    Lots of features and the display is very nice. This monitor can also work as a smart TV so you can watch Netflix, YouTube etc and even gaming apps such as NVIDIA GeForce now. You can connect mouse and keyboard via Bluetooth directly to this monitor and play games without needing a console or PC. However if you intend to use this for office or productivity be careful because burn in sets really fast. I experienced burn in within 3 weeks. That is an extremely short amount of time to see burn in. 3 weeks after use I noticed the windows task bar had been burned in at the bottom with icons. I used the monitor for office use daily and also gaming sometimes.

    It's not just a monitor

    I thought this was just a monitor, completely unaware that it had a built-in system until I turned it on for the first time. All I wanted was a monitor to pair with my PC; for me personally, this system and built-in speakers are of no use. I don't know why it's still called G8, even though there are such significant differences from the previous generation. The monitor gives me a feeling of a slight bulge in the middle as if it's a reverse curved screen, which is very strange. I am very sure that I was extremely careful while installing it and there were no bumps. Please leave a commit if you have the same feeling. And as for the monitor itself, it’s OK. My ideal high-end HDR monitor should be able to achieve a global brightness of 300-400 nits, beyond which it starts to become glaring, but this monitor is only about 200 nits. After testing, the DP interface now permanently enables DSC, even if you set it to 60Hz. And when I use the HDMI port, only 60Hz is available, even though the same HDMI cable can run 4K 120Hz without enabling DSC on another monitor, further testing is required.

    I have been using this monitor for about 6 months and has been one of the best purchases I have made for my game room. I am able to plug my laptop and have an extra screen and when I’m not working, it’s perfect for streaming apps or playing videogames.

    At first using the remote to navigate changing inputs seem like a bad idea, unt you get used to it. After some help from YouTube to better the visual settings, the stand alone TV apps/ features are more than welcomed. Not having to have the PC on to watch Netflix etc is great on the electric bill and just makes sense. Gaming wise, your games will look and play amazing.

    Amazing 4K HDR 240Hz Gaming Monitor

    The Samsung 32" Odyssey OLED G8 (G80SD) is a cutting-edge gaming monitor that promises to deliver top-tier performance and stunning visuals. One thing to watch for when setting it up is the ports don’t feel sturdy. That Is, don’t plug your cables in with great force and yank them out. Be careful when you’re connecting the cables. The main drawback is the tv function. It is very annoying to have to fiddle around with the tv settings during setup and get it so that my PC outputs to the monitor. If Samsung is billing this monitor for gamers, then it should have made it easy for gaming. We don’t want to watch TV on this. That said, once you set it up and ignore the tv aspects, getting into 4K HDR 240Hz OLED gaming is like that classic song “A whole new world”. It is just amazing. You’ll want to play your games just to marvel at the stunning life-like visuals. The Odyssey OLED G8 shines when it comes to speed and responsiveness. Featuring a remarkable 240Hz refresh rate and an almost instantaneous 0.03ms response time, this monitor is designed for competitive gamers who need every possible advantage. The high refresh rate ensures smooth, fluid gameplay, which is particularly beneficial in fast-paced genres like FPS and racing games. You can plug in either with 8K DisplayPort or HDMI 2.1. Once I dialed down the extraneous settings and turned on DLSS3 with frame generation, I was getting between 140-170 FPS in Call of Duty Modern Warfare 3 running at 4K. The inclusion of AMD FreeSync Premium Pro technology further enhances the experience by minimizing screen tearing and input lag, ensuring a seamless and immersive gaming session. The visual quality of the Odyssey OLED G8 is simply breathtaking. Thanks to OLED technology, the monitor offers deep black levels and vivid colors, creating an incredibly lifelike image. The absence of pixel light bleed means that dark scenes are rendered with exceptional clarity and detail, making horror games and dark-themed titles more immersive. Make sure you turn on HDR on your PC in the Windows 11 display settings because this monitor supports HDR10+ (Samsung uses HDR10+ instead of Dolby Vision in its monitors). Every color pops, and the contrast ratio is among the best you can find in the current market. My laptop is a 2024 model with 165 Hz refresh rate powered by NVIDIA RTX 4070, but this monitor makes my laptop’s screen look pedestrian. It is just a massive upgrade, but I already own a Samsung 4K OLED TV (S95B) so I sort of knew what to expect. One of the standout features of this monitor is its Glare Free technology. This significantly reduces the impact of external light sources on the screen, allowing you to focus on your game without annoying reflections or glare. The matte finish might annoy some, but I found it very helpful. This feature is especially useful in brightly lit rooms or during daytime gaming sessions, as it enhances visibility and reduces eye strain, ensuring you can play comfortably for longer periods. The Odyssey OLED G8 is not just about performance; it's also about style. This monitor just oozes a premium, high end vibe. The sleek metal design, measuring just 3.9mm at its thinnest point, gives it a modern and sophisticated look that can elevate any gaming setup. The CoreLighting+ feature adds a customizable ambient lighting experience, allowing you to set the mood to match your game or your personal preference. This monitor is as much a statement piece as it is a high-performance device. Long gaming sessions can be taxing, but the Odyssey OLED G8's ergonomic stand helps mitigate this issue. The stand allows you to swivel and tilt the monitor to find the perfect viewing angle. This flexibility ensures you can maintain a comfortable posture, reducing the risk of strain and discomfort during extended use. It's clear that Samsung has put a lot of thought into the usability and comfort of this monitor. As a smart monitor, the Odyssey OLED G8 includes a suite of smart features that add to its versatility. You can easily switch between gaming and other forms of entertainment, such as streaming or browsing the web, without the need for additional devices. The built-in smart hub and user-friendly interface make navigating these features a breeze. I was already familiar with the Samsung Tizen software since I own a Samsung TV, but to others it might take a while to get used to it. The Samsung 32" Odyssey OLED G8 (G80SD) is a premium gaming monitor that delivers on all fronts. Its exceptional speed and responsiveness, combined with stunning visual quality and innovative features like Glare Free technology, make it a top choice for serious gamers. The sleek design and ergonomic stand add to its appeal, ensuring it looks great and feels comfortable in any setup. If you’re in the market for a high-performance gaming monitor that doesn’t compromise on style or functionality, the Odyssey OLED G8 is an excellent investment.
