Good well rounded monitor
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The overall quality is very good the smart hub interface is very smooth and works well like a high-end tv. It is also comes with a nice game hub that is very convenient. It is very easy out of the box to setup it is quite intuitive. The height adjustment is very smooth very seemless, the tilt is just as good, and the portrait mode rotation is quite convenient if you are using it as a side monitor, but it still works very well as a main monitor. The settings for the monitor and pretty customizable as well. The monitor comes with speakers that are surprisingly good and well rounded with good highs and lows, but if a speaker is available I would recommend for a even better experience. In terms of display it is one of the better ones with good dark and light areas and good definition, and expected from a gaming monitor of this range it has good refeesh rates. Although kind of a superfical feature the LEDS are very good and are customizable so they can match the screen making it very immersive. Overall a good monitor and would recommend for a well rounded experience.

Wonderful Picture Quality and Fun Treasure Hunt
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought an open box (excellent condition) to go with my new Skytech PC around November 2023. When I received the monitor, it had everything except 2 screws for mounting the monitor to the stand. I went in to my local best buy and spoke to someone about my problem, because it is highly frustrating to be missing only 2 screws and they are the most important ones to be missing! The guy I spoke to tried looking in the back for a monitor similar, since they did not have any in stock at the time for holiday season sales going on, and the only ones he had from samsung were older models that did not have screws to connect the base to the monitor but rather a type of hinge. So I was out of luck there. He reccomended for me to go by batteries bulbs and more, or a local computer store, because they might have the very small metric screws I needed. I went to Lowes home improvement instead and found a small pack of slightly longer screws than I needed, but it got the job done for me and those screws are doing a great job holding my beautiful computer monitor together! I am in love with my computer desk set up, and this monitor was a perfect fit for my room. I love the RGB light on the back of the monitor and how it lights up part of my wall. I love the 2 little 'windows' on the front of the monitor that show me the RGB light too. I have all samsung tv's in my house, so I'm very familiar with the remote provided to use for turning on off, using to change inputs, or even getting to the smart hub home to stream shows and movies. Yes, it does have to be turned on manually when you turn your PC on, but if it does not detect anything on, it will turn off after 45 seconds which is nice if I forget to turn the monitor off after turning my PC off. I love the curved screen look better than flat, so this style is perfect for me, and I know this is not 4K but the picture is so clear on my 27" screen that I don't care about 4K for now. I highly recommend the Samsung Odyssey monitor series and have no complaints! My only warning is for those who like to buy open box like me, don't get cursed with missing screws like I did! :)

Best gaming monitor I’ve ever gotten
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Definitely the most best buy no pun intended. Lol I bought all year. I work from playing PS five on a 75 inch to this way quicker play graphics are nice the curve feeling give me a better look at while I’m playing. The refresh rate is fast enough for you help me with Above & Beyond and I told him what I wanted and he showed me what I needed.

Amazing
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.3 week review. I got this for my boyfriend because he is an avid PC gamer. His other monitor was old and all he talked about was he needed a new one. Well I surprised him with this one after asking him what he liked and needed. He hust thought i was really into it but i just enjoyed him lighting up about gaming and this stuff lol. He came unboxed and was so elated for it and once he started playing the refresh rate and all that other tech gaming talk was excellent. He had no complaints enjoys all this monitor offers. I may get one for myself to work off of. This is a must buy and worth every penny.

Great Picture, Easy Setup, Tons of Apps
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have never been a fan of curved monitors however decided to try out this monitor after hearing so many good things about the Odyssey. I am glad that I gave this monitor a chance as I have been very impressed with the quality of the product and the amount of options this monitor has. The monitor was shipped with easy setup that provides both DisplayPort and USB to PC cables. It does NOT provide an HDMI cable however with the 8k DP cable an HDMI cable is not really needed. Out of the box it provides an option to use a stand of wall mount to setup your monitor which was a really nice touch. The software setup was easy to use and provide a nice first time walkthrough for apps and internet setup. There are a ton of apps available for this monitor along with a nice "Game Mode" feature. The only downside is being unable to uninstall most of the unused apps that come pre-installed. However there is a large app storage space so at least there is room for downloading / installing additional apps that you use. The game mode feature is very nice , allows for great customization on how you wish the play particular games. I believe the best feature is not having to turn on your computer to just surf YouTube or play Spodify music. I have not notice any picture difference between this curve monitor and my other 27in monitor that is not curve. Overall the picture looks great and does not have any dead pixels. I like how the speakers sound on this monitor however wish it was facing front of monitor instead of downward against the desk. Overall, I strongly recommend this monitor for all the features and ease of use it provides.

Not totally convinced on the curve, but still love
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I’m a fan of small, high resolution monitors because I have an eye for picking out pixels and jaggies from displays, so having a high DPI is fairly important to me. This 1440P monitor works out great for me at 27 inches because the DPI is fairly high and surpasses what is considered to be “retina” where you can’t pick out the individual pixels at its highest resolution. This is my first monitor that is over 72 hertz. I know that’s kind of odd to some gamers out there, but I buy monitors for production work where over 72 hertz is a luxury at UHD and higher resolutions. WOW. I’m sold at high refresh monitors. When a monitor is at high resolution with high refresh rates, you can’t pick out the various stuttering that might happen to 60Hz monitors. It’s like your computer is running at super speed all the time. I’m never going back to slow monitors again. Now, one thing that I’m still not 100% on is the curved part. In games, this is great. It’s immersive and fun to be able to see out of the corner of your eye all of the various things that could be spraying bullets at you. But for production… I don’t think it’s really the right match at this smaller size. I always felt like my Premiere Pro timeline was folding in on itself. You just have to try it to understand what I’m talking about. I’m used to using 4K/5K 40-43-inch flat monitors so not having a flat display for that type of work throws me off. I’m not sold on the built in software. I would have preferred that it was a Google ecosystem product vs the internal version of software that Samsung uses. My favorite part of this monitor was unexpected. As a curved monitor, I thought I’d have to say goodbye to my monitor mounts. I have rolling monitor mounts in my studio that I wheel from station to station based on my need. I replaced a very heavy 42” monitor with this super light 27” monitor. With the monitor comes mounts for VESA mounting! (see pictures) I was so stoked. It works out pretty well, and I can permamount my old monitor to the wall and wheel around the 27” Samsung wherever I need it! I’m not a fan of having to turn the monitor on manually when connected via DisplayPort. Huh? My other monitors go to sleep when they don’t have a signal. I get that older versions of DisplayPort don’t have CEC but this is 2023; Please turn on when you sense a signal, Monitor! Second thing I don’t really like is how big the power supply is with the monitor. For how absolutely thick this monitor is, why is the power supply so huge as well? Third thing is the old style USB 3.0 B connection from the computer. Wow, this is 2023. Make it C please, make it C. All in all, this is a great monitor. Great for games, refresh rate is WOW, productivity is hmm, and curved for me is /shrug.

Game changer!
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The Odyssey G6 is a huge step towards modern gaming. The days of 1080p gaming are long gone and Curved monitors are still unfamiliar for most, but 2k resolution with 240hz refresh (FPS)… that’s still completely new for everyone. Everything about the Odyssey G6 is gorgeous straight from the box. The Monitor stand is completely versatile and VESA ready, but honestly the stand is one of the best that I have ever seen come with a monitor. One of the biggest differences is the very wide base of the stand, which is needed to offset the 27” curve from tipping over. Samsung does an incredible job with a skinny base that doesn’t interfere with desktop space. The curved monitor is a bit strange, but less than 5 minutes and you will have adjusted. I’m actually so impressed with how quickly I went from “never used a curved monitor” to “I will never use a flat monitor ever again” The built in Samsung Gaming Hub and Smart TV is actually the greatest part about this monitor. I never thought about my monitor being a full entertainment set up. My Xbox, gaming PC, and Nintendo Switch are all hooked up and ready to go at the switch of a button. The auto detection feature reacts to the power up of any and all of my devices. The gaming hub even has xbox remote and cloud gaming ready to go. I don’t even need a console to enjoy AAA games. And for those moments I just want to kick back and watch a show, the samsung remote has a Disney+, Hulu and Netflix button. I never realized how much I wanted to watch a TV show or movie right from my computer chair. Overall the Monitor has become my favorite device for gaming and viewing other entertainment.

A Gem That Swivels and Turns Heads
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The Odyssey line of monitors is amazing. I have the 27 inch one and it must only get better with the other sizes. Right out of the gate/box you will notice this is not going to be complicated or hard to setup. It was not at all! This is my first curved monitor and I’m wondering what took me so long to take the leap and swoop one up. Alright, so once your setup you have your monitor and a remote, and it’s a smart monitor. It will literally walk you through how to configure your settings and preferences. My favorite three features (there are more) are: -Cloud gaming which was amazing and no lag -Portrait and Landscape feature of the screen -Wide landscape views of everything (I thought certain pictures would be cut off) It’s neat that depending on whether I have my tower turned on or my laptop on it will sense which source is on and switch over to it for ease of use. The picture quality is unmatched and the blacks are honestly really great. I saw a few dots in the picture she. I was setting up but I think that was a glitch of some sort. Once I got Fortnite going I was good to go. Oh, and the best surprise… there are built in speakers that have pretty good sound. I am going to upgrade to something with more bass but for a monitor I am very very satisfied with the sound as well. This is an awesome monitor for both beginners and experts

Excellent quality
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This monitor exceeded my expectations. Super smooth refresh, hdr and contrast are phenomenal. Not a big fan of the fact that it's a SMART device. Considering it's a monitor attached to a computer, there is absolutely no consumer need or reason for SMART technology, but maybe that's just my opinion. Still an amazing monitor.
