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

  2. Would be awesome to connect two video sources and use them side by side.
    And then when I want to play an immersive game, I can switch to full screen and lose all notion of time and space 🙂

  3. I love everything about this monitor. If I had to select a few things they would be the 49″ screen, and 1000R curvature, running 240Hz with a 1ms response time.

  4. G-Sync and FreeSync Premium Pro support – I tend to swap GPUs and like to go back and forth between nVidia and AMD to test the differences. This would allow me to keep one monitor for both.

  5. I currently run four widescreen monitors for my visually-intensive productivity work. If I could replace those for displays with a single monitor, my gaming framerates would mprove and those annoying bezels would go away!

  6. I am excited about the FALD that allows the bright display to selectively darken black areas of the screen for refined contrast. It’s all about the visuals!

  7. I’ve eyed this monitor for so long, the res, the 240hz, the colors, been wanting to game and 3D model on this bad boy.

  8. I’m both an avid gamer and work from home, the fact that this monitor could do the work of two with it’s screen size is what I really like about it.

  9. Starwars:Squadron would be awesome on this. At a comfortable viewing distance of 2-3 feet, itwould completely fill your peripheral vision. Perfect for people with vision issues.

  10. I’m most excited about the the 5120 by 1440p resolution, o good for someone like me with some vision issues.

  11. On the 49 inch monitor I am most excited of the about the top of the line features, and the bright contrast.

  12. A 49″ curved monitor, with 2k resolution, who would be excited to play their favorite games on this monitor.

  13. I am excited about the game mode settings and how great that will be for playing computer games with the kids

  14. I’m most excited by the picture quality. The resolution and color l contrast on a screen this size must look amazing in person.

  15. Everything about it, but especially the 49″ screen, and 1000R curvature, running 240Hz with a 1ms response time.
