    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

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    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.

    Right out of the box I was immediately impressed by how simple it was to put this monitor together -just snap and twist without any tools whatsoever. Also, it is not heavy, so handling it was easy. The next thing I noticed was how thin the panel is in comparison with my other 32” monitors. The silver/black design language is sleek and elegant. The silver edges are not intrusive, and the bezels are super thin. Once on my desk, I noticed that I had more real state to put my speakers and soundbar under the monitor. The monitor features plenty of connectivity such as HDMI 2.1, DP.14, and USB-A. Unfortunately, it is missing a USB-C and 3.5mm audio jack. Also, I would’ve liked to see an additional HDMI port. There is also Bluetooth support. Setting it up is a breeze, especially since I have a Samsung phone. Through the app, I can adjust settings and use it as a remote. In addition, I can use it as a digital controller and many other cool features. I originally thought the smart features were a gimmick, but not only did I find myself watching media content this way more often, but that allowed my PC to rest when not in use. The sun-powered remote is a great supplement. Another surprising feature is that there is picture-in-picture mode! The panel features a non-reflective coating which is rather impressive. My office has two large windows, and they were not an issue whatsoever. I thought this would affect the picture quality, but I was pleased that this was not the case. Speaking of visuals, the OLED screen is beautiful to look at right out of the box. The colors are vibrant, the whites are bright, and the blacks are silky dark. The contrast is deep as well. Nevertheless, I spent a very long time tweaking the picture. I am glad that this monitor can keep some profiles as my settings would change depending on the content. 4k-HDR content simply looks eye-popping. I mainly work on one monitor and play content on the other, and I am so impressed by the viewing angles. Even at ridiculous angles I can see the picture clearly. The AI mostly handles resolution upscaling, which is nice, but sometimes can be noticed and be a bit distracting, especially when a lot of movement is happening or when highly contrast pictures are flashing at lower resolutions. I still appreciate it though. When it comes to gaming, I was also quite satisfied. The 240Hz makes navigating buttery smooth. There are not a lot of games that take advantage of HDR on PC, but the ones that did looked amazing. To appreciate the 4K-HDR resolution, you must have a high-end PC. Even with my custom build I barely went above 60fps on 4K on triple-A titles, but lowering the res to 1440p, they ran much better at higher frame rates and response times while still looking amazing. The Freesync support was the icing on the cake. Hooking up a 4K capable console using the included 2.1 HDMI cable fully takes advantage of the monitor’s capability and is a joy to play. The gaming hub is a decent feature as I can stream games on my fast internet and the games looked great with the AI upscaling. I also appreciate the dynamic cooling system which prevents overheating. There is an AI brightness adjustment when a static logo or menus to prevent screen burn-in. In addition, there is a screen saver when the screen is not playing anything. Lastly, the audio is good. It is loud and clear. However, it is lacking bass, so a sound system or headset would be highly recommended. Yes, this monitor does have a premium price tag, but in my opinion, it is totally worth it. I’d say check it out and you won’t be disappointed.

    Gorgeous gaming monitor with streaming features

    This monitor is packed with features and is gorgeous to look at. It is not quite perfect, however. First of all, as a gaming monitor which is of course the primary function and intent, it is phenomenal. Color reproduction is flawless, black levels are perfect, refresh rate is stunning. With a proper GPU you can push up to 240hz and never see a single tear in the frames. I have a 4070 Super and have been playing Starfield a lot lately. At 4k and on ultra settings it is buttery smooth and looks incredible. A game like that really takes advantage of the HDR and OLED qualities with all the black of space and the varied lighting on different planets. It really is stunning. On the other end of the gaming spectrum, I’ve also spent a lot of time with Cities Skylines II which involves a massive number of small details that are truly brought to life on the 4K resolution. The semi-matte finish is unobtrusive and does a great job dispersing light and reducing glare. In fact, this is one of the only screens I have that has virtually no glare whatsoever. The backside has an RGB light ring around the VESA 100x100 mounting point that can be customized in the settings to many different color options and schemes, and the body itself is a very thin high-quality metal. It includes an ultra high-speed HDMI cable, DP 1.4 cable, USB upstream cable, an unfortunately large glossy white power brick, and a full motion stand that is also a metal construction allowing for easy tilting, height, and rotation adjustments. I use a desk mount arm for it and since it is fairly lightweight it was an easy install. One of the most unique features it has is the ability to function like a TV set with a Bluetooth remote and built in wifi with streaming app support on the Tizen OS. It works great once you can get a Samsung account setup which for some reason is required to use any of the streaming apps. Doing so should be pretty easy, but it took me half a dozen tries just to get the email verification step to properly complete and was so frustrating I initially gave up entirely. A few hours later I tried again and somehow got it working which allowed me to get into my streaming apps and sign into each one. It’s a bit of a gimmick particularly since the built in speakers are subpar, but the remote can be pretty handy for navigating the various settings screens and changing inputs quickly. Whenever no motion from a mouse or input is detected, it quickly goes into a screen saver mode to protect itself from burn-in and resumes just as quickly once you want to get going again which adds an additional layer of comfort for keeping that OLED screen looking great. If you want an absolutely beautiful, responsive 4K screen for your gaming delights and have a desire to watch TV afterwards then this is the one you’ve been looking for. Requiring a Samsung login to use any additional apps is a bizarre and frustrating choice that tarnishes the experience a bit but it’s still a gorgeous screen and that fact more than makes up for that shortcoming.
