SAMSUNG 34' Odyssey G5 Ultra-Wide Gaming Monitor with 1000R Curved Screen, 165Hz, 1ms, FreeSync Premium, Large Display, Eye Comfort, Multiple Ports, WQHD, LC34G55TWWNXZA, Black

Very nice monitor. The image quality is great and the screen is just wide enough to immerse you but not so wide you cant see all of it. The only issue I've had is some panel flickering after being on for long periods but it goes away after a restart.

This monitor is amazing for both gaming and work! The ultra-wide curved screen makes gameplay super immersive, and the 165Hz refresh rate with 1ms response time keeps everything smooth with no lag. The colors are vibrant, and the resolution is crisp, perfect for multitasking and streaming. Setup was easy, and the multiple ports are very convenient. Highly recommend for gamers and anyone needing a large, high-quality display.

Great bang for buck. Colors can seem a little ‘faded’ at times. You can always use the filters from the monitor itself to circumvent this. At the end of the day it is an entry level curved 2k monitor. Won’t find better quality for cheaper anywhere else. You will need to use your headset or get speakers because there’s none built into it.

The monitor looks good when it works. The button press control "stalk" is a pain in the butt, and gets in the way of any accessories (Tobii eye tracker, etc) due to placement. But the biggest issue is that it consistently refuses to power back on when the pc comes out of sleep mode. I have to physically unplug the power source to get it to power up. Rebooting the computer does nothing. It did not do this initially (purchased in October 2024), but is doing it more and more. I have had an open ticket for more than 6 months. Support is polite, but not effective. I am not waiting for a call from a service rep who according to the support rep is likely going to tell me to ship it to them so they can fix it then ship it back. This is a non-starter, I work from home and cannot be without a monitor. With an issue this on-going, I would have expected more significant action (cross ship replacement, etc), but this is not an option for the Samsung Support reps. At this point, I cannot recommend Samsung monitors and will be looking to replace with another brand I have had good luck with (Acer, Asus, etc).Update: After being told 2 times my device was out of warranty after only 7 months and being required to prove my purchase 2 times, I was told you expect a call arranging a home repair visit on one of three preferred days I had provided. Instead, I received a phone call asking to pay $329 for an "out of warranty" repair. After proving my purchase was in warranty a 3rd time, and bring disconnected twice, I was told that I would have to ship them the monitor for 2 to 3 weeks as they don't offer in home repair on Monitors of this size (34 inches). As the current owner of a Samsung TV, range and laundry appliances i can say unequivocally that they will never see another of my dollars. Service is horrendous. Don't buy this monitor or any of their other products.

Great monitor overall, but I took 1 star off because:- The power and overall control button is a knob on the bottom of the monitor. If you don't use a stand and are moving, you can't set it down without breaking the knob. Which means you can't change any settings.- When the monitor is in power save mode the little knob has a flashing blue light. Visually, not great, since I had this in my bedroom.- When the blue light flashes, it makes a high pitched noise as well with every flash. So again, not ideal for a bedroom unless you're manually turning it on and off every day.I probably wouldn't buy this one again, even though those are small-ish details.

This has been a fantastic monitor. It works great with my MacBook Pro (M3 Pro chip). Resolution is amazing, which I have had a hard time finding monitors that can mesh with Apple’s lack of monitor resolution support. Also works perfectly with my Huonuo mount.

Overall I'm a lot happier with this than an old 4k tv from walmart. Only complaints I have were the lackluster HDR, which I expected only being HDR10, and the color, which was a super easy fix. I just changed was color, I changed it to Cool 2 and set blue to 70 and it looks perfect now. No dead pixels or cracks to speak of, just some scratches on the frame from being a clutz installing it.Unlike what the other reviews say, the power LED can be turned off while the monitor is off, by going into system and scrolling all the way down, it shows "Power LED On", and set it to "Working," this will let the LED turn off while the monitor is off. Great for someone who has their computer in their room and likes it nice and dark while they sleep.Going from 60hz to 165 was a massive difference for me, it felt like the image was clearer sooner after moving. The curve isn't too much, but 1500r would have been nice. I haven't used it for any FPS games, because I have this installed on a monitor arm on my sim racing rig, but I imagine the experience would be great.As for racing, I think 21:9 is better as it's a more efficient use of screen space. How often do you look at the roof and dashboard of your car while driving? I don't look much personally, so I thought I would get rid of the unused space and get my monitor closer to the top of the wheel so it feels more immersive, but also keep a wider FOV to see more on the track.I bought this because it ticked all of my boxes; ultrawide, >100 PPI, IPS, >144hz, 1ms response time, and a nice curve. I would say if you can get it under $400 to go and snag one.

This monitor is awesome, I love the picture quality and how great it looks mounted on the arm support I have... the base it has in the box is plastic, I wish it was metallic or something but it's good. First time using an ultra-wide monitor and I just love it!!!
