Samsung Odyssey G5 LC32G55TQWRXXU 32" 1000R Curved Gaming Monitor - 144Hz, 1ms, 1440p QHD, Freesync Premium, HDR10, HDMI, Displayport, Black

Best monitor I’ve ever had, great quality and video so your videos/games just look so good. You can adjust things on it like your brightness and so on by using the button at the bottom of the monitor, easy to connect to your PC tower and the curved screen just makes you feel more immersed when playing games in my opinion. Definitely good value for money as years down the line this monitor is still going strong for me, no issues with it whatsoever and I’ll continue to use it until it sees its last day.

So after researching for weeks which curved 1440p monitor I should go for I decided to go for this as there was a good offer on it and I must say I was not disappointed!Initially thought the 1000R curvature would be too much, I now realized it is not and for gaming it really is impressive!Some reviews say, that one of the big cons with this monitor is that the it is not bright enough, but I would say as long as your not planning to do Outdoor gaming in the sun, you'll be fine,lol. I personally usually play at nights anyway or if daytime, I pull the curtains to make the room dark and I really can't fault the monitor. I had no issues in games like warzone or even vermintide 2, which has a lot dark areas.All in all, a really impressive monitor and Samsung lives up to its' name!

The above photo shows a regular Samsung office monitor vs the "gaming" odyssey. It is substantially bigger than a regular monitor and so has a bigger power draw and lower efficiency rating which is understandable.I would like to start off by saying this is just my experience and I cant speak for everyone but here's my scope:The monitor itself has amazing pictures quality, it works amazingly with raytracing and even just regular graphics cards which really helps you get more value for lonely out of your gpu as well.The screen itself is not the brightest which for some is apparently an issue but it does look really good, especially with games like cyberpunk that have a metallic glare on objects and I find that at times it can even be too bright. That is just me though, however I think its the right amount of brightness.It also comes with a really nice quality hdmi cable and a very sturdy stand.The downsides :When I got the monitor it would not let me set it to 144hz despite trying windows and nividia control panel the option just wasn't there and so I had to manually add it on which seemed a bit off to me but I'm not aware of anyone else having this issue.Furthermore, the stand is not adjustable in the slightest so you better love the way it comes or you'll have to spend extra for the comfort of adjusting, it's not too much of a bother though since the screen is huge and the curve is really immersive so I see why it is the way it is.Speaking of the stand, it is difficult to get your cables in so I'd suggest plugging them in then sliding the stand in, however however stand does come with a nice cable grip on the back which is a nice feature to help your desk stay tidy.In addition to this, the colours on the monitor seem a bit watercoloured, as you can see In the picture linked the colours are a but green grayer and slightly more dull but it still performs extremely well in games, apart from dark shadowy areas which do give off a gross discolouration.Overall I'd say this is a good monitor, definitely one of the better budget monitors when on sale.

I'm giving it 5 stars cause the monitor itself is amazing, the complaint is more regarding one of the monitors I ordered. So I ordered 2 of the monitor, one which I eventually got refunded and one I actually intended to use, and for the one that I actually use works great, looks stunning and has 0 issues with it. Now onto the main point, from the particular seller that I ordered the first monitor from (the one I refunded), the delivery was absolutely awful and was full of delays with no real description of why it was delayed, when it was initially ordered, there was no confirmed date in when it would arrive, and when it did arrive, just to test it out I set it up and there was this very annoying diagonal white line at the bottom right corner of the screen, and the box it came in was full of holes. Been trying to return it, since I got it refunded after being annoyed it was just getting delayed, but it's been so awkward because when I order a Hermes guy to come pick it up, they don't actually come, and I can't take it to any shops for return because it's too big
