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.

  22. I would just love this monitor. My wife stole my photo editing monitor when she started working from home so this would be a great replacement. The feature I like the most is just the size.

  23. I game on a 32” curved monitor — cannot even begin to imagine HOW immersive this must be if mine already is!

    And 1ms + 200mhz? Sign me up.

    Need to try this out.

  25. Its low input lag, a fast response time, and a high refresh rate, resulting in a responsive and smooth gaming experience are my favourite features. It is compatible with NVIDIA’s G-SYNC with my RTX 30 series graphics card.

  26. I would be most excited to play Horizon Zero Dawn on this monitor. The display of the Samsung Odyssey G9 is incredibly wide and immersive!

  28. I want to be “in the moment” while gaming, fully immersed in the experience. All the features excite me!!!

  30. The 240Hz refresh rate and 1m/s is amazing and i find it incredible how they achieve so much on such a big 49” screen so that i can multi task between business and personal content seamlessly.

  31. I am particularly excited about the 240Hz refresh rate which is very good for such a massive display.

  32. As someone using a 24″ monitor, the size of the screen has blown me away! Amazing looking curved monitor!

  37. The full array local dimming is rare on a computer monitor. I can imagine how good the HDR would look with 2000 nits brightness and close to true blacks as a result. The 240hz is also a nice touch for competitive fps gaming. And I can use all that screen real estate for work.

  43. The 49″ screen is definitely a game changer! I can see the bad guys from a mile away.

  44. The massive 49″ size of the monitor is the best feature, right up there with the 240Hz refresh rate for smoothness while playing games!

  48. I love the super ultrawide screen which provides immersive experience for all kinds of media and entertainment use of this monitor.

  49. The full array local dimming on a super wide screen sounds very exciting for me. Moving from my old laptop screen with lots of light bleeding to Samsung’s super wide monitor would be amazing!

  50. The Best features for me are a toss up between the super wide 49 inchs of display and the 240Hz with a 1ms response. Just amazing where the tech is at these days.
