorant or Apex Legends which I did notice on the 27in Alienware screen. I attached a photo of my setup to show the size difference from my 24in second monitor and the 27in samsung.
