Samsung 34" Odyssey G5 Ultrawide Gaming Monitor Review

[@GamerHeavenOfficial]

What monitor are you currently using, and are you looking at anything else in the future?

[@AlphaEvan]

Dude said everything I needed to know in the first minute of the video and I mad appreciate that. Got my sub

[@HerbGrowingLegal716]

Just got this for 229 , walmart black friday.

[@jamalmohsen4074]

How is it? because I want to get it for my PS5.

[@mixupmagic155]

As did I facts

[@johnleasure7899]

Dude, first of all it does support HDR and second of all it’s not in the monitor program it’s simply in your windows display settings all you need to do is go into your display. Go to windows HD color settings click use HDR that simple. I’ve been using it since it works perfectly fine. I’m not hating on your channel or anything. I just hate when people don’t do their studies. That’s all I’m saying

[@pistachiodisguisey911]

He literally talks about it, and its just not bright enough for true hdr

[@omegaPhix]

Lol, you didn't listen. The monitor isn't bright enough for HDR content and the panel has no local dimming, so it's going to look like shit

[@reviewforthetube6485]

He was talking about the brightness for true hdr. They say it's 1k nits but in real world content it's like 500 nits lol

[@reviewforthetube6485]

Also the color gamut isn't as good as they say but it is a good monitor I think people overthink specs like this all I care about is what my eyes percieve not numbers. I've found myself loving dimmer oled tvs over bright ones even! I turn my sony a90j down to low to get the image I like lol. Also not worried about accuracy on the eotf curve.

[@coffeeaddictgaming2883]

I use this for gaming and it’s unbelievable for gaming. I bought a custom stand and didn’t use the standard one. I would not call the brightness dim - I’ve never had a game which I felt was too dark.

[@Zappiieee]

Should I not get this ?

hi….i would buy this monitor…but i don’t want use it just for gaming but even for film or match of football…obviusly principally is for gaming…what do u think about it? can i see all the monitor watching a film?

[@xNaceryx]

I was able to snag this monitor at 280€ so pretty happy overall!!!!

[@lexypic1628]

Enjoyed this video mate, nice style. Thanks! Have a chance to buy this at 330 pound/440 dollars so still super tempted.

[@_bermuda]

Wow you can really see just how dim it is in this video with the 250nits.

[@nigelthornberry7513]

the whole vid saying it is not a very good one and that you should look at others from msi and gig, but don't even name one of the other ones that he mentions about 5 times in the video. Wow very helpful for people looking for a monitor thanks.

[@Apparition_Unknown]

Ive been playing on a 60 hz tv for cod so im sure no matter what this will be worlds better

[@SveinOlavLarsen]

It's on sale for $355 now here in Norway. I've heard the flaws but at that price and for mainly World of Warcraft it should be ok purchase?

[@dnatech4477]

Just picked one up for under $250

[@weerdonerd]

I bought this monitor and returned it 3 days later. I wanted to use it mainly for sim racing but since the track you are racing is is mainly grey/dark the smearing was REALLY bad. Also i had 4 dead pixels one of which was right in the centre. But dang.. that 1000rr curve though.. the smearing just was too much for me sadly..

[@txmmymai3175]

You're making me a little worried because I got it solely for iRacing and ACC, but still got it for only 360$ on sale so

[@media6969]

Can't you just change your settings to fix the smear?

[@jacobdavis8089]

@@txmmymai3175 Did you notice bad smearing like Weerdonerd did? This is what has me on the fence about this monitor.

[@cmdrchaos26]

So this is 2 years later but how would this pair with a 4080

[@Pavlov-x2p]

Really good

[@joekemph]

Just got mine for $350, I'll take it at that price

[@TROUBLESOME.87]

i got mine for 400 euros. Im pretty happy with it. Although i got the same feeling with the date and time display lol

[@mikelotterario9862]

Keep doing these tech reviews buddy. They are working!! They are listening. Like a fool I just bought one of these monitors without watching your video first! They changed the stand so its height adjustable now and not a flimsy POS. It was also only 299$ for the 27 inch model. So they came down on the price. Keep it gangster brother👍🏻

[@RabeccaPrimeau]

rather than gaming would this be good for music production

[@romainissa]

do you recommand it for productivity ? like for a filmmaker ? or is it just great for gaming ?

[@BM713]

Great video. Really helped out my decision making.

[@datdus5524]

Which one did you get,m

[@jelato7633]

Just wanted to say Ive been just staring at monitor reviews for over an hour. No reactions at all. The first 15 seconds was so funny. 15 seconds in you got a new sub. Shows how powerful an intro is.

[@MrMckill3r2023]

Can you compare this to the Koorui 34 ultrawide?

[@ascerta]

Straight to the point. Thanks for saving us time.

[@JamieReynolds89]

its goin £350 ($470 or so) on sale, is it worth getting at this price?

[@reyalPRON]

Ive got this one, and im not happy with it. If you use the MBR function the edges around things are whited out. it cant cycle grey to grey fast enough for the 165hz rate. At 100hz the story changes though. u get 10 bit color depth and it feel better. Think this is a max overdrive 120hz panel, feels like its better at 100-120 hz also would like to add that the 1ms is a lie. it has an asterix after it. 165hz gives a frame time just shy 7ms if your gpu can provide 165fps. which yours clearly did not since u measured 10ms response. gl in the future and i hope u get more tech savvy if ur gonna do these kinds of vids.

[@flagoman]

thank you, was about to buy, I'll get something higher.

[@roady1710]

I guess good things come to those who wait pick up mine a month ago brand new 420 pretty happy with it ... As far as the stand goes works fine for me playing horror games

[@olcique]

Greetings, thanks for the video. It helped me a lot on making the decision for buying this monitor. I had a problem though. Some reviews mention because of the back design of this monitor, many vesa brackets won't fit or damage the back of the case. Are you absolutely sure about fitting vesa mounts without any adapter? Most vesa brackets are also suitable for 100x100mm(G5 is 75x75mm) so I have concerns...

[@masonrawdon155]

This monitor is 75x 75 I belive and as far as damage it is possible the monitor is flat there just use some small washers or spacers very small or medium not large ones and then the Vesa mount 😊 that will solve that problem bc it pushes the Vesa mount away from the physical monitor but not to much that it sinks and tilts down if that makes sense

[@jeremyli8757]

what is your white case? looks beautiful!

[@OcihEvE]

TY for the review. I think I will wait for that 100% drop in price.

[@greatunz67]

Dude has a bunch of old consoles behind him that were made before he was born, therefore he looks smart..

[@haramlee83]

With that price, now you can buy G7 in sale, that would be so much better option to buy.

[@The_derpy_Doggo]

i found it on sale for over 250 euro cheaper then normal so im gonna take those negatives as is. If it would still be 600 then i would've taken something else but i guess its worth it at that price

[@lukepinkney1015]

Any ideas why I'm only getting 100hz on ps5?

[@ea8650]

You Know something

[@YnSJr]

HDMI support Only 100hz

[@ikk2220]

Got it on sale for 325$ On amazon

[@stevnn2919]

Didnt want to buy this, but its Amazon listed for 364,90€ so I ordered it today - price seems too good

Torn between this and the BenQ Ex3210R… What should I do?

hi GamerH, whats the wall mount you're using and whats a good desk mount too that i can consider for htis monitor? ive ordered the monitor and i know the stands pathetic lol thanks if you reply

I got flickering problems with this monitor, it seems to be a normal thing with them to, had to return it.

@Gamer Heaven What kind of mouse did you use ?

[@sysquella12702]

Currently using Alienware 27” aw2721d 240hz monitor. I’m considering the LG34gp950g due to ultra wide and hdr 600. All I do is play games and watch KZbin. Never owned a ultra wide before, are they even worth it? Have you seen the one I’m looking at? Great content by the way.

[@SeamusM]

I didn't hear you mention the LG Ultragear. I have the 38" and it's really an amazing gaming monitor. I wasn't aware of the Samsung hdr fiasco, so this was an informative video. I'm a big Samsung fan.

[@GamerHeavenOfficial]

I actually really like LG and Samsung products, and own a decent amount myself.

[@alanbulawa]

I'm looking to buy a 34" UW screen for gaming. Could you recommend one or two choices for 500-1000$ budget?

[@SeamusM]

@@alanbulawa LG's 34" UltraGear UW gaming monitor is $999.99, and I'm sure performs as well as my 38".

[@noa_lag5939]

I've paid this monitor 333€, is that a good price ?

[@Rosanjo9]

Do you think I should go for this for gaming (fps plus most other type) and content creation and general consumption when I don't have another ultrawide option in my country? It will cost 730 dollars and my other option is LG Ultragear 27-inch, 144 hz Nano IPS 27GL850 for 535 dollars or Samsung Odyssey G7 27-inch 1000R, 240 Hz, Curved Gaming Monitor LC27G75TQSWXXL for 643 dollars. I will be running them with Amd 3700x and rtx 3070. Thanks.

They are 2 separate wall mounts , it is linked in the description of the video.

$370 on Amazon. I think for my Son's 10th birthday he would be psyched to play Roblox on this. Just for the "cool factor".

would this run with an xbox series x?

Absuletely not the monitor is more expensive than the console it would be a waste of frame rates

[@tysilky2521]

I can only get up to 100hz with this monitor on my ps5. Someone please help

I have an MSI MPG341CQR 34” curved ultra-wide- love it.

[@nightruler666]

For the price they are selling this one you are better off getting the G7

[@azraell33]

I just upgraded my monitor a couple days ago since my Asus Predator died for the second time. I looked at this monitor but no g-sync sunk it for me. I went with the LG Ultragear. Not an ultrawide but big enough.

[@Pivotmasterblackbird]

it's not officially G-sync, but it is compatible.

[@nooschie]

I never had a monitor but since I get series x I’m going to get this monitor bc in Germany it’s price is 400 so yeah sounds like a good deal to me

[@mr.falcon6387]

Bought this for Xbox series S and Warzone is fuzzy AF. Cannot figure it out! Other games/apps loom good, but not Warzone. Any ideas or suggestions?

Does the Xbox fit the screen of the ultra wide monitor?

Est ce que en 1080p, la qualité de l’écran est beun

[@asasdsaasda]

i have had this monitor for 1 year and it is just not worth it, i regret being to lazy to return it when i had the option, the color washes up no matter how much you play with settings, i use this monitor with a dell2721dgf and the difference is HUGE, what amazed me the most is that HDR make the everything so much worst, i had to turn it off and play with the settings to make it acceptable, anyone that read this and want to buy this monitor, honestly, try to find something better even if you had to put some extra money, a monitor is a very important factor in your gaming experience, don't mess up by been cheap, buy a worst case for you pc or something

I got this monitor for playing warzone on my xbox series x. The quality is sh*t. When I change the change the screen size from wide to "17 , the display quality turns out okay. Stil not as beautiful as they claim to be; no hdr to be noticed. When I hook it up to my MacBook the quality is good and there is nothing to complain about. But that is not what I bought this display for. Real dissapointment...

[@righteousrebel6387]

Well sh!t here's a sign from the gods if i've seen one, mine is supposed to arrive in couple of days guess still have till then to find a better one in the same price range so i can have in good conscious a good reason to deny on delivery.

[@righteousrebel6387]

Appreciate the right to the point approach, just wished if you could've in the same time shown some of the tests results specifically in the differences between the 165-144-120 and the effects in closeups while playing for example, newly subscribed keep it up 👍🏼
