Samsung Odyssey G9 Gaming monitorSamsung sets the standard for great technology across many product categories, especially great display technologies. Samsung televisions and Samsung monitors are in a class by themselves for bringing brilliant digital experiences to our homes. And every year Samsung raises the bar with their new products. The latest example is their new line of Odyssey monitors. We just reviewed the largest and most impressive monitor you ever find, the Samsung Odyssey G9 on the Best Buy blog. Now we are giving away the blogger samples in this contest.

Surround yourself with Samsung’s ultimate gaming monitor

You want to be “in the moment” while gaming, fully immersed in the experience. For that, a curved gaming monitor is optimal. And the Samsung Odyssey G9 with its 49″ screen, and 1000R curvature, running 240Hz with a 1ms response time is pretty much as good as you can get. The 1000R curvature is optimal for human eyesight and very rare in a super large screen (most curved monitors have a more easily produced, less pronounced curve like 1500R or 1800R). The display also features Samsung’s new Quantum MiniLEDs for stunning visuals, and Full Array Local Dimming (FALD) to allow the bright display to selectively darken black areas of the screen for refined contrast. In addition, this monitor’s components for game synchronization, connectivity, etc are all top of the line. This monitor will put you in the driver seat like you’ve never experienced in your life.

We sent two of these monitors to writers Matthew Rondina and Christian Jarry for honest reviews. Read what the reviewers have to say and watch their videos to see just how impressive gaming can become when you have a monitor of this calibre.

Samsung monitors and televisions for all of your entertainment

The high quality of this Samsung display will come as no surprise to anyone with a Samsung television. There too, Samsung brings technological brilliance to meet all of your entertainment needs—including gaming entertainment. Many of their new televisions have high refresh rates, low response times, and settings like “Game Mode” to deliver stunning gaming on even their largest screens.

The choice of whether to buy a gaming TV or a gaming monitor just became more difficult with the arrival of the Samsung Odyssey G9 monitor. It’s size, curvature, and other features that have been discussed above make it an obvious choice for gamers wanting the most realistic and all-in immersive experience. You don’t have to choose one or the other if you happen to win this contest. However, read the details below carefully so you have the best chance to win.

  1. The Odyssey G9 is the pinnacle of gaming monitors. 1000R curvature.. 240hz… 1ms response time…. I am most excited for the total immersive gaming experience that only this monitor can provide! I am ready for this monitor to put me in the drivers seat like no other monitor has ever done before!

  2. Well, to be honest, I would not buy this monitor for gaming. Instead, I will make games, I am a game programming student. I would love to have this monitor because first of all, I can’t buy it and its a free contest . Second, it has 49″ screen, which is great for multitasking. Third, it might be a bit overboard because its 1440p display but has 49″, atleast I dont have to zoom in my work. Fourth, if I were to play games and work at the same time, I could do it easily, no sweat. I could play games like SplitGate, Line of Sight, Devil may cry, etc. Well, I never once won the contest lol, It feels good to share what I feel.

  3. The sheer size of it because it would give the total immersive experience, regardless of what game is being played.

  4. The feature I am most excited about, honestly, is simply the curve. Being able top play Titan Fall 2 on this beast would be an amazing experience. Conan? Get outta town! I have been saving for a while for a curved Samsung monitor and I am extremely excited. Imagine gaming in the future, that is what this will be like. Immersion is what everybody craves and this is next level.

  5. The features of the Samsung Odyssey G9 Gaming monitor that I’m most excited about are the sheer size of it combined with the curvature.

  6. I would play the Microsoft Flight Simulator (PC)-playing in the cockpit view with the 1000R curvature because it will feel actually flying a plane

    • The thing I am most excited about it how big the beautiful screen is and with 240Hz???? Gimme gimme

  7. the size of it because it will help me see things better and I can have many windows open at once on one screen

  8. The ultra wide with the 240hz and 1ms response time is what I am truly excited about. I’ve been playing games where I need an ultra wide but I couldn’t go down in HZ so this is the ticket!

  9. I’ve never had a “real” gaming monitor before so having one with 240hz refresh rate????? That sounds incredible!!! Not to mention the size would make any game truly immersive!

  10. I love the size of it would give a great experiencelike the microsoft FlightSyimulatorPCplayinginthecockpitview withwitha100rcurviture willfeel like being ina plane

  11. The sheer size of it! It would give the total immersive experience, regardless of what game is being okayed!

  12. Very excited for the dual WQHD layout. I run a WQHD monitor now and I love it. I’ve always been a single screen guy, don’t like moving things between monitors. This would be absolutely awesome, ample room for lots of apps plus extremely immersive for gaming. Looks great!

  13. Microsoft Flight Simulator (PC)-playing in the cockpit view with the 1000R curvature will feel actually being in a plane

  14. Microsoft Flight Simulator (PC)-playing in the cockpit view with the 1000R curvature will feel actually being in a plane

  15. Love the 1000R curvature, running 240Hz with a 1ms response time! This will would definitely provide an immersive gaming experience!

  16. The 49″ size of this 32:9 dimensioned wide-wide screen is what makes this monitor special. There is no monitor frame break in the screen continuity to spoil the ultra widescreen effect like that which you encounter when trying to do a traditional dual or triple monitor setup to achieve this same wide screen view.
