Samsung Odyssey Neo G9 Review: An ultra-wide Mini LED marvel

The Samsung Odyssey Neo G9 is an ultra-wide gaming monitor that goes a step further than its predecessor with Mini LED technology.

Show-stopping HDR and SDR ability ; Bold, accurate and vibrant colours ; Excellent refresh rate ability ; Immersive curved widescreen design

Wallet-busting price ; 32:9 aspect ratio won’t suit everyone ; Requires a powerful graphics card ; Connectivity could be improved

Samsung Odyssey Neo G9 review: an ultra-widescreen gaming monitor sensation

The Samsung Odyssey Neo G9 is a monitor that demands attention

Absolutely massive ; Brilliant picture quality ; Top-tier specs

Absolutely massive ; You'll need help to put it up ; Very pricey

The Samsung Odyssey Neo G9 is undoubtedly one of the best gaming monitors for Windows PCs you can buy at the moment: it's huge and it's expensive, but if that's okay with you then you can enjoy some stunning visuals across this 49-inch ultra-widescreen.

Flight-sim and racing fans will go ga-ga over Samsung's Odyssey G9, a gaming monitor with a curved 49-inch screen that gets incredibly bright while delivering smooth motion and vivid color.

Samsung Odyssey Neo G9 Review

The Samsung Odyssey Neo G9 is a super ultrawide gaming monitor with a 49 inch screen and 32:9 aspect ratio. It's an upgraded model of the Samsung Odyssey G9 that...

Excellent peak brightness in HDR. Exceptional gradient handling. Great contrast and good Mini LED local dimming for deep blacks. Stand offers height, tilt, and swivel adjustments. Fantastic SDR peak brightness and decent reflection handling. Enough...

Narrow viewing angles. Disappointing black uniformity. Aggressive screen curve makes it hard to share screen. Issues with VRR at 60Hz.

The Samsung Odyssey Neo G9 is great for most uses. The large, high-resolution screen provides enough space for multitasking and it gets bright enough to combat glare in a well-lit office space. It's good for content creators and media consumers because...

Gets very bright in HDR. Decent contrast ratio. High refresh rate. Good reflection handling. Large screen size. Good response time. Outstanding gray uniformity.

Samsung Odyssey Neo G9 review: Quantum Mini LED brings a better, brighter (and pricey) display

Our Samsung Odyssey Neo G9 review looks at the latest gaming monitor from the company. The Quantum Mini LED display easily improves upon last year's model.

Minor design changes like customizable game mode buttons ; Great colour and contrast with Mini LED panel ; 240Hz refresh rate great for gaming ; Brighter than ever ; Immersive 1000R curvature ; Dual HDMI 2.1 and a single DisplayPort 1.4 ; Very little,...

Some games still have issues with double QHD resolution (note: not a fault of the monitor) ; HDR on Windows is still hit and miss (note: not a fault of the monitor) ; LED ring could be brighter ; Pricey due to Mini LED technology

The original Samsung Odyssey G9 easily earned our Editor’s Choice award last year, and the Samsung Odyssey Neo G9 easily claims that same honour for this year. The minor design changes and Quantum Mini LED panel only improve on last year’s model. If...
