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. I’m most excited about the size and curve of this monitor because of how immersive it must feel.

  2. I would most appreciate the curvature of the large screen because I would feel immersed in any game.

  3. I’m impressed with the size and curve of this monitor. I’m sure the specs are even more amazing

  4. Forza horizon 5 su questo minitor sembra un altro gioco, troppo fluido e vedere gli angoli fa la differenza

  5. It’s size would make an amazing all-in immersive experience… I’d love to play Unravel (and Unravel 2) on this screen 🙂

  6. The Samsung monitor will put my daughters in the driver seat like they’ve never experienced in their life before!

  7. The insane size of this monitor is enough to boggle my mind after gaming on a 14″ laptop for years

  8. i love that it is a HUGE monitor and i can see everything for i am near sighted! with this 49 inch screen i will not miss a thing! 😉

  9. I only have a single 27” inch monitor right now with 5ms and 60hz for my setup. Going from this, to basically having two screens with no bezel, 1ms response time and 240hz will be amazing! I won’t have to make compromises anymore for my work and play set up.

  10. i love that it is a BIG monitor and i can see everything for i am near sighted! with this 49 inch screen i will not miss a thing! 😉

  11. I am a beginner gamer…. in my late 50s. This huge monitor would be fantastic for me… I would start with fortniteà

  12. The 1000R curve and 240hz would be incredibly immersive for gaming, the 49” display would be a game changer for my work and productivity, but the thing that would rock my world the most would be the ability to flip the monitor vertically let my nephew use it as a slide.

  13. It sure will be great to own a 49″ inch curved screen monitor to watch all movies, as well surf the web

  14. One big curved screen with about the same area as my two screens might be interesting for some things
    240Hz refresh, 1ms response, G-Sync / FreeSync should all be good for gaming

  15. I think the screen size is my favourite feature because it means seeing more of my favourite games and videos

  16. The 32:9 aspect ratio is something I have never tried before and would love to try out with a racing game.

  17. I’m stoked about The 1000R curvature is optimal for human eyesight, it sounds like the ultimate visual experience!

  18. I really want to get to play dying light 2 and this would be SICK! With the 240hz and the resolution and curve it would be an amazing experience.

  19. I’m excited about the fact that this 49 inch behemoth is curved – there are a lot of awesome racing / driving games out there I’d love to play with this puppy!

  20. I want a really immersive experience and I can get that with the 49″ screen and 1000R curvature, running at 240Hz and its 1ms response time. This is about as good as I could get on my desk.

  21. We are so very excited about the 1000R curvature, it is the best possible for our senior’s age eyesight and would be such a thrill to experience for optimal, unparalleled gaming

  22. The 1ms response time would help me a great deal. I have put countless hours into advancing in Rocket League but my current monitors 4ms response time spikes to 7 and 9ms at random and greatly hinders mechanic timing and progress. After months of trouble shooting, playing on this monitor would allow me to be consistent and fully realize all the work I have put in.
