Great monitor, worth the price
||Posted . Owned for 9 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This monitor has been great for me. I got it originally for play, but had to work the night it arrived. And it was bought almost on a whim and I thought I might return it if it didn’t live up to the hype. But I was amazed how good it was for work right away, which sold me. I work on multiple documents at once (I’m a lawyer so having 4+ docs open side by side is a regular thing) and it is so much better than multiple screens. For games it is awesome. Very immersive with great colors and contrast. I’ve been very pleased with my purchase.

Pretty good if they removed the smart TV stuff
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I've had this monitor for a little over a month and I do love it. I came from the NeoG9 and while it's not as bright, the colors on this monitor are great. I love OLED, I love ultrawide, so it was a no brainer to get this. I can't give it 5 stars though. I just hate they added smart tv functions to this. I think they need to keep that to the monitors that have an aspect ration that would allow comfortable viewing. I like the idea of the remote but there is no actual monitor specific navigation. It feels like Samsung treats this as a TV first instead of a montior. I hope the future iterations leave all this smart stuff to their TV line. Or at least not on their super ultrawides.

Amazing ultra wide experience
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Magic. This screen is pure magic. On paper it’s 2 screens put together, but as a single panel, it’s ridiculous in the best way possible. The sale made this purchase a no brainer. Hard to not use OLED once you’ve used it

Amazing panel, horrible software, go for the G93SC
||Posted . Owned for 8 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This panel is beautiful. I have no complaints regarding the visuals. The reason for the three stars is that the software/OS is terrible. Every time the panel turns on or wakes, it takes 22 seconds for all the different prompts and tips to get out of the way so I can actually use the screen. Why show these every time? Give me an option to say, "Yes, I understand how the screen works, stop showing me this." There are also an unnecessary number of steps to be able to change settings I'm commonly changing, like brightness and pixel shift. And these menus are often quite slow to navigate. I also never plan on using any of the smart TV features built in. I wish the G93SC was available at the time I purchased, which to my understanding does not include any of those "features". Love playing games on this, the real estate for productivity is excellent. Just wish all these prompts would go away, that I could disable the smart TV features, and that I could have quicker access to the Pixel Shift setting.

Great when it works.
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This monitor is great when it works. However I have been having several issues with it. First itnwill randomly go black for a few seconds several times making it almost unusable with gysnc or gaming mode enabled. Whats the point of having that feature if it doesn't work correctly. When Gsync is off the monitor looks fantastic. However it will still randomly go to a black screen but not as bad. I have another computer hooked up to the HDMI and it works flawless. So the issues has to be somthing with the displayport and drivers. I have contacted Samsung to see with they will either fix the issue or replace it.

Well worth it.
||Posted . Owned for 6 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is a lot of screen real estate, colors are brilliant and blacks are deep, gameplay is amazing and crisp, I have seen a few reviews talking about issues of blinking displays, I found out that it was caused by using cheap cables, I replaced my original HDMI cable with a quality 8K cable and all of my issues disappeared, this is an expensive monitor but well worth the price.

Great Real Estate and Colors
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great monitor and a much needed one for me. View is great so are colors. I use this as a work from home monitor as well as personal use, including gaming, webs surfing, and whatever else. I'd say my biggest two gripes are that there is only 1 Display Port, which isn't ideal for my specific use case (juggling between home and work use) and sometimes the cable connection isn't established, so I need to dis/reconnect the DP in my computer. These aren't crazy but inconvenient for sure.

Excellent Monitor for about $1k
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This monitor is fantastic. It’s huge, but taking it out of the box was pretty easy going. As a monitor, it does just fine, but it is very wide so a big desk is needed. Also, not all games or content supports this resolution so be warned, to do some tinkering in some games. Also, when playing games windowed because the game does not support full screen properly, be sure to set the sides to black to prevent burn in if you are in a long gaming session. It’s too new for me to see issues with burn in, but the pixel shift and refresh should keep it in good shape. The other thing is the Samsung TV plus, which is basically free cable. It connects via Wi-Fi. I have a mesh network, but the streaming was not always fluid. Also, it does not take up the full screen, but is centered. Overall, the apps are a nice addition. I have not tried all the features yet, but Flight simulator and Assasin’s creed origins look great on it.

Really good picture, terrible built in software
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This monitor is beautiful, but the smart features are REALLY annoying. What happened to just being able to plug in a monitor and play without setting up accounts or getting notifications?

Awesome!
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great monitor! Awesome graphics, vibrant colors! Do NOT regret this purchase. Only flaw is the bottom left part of the screen has somehow come out of the “housing” holding it in place. Good thing i have the Best Buy protection plan!

QD-Oled is next level
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.QD-oled is the next level. I had no issues with the QC for this G9. Coming from a VA panel the G9 was breath taking. I did not find any issues with 32:9. Even with a game like Diablo 4 the deep black on sides makes it unnoticeable in my opinion. I would highly recommend the G9.

Stunning, so far
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I know what I was getting into picking up this monitor. A beautiful but limited lifespan. OLEDs are known for getting horrific burn-in and image retention. Thats why I have BestBuy total to replace it when it inevitably dies. Until then, its been well worth the money. Visually stunning, and the speakers aren’t half bad, but they aren’t why anyone is purchasing this monitor. I did have a weird flickering issue with the monitor when using a display cable. Using a HDMI 2.1 completely solved this issue. Do yourself a favor and use a HDMI 2.1 cable. Only with an HDMI cable can you reach the advertised 240hz. The display cable can only do 120hz.
