When we say this gaming monitor is big, we mean it. For perspective, its 49-inch panel has a resolution of 5,120 x 1,440 pixels. The screen has a curvature of 1800R which makes it easier to see given its width. The Odyssey OLED G9, as the name suggests, has an OLED panel powered by Samsung’s Neo Quantum Processor Pro. The refresh rate can get as low as 0.03 ms while the refresh rate caps out at a pleasingly high 240 Hz.
The OLED panel provides a great range of color support, covering 99% of the DCIe P3 color gamut. This is backed up with a maximum possible brightness of 250 Nits. There are three USB ports to use, along with both HDMI and DisplayPort options for video input. As far as audio support goes, it has 5W speakers integrated for stereo sound output.
We’re not sure how long the Samsung Odyssey OLED G9 monitor will be available at this price, but you can find it right now over at Amazon for the discounted rate.
