Great product less than great service
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I love the screen but was told that I could use the full screen with my Xbox when I can only effectively use half because it doesn’t support the aspect ratio.

Nicely curved
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Loving it. The curve is not as aggressive as my previous ultra wide, my only complaint is the size of the power brick, makes it difficult to canle manage but found a mount that holds it Behind the monitor

Looks great, but experienced issues
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I had to return this monitor, due to what appeared to be a defective HDMI port. I've read there can be reliability issues. For the price, I want something that just works, and it should work for a long time.

Great monitor but mine was defective
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Would give it 5 stars but my monitor screen detached on the bottom right corner. After an hour with Samsung support they wanted me to mail it then said someone will fix here. Nobody followed up. BestBuy of course does nothing as it’s over 30 days

Superb Monitor, Great Gaming Experience
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The Samsung G93SD monitor makes for an excellent gaming experience. It has a more than generous ultra wide 49-inch curved display screen, with razor-thin bezels and an super thin casing. This monitor is just SO thin, it practically disappears when viewing it from the sides. It is a nice silver color with a sturdy height-adjustable stand, and it can both tilt and swivel as well. The base is wide and flat and not bulky at all, so it does not take up any additional space on your table or desk (you can comfortably place items on top of the flat base). Assembly was quick and super easy, with no tools needed whatsoever. Just put together the two-part base, then attach to the monitor/screen (it clicks into place) and boom—done. (It is also VESA compatible to mount on a wall if you so desire.) I tried out the HDMI port and Display Port connections, both individually and together via utilization of the picture-by-picture feature. Either way the output was excellent. The OLED display had incredible rich colors and deep inky blacks, with crystal clear images. Oh, and this monitor has a glare-free screen that really helps when gaming, along with its 4K resolution and high 240Hz refresh rate. It all equals a superb response time with minimal to no lag or tearing. And Samsung also has a 36 month/3 year warranty labor period and warranty parts period on this monitor as well. All in all, a good solid choice for a serious gamer or really for any gamer, and/or for anyone who would like to utilize multiple screens in one convenient monitor.

Spectacular display – some things to keep in mind
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This Samsung G9 ultrawide display is nothing short of truly spectacular. From the vastness of the 49” wide angle aspect ratio to the incredible deep blacks and contrast that an OLED screen provides, it is a total joy to use. It doesn’t hurt that the industrial design and build quality are also both first rate. Furthermore, the QHD 1440p resolution provides great clarity for work or gaming and allows you to use GPU power for better rendering quality and a wide field of view vs. the usually pointless extra resolution of a typical 4K display. I use mine for work during the day, where I can lay out wide spreadsheets and documents side by side, and play in the evening where the fast response time, wide aspect, and incredible color quality make it a brilliant companion for any game. I’ve played everything from city builders to shooters and sims and it’s handled them all beautifully. Pros: - Sharp, beautiful, wide aspect display with the incredible color and contrast depth possible with an OLED display. - Fast refresh rates (as high as 240Hz, although I was happy with 120Hz) and Adaptive Sync mean no ghosting or tearing in games and video. - Equally incredible for productivity and for gaming. - Excellent off-axis visibility and gentle curve make for comfortable viewing despite the wide angle. - Supports NVIDIA G-Sync. - Attractive design and construction. - Supports a wide variety of display adjustments, including blue light reduction, low latency gaming modes, A/V optimized modes, etc. The video processor does an excellent job of translating the input signal into smooth, tear-free video. - Solid HDR support that looks good in both desktop and gaming modes. - No “smart TV” apps, menus, or other software clutter – just a monitor with a super fast image processor and a simple on-screen menu that doesn’t even require a remote. - 2 x HDMI and 1x DisplayPort connections (one HDMI is micro) + multiple USB-C ports built in. The monitor can be set to automatically switch between sources or not. - The display can automatically scale to the correct aspect ratio for signals that don’t run the full native width, providing good support for games which don’t support 5120x1440 resolution. The result in these cases is totally black side bars. - Multi-color LED lighting on the back for added (and optional) ambience. Things to keep in mind: - OLED displays are all potentially subject to burn in, especially with desktop computing use where icons and task bars are relatively static. Samsung has addressed this in multiple ways, but it’s something to keep in mind. - This display is VERY big. Measure your work area to make sure the ~ 4 foot width will work in your setting. - The native resolution of 5120 x 1440 may not be supported by all graphics cards, especially those in laptops. My two-year-old Surface Pro 9 drives it just fine, but I advise checking your system specs just in case. You can use a lower resolution, but will lose some of the scale, clarity, or both. - You need a 4K or 8K HMDI or DisplayPort cable to support the native resolution. A good quality cable is important for combining high resolution with high refresh rates. Cons: - This display will spoil you for life, making anything else seem small and dull in comparison. You’ve been warned. I absolutely love this display. Samsung have done a great job of making something truly special for enthusiasts. My only fear is that burn in may eventually diminish the experience, but aside from this concern and the need for enough space and computing power to make use of it, this is a display that should make anybody short of people needing professional reference displays extremely happy.

Amazing for flight sim and even a little work!
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It sounds enormous, but if you’re already using a dual-monitor setup (with decent sized monitors) it may not take up as much space as you may fear, but it still chews up some space. However, the trade off for not having to split games/applications across two monitors is SO worth it! I love the anti-glare, as my desk is close to a window and I’ve had issues with other monitors in the past. And the colors are amazingly vibrant, especially if you consider that it’s anti-glare. The monitor stand base is flat, which is another plus. Even though it has about a 14”x11” footprint, you don’t really lose that space since you can still set things on the base. Might seem like a small detail, but it makes a big difference. The monitor stand allows for height and tilt adjustments, but you can’t turn the monitor. Although being such a large, curved monitor, I don’t know why you’d really need to turn it. Worst case you just turn the whole base. The vast majority of my ‘gaming’ is MS Flight Simulator, and I can honestly say that this monitor is a game changer. The ultrawide screen is so much more immersive than my old dual-monitor setup. I actually have visibility out both sides of the plane now, without having to pan or snap left/right so much. Colors are great & movement is very smooth. What also surprised me is how great it is for work and video editing. From a work perspective, being able to see so many columns in a spreadsheet is a bonus. No more hiding several columns just so you can see info on a single screen. Works great for Visio documents as well. As far as video editing, if you’ve ever used Adobe Premier, you know how fond they are of having separate little windows for components/functions which can quickly chew up a workspace. Speaking of using it for work, it supports multiple inputs as well as picture-in-picture. You can set PIP up so you can be working & still keep an eye on your personal PC. PIP can be set to one of three modes: halves (two 27” monitors), thirds (one 34” & one 20”), or full with a positionable overlay (one 49” with an 8” overlay). This was probably my biggest concern about making the switch from dual monitors to an ultra wide screen. Turned out to be unfounded. I’d even say it turned out to be an unexpected benefit. I don’t consider this a negative but, if this will be your first venture into a higher-end monitor, you should be aware that it does not have built-in speakers. At the end of the day, I wish I’d have made the jump to an ultra-wide a long time ago. Granted, it seems like a pricey jump, but it’s well worth the investment! Especially if you’re already considering a dual monitor setup.

Great specs, performance and visuals
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The Odyssey OLED G9 is one of the best large monitors I’ve ever used. It has the specs, the performance and the visual quality to wow you. I have large format monitors from LG and Asus, including other 32:9 aspect monitors, and the Samsung G9 is a pleasure to use. This model in particular is sort of odd, seeing as in the G9 lineup they have other models for similar pricing that has the Samsung Game and Smart TV hubs, speakers and a few other extras. While the panel should be the same, if you don’t mind sacrificing some good entertainment options built in, this monitor will not let you down. Packaging is huge as you would expect. Samsung has done a great job of organizing the monitor and stand inside the box so that as you unpack, everything goes in order. Simply remove the base, attached the stand arm, then clip into the monitor and lift. Because of the size and weight you might need two people, just keep that in mind, and I would try and assemble the monitor as close to where you’re going to place it as possible. It is quite heavy with a lot of sturdy metal construction. Powering on and setting up is a breeze. While I would have loved to have a remote control to access the monitor’s menu and settings, everyone will be familiar with the “back of the panel” joystick found here. You can quickly navigate to quick settings, or dive into the menu for all the tweaking you want. The back of the display also has an LED light ring that will bounce the light off the wall behind you and give a nice glow. You can turn this on or off which is also nice. The display itself is gorgeous. Running at 5120x1440 at 240Hz is just buttery smooth. I ran this monitor connected to a couple different Asus PCs with 4060/4070 GPUs and Ryzen 9 chips and also a Macbook Pro with the M1 PRO chip for Productivity. While gaming on the PC, the monitor shines. Deep blacks are the winner here, along with crisp colors and highlights. I myself prefer the 1000R curve instead of the more drastic 1800R curve, and using this monitor is super easy to get used to if you’ve never used a 32:9 wide format before. The high refersh rate and low response time make gaming wonderful. While I don’t know if my eyes can discern 240Hz, it makes visuals come alive and offer super smooth gameplay regardless of what title you’re playing. It also offers a picture in picture mode, so you can watch other content from another connected source while you work or play. For productivity you can’t beat a large format monitor like this. Whether it be Excel sheets, email or SQL tables, you have all the real estate you need to open as many applications windows as you want and spread out the workflow without having to always minimize/maximize windows. It’s a pain when trying to share a screen on meetings, but otherwise it really does allow for more at a glance to get things done quicker. The two downsides for me about this G9 are - that it has the silver finish around the bezel. While the bezels on this G9 are not the thinnest, they are at least black, and with the OLED deep blacks this monitor providers, having a small outline of shiny silver metal around the outside just seems tacky to me in 2025. I wish they would have simply made the front facing frame of the monitor black to match the display, and leave the silver metal finish for the rest. The other is that the inputs are limited to one HDMI and one Display Port. I would have like to see at least one additional HDMI or maybe two of each. Overall, a real winner and a monitor that I’ll have in my daily display setup for work and gaming for sure.

Amazing monitor!
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Once configured and positioned properly, this monitor is amazing! It took some time to tweak the settings to make it work well with darker games, especially if there is light behind me. The monitor does have a glare in very bright light, but it handles light behind the monitor without any issue. The best lighting is either with the blinds closed or at night, with just ambient lighting in the room. If in a really dark room, the eye-saver mode can easily be activated and deactivated to reduce the brightness when not needed. It is wild to have a game take up the entire width of the monitor! The high resolution with such vivid colors, excellent contrast, and an extremely high refresh rate create a spectacular gaming experience! It is so immersive and probably the next best thing from VR. For someone like me who has some challenges with VR, I think this is much more tolerable long term. The only drawback to having a wide monitor like this vs. having multiple individual screens is that the wings of this monitor cannot be adjusted. The user must sit at the correct distance away from the monitor in order to keep the entire width in focus while just turning the head. There is not a lot of flexibility in this, so it is important that you have enough space on your desk to have the freedom to make those adjustments. When using multiple displays, there is the ability to angle each monitor to our desired angle. That is not possible with a wide screen like this. It still comes with a great base that easily slides up and down, but there is no turning the wings in or out. Once perfectly adjusted on my desk, it is impressive. Having a continuous display without any interruptions through the entire field of view is a dream. I tried both HDMI and Display Port connections. For my computer, the HDMI 2.1 connection says it is connecting at 240 Hz compared to 120 Hz for Display Port. Movement is so natural for both connections, compared to my old setup, but that refresh rate really makes a difference. Of course, this only works if a person has a newer video card with the HDMI 2.1 standard. If on an older HDMI standard, Display Port might be the better option. Overall, I am thrilled with this monitor! It is a whole new experience. I would definitely recommend it to a friend as long as they have a setup where the monitor can easily fit on a desk and be adjusted in all directions to find the perfect distance from the screen to the user.
