Customer Ratings & Reviews

Might’ve d day difference i definitely recommend fir gaming !

Decent monitor, just dislike the matte finish on the screen, decided to go with a different brand.

DO NOT purchase this monitor! I failed to do any in-depth research prior to buying this monitor, and I am sorry that I didn't because I am out 800 bucks now. This monitor was purchased less than six months ago and has sat on my desk the entire time. It has never been dropped, hit, or damaged in any sort of way. Other than the now broken power button that I have, this monitor is in mint condition. If you do a little bit of research, you will see that many buyers have experienced the power button cracking. There are reviews here on Best Buy website as well as other places on the internet. Do your research! Best Buy sent me to Samsung and said that it has a three-year warranty, but Samsung refuses to fix it. I spoke with three different supervisors and they all told me the same thing – it's physical damage and it's not covered. Consider yourself warned.

I was super stoked about getting this monitor until what I received came broken out of the box. The box itself even had a big hole on the outside from where an object of some sorts pierced through and cracked the screen. The design of the protective packaging (which I assume Samsung is responsible for) was ridiculous to begin with because the monitor faces outwards and the styrofoam design has open slots that expose the monitor, making certain parts just cardboard between the monitors screen and the cardboard. Yeah, well long story short I tried to exchange it for the exact same monitor (just one that wasn’t damaged…) and they refused to let me do that. I spent the better part of two weeks speaking to best buy reps and driving all over to different Best Buy locations to just be stuck with this broken screen. Oh and on top of that when i went into one of the stores the cashier thought it wouldn’t be an issue to exchange and she started to unpack the box for then to tell me that they couldn’t exchange it because the purchase wasn’t in their system. Mind you I purchased it from that store the NIGHT BEFORE. And to top it all off the monitor stand was never put back in the box when she took everything out, so I contacted the store many times asking if I could come get my stand at the very least….. to which I heard absolutely nothing. By far the worst customer service and purchasing experience I’ve had in my entire life. Do yourself a favor and stay far far away from Best Buy. It’s a complete joke of an establishment now, nothing even close to the store I used to love.

My g6 monitor and this arm match perfectly no extra needed! It slides smoothly when i put it in position or away.

Awesome monitor, very thin bezel and actually a very thin monitor all together. Works great

It’s cool, vibrant. Definitely way better than my 1080p led monitor. Huge upgrade.

best monitor today. quality, construction and everything that is best today

Amazing monitor detail is fabulous. Works with Gsync also

Bought the monitor and used it for about 5 hours. Went to take a break and thrned off the display and i was warned beforehand that a pixel refresh will run. I came back an hour later and after a turned it on, there was a line of stuck pixels that was very noticeable. The panel also had very bad and almost unbearable image retention from the first hour that used it. Text look as if it was from a 720p monitor. The motion quality was amazing but that was the only good thing i could find about it other than the build quality. Returned it the very next day. Would not buy it again

The Samsung Odyssey OLED G6 has so many features to brag about and a few downsides worth mentioning. Included are display ports for a DisplayPort 1.4 and two for HDMI 2.1, as well as two USB-A ports, an audio jack, and a USB-B port. It includes cables: DisplayPort, HDMI 2.1, and USB-B to USB-A. I chose to connect the monitor to the HDMI 2.1 because of the higher bandwidth and it is absolutely a step up from my previous setup. The 360Hz refresh rate and 0.03ms response time take gaming to a whole other level. The picture is fluid, and I can act and react quickly and accordingly because of it. It also comes equipped with AMD FreeSync Premium Pro, which is compatible with my NVIDIA GeForce RXT graphics card to provide a powerful combo for a smooth picture. I tested the refresh rate and FPS and indeed got the advertised 360Hz refresh rate and 360FPS. The colors are stunning - vibrant, saturated, true, and rich. The blacks are amazing! Literally the blackest I have seen on a screen. The colors coupled with the QHD resolution work in tandem to provide a stunning picture quality. Games like Fortnite are extremely vibrant because of this, while Battlefield looks so much more realistic than in my other monitor and my big screen tv. The details that were put into the game look almost lifelike using this display. The screen is not reflective whatsoever and thus, there is very little glare. The only time I experienced any was when the sun was shining through the window, and it was quite subdued. It just washed down the color in that area slightly instead of glaring. The monitor itself is extremely thin around the edges with just some bulk concentrated in the middle portion. It makes my setup look incredibly sleek and even mesmerized my visitors; it was the first thing they noticed when they saw it. It comes with CoreLighting+ which provides ambient lighting from the back of the monitor in an array of color options. I actually really enjoy this feature since I have a wall behind it, and it gives of a nice ambience that goes with the rest of my setup while also reducing eyestrain when I play in the dark. The stand gives a high degree of adjustability to get the height and angle just right. Additionally, it moves easily and stays put exactly where it is placed. It is a big plus for me because I stand once in a while to get some circulation flowing in my legs and I like that I can just lift the monitor and tilt it up when I do this. Behind the monitor is a control button that moves in four directions to change the settings. With it, the input can be changed, the volume, brightness, etc. In addition to those, it has a settings menu which allows customization of CoreLighting+ among many other things. There are a few downsides that should be noted. One is that this monitor tends to run hot. Once it is in use for a while, I can feel the heat coming from it. This is okay for now, but it will be an issue when the heat waves roll in. Another is text clarity, words and letters are not as crisp as I am used to. If this is mostly for gaming, it is hardly an issue as I did not notice it much in-game. I noticed it only when browsing the internet and when using a Word document. All things considered; I believe the pros far outweigh the cons when it comes to gaming. It has the speed, fluidity, and power to elevate my gaming and give me a competitive advantage while just looking sleek on my desktop.

As with many consumer products these days this one follows the trend with very minimal basic printed instructions in the package. If you follow the pictographs in the quick start it is easy enough to attach the monitor to the stand and the stand to the base though. There’s lots of other unrelated pieces of paper included (which could be online) but I had to spend some time finding the full user guide on their website. I was impressed with the design and function overall. One touch push button release on both ends of the stand is very well done. The rich silvery metallic color and near zero bezel along with a super slim and curvy monitor backside makes it look quite stunning and high end. The monitor’s ergonomic design ensures that you can find the perfect viewing angle, reducing eye strain during long gaming sessions. I found the adjustment for height, tilt, and side to side to be super easy and smooth and there was the perfect amount of resistance so that it could not be easily bumped out of your favorite position. The on-screen menu system is user-friendly, allowing for quick adjustments to settings such as brightness, contrast, and color profiles. There’s also a handy registration reminder with a built-in QR code. The Odyssey offers a range of input options, including HDMI, DisplayPort, multiple USB ports, and a headphone jack ensuring compatibility with a variety of devices. This versatility makes it easy to connect gaming consoles, PCs, and other peripherals. The S27DG60 features a 27-inch OLED panel with a 2560 x 1440 (QHD) resolution. The OLED technology provides vibrant colors, deep blacks, and an impressive contrast ratio, enhancing the overall visual experience. The QHD resolution ensures that images are sharp and detailed, perfect for gaming and content creation. HDR support further improves color accuracy and brightness, making games and media look incredibly lifelike. Performance is out of this world. With a 360Hz refresh rate and a lightning-fast 0.03ms response time, this monitor ensures smooth and fluid gameplay. It supports both NVIDIA G-SYNC and AMD FreeSync Premium, providing seamless synchronization with your GPU to eliminate screen tearing and reduce input lag. There are various settings for gaming, including picture modes for RPG, RTS, and FPS games. Honestly, I couldn’t tell that much difference using different modes while gaming. I did really like the Black Equalizer which was nice for really dark games such as Diablo which is one I play frequently. This allows specific brightness adjustment for the dark areas to help see things better. Not sure how I might use it but did play around with the PIP (Picture in Picture) feature a bit and found it to be rather interesting. You can have different inputs drive the main and PIP screens and size and move the PIP window around all through relatively straightforward control via the on screen menu. Samsung also provides a 3 year warranty with the monitor which means they are confident of the product quality.

The 360hz is impressively smooth, and the monitor works well for certain action games. Sadly quality is very poor quality for text and other high contrast blocks/elements due to the purple/reddish fringe that appears at the bottom of elements on the screen. I had to return this monitor the same day because it is unusable for coding due to bad text rendering in Windows 11. The matte coating on the display is pretty good, especially compared with my ASUS M16 laptop's LCD panel.

Samsung has released their new 27" Odyssey G6 OLED QHD Freesync gaming monitor, and it doesn't disappoint. The box includes the monitor, base, stand (connects base to monitor), HDMI cable, DP cable, USB/PC cable, power cable with transformer (split), and quick user guide/paperwork. The monitor comes with a manufacturer's 3-year warranty. PROS: ----------- * The base/stand/monitor connect easily with no tools. Also easy to break down if needed. * The monitor is VESA and has HAS/TILT/SWIVEL/PIVOT ability. Extremely versatile. * Plenty of connections and ports with easy access on the rear - USB 3.0 PC, (2) USB3.0, (2) HDMI 2.1, headphones jack, DP1.4, and DC in. What I love here are the ports facing outwards instead of downwards. * 360Hz is likely overkill for most games; however when playing games, it's extremely smooth. PS5's only have the ability to output to 120Hz, so you're likely going to see the biggest gains and serious smoothness on PC games. Additionally, 0.03ms response time is as good as it gets anywhere. * The OLED glare-free screen is huge. The screen is quite visible from wider angles as well. * The OLED Safeguard+ technology is a huge addition to this monitor. This is a feature that helps control the temperature of the screen itself to help prevent burn-in. * The monitor itself if made of thin, sleek, and very strong metal. The built-quality is very good and sturdy. * The user menu is easy to use with the reverse joystick on the rear of the unit. There is enough room underneath the screen itself to place your hand easily to make changes. Upon turning on the first time, it offers the user a QR code to register the monitor right off the bat. After scanning the QR code, the fields are auto-populated in your browser with the model and serial number... this was a super easy process and a great feature I haven't seen on any other monitor. * The circle LED light on the rear can be changed in a handful of ways. Nice touch. * HDR blacks are very black - as good as I have seen in any monitor. These blacks can obviously be adjusted further if needed. CONS: ----------- * Cable management is basic at best. There's a rubber ring on the rear that does the job but it's not very fancy. I would have liked to see a better design for cable management but it is acceptable. OTHER OBSERVATIONS: ----------- * If the monitor needs to travel, it can be placed in the Styrofoam easily in the original box after the base/stand/monitor is broken down easily. CONCLUSION: ===================== The 2 main features of this monitor are the 360Hz refresh rate and the abundant ways the monitor self-regulates the screen temperature and ability to combat screen burn-in and making the monitor last for years. This is likely the best picture I have ever seen on any monitor. It's vivid, bright, colorful, and has every ergonomic ability available. The price point is high, but in this case, you're getting what you pay for. I highly recommend this monitor from Samsung. The G6 is extremely top-notch. The only thing that would make this monitor better is if it was a 21:9 aspect ratio, but that's nitpicking. Great job, Samsung!

First few days I was amazed at how smooth it was…but then on the 3rd day it started to show dead pixels. I tried all the different methods to see if it would fix but it wouldn’t.

Good monitor but back jog button broke after a month of purchase, I wish would have done research before buying because its a known common issue with this monitor.

Barely a year old and the power button joystick literally fell off. Clearly defective and what does Best Buy and Samsung tell me to do? Go kick rocks.. I'll never EVER buy another Samsung product as long as I live.

The Samsung Odyssey G6 might just be a game-changer in the world of gaming monitors. This 27-inch OLED monitor, with its QHD (2560 x 1440) resolution OLED display offers an immersive gaming experience that is second to none. The first thing you notice about the Odyssey G6 is its design. It’s as thin as paper and has a top-tier design. The sleek metal design and ergonomic stand provide optimal comfort for extended gaming sessions. It's height adjustable and is at home whether in portrait or landscape mode. The performance of the Odyssey G6 is where it truly shines. With a 360Hz refresh rate and a 0.03ms response time (GtG), it delivers ultra-fast and smooth gaming action. This, combined with AMD FreeSync Premium Pro, allows for seamless and stutter-free gaming experiences. The OLED Safeguard+ technology includes a unique Dynamic Cooling System with a Pulsating Heat Pipe in the monitor to prevent burn-in as well as thermal modulation that auto-controls brightness. The OLED Glare Free technology significantly reduces glare from external light sources, ensuring that your gaming experience is not compromised. The OLED display is nothing short of remarkable. The Odyssey G6 delivers superior brightness with an expansive spectrum of colors and nearly limitless shades. The deep black levels with dynamic contrast enable supreme depth in scenes. The visuals are simply stunning, with dazzling color and definition. The Samsung Odyssey G6 is a top-tier gaming monitor that offers an unparalleled gaming experience. It's certainly a significant investment, however with its combination of cutting-edge technology, sleek design, and superior performance it may just be a must-have for any serious gamer.

Amazing monitor. Once you experience an Oled panel, there is no going back anymore, and this is even an further improvement, being it a QD-Oled. Monitor came very well packed in a brown box. It was very well protected with Styrofoam and the screen itself had a peel plastic protector (this is important, some other manufacturer in the past skimped on this and there were damaged panels) and a nice cushy one. Included in the box was an sturdy and easy to assembly stand (which I did not use, since I arm mounted mine), however it could tell it was heavy and made of aluminum. I like that the sand is one solid piece and not one of those "V" shaped feet other monitors give. This way is a solid one piece and doesn't occupy much space on your desk. They also included a variety of accessories, like a power brick and cable, a 8k Display port cable, a HDMI cable and a upstream USB cable (to connect the monitor to your PC and use its two USB ports as a USB hub). The back of the monitor also supports arm/wall mounting and uses a standard VESA monitor mount spacing. It was easy and simple to mount to my desk mount (and super light being so thin, another Oled benefit). The power button is in the back around the middle of the monitor (feels a little awkward to reach underneath, I would have preferred it to be on the back but around the side, or even better, for the price for them to enable and include a remote control). Once connected I pressed the button and started my PC. Upon start the resolution is 2560x1440p but at 60Hz, I had to go to Windows display settings to finally select 360Hz!! I'm still wrapping my head around such fast refresh rates are possible today. The resolution is perfect for me and I feel is the perfect middle ground between 1080p and 4k. Its not as taxing as 4k while still giving me great picture quality and at this 27" pixel density is great. Now onto the elephant in the room. The MATTE coating. Well, I was a glossy snub before and I was a little apprehensive about this one. However, I must report that Samsung has done this antiglare coating RIGHT. Its not as aggressive as others, and does help with reflections without distorting image or reducing contrast or brightness. BELIEVE ME. You notice it of course when the screen is off, but when on, good lord the picture quality, contrast and saturation of this QD-OLED panel is amazing. You would not be disappointed. The 360hz refresh rate and more importantly the near instant response times of Oled panels is amazing. There is no lag or trails around images nor blur (unlike LCD panels). You must have a good video card with display port to be able to drive such high refresh rates, however if you can't achieve such high frame rates, the display also supports adaptive sync/Freesync premium (variable refresh rate. The image on HDR mode is amazing. I would recommend on Windows, you first download the Windows HDR calibration tool from the Windows app store to correctly calibrate and create a HDR profile for Windows. I also recommend you keep your desktop on SDR mode and only enable HDR (you can use key combo of Winkey+alt+B) before launching a game you know supports HDR. If you set the peak brightness to high and picture mode to eco, the display reaches around 1000nits with the calibration tool. Games that support HDR loo AMAZING on this screen. This screen also has Samsung's new Safecare+ system, that has colling heat pipes on the back to better cool the screen, and this (together with other techs like pixel shift and pixel refresh) helps to avoid burn in. If you take care of your screen you will not have burn in. I recommend one watches/plays a variety of content, never keeping static images for a long time. I recommend on a PC, to first, set a plain all black background, then remove any icons (no icons) from your desktop and set the windows taskbar to autohide. This are the best settings for any Oled panel being used with a PC. Highly recommend this screen for any serious gamer!!!! ************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************** Some quick PROS AND CONS: +++PROS+++ +New gen QD-OLED panel. +Amazing contrast and colors. +Perfect blacks. +360Hz refresh rate +Variable refresh rate (Freesync premium). +Antiglare coating done right IMHO. Helps with reflections. +Protective new technologies to avoid early burn in. +Nice stand and cables included. +Wall/arm mount compatible, standard VESA. ---CONS--- -I did not like where the power/control button/nipple is situated. -No remote control for the price.

I was looking for a replacement monitor for my aging 8+ year old Acer Predator 2k TN Panel Monitor. Over many years I've used my old Acer Predator monitor with 3 different gaming builds and never thought I was really missing anything with OLED or more modern gaming monitors. I decided to try something new, modern and wanted to see if I could up my quality of gaming will keeping my 2k resolution with my current gaming rig. I want to start off by how immediate and shocked I was when first turning on my monitor and just looking at my desktop. The color difference between my old TN panel monitor and this OLED monitor is literally night and day! I have 2 other 10+ year old TN panel monitors, left and right of this screen and immediately can't stand looking at my other 1080p 60hz monitors because of the massive color difference and how bland my other monitors look. I never knew what I was missing until today! From a specs perspective, this monitor outshines everything I've ever had. I had to upgrade my display cable to be able support 360hz, as my older display cable didn't work. Luckily there was one in the box, though some may need to get a longer cable that support 360hz if your PC is father then 4-5ft away from your display output. Additionally, the HDR capabilities on this monitor are breathtaking! I haven't really had much HDR experience with other monitors, but I can say initial impressions blow me away when playing HDR enabled content. This monitor has 2 additional inputs outside of the display port so hooking up a console, or media to this monitor would be a breeze and switching inputs is easy. The Monitor also has 2 3.0 USB ports in the back as well if looking to hook up a USB hub near the monitor, though not sure if both work identically, as one is marked as service. There are no speakers on this monitor, which is fine by me, as I use headphones or dedicated speakers. I should mention though there is a headphone jack on the back with its independent output in the settings. It is only a 2 channel output from initial testing so would not be expect 7.1 surround. I also love that the base is a solid flat base vs traditional V shaped bases on the older models of Odyssey monitors. The base is solid and VERY stable, though I do wish the base was matte black for my gaming setup. There is practically no glare on this monitor what so ever. With an overheard bright light right on top of my head, I see no glare or light bounce off this monitor. If I had to choose between my older 8 year old 2k SDR Monitor and this OLED HDR 2k monitor, I would choose this OLED monitor every time! The colors pop, the blacks are deep, and the pixel density is beyond what I've ever owned for my gaming setup. For the price, you are getting a great monitor! Though be prepared for a hefty investment as this is a brand name high quality monitor. One I will be using for many years to come. I will update this review if I ever encounter long term burn in, but with this monitors various technologies that prevent this very issue, I doubt this will be an issue. If you have the capital to get a quality 360hz OLED gaming monitor, aren't looking for the overly demanding 4k gaming experience, want a reasonable 2k gaming experience, and looking for colors that will rock your world. I recommend this a thousand times over!
