Samsung's ultrawide Odyssey G9 is $300 off - and it beats any dual monitor setup I've used
"First off, it's massive. The Odyssey G9, as I'll call it, measures a whopping 49 inches diagonally and outputs at a resolution of 5,120 x 1,440 pixels. This is the equivalent of having two Quad HD monitors side by side. It has a curvature of 1000R, so when you sit in front, it'll feel like the screen is enveloping you on all sides. This unique design delivers an unparalleled immersive gaming experience."
"In addition to its high resolution, Samsung's display features multiple enhancements that work together to improve image quality. You have DisplayHDR 600 for high-contrast videos. Shades of black look very dark, and whites positively shine. To maintain solid performance, it supports AMD FreeSync Premium Pro, ensuring jitter-free outputs. Gamers will appreciate the 1ms response time and the 144Hz refresh rate. Together, these two features let you stay on top of your game."
"A monitor of this size may seem impractical at a glance. However, I would argue that a 49-inch monitor can be one of the most space-efficient displays on the market. A dual-monitor setup requires enough space for the pair, which can be tough on a small desk. However, the only really needs space for its base, and it's large enough to replicate a dual-monitor setup. It is also adjustable, allowing you to raise or tilt the screen as needed."
Samsung's Odyssey G9 is on sale for $700, a $300 discount. The monitor measures 49 inches diagonally and outputs 5,120 × 1,440 pixels, equivalent to two Quad HD monitors side by side. A 1000R curvature creates an enveloping field of view that enhances peripheral awareness for immersive gaming. Image quality is enhanced by DisplayHDR 600, delivering deep blacks and bright whites. The display supports AMD FreeSync Premium Pro, offers a 1ms response time and a 144Hz refresh rate for smooth, low-latency gameplay. The single-panel design can be more space-efficient than dual monitors and includes adjustable height and tilt.
