Samsung Odyssey Neo G9 57" - 1 Month Later!

[@jchen_tech]

Thanks for watching! Let me know if you guys have any questions! I’ll be doing an update video eventually :)

[@KeynoteTutorials]

I have a suggestion. I'm an Odyssey G9 49" user and a MacBook Pro user as well (I have both Intel I9 and a M1 versions). When you mentioned "60Hz" it lit a yellow light. you are using a low-speed Usb-C cable FOR SURE. I've spent some money on dozens of different cables until I got 5120 x 1440 at **120Hz** (higher than you!). So maybe you do can take the full glory out of it if you buy the right high-end cable. Please give it a try and hopefully you can come with another video specifically over the MacBook experience! Cheers and great vid!

[@TheSlufs]

Have you tried using betterdisplay for scaling? I managed to get custom resolutions between 5140x1440 and 7680x2160 working with 120hz with my m2 pro macbook. Currently running it at 6080x1710 and 120hz. The trick was to use displayport 1.4 instead of HDMI 2.1 and create a virtual display with betterdisplay and mirror it to the G9 + creating custom refresh rates for the virtual display. I know m2 and m1 are different when it comes to external display support, but you should at least be able to run it at higher resolutions at 60hz?

Ok... You're complaining about the matte finish killing contrast, but you have a "light bar" competing with the light of your monitor???? 🤦‍♂️

[@snowwny]

Different purpose. The light bar adds ambient light so the monitor light is less harsh to your eyes when the ceiling lights are off. He can add ambient light by attaching LED light strips to the back of the monitor. That doe the same thing.

[@saintkamus14]

@@snowwny It'd be just easier to tone the brightness of your monitor down if you feel its too harsh. Personally, I have mine set at around 100 nits for SDR content, since I don't have too much ambient light to worry about.

For sharing screen on zoom or google meet, you can just share a "portion of screen" or a specific window. It solves this issue for me.

[@CaseyHardman]

Man, I know investing in a nice monitor is a good thing, but seeing you use it as the same resolution as the 49" at $1,300 less hurt me a little. haha I'm still a fan of IPS, so I'd buy this in a heartbeat if it were a 144Hz IPS panel with G-Sync. Like you, I'd use it more for productivity and video editing. I went from an AW3420DW (3440x1440) to a 42" LG C2 and while OLED is amazing and the vertical resolution made video editing so nice, I just wasn't comfortable, so I'm now on a 38" AW3821DW (3840x1600) and it's the perfect sweet spot for me and the best option for me available. I'd even "settle" for a 5K2K 40" curved 144Hz IPS G-Sync panel but I don't see that happening anytime soon.

[@jonwilliams6996]

​@petrsonnenschein1881 There isn't a GPU that can drive this monitor to its FULL potential at all, the 7900XTX gets you some of the way, but how are you gonna mention that card and pretend that the RTX 4090 doesn't exist? M1, M2, M3... it doesn't matter - none of them are powerful enough and this monitor is wasted used as a second display for a Mac.

That might be worse for productivity, but it'd be amazing for sims...if there's a gpu that can drive it well. That'd be endgame gaming monitor for me. This is a step in the right direction though, but for now I'll stick with a LG 45 Ultragear.

[@undefwun2135]

Good video from a user perspective, instead of regurgitating the numbers I seen 10 times already. And nice setup too. My biggest gripe with all these new 4k monitors coming out is the GPU issue. For what I want to do I need a 4090 but only the AMDs have DP 2.1 (for when I do play games). FYI it's blender, the 4090 does 2.5 to 3 times better than the 7900 XTX on all 3 blender benchmarks. I can trade off 5-10% on a few tasks but over 200% is a deal breaker. Wonder if something will go horribly wrong if I had one AMD and one Nvidia in the same system. Ugh really blows my mind. Any peripheral enthusiast could see the need for DP 2.1 coming, but somehow not a single soul at the worlds biggest graphics card company did? I can't really see an angle for them to hamstring themselves like that. The 5000 series is not due till Q4 24, but we have all these screens now and multiple 240Hz 4ks are coming Q1. The Asus 32" (matte screen so blergh) but the Alienware 32" OLED will be glossy and looks really good. Whoops ranting and going on sidequests... lol

Did you try to use dual output from the MacBook to run the screen as dual screens, and by doing that reach the full resolution? (simulate 2 screens and run them in half width resolution) Let us know if it works! It works well on older macbooks to newer screens. Just using 2 cables.

[@ThePlatinumFox]

This was indeed very usefull! Thank you. The color fringing and the risk of burn is the only thing keeping me away from the Oled G9, so it was good to get the less optimal areas of the miniled model. With a 90/10 work/game ratio use, the strong curve and the viewing angle is a bit of a showstopper for me unfortunately. Already have a Samsung 49" 5120*1440 VA panel and it seem it doesnt give that much af an visual upgrade with miniled - I am sure this is some, but not as much as Oled. Couldnt run this full resolution anyway, until I upgrade my other hardware. When that day comes, I am sure there have been some optimizations in both Miniled and Oled.

On any macbookpro you can use the multipic mode to set up two 4k 60hz screens next to each other. This give you an 8k screen with some drawbacks, but alleviates the screensharing problems. Also good to note that the 'curved screen' is actually straight at the ends .. like all 'curved screens'..

[@DaemonGeek]

Nice review. I am on the fence about this monitor. I am currently using an old 32" 4K Lenovo display which I only recently switched out form the Samsung 49" Neo G9. Like you, I have a Hexcal Studio desk stand, so it was helpful to see the relative width of the 57" monitor relative to the Hexcal stand. When using the 49" Neo G9, I had to place my speakers far apart and toe them in to get better spatial sound, and switching to a 32" monitor, I'm able to place my speakers much closer together which has drastically improved the sound. I am concerned about the 57" forcing me to place the speakers even further apart, and to be honest, this is my biggest concern. Right now, I am resigned to waiting for the new batch of 32" OLED's due out in 2024, but I am severely tempted to just pull the trigger on the 57"... decisions decisions

[@TheLDunn1]

Good to see a creator centric view of this monitor. The comment re sharing screens on things like zoom calls is an interesting observation, I’d not considered that previously. Is there no work around for that! Eg, create a smaller section of the monitor that is a more normal size/resolution that most folk would have and just share that? I’m sure what I’ve seen elsewhere was suggesting that this monitor is very flexible with the way you can divide the screen up.

[@JZStudiosonline]

There's a side by side mode where it acts as 2 monitors... side by side. Why no one uses it and then complains about not having it I don't understand. You just plug a second cable in and then hit a hotkey and it swaps between side by side and full screen in a couple seconds. Outside that, most screen sharing lets you pick program windows to share, selected screen area, or monitors instead of trying to show all of your monitors at once. It's a super dumb complaint with easy, obvious solutions. The fact he said a guy sold him one because he couldn't figure out screen sharing is ludicrous.

Screen sharing is not that bad. If you're not just sharing a single app or window, Zoom allows sharing a freely adjustable "screen area". I have the 38" Alienware ultrawide, and when I share my screen I just share an area that's roughly 75% of the full width.

[@Rockforce80]

The appeal of this monitor and the 38" ultrawides to me is the vertical field of view. I feel like the 49" super ultras and the like are just too short. The 38" ultras and this 57" super ultra are 15.5" tall in terms of active screen, that's about 2.4" taller than the 49 super ultras and 34 ultras. I really can feel it too. I tried a 49" super ultra as an upgrade from a 32" 4l screen and how squat the screen was is why I switched to the LG 38" after as it was very close to the vertical fov on a standard 32" while gaining the width I desired. I like having my vertical field of view totally useable and it definitely comes in handy with productivity work, allowing to fit maybe that one extra thing in the stack I need.

Curved monitors make viewing content with someone else a poor experience, too...

[@michaelherrickmusic]

My question with this monitor in relation to productivity is do actually get any more reel estate compared to a 5120x1440 monitor? I know you are running that resolution because your computer cant handle full resolution. But lets say you could run that full resolution, wouldnt you have to scale it to be able to read it? It seems like you would have to scale it to what is essentially the same size as 5120x1440, which means you're basically just getting a 5120x1440 monitor with higher pixel density, and not able to actually fit more on the screen

[@Digi20]

depends on your eye sight and distance, i like to scale 3840x2160 on a 32" to 125%, its still a bit more real estate than 2560x1440 (that would be a scaling to 150%). but you get the sharper image in any case.

This sounds like an ultimate productivity display. Hopefully they don't change it to OLED otherwise it would be destroyed relatively quickly in productivity use case. RTINGS runs a few OLED ultrawides (21:9) and their are getting some major burn in. Apparently if your content in full screen only displays at center (e.g. as 16:9) that causes it more burn in (as it drives that part of monitor more brighter). Mini-LED gives this a chance to survive longer (and you want that for this price).

32:9 screen sharing is really a pain in the *ss. My workaround was to share a single window, which size was a normal 16:9, so others could see better, but its not a perfect fix. The M1 mac not supporting this resolution is a surprise, I never heard anyone talking about this, thank you mentioning it! I have M1 max, and it doesn't support it... there is a workaround though, using it with PIP and 2 cables, but its not the same... If you wanna try it I am interested in your experiences :) It seems like M2 supports the full resolution but without hdPI, so the text will be very small...

How can you run it at 240Hz? Even with DP2.1 you do not have enough throughput for it right? DP2.1 is maxed out at 77.37 Gbps afaik At 10bit colour depth (3x10 because 3 colour channel): 7680 x 2160 x 3 x 10 x 240 bit bandwidth per second = 119.439... Gbps At 8bit colour depth: 7680 x 2160 x 3 x 8 x 240 = 95.551... Gbps ​​​​​​​Both are more than the cable can handle based on my understanding. Did I get anything wrong?

You need hdmi 2.1

[@GionSnow]

@@jchen_tech But HDMI 2.1 has even less throughput (48 Gbps)

I think that in order to run this monitor properly you need a pc with GPU with dp 2.1, which realistically is only 7900 xtx...?

[@chriswhitaker9720]

100% correct as my 7900xtx handles the resolution well
