Customer Ratings & Reviews

Amazing, it is a lot more immersive than I expected with the heavy curve

Great monitor! Incredible display and refresh rate works great for all games.

I have a need for a big screen, but have a small desk to work with. This fit the needs quite well. My only complain is that there is quite a bit of glare that comes off the screen when the room is well lit.

Amazing monitor, great for gaming and production. Daily drive this monitor for work. The PIP allows for seamless split screen.

Very nice monitor. Using it for work and Gaming. Works wonderful.

Great monitor with great specs and very reliable and long term used.

In March 2024, I bought my son a Samsung Odyssey 49” G9 monitor, model LS49CG954ENXZA. The price with tax, was just under $1,000. It failed a year and nine months later – nine months after the one-year warranty expired. The problem with the monitor, was that when you turn it on you just got a black screen. No on screen display no nothing, except the backlight. Windows recognized that the monitor was there. Doing a Google search for “Samsung Odyssey 49” G9 turns on but only black screen” brings up a whole raft of threads on the problem. Dozens and dozens of threads, with hundreds and hundreds of posts on the very exact same problem. Apparently, the problem traces back to Samsung’s use of a thermistor in providing overheating protection. The problems began to surface as early as 2020 and at that time, Samsung was offering a three year warranty with the product. Apparently, when the many problems with the thermistor began to surface, Samsung quietly changed the warranty to one year. On a Reddit post, a person described how in 2022, he submitted a warranty claim to Samsung and they rejected it because they had changed the warranty period to one year. The person described how, using the Internet archive, he was able to find the original webpage which spelled out the three year warranty and using that, he was able to get Samsung to honor the warranty claim. Do a Google search for Samsung Odyssey Q9 three year warranty to find that Reddit thread. Many people have found that by removing the thermistor, it solves the problem. Unfortunately, my son’s Q9 monitor has a different T-con board and we were unable to find the thermistor. So basically, my son’s $1,000 monitor is unrepairable junk. As I said, there are hundreds and hundreds of videos online describing this problem. Samsung’s action, in shortening the warranty is unconscionable. Clearly, this is a design problem or a problem caused by faulty parts. A responsible business would admit that they screwed up and make it right with the customers. I will never buy another Samsung product, ever.

This was an excellent purchase for my usage. I use it for work and school. It also takes up less space than my 2 screens combined.

Was replacing dual 27” monitor setup and couldn’t be happier. The resolution and brightness make this an easier monitor to recommend.

Exceptional viewing! Size is awesome for multiple windows open at same time.

Superb for gaming- large viewing area and fast refresh rate

Great monitor for gaming - stretched effect doesn’t lend itself to games which cannot support the resolution, same if you are watching movies. Split screen option solves much of that

I love the pip ans pbp it allows me to use this monitor with 2 computers orvside by side display for computer

Good size, increases productivity. Love the side by side (PIP) mode

Excellent monitor for playing PC games and using as a multi desktop screen.

The view is better, plus it has better resolution and hertz than my old curved monitor!

Bought this from one of the outlet stores and I love it. Works great and helps with working from home.

Love this monitor. Beautiful picture and the curve profile is immersive. Very easy setup too

I was extremely impressed with the brilliant pixel quality and clarity that Odyssey 49" Curve Gaming Monitor provides. Multitasking multiple screens on one has increased productivity to turnover projects more seemingly

I love the monitor, the colors really pop on it! I’m able to play my Xbox series X on it but have to use the pip mode. I have a Samsung G 7 to get the 4K at 120hrtz so it’s not a deal breaker, it does 1440 at 120hrtz or 4K at 60hrtz. I use it for my software mainly so don’t need to use multiple screens. Over all I’m happy with it and it serves my purpose for why I purchased it. You will have to do a little research to set it up the way you want but it’s not too difficult.
