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 super ultrawide 49″ is what makes this really amazing plus 240hz makes gaming really smooth.. with this monitor, multitasking will never get much easier..

  2. I think having the Quantum MiniLEDs would really add amazing visuals. It would be such a cool update to my current set-up.

  3. The feature I’m most excited for is the 240Hz refresh rate. I’m excited for this feature as it’ll be great for gaming. Thank you thank you thank you!

  4. I’m digging the sheer size with that curvature plus the refresh rate. Would be great for both work and pleasure. I need a better monitor to work on my website and ofcourse some gaming / content creation on the side. Currently on an ancient flat screen lcd that decides when it will power on and when it does it strains the eyes after awhile. Would be totally immersed during my PUBG sessions which would be pretty amazing.. Any game really. TY!

  5. I’m most excited about the Quantum Matrix technology and 1000R curved screen because these features will make games feel incredibly immersive!

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

  7. The curvature and the response time.i think the curved screen would make some of the games feel more real.

  8. I love that 49″ screen. I would admittedly probably use this to start doing motion graphics at home and help build my business.

  9. Samsung Odyssey G9 with its 49″ screen, and 1000R curvature, is very rare in a super large screen, this would GREAT for Gaming. Thank you

  10. My favourite feature of the Samsung Odyssey G9 is the Full Array Local Dimming (FALD) which will give better contrast compared to a fixed backlight

  11. If I were to get this monitor, I would probably use the Picture By Picture mode so that I can have a dual monitor setup without having two monitors. And when I’m gaming, I would just make it one screen so I can be immersed in the game!

  12. That refresh rate is out of this world! Love the general look of this monitor too. Would love nice in my home.

  13. Wow, this screen looks unreal. I do a ton of video editing and gaming, and could utilize this screen for both! The features I’m looking forward to are the 49″ screen will be a total gamechanger for visuals. The 1000R curvature looks incredible, will make gaming more realistic!

  14. 240Hz refresh rate with 1ms response time gives you the advantage when gaming first person shooters like call of duty

  15. I am really excited about the curved screen. It would make gaming an unreal experience! 49″ screen?! that would make a perfect pair with my surround sound speakers!!
