Best tv for a ps5. Has all the features to display your games at max capacity. Super simple to use and navigate through the menus. The audio quality is decent, but your gaming on a headset anyway.

DanDuhMans Samsung Odyssey g7 28” review

I recently purchased the Samsung Odyssey G7 28” 4K UHD from Best Buy, and I couldn’t be happier with my choice. The picture quality is absolutely stunning—crisp, vibrant colors with incredible detail thanks to the 4K resolution. Whether I’m gaming, streaming movies, or working on creative projects, the visuals are consistently sharp and immersive.
The 28-inch size hits a perfect balance—not too big or small—making it ideal for my desk setup. The design is sleek and modern, and the build quality feels premium. I also appreciate the fast refresh rate and response time, which make gameplay smooth and responsive without any noticeable lag or blur.
Setup was straightforward, and Best Buy’s customer service made the whole experience seamless. Overall, this monitor delivers excellent value for anyone looking to upgrade their display to a high-quality 4K UHD experience. Highly recommended!

Listen… the price tag is a bit heafty.. but my goodness the difference between this beast and something in the $250-$350 price range is astronomical. Used an LG UltraGear 165hz 1440p before and that monitor coupled with a PS5 was great. I decided to upgrade because I saw the price on this had come down a fair amount so I thought why not. First game after getting it all set up, you just can see a difference. The whole image is smoother, it feels incredibly snappier, extreme response time didnt even need to be enabled. Its a fairly bright monitor even with HDR turned on, although i have been playing without HDR turned on just to save on performance. Ive been nothing short of impressed! If youve got the money to throw at it, PICK THIS UP. Im underutilizing it but if i ever get a PC i know im set.

Wanted a 120hz 4k monitor to use my ps5 on. This thing is beautiful, immaculate even. The size is also amazing. If you’re thinking between this option and something else, then go with this. Trust

This monitor is excellent for my gaming needs. The picture quality and refresh rates are exactly what I was looking for. The led lighting in the back and two front lower corners set the mood for whatever you use this monitor for, whether it’s to watch television or play games.

I just want to start this out by saying I have loved this monitor for all of my gaming needs. Really good quality which is to be expected from Samsung. I have had this monitor for probably about a year. Recently had a house fire and lost everything in my house but to my surprise I went to see what all I could save from the fire and WOW! Monitor is still in good shape. Took it to the new place and hooked it up, came right on and worked just as it should. Cleaned it up and it's basically back to brand new other than occasionally getting a whiff of smoke. 100/10 for me

Love my new monitor. I play PS5 with it and saw a big difference coming from a TV. It has built in speakers so when I’m tired of using headphones or just want to watch something quick on streaming apps, it’s super convenient.

I love this monitor, I have a medium sized desk space, so having a second monitor was not an option. The screen size if enough to have multiple tabs open. I love the resolution. I have been using it to watch shows and play games such as Hollow Knight. It is a good choice if you want 4K resolution and a high refresh rate at an affordable price. I also didn't realize it can rotate to be vertical. This was such a bonus! I also really like how the bottom lights match my pc. Also, it comes with a display port cable which I also wasn't expecting. Overall, I just really this monitor.

I was using a larger Samsung G8 monitor when I was offered this G7 for review. I initally thought the biggest differences between the two would be screen size, different chassis style/color, and bumping down to a 120Hz refresh rate from 240, and the G7 ships with a remote whereas the G8 does not. None of these I considered a big deal because I planned to use the G7 with an Xbox series X and use the G8 with my gaming PC. The Xbox max refresh is 120Hz, so it works out. Assembly of the G7 is simple and is designed to be completed with the monitor still inside the box.
Performance is where the G7 is somewhat disappointing overall, at least for console use. Actual gameplay performance on console is good although much like the G8, the HDR seems washed out and leaves a lot to be desired. The monitor had no issues keeping up with the comparatively modest demands of the console. Gaming video was tack sharp, smooth, and flicker free. Lighting effects were excellent and rendered beautifully. The G7 functions much like a smart TV home entertainment hub, whereas the G8 feels more like a dedicated gaming monitor. I had to agree to Samsung’s privacy and streaming policies before using the wifi enabled G7. Once connected, the G7 can stream live video and other content. The home screen can be customized with widgets for quick access to common streaming services. The G7 has a gaming mode but it has a lot of flicker and seemingly indecisiveness while trying to engage. It wouldn’t be too bad if it only happened at the beginning and end of gaming sessions but it also occurs on certain in-game pause and static menus and whenever I invoke the Xbox overlay to record or watch replays. It gets highly annoying at times. Another reason the G7 isn’t optimal for consoles is because whenever any display settings get hosed, like for example when the HDR somehow got disabled, it’s more difficult to troubleshoot and resolve than on PC. Lastly, the XBox app is among the numerous apps pre installed on the G7. Clicking the Xbox app panel instead of the Xbox Series X panel opens the same Xbox app that I have on my smart devices. It’s useful for cloud gaming but does not really support console gaming and isn’t really necessary on a console.
The G7 is much more suitable for a PC than a console. It’s a good option for dorms or smaller rooms where it can pull double duty as a streaming smart TV in addition to PC and gaming monitor duties. One other concern I have though is quality. The first G7 I ordered developed a persistent thin green vertical line near the center of the screen within the first hour of use. I included a pic of the line. The replacement has been good so far but I do worry about quality overall compared to the G8. If on the fence deciding between the G7 and G8, the G8 is the better choice despite being more expensive.

I needed a very specific monitor: one that wasn't too large, had HDR support, was 4K, and had a refresh rate higher than 60 Hz. This hit the nail on the head. Absolutely recommended.

For a console this monitor is perfect low input latency and supports all hdmi 2.1 specs I care about even though the hdr isn’t that great it’s nice to have it as well as variable refresh rate and 120hz output.
