Customer Ratings & Reviews

This is a great monitor for someone that enjoys an immersive gaming experience and has enough space on their desk. This monitor takes up a fair amount more space than you might expect; it has about a foot of depth to it, from the back of the stand to the front edge of the display, so keep this in mind when looking. The unboxing is pretty straightforward and easy, with no awkward maneuvering to get the stand attached to the monitor, and the setup is toolless as well. Speaking of the included stand, it is great! I do wish it had some pivot to make plugging cables in easier, but the completely flat base is amazing. It’s slim enough to still be usable desk space, or you can simply put a desk pad over it to hide it altogether. The picture quality is truly great, with quite a bit of brightness that makes colors pop in HDR. The black levels are also better than expected, which contributes to the decent HDR performance. However, there are times when the local dimming zones are noticeable, particularly in darker scenes with small, bright elements. I'd also highly recommend disabling the "contrast enhancer" setting, as it can sometimes create an unnatural, flat look. Since the monitor is 4K UHD, it can be pretty difficult to drive in many modern games. You'll likely need a very powerful graphics card to achieve stable frame rates at the highest settings, so be prepared for some compromises in your graphics settings if your hardware isn't top-tier. On the connectivity front, while I understand this is primarily a gaming monitor, I would have liked to see a USB-C input for added versatility. The power supply is also a point of note; it is pretty large, so you'll want to plan for that when it comes to your desk setup. A small positive, though, is that Samsung used a 90-degree connector, which allows the cable to run in either direction on the power supply, which I found pretty thoughtful. One of the more frustrating quirks I've noticed is that the monitor takes an abnormally long time to wake up compared to any other monitor I've used. It's a minor inconvenience, but it's something to be aware of if you frequently put your PC to sleep. I have also noticed the occasional flicker when gaming with variable refresh rate enabled, but this was rare, and hardly noticeable. Overall, despite a few minor drawbacks, this is a very solid choice for a high-end gaming setup.

This 37” 4K monitor is hitting the sweet spot for me as a gaming monitor and in daily productivity use. This monitor is large and requires a somewhat deep desk. I’m using it on a 24” depth desk that is 60” long. It takes up more space front to back than I thought it would, but is completely worth it. The stand is easy to put on the monitor and adjustments are simple. The stand also keeps the monitor very sturdy. There are 2 HDM 2.1 ports, and 1 DisplayPort 1.4 port. The ports face out on the back of the monitor, making it easy to attach cables. There is also a USB B port and a USB A port. The 3840x2160 resolution at this size has several advantages. If your gaming device can output it, you can get full 4K at a 165Hz refresh rate (I believe you need to use the DisplayPort 1.4 connection to achieve this). As a daily use monitor, you can increase the size of screen elements. The native 4K resolution works well with MacOS and Windows, but items are just a bit too small for my liking. I can change the resolution and then still fit more on the screen than a 1440p monitor. At 37” this makes a very pleasing setup for my eyes. No strain at the end of the day. While on paper this might not be the brightest panel, in use is is more than bright enough. Also, in HDR content is can go up to 600 from 300. The 1000R curve is great for immersion into gameplay. Off angle viewing is not the best, but a curved monitor like this is meant to be viewed straight on. Gaming is a joy and I like the different modes (eco for working for example). It has AMD FreeSync which eliminates screen tearing, a super fast response time to eliminate ghosting, and the 165Hz refresh rate to keep things smooth. This is a large monitor and a unique screen size, that hits all of the right notes for gaming and daily use.

Ordered and took my money and got a tracking number. Didn’t appear shipper ever picked it up. Over a week or so I got several “shipment delayed” messages and then ordered was cancelled by Best Buy with no notice or explanation. Never buying from BB online again.

First off, this thing is huge (at least compared to the displays I normally use). Part of the size comes from the curved display which makes the box that holds it during shipping seem so much larger. The box weighs a lot as well. That being said I discovered during un-boxing that almost 80% of the weight comes from the included stand. That part weighs a lot, and I would say such a sturdy stand is needed for you using it on your desktop. Ok, now that stuff is out of the way I want to say this display is amazing. Color reproduction is outstanding, there is no image blur when either play games or watching video. It's pixel dense which means everything is ultra sharp. The refresh rate is amazing, even at a full 4k resolution which makes scrolling through large web sites or ultra large documents look even better with no blurring. When gaming as I said it's ultra sharp with no blur or missed frames at all. Watching a full screen 4k movie is simply stunning. I do not think I could go back to a smaller display. Again, and I cannot say this enough, this is simply a stunning display.

This is a top-of-the-line 4K gaming monitor. The box is huge and is definitely a two-person job of getting it out of the box. Assembling the stand is super easy and no tools are required. The size is perfect for an immersive gaming experience or eye-popping movie experiences. The curved monitor helps to give it a little more room to fit on smaller desk. You have the option of connecting it via HDMI or Display Port. I highly recommend Display Port to get the full benefit of the high refresh rate. Fast motion was smooth connected to my gaming PC and running in full 4K. I tested connecting to my Switch 2 as well, running in 1440p and 120hz refresh rate. Both looked great and rain flawless. I really like the fact that I can have my PC and consoles connected at the same time and it auto switches the input based upon which devices are powered on. This is the best of all features to get the optimal 4K experience on PC or gaming consoles. The only negative is there are no built-in speakers, but a headset can easily be connected or a soundbar can be added.

OVERALL A very powerful high-end 4K gaming monitor. The Samsung Odyssey G7 G75F is a 37-inch 4K 165Hz curved gaming monitor with a 1000R curvature, offering an immersive experience and more screen area compared to smaller monitors. It features a VA panel, a 1ms GtG response time, and 4K UHD resolution, 3840×2160. One notable area that set itself apart for me, from many monitors before it is the sheer size of the packaging. The monitor features a 16:9 4K VA panel with a matte finish, minimizing reflections. Setup is quick and easy, with no additional tools required. While it lacks some modern features like PIP/PBP and has less vibrant colors compared to newer panel technologies, it delivers a highly immersive gaming experience. Access to the rear IO panel is made incredibly simple, when compared with traditional monitors. It includes two HDMI 2.1 ports and a DisplayPort, offering a good mix of connectivity. No built-in speakers which means users need to use external audio solutions like a soundbar or desktop speakers. Firmware updates must be done manually via a USB port on the rear. Colors are less vibrant compared to mini-LED and OLED panels, but contrast and black levels are strong. The curved design helps compensate for the narrow viewing angles typically associated with VA panels. The biggest deterrent for any would be buyers is the premium price point. *** Highlights *** FEATURES - 37-inch 1000R curved 4K VA panel - Matte finish reduces reflections - Two HDMI 2.1 ports and one DisplayPort - Impressive text clarity PERFORMANCE - 1ms GtG response time - 165Hz refresh rate provide good visual fidelity - Excellent brightness and black levels CONS - No PIP/PBP (which is apparently present in the 40" model) - No built-in speakers - Firmware updates are manual - Less vibrant colors compared to mini-LED and OLED - The premium price may be a barrier for some users CONCLUSION The Samsung Odyssey G75F is a top-tier, feature-rich gaming monitor with a curved VA panel, strong contrast, and a 165Hz refresh rate. While it lacks some modern features like PIP/PBP and has less vibrant colors, it remains a valid option for gamers who prioritize immersion and image quality over the latest panel technologies. However, its large size and high price may limit its appeal to a broader audience. This is worth 5-stars.

After a few days of trying to use this as my general purpose monitor I discovered that its too large for this purpose. I have a dedicated gaming rig for playing racing simulation games and I think this monitor is a perfect fit. The curve of this monitor is amazing for immersing yourself in the sim and only in this scenario have I wished it to be a bit bigger. I did not think I would be excited about the monitor stand, but this stand allows horizontal and vertical shifting along with tilting and is so easy to shift around that it is magical. Eventually I’ll be moving the monitor from a table to a racing rig and will be VESA mounted, but for now I could not be happier with the flexibility of the stand. To take advantage of most of the technical features included you need to use DisplayPort 1.4, not HDMI. The refresh rates and response times are excellent, my only complaint being that I spend most of my time viewing OLED displays and every LCD I view these days has saturated blacks making me yearn for an OLED in this display configuration. None the less this display does look wonderful for LCD. I appreciate that Samsung kept all the ports in full view on the rear of the display.

Wow. I found myself being much more impressed by this monitor than I had anticipated. Its focus is, of course, on being a killer monitor for gaming. I probably don’t quality as an intense gamer, but I do enjoy my games! And the Samsung - 37" Odyssey G75F provides just what I was looking for - a large and immersive gaming experience on my desktop so I no longer need to use our primary TV screen. The image is clear and bright and responsive. I won’t go into all of the inputs, features or specifications, but I find it has plenty of each. It seems to check all the boxes for serious gamers and has more than what I need. However, I do wish it had 3 HDMI ports instead of just 2, but that’s probably being greedy. Although I was surprised to find that there are no speakers on the G75F, I can’t actually imagine why you’d not want to pair this great monitor with equally great speakers. A particular interest I had when considering the G75F was whether or not I could use it for my normal tasks and work - as well as for gaming. I wondered if the curve would be a bit much when working with emails, documents, keynotes, and videos. Thankfully, I found it to work great for all those uses. This is just what I needed! I’m preparing to move into an office shed we’re putting up on our property and I wanted to see if I could consolidate a couple of my monitors. With the G75F, the answer is “Yes!”. FYI - When unpacking and assembling the monitor, I really liked the way it goes together. You put the sturdy stand together and then attach it to the back of the screen while it’s still in the box. Then you just lift it out of the box with the stand and place it in position. So much easier than trying to hold the monitor while trying to attach the stand (as I’ve had to do with previous monitors). All-in-all, I’m impressed by the G75F for gaming - and for productivity. Highly recommended.

I have ben using the G75F 37" version for a little while now for both productivity and gaming, its a nice monitor but for me I think I will ultimately change back to my dual monitor set-up or an ultrawide. First some technical specs, this is a VA panel with a peak brightness of 350nits, has HDMI 2.1 connection for high refresh rate 4k gaming on modern consoles/PCs, has AMD Premium Pro VRR, overall a massive screen because it retains 16:9 aspect ratio, and has a USB hub. The combination of aspect ratio, HDMI 2.1 connection, and the 4k resolution makes this perfect for those gaming on a console. Its extremely difficult to push high frame rates at native 4k currently, so the inclusion of AMD premium pro VRR is welcomed and is supported by consoles as well as PCs. With the USB hub you can have your PS5 hooked up for games, then plug your laptop in for work or school. To be frank I think the use of a VA panel here is pretty disappointing, although it didn't have a noticably negative impact on my experience. However, for a monitor that is advertising HDR600 gaming, this only has a peak brightness of 350nits so HDR content is mediocre at best and doesn't hold a candle to my MSI OLED. As a result I have been using this primarily for productivity and incorporated it into my laptop docking station for the days I'm working from home. The included stand is nice, the square base ultimately takes up less room versus those monitors that use more of a tripod design with two long legs. Feels very sturdy once set-up, has height, tilt, and swivel right out of the box along with the ability to be mounted on 100x100 VESA mounts. Overall this is a high quality monitor that will do everything you want it to if you are looking for a large format 16:9 display. Those that are used to gaming on TVs will definitely appreciate the picture quality, refresh rate, and input latency decrease you will get going to a monitor like this.

The clarity is excellent, and it is such a nice monitor. The colors are beautiful and very worth the price.
