This is hands down the best affordable monitor on the market. It gets me excited knowing that I can play and turn my screen in any direction!

I might be getting a bad monitor. Never work with the video display, and after a couple of weeks from the date I bought it, it started to show pixels and lines. I am waiting for the holidays to pass and am taking it back to Best Buy for review or to exchange it for another one.

Using it for 4 months now, perfect for me. The price is an absolute steal for what you get.
Pros: GSync, 180 HZ (Best at 120 / 144), Great response time, great clarity. Plenty of settings to configure.
Cons: Not as bright as an LG, but not dim by any means.

Without a proper monitor, a computer cannot shine. I enjoyed this monitor so much, I immediately purchased a second monitor to complete a duel screen set-up. Very pleased with my purchase.

I’ve had it for a little over a year and the screen has the horizontal lines issue. Idk why it happened so fast such a bummer. The screen looks bad now :(

Disappointed that the monitor is advertised as 180Hz (three different locations in the BB ad), but the box from Samsung clearly states 165Hz. I wonder what else they lied about in their advertisement of this monitor?

I picked this up yesterday and had a full night of gaming on it. I mostly play Apex Legends and I play on Xbox series S but also some Nintendo Switch games (Zelda, Mario, etc. etc.)
I had been playing a on 32 inch Samsung TV that I got back in 2016 or 2017 and the difference is night and day. The refresh rate and resolution are amazing. I've been playing Apex for a few years now but getting this monitor makes me feel like I'm playing a brand new game. No joke I feel like I'm playing better on this monitor.
Price is a bit high considering there are probably similar options that cost less but I have been using Samsung for decades and the quality is always high and they last forever. Treat yourself!
Console players: Remember to set your console resolution to 1440 and your refresh rate to 120 hz
1080p on 32 inch :/
1440 on 27 inch :D
Comparison image has the Odyssey G5OD display on the left and the old Samsung TV on the right. I hadn't even dialed in the color, brightness, contrast or set the console res to 1440 on the new one yet and there is a NOTICEABLE difference.

The Samsung Odyssey G5 is a great choice for gamers and professionals who want a curved monitor with solid performance. It features a 1440p resolution and a 144hz refresh rate, which means you get sharp visuals and smooth gameplay, especially in fast-paced games. adds an immersive experience without causing eye strain over long sessions. Color accuracy and contrast are good for the price, making it suitable for both gaming and content creation. Plus, its sleek design fits well on any desk setup. Overall, the Odyssey G5 offers excellent value for those looking for a high-refresh, curved monitor without breaking the bank.

I am really liking this monitor. The Odessey G50D 27".
Purchased this as my first gaming monitor to mate with a new AMD PC with HDR and FreeSync capabilities.
Assembly was pretty easy using the instructions. The stand is really substantial and has plenty of heft to keep it where I want it. The range of adjustment is impressive and easy to do. The flat base, while a bit large, makes it easy to put things under the monitor.
I do like that the back of the monitor is just black and not flashy or too ornate, as many gaming monitors are.
I thought the power/stand-by LED was not working. Looking really close I see it does work, it is just really small and dim.
The monitor buttons to navigate the menu are pretty simple to use after a bit of practice.
Hooked up the included DP cable.
I set the monitor FreeSync on and my Win11 PC AMD software acknowledged, showed all of the possible refresh rates available. Started an older game that ran steady at 180 fps to great result.
HDR stuff looks OK, especially after using the Windows HDR Calibration tool.
As I don't game as much as I just use the PC I am pleased with this display for browsing. Text is crisp, colors look great.
I'm still trying things out but I haven't run into any issues.
This is a keeper.
