The monitor has an amazing picture and is great for work of multitasking. Playing games on it feels great. I do feel as though i needed to take away 1 star. The monitor can get a bit hung up when trying to switch things around and you just need to be patient and might need to turn things off and on again to get it to work right. A little annoying for a monitor of this cost. I also wish it wouldve came with a second USB B cord so you dont have to buy a seperate cord for using the onboard USB switching. Also the Display cord that is included is too short to be of much use. Lastly DO NOT rely on Samsung for warranty or service and just get geeksquad, i havent had any issues yet but i have heard a lot of things and I have dealt with Samsung support in the past and they are AWFUL.

The Samsung Odyssey G9 57" is an extraordinary monitor that truly pushes the boundaries of immersive gaming and professional multitasking. Its colossal 57-inch screen with a sharp, vibrant display offers a remarkable field of view, ensuring that every detail is visible in stunning clarity. The curvature of the monitor is expertly designed, providing a panoramic experience that envelops you in any activity, be it gaming or working on complex projects.
For gamers, the Odyssey G9 is a dream come true. Its high refresh rate and quick response time make for silky-smooth gameplay, and the colors are vivid and accurate, enhancing the overall gaming atmosphere. Professionals will appreciate the vast screen real estate which allows for multiple windows and applications to be open simultaneously, boosting productivity.
However, it's not without its drawbacks. The Odyssey G9 lacks smart features such as the Tizen operating system, which is found in some of Samsung's other products. This omission means that users might miss out on some convenient smart functionalities that could enhance the user experience.
Despite this, the Samsung Odyssey G9 57" remains an exceptional choice for anyone seeking a large, high-performance monitor. Its strengths far outweigh its limitations, making it a highly recommended product for both gamers and professionals alike. Its ability to transform both work and play into immersive and engaging experiences is truly unparalleled.

I have to say that this monitor is incredible. I'm not a gamer and I bought this purely for productivity so I probably don't need many of the specs that will draw in the gamers, but I must say that this monitor takes multi-tasking to next level. I work in the financial sector with massive spreadsheets and can take advantage of the full screen width at times or divide desktop space into sectors to have multiple apps available at a glance. Paired with my additional 32" monitors on each side and this has dramatically made an impact on my productivity and overall efficiency. I couldn't be more happier with this purchase!

The picture quality is simply stunning with vibrant colors and crisp clarity that truly brings my games and content to life. The ultrawide screen offers an immersive experience, especially for gaming and multitasking. The 57-inch display gives me more than enough room to have multiple windows open side-by-side, making productivity a breeze.
The refresh rate is fantastic, providing smooth and lag-free performance that enhances both work and play. And with the sleek design, it looks amazing on my setup. Samsung really nailed it with this monitor; it’s a perfect balance of functionality and beauty. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a top-notch viewing experience!

The Samsung Neo G9 57-inch monitor is nothing short of spectacular! The ultra-wide screen feels like stepping into another world, offering an unmatched field of view that’s perfect for immersive gaming and multitasking. The 240Hz refresh rate and Quantum Mini LED technology make every detail pop with stunning clarity and vivid colors. It’s like having two monitors in one, but without the annoying bezel in the middle. Setup was a breeze, and the picture quality is breathtaking whether I'm gaming, working, or watching movies. It’s a premium investment, but the experience is worth every cent!

I recently purchased a Samsung monitor from Best Buy, and I am beyond impressed with the quality and performance. The picture is incredibly sharp, vibrant, and crystal-clear—the colors absolutely pop, and the details are breathtaking.
Setup was quick and easy, and the Best Buy’s staff were knowledgeable and helpful, making the buying process seamless and stress-free.

The Samsung 57” Odyssey Neo G9 is hands down the best monitor I’ve ever used. The sheer size and incredible clarity of the screen make a huge difference every single day. Colors are vibrant, text is razor-sharp, and the brightness levels are on another level compared to anything else out there. Multitasking has become effortless — I can have multiple full-sized windows open side-by-side without feeling cramped or having to constantly switch between tabs. It’s like having two monitors seamlessly built into one ultra-wide display. As a Meta employee, this monitor has completely transformed the way I work. Whether I’m deep into data analysis, project management, or creative brainstorming, everything feels faster, smoother, and more organized. The Odyssey Neo G9 isn’t just an upgrade — it’s an essential tool for anyone serious about maximizing their productivity and working at a higher level.

As a current owner of the Samsung Odyssey 49" Neo G9 (released August 2021), I knew I already liked these series of gaming monitors from Samsung. I decided to upgrade to the Samsung Odyssey 57" Neo G9 as I needed more screen real estate for both work and home usage. I list below, IMO, the pros and cons of this particular gaming monitor,
Pros:
* 59" Screen Size
* PBP
* KVM
* Mini-LED
* I/O (e.g. HDMI 2.1, DP 2.1, et al)
Cons
* Price
* PBP is limited (e.g. refresh rates)
* Nipple (i.e. interface toggle/switch)
I'm sure there are other pros and cons that I forgot to list but those are what I consider the most important at the time of this writing. I purchased this particular gaming monitor on sale for $1799.99 as an fyi.

As someone who's been using the Samsung Odyssey Neo G9 57-inch curved monitor for productivity purposes, I can confidently say it's a game-changer for my workflow. This behemoth of a display has transformed the way I multitask and manage my digital workspace.
## Immersive Workspace
The first thing you'll notice is the sheer size and curvature of this monitor. At 57 inches with a 1000R curve, it's like having two 32-inch 4K monitors seamlessly merged into one. The curve isn't just for show - it actually helps reduce eye strain and makes the entire screen feel more accessible, despite its massive size.
## Unparalleled Screen
the amount of screen real estate is simply staggering. I routinely have 15 or more applications open simultaneously, arranged exactly how I want them. This level of multitasking was previously impossible without multiple monitors or constant window switching.
## Potential Drawbacks
It's not all perfect, though. The aggressive curve can take some getting used to, especially if you're coming from flat monitors. Additionally, the sheer size of this monitor means it takes up a significant amount of desk space and its sheer $$$$
## Final Thoughts
While the Samsung Odyssey Neo G9 57-inch is marketed primarily as a gaming monitor, it's an absolute powerhouse for productivity. The immense screen real estate, combined with the crisp resolution and thoughtful features, makes it an excellent choice for professionals who need to manage multiple windows and applications simultaneously.
However, it's important to note that this monitor is a significant investment, both in terms of cost and space requirements. But if you have the budget and the desk space, the productivity gains can be substantial. After using it for an extended period, I can't imagine going back to a traditional multi-monitor setup.

There's nothing else like it. Your vision being completely wrapped in screen is a stunning experience, but despite it's name as gaming monitor, I've used it for productivity. I edit video and websites for a living and the seamless width of the display makes the job so much easier. Could you get something similar for less by using two monitors? Yes, of course. This is the premium version of that and there's really no other way to describe it. I've got it wall mounted and I love it so much.

Having dual 4K in a single monitor is soo worth it. Not sure how I did without. The monitor was easy to setup. Just make sure you lot can handle 7680x2160 as a single display or dual 3840x2160 up to 240hz

I purchased this to replace a 3 monitor setup that I use to work from home. It took a few days to get adjusted to using the monitor, but now I love it. It’s definitely overkill for productivity usage. I can imagine that it would be great for game play. I’m not a gamer, but my kids are jealous.

This monitor is awesome. I got it mainly for productivity and it works so well. The screen is so good and colors, contrast and blacks are almost oled level quality. You can use 2 inputs or split your screen into multiple zones using soft ware like fancy zones. This is a productivity work beast. Entertainment is also good on this. The only downsides I can think of are the long legs of stand that eats up my desk space. Ther is also the minor hassle of trying to screw in screws of stand to back of monitor. However, this can be achieved with some difficulty. The control menu is a mass8ve let down for a monitor this good. It's clunky and hard to use. Monitor shoukd have had its own remote. Finally, my 4090 gpu can't output 4k at 240hz on this monitor. You can only go on a lesser resolution to hit 249hz. However, I am not bothered as I dont game on it. If you are considering this monitor, plesse dont wait, just go for it. You won't regret it.Also, don't forget to get geek's squad protection. That way you can rest easy. I get to my office each morning, and still stare at this behemoth of beauty in awe. Definitely a great monitor.

I purchased this monitor to replace my stacked 49-inch CRG9 monitors, and I’ve been thoroughly impressed. The Eye Saver mode is outstanding, delivering just the right level of brightness for my well-lit office. The monitor is incredibly fast, and with PowerToys > Fancy Zones, I can split the screen into three sections seamlessly.
Initially, I was concerned about the aggressive curve, but it feels perfect for this size. Larger monitors make such curves less noticeable—while the same curve on the 49G9 felt too extreme for my liking, it’s ideal here. The text clarity is exceptional, blacks are truly black, and the contrast remains excellent, even in Eye Saver mode.
My only gripe is the control switch under the monitor—it feels clunky and cheap compared to the CRG9’s system, which was much more user-friendly, especially for toggling Eye Saver mode.
While I don’t game often, I tested it with my RTX 4090 on COD and Flight Simulator and was blown away by the performance. That said, as a novice gamer, my opinion here might not hold much weight. Overall, this monitor is a fantastic choice for both productivity and occasional gaming.

Is a beast of a monitor! From the moment I unboxed it, the quality was apparent. The dual 4K UHD resolution and Quantum Mini-LED technology make games and media look absolutely stunning. Colors are vibrant, blacks are deep, and the HDR1000 really shines when playing cinematic games.

This is a great monitor for anyone. Gamers will totally love it. Picture is clear and sharp. Colors are vibrant. Right out of the box you can easily set it up. It comes with multiple cables (Power, HDMI, DP) however the cables are not super long. The only thing I wish this monitor had is a remote control to adjust the settings. The controls for that are tiny buttons under the bottom center of the monitor.

If you want an ultra high resolution ultrawide this is it. It's the ultimate ultrawide display for those who want the most possible pixels! Upgraded to this from the original 49" G9 and it's amazing! The only thing that could make it better would be if they released an OLED version, but then the price would be even more out of reach. Wait for a good sale on this one and you won't be disappointed! Just make sure your GPU is Displayport 2.1 DP80!

I saw this monitor on sale for a decent chunk off the price and decided to try it out as I've been looking for an ultra wide for a while. After some research, the neo g9 seemed to have what I wanted but what really caught my eye was the ***ADVERTISED FLAGSHIP FEATURE: (world's first) "dual monitor mode." According to Samsung it enables you to plug in 2 sources and have the monitor split in 2 with a few available configurations. I was expecting to just have it split down the middle and essentially have 2 monitors side by side with no bezel. What Samsung does not mention in any substantial way, is that using this feature prevents you from using pretty much any of the other nice features that give this monitor its price. No hdr, 240hz, low latency, etc. Weird that one of the key selling points (WORLD'S FIRST) of a product disables the rest of the selling points. It is a pretty heavy monitor as one could imagine and weird to assemble/handle. Depending on your setup, it may require a second set of hands to help you move it around so I was a little frustrated having to take it down to return. Another thing is that the ambient lighting it has built in apparently only works with hdmi. Otherwise it's just a nightlight. But, if all you care about is the monitor working on a basic level and looking nice, then it is a very nice monitor. Colors good, darks good, all that good stuff. Would have been 5 stars from me but missing feature info cost me a lot of time and effort just to end up returning it. If you're thinking of buying for the dual monitor feature, don't. I ended up going with a couple of 32" neo g8s and haven't looked back. From what I understand, the g9 is just 2 g8s spliced together anyway and I couldn't tell the difference in picture quality
