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 49″ screen, and 1000R curvature are my favorite features! this would make gaming an entirely different experience!!

  2. I can’t wait to see this screen live, the best part is the amazing game synchronization features and bright quantum led’s, this well allow faster reaction time and better visual in thoughts darker games.
    Telling Matthew which game I would play the most does no justice, every game I have will look sick on this monitor, right now I’d say final fantasy XIV with this large curve screen I’d be able to see every inch of the battlefield and with eye popping visuals I’d be drooling.

  4. “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.” I Couldn’t say it any better than that…after receiving cataract eye surgery the visual world is simply a blessing to behold.

  5. I love the 1000R curvature of the Samsung Odyssey G9 Gaming monitor. It will makes games more realistic.

  6. I love the 1ms response time and the curvature as I am just getting into flight sims. The curved screen will make it feell more immersive.

  8. My Husband would love to have a large monitor like this to game on. It’s way bigger then his current monitor.

  9. My boyfriend is a a huge gamer, and he would go absolutely bonkers if I won this! I’m sure he would appreciate the 1000R curved screen with 32:9 aspect ratio…it’d be like he’s right in the game!

  11. The 49″ and 240hz! The monitor looks amazing in general would be awesome to play Tiny Tina’s wonderlands would look so good.

  13. I like the size, of course, as well as the WQHD resolution. Great for gaming, as well as many other applications.

  15. So excited about the size and hertz to go with it been wanting a bigger 240hz monitor for so long now

  18. Great feature Amazing 49″ screen, and 1000R curvature can’t wait to try some Ms Pacman on it…

  20. I can’t wait to try the new Quantum MiniLED and HDR combined with the perfect 1000R curvature on Microsoft flight simulator or Forza Horizon 5 to have the best immersion possible.

  24. The 240 refresh rate with 1ms (with G-sync) on a monitor with these dimensions? You can’t get any better than that. These specs with the dimensions will make for some great emergence while gaming.

  25. There are many possible features about this monitor that makes it so amazing but I think the best part of this monitor is the wide display, not only is it 49 inches diagonal but it isn’t extremely tall like most tv’s that take up a lot of space, monitors are really good for gaming mainly because of the fast refresh rate. The wide display would be very nice for rocket league, on rocket league you need to know where the ball is and even though there is a ball cam feature sometimes it’s harder to visualize your car as it either flys through the air or drives on the wall with the ball behind your car, with a wide display you can see your opponent going up the field in a blind spot on a normal sized monitor but with the ultra wide feature you can plan your next move and possibly win the game. I am not a pro at rocket league but I’m not bad at it either.

  27. I want and need the new Quantum MiniLEDs and Full Array Local Dimming (FALD). I love playing racing games. These features would benefit me when racing in-game at night and/or under rain.

  32. What impresses me is It’s sheer size and G-Sync/FreeSync compatibility for an immersive gaming experience. I would look forward to an end to tearing, stuttering and juddering when I game

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

  36. The ultrawide curve and size make it so you don’t have to have multiple monitors (unless you really want to :D)

  39. I like the quantum miniLEDs the size of that monitor, I think the first game I’d play on it would be Doom Eternal that game would look so good on this monitor

  40. I love that it has a 49″ screen and Quantum MiniLEDs for stunning visuals; it would be great to play with!

  41. Really like the 1000r curve, never tried one before. The 240 Hz and the 1ms response time sounds unreal, into sim racing this would be a dream monitor!

  44. I want to play battlefield 5 on a monitor like this… Would be crazy, and the 240hz omg. My friends would definitely envy me.

  45. If I were to receive this monitor I would be most excited for the resolution that comes with it, the insane refresh rate and response time, and the rare 1000R curvature which would really help with the peripherals. Can’t get much better than the Samsung Odyssey G9!!!

  47. The size and curvature! Really get to immerse yourself in your games when it feels like its all around you

  49. We love the 1000R curvature of the Samsung Odyssey G9 Gaming monitor. It will makes games more realistic
