    Very nice 5K2K monitor. My GeForce RTX 5080 rocks with this resolution and everything looks crisp and clear. Great monitor to have. With the resolution this monitor should last me five years at least.

    Every year, seems like Samsung has been producing better monitors geared to Gaming and productivity and this year is no different. I have had my older Samsung curved 32" monitor for several years now and when I was given an opportunity to upgrade to a 40" screen, I jumped on it. Here are a few things I wanted to share with those who are looking to get this monitor. So this is 40" Odyssey G75F WUHD 180Hz 1ms AMD FreeSync Prem Pro Curved Gaming Monitor with HDR 600 - I am sure all this tech wording may make someone pretty confused. Let's unpack it some. First of all, since it is a bigger display, it comes in a big box, well protected. The assembly is pretty straightforward and easy - attach the arm to the main display and to the base stand and you are done. This gaming monitor packs a very nice VA panel, which simply means it a type of LCD display known for its high contrast ratio, that can produce nice blacks and excellent images, making it ideal for gaming and content watching. It is also a Curved display which again aims to envelope you as a gamer and help you immerse into its graphics. Monitor: I like the size of this model as at 40" it is still not too huge and does not take a ton of space on my desk. All the connections are conveniently located on the back of the LCD, you got your usual DisplayPort 1.4 and two HDMI 2.1 ports (it also has a headphone input, and 2 USB-A connections). It is a 4K resolution monitor that can output at 5120X2160 with Refresh rate of 180 Hz which made my gaming experience smoother. My PC games as well as PS5 games were vibrant and uniform however HDR was a bit on a weaker side (I am sure if it was one of their OLED models, it would have been perfect). Interestingly, you can mount this monitor on the wall if you want to, I have seen it done before as it completely frees your desk space, I am glad this feature is available as I might consider mounting it on a swivel bracket. One negative is - it is a bit pricey, and I am sure the price will go down later on as this is a new model. There are other Samsung OLED models in this category that are similarly priced. If you are looking for a good monitor with a Curved screen, this would be the one to consider. It has all the bells and whistles to output a beautiful 4K image, smooth gaming which will result in your enjoyment at the end of the day.

    Unusable with HDMI on a laptop. This monitor looked fantastic when connected via display port or to a powerful PC. But when connecting it to an average laptop, then I couldn't get the full 4k resolution and had to downgrade it to 1440p and a stretched screen. But also, even after I messed with the display settings, I wasn't able to get a full screen in windows again. There was always this black border around the windows OS. But when connected to a capable PC, then everything looked good.

    A really good all-rounder

    So far, I've really liked what I've seen from this monitor. The button controls are nice - there's actually multiple buttons to press rather than just some weird joystick thing. The inputs on the back are positioned really well for fiddling with, and aren't in some weird cramped position. The stand has good range of motion, and feels sturdy enough to handle the panel. It's nice to look at, and I haven't really had any connection issues or technical problems with it. I appreciate the multiple inputs as well - I haven't needed this feature in a long time as I currently have my productivity computers hooked up in other places, but it is really nice to have the option to plug other things in without having to unplug my gaming desktop. The menu is pretty functional and easy to navigate, and the software on the monitor stays out of my way and doesn't feel obtrusive. It wakes up from sleep quick enough that, for example, I don't end up missing BIOS prompts on my computer when booting. As for the panel itself. It's very large. It's like having dual monitors without the "dual" part. There's so much space for multitasking on this screen. As far as gaming goes, it's got a pretty respectable refresh rate (especially for such a high resolution) and I haven't had any issues with latency or anything. It being wide 4K rather than 1080p or something is also really nice - it can be demanding on your GPU to crank up the settings to take full advantage of this monitor but if you've got powerful enough hardware you can make things look *really* good on here. Admittedly, even the Windows desktop just kind of generally looks really good and crisp in 4K. I've tried many games from old titles like Borderlands 2 to modern titles like Stellar Blade, and I've done a variety of heavy multitasking on this monitor. I've never once had issues with the image quality, so overall I'm pretty pleased with that. I kind of also like the curve on this panel - usually I feel like it's a silly gimmick, but in this case the monitor was wide enough that I feel like it actually is useful, and it does follow a good arc. After some time sitting in front of this monitor, it did start to feel pretty natural. Though, I did notice that the monitor heavily encouraged me to sit exactly in front of it, as it looked really off if I sat off-centered or at odd angles. This isn't an issue I have with other monitors, however, I'm not too upset about it since the stand has enough freedom of movement to allow me to easily adjust it so I'm looking at it head-on. It moves with very little effort, too - I don't have to apply a lot of force to adjust the screen. Overall, I've found this to be a fantastic addition to my gaming setup. I don't think I've found any flaws that particularly annoy me, and while it's not the perfect monitor I wouldn't consider any of the flaws I've seen to be fatal. I'd highly recommend it either for gamers with powerful computers, or for people who want the multitasking ability of two monitors but hate dealing with that sort of added complexity.

    Ive been on the fence for awhile about curved displays. Expecially when they were so popular as TV's. I didnt see the advantage or reason until now. Now that its used as my gaming and PC monitor I “get it” now. First off the build is amazing. It just looks like something off of a starship. And it being 40” I see no reason to have to run multiple monitors anymore. It elegantly wraps around the desk and immerses you in like no other has for me. I do wish it was an OLED like my main TV is. But its not far off. The colors and blacks look great. And at 180Hz the performance is tops. It easily handles all I throw at it and asks for more! And with 1ms response time you will never have any sort of input lag at all. It has plenty of ports to connect your PC and gaming consoles. One extra HDMI would have been nice. But I have an auto HDMI switcher that works well so thats not a big issue. The picture quality is very good as well. Ive been spoiled by the black levels of OLED but its not a deal breaker. It has some of the best graphics Ive seen. Overall I am absolutely loving this monitor. The way you just fall in and get immersed is amazing. I now get why this was a fad for TV's years ago. But with a monitor it actually makes sense. Love it.

    Impressively Massive and Feature-Rich

    |

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

    To begin, I was thoroughly impressed with this screen from the moment I turned it on. To begin, the screen is massive at 40" diagonal. What makes the experience even better, though, is the curved display. The curve is not as subtle as I would have thought initially, but it works well given the overall size of the screen. Unlike my previous monitor, I was able to set this one back a little further on my desk, yet still feel "enveloped" by it. When flanked by a couple vertical (portrait) monitors on both sides, my workstation is impressive with plenty of screen real estate for everything I need to do. (While I am a gamer, I also use my computer for work and productivity.) The controls of the monitor are within easy reach on the underside of the monitor. The push buttons are intuitive and easy to use. One minor annoyance is that I am using a VESA arm with my desk, as opposed to the stand that was included with the monitor, and when I push any of the buttons, the monitor does wobble a bit because a firm push is required. I am not sure if there is any solution for this, however, as the pressure required to push the buttons is, in my opinion, about right (without being too stiff or soft/mushy). I do appreciate the location of the controls as well. They are in easy reach, as opposed to some monitors where I have to reach around the side or the back (which would be a problem for me given that I have additional monitors on both sides of the screen). The bezels of the monitor are a little wide compared to some other monitors I have seen, but that is not a big deal to me as a "seamless" transition between my multiple screens is not critical. (When gaming, I use this screen as my primary and only monitor; I do not extend the displays. Given the 40" of real estate with this monitor, there really is no reason to extend the display.) The monitor has a few inputs including 2 HDMI and 1 DisplayPort. One feature that would have been nice is a Thunderbolt/USB-C port that would support video and laptop charging (preferably at 90 to 100 Watts). If I want to plug in my laptop, I need to use a bulky HDMI cable and still need a separate cable to charge my laptop at the same time. Given that this is designed to be a gaming monitor, I understand why such a feature was not a design priority. Still, it would have been nice. The monitor was packed safely and securely within the box and installation of the included stand is relatively easy and straightforward. The stand allows for some vertical (up/down) adjustment of the monitor, along with a reasonable degree of tilt. A DisplayPort and an HDMI cable were included in the box. One omission I noticed is that there were no screws included with the monitor to accommodate a separate VESA mount. (Most mounts do come with screws, so it was not a huge deal. Would have been a nice inclusion, however, especially when repurposing a mount. There is no guarantee that the previously used screws are appropriate for this screen.) The monitor does not have any speakers, which is okay. Again, this is a gaming monitor and most gamers would prefer a stand alone speaker system (or wear headphones). The resolution and refresh rate of the monitor is impressive and, personally, I found myself actually not using the full resolution because the resultant text was too small. One thing I did notice is the flat finish of the screen is somewhat of a contrast to the other monitors I am using that have a glossy finish. My wallpaper appears "dull" in comparison to the adjacent screens as a result. (I am guessing I would never have noticed this if I was using this screen on its own.) The firmware of the monitor also includes a "picture-in-picture" option that is customizable. Side-by-side is an option, along with true picture-in-picture. When using picture-in-picture, the location can be changed to any one of the corners of the screen, and there are a few size settings available as well. The monitor also includes some gaming options within its firmware, such as a virtual aim point, adaptive-sync, and black equalizer. There is also an LED on the back of the monitor that can be turned on or off (with a few preset customized color settings). Overall, while I have some minor suggestions for improvement, this monitor does check a lot of boxes and, for my use, the 40" curved screen with 180 Hz refresh rate, 1 ms response time, and HDR support are light years above my previous monitor. I have to say... I am pretty happy with this monitor.

    Samsung is one of the leaders in the display market. They have been making displays for phones, TVs, and monitors for a very long time. I believe they are leading the market in balancing affordability with quality. The Odyssey G75F is Samsung’s latest ultra-wide 40 in gaming monitor, and it does not disappoint. Starting off with the design, this is curved monitor with a 1000R curve which is a large curve. It makes the screen feel like it is wrapping around you. Although I do not currently have a simulator, I believe this would be the perfect monitor for someone running a simulator. The stand is an ergonomic stand which allows you to easily adjust the screen in any direction and make it taller or shorter. The screen adjusts easily without pressing any extra buttons. The back of the monitor has RGB lighting which projects your game's on-screen colors into the real world with what Samsung claims to be 16.7 million different colors. You are probably most interested in the screen itself. Samsung has included a 40 in wide ultra-HD 5K x 2K screen. This ultra-high resolution will allow you to view games, and movies in the most realistic way possible. The display includes DisplayHDR 600 which has deeper blacks and brighter whites. This makes the colors look more realistic than ever with more contrast. It has a 180 hz refresh rate with 1ms response time. This allows you to play video games without experiencing lag. One of the reasons I have been hesitant to switch to a large, curved monitor rather than two side by side monitors, is having enough real estate for multitasking. The Odyssey G75F includes picture in picture which allows for split screen that can pull from two different inputs. This is great for having your game on one side and then pulling up chats/videos on a secondary side of the screen. This monitor also has auto switch for your sources. Meaning it will detect which source is on if you have more than one computer/system plugged into it. The Odyssey G75F is a must have for gamers, content creators, streamers, and anyone who wants to get the most out of their productivity. I believe it is the perfect size monitor for someone who is currently running a two-monitor set up. It has the latest technology to make your gaming experience much better.
