Customers often highlight the Odyssey G5 monitor's excellent picture quality and refresh rate, making it ideal for gaming. Many appreciate its value for the price and the immersive experience provided by its curved screen and HDR capabilities. However, some users have reported issues with dead pixels and ghosting, while others find the stand less than ideal. The color accuracy is also frequently praised.

    My son loves the refresh speed for this monitor. In fact he got a better Gforce card to drive the higher refresh rates for online gaming.

    Decent but the lack of ips panel hurts it

    If you are okay with the severe color quality difference of going with a non ips panel this is a good monitor for gaming, I would highly recommend going with something that has an ips panel just for the increased visual quality of games(something like the acer nitro line)

    Basic gaming monitor that doesn't deliver.

    Decent monitor but not worth the cost. Maybe for like $150 it'll be fine. Pros: wide display, curved, bright, looks clean, easy to set up Cons: screen flickers, has bad ghosting, and stutters even with freesync enabled, doesn't come with display port cable. It does what any monitor can do, but if you actually want what you pay for, and what Samsung advertises (low motion rate at 1ms, freesync that doesn't make your display stutter or flicker or have ghosting), get a different monitor. It's not worth the price when your experience with it is this bad. I should have listened to the lower ratings because they're true. Curved, high refresh rate/resolution monitors are a gimmick at this price. Samsung didn't deliver. At most Samsung just delivered on 1440p resolution but the refresh rate is bad and there's a ton of issues with the display from a gamer's perspective.

    Deserves a 4.5/5, pretty easy to setup except you have to manually set the screen to 144hz. Definitely a huge jump from my previous 75hz 1080p dell it’s pretty much night and day between the two. My only complaint is once switching this monitor to 144hz from there is now a distinct high frequency noise coming from the monitor, it’s nothing that’s majorly annoying nor inconvenient but it is a minor nuisance that you will hear in a quiet room with no other noise.

    Great monitor. Only issue would be the display feels a bit bland on the colors but can be fixed by letting your gpu adjust the colors.
