Samsung 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.

So many great features, but I’d be most excited about the 240hz refresh rate because it would make gaming and video editing so smooth!
I think the 240Hz refresh rate is incredible. I have an older monitor from 2015 or so and I am not even sure what its refresh rate is!
That 240hz refresh rate would make games buttery smooth!
I’m excited about the Full Array Local Dimming (FALD). Having rich blacks can really enhance a gaming experience. Plus, the overall size (49″!) is definitely a selling point.

I like the 2-in-1 split screen monitor and not having a dual monitor setup.
49″ of curved ultrawide goodness!
Ultrawide AND curved? Sign me up!
Not gonna lie… the 49″ screen would make a fine addition to my custom-built PC.
Ultrawide! I can have so many windows open.
Excited about the Wiiiiide screen
this monitor having the option to split the screen into two inputs makes it an amazing 2 monitors in 1, as you can use it as 2 monitors for when you are working off two sources and 1 when when you are playing a game or doing something on a single pc.
amazing features and resolution.
the size is very nice ! work on one side of the monitor and youtube on the other
49” of screen real estate, that must be amazing for those games you need a huge FOV

The ultrawide screen would be great for racing games and expansive RPGs!
