Fantastic Monitor
Firstly see my video on text sharpness, if that is a concern for you.SAMSUNG 32-Inch Odyssey G50D.Old monitor 24â 1080p.Good:1. Well worth the $279 I paid. Not worth $429, to me anyway.2. Greatly adjustable. Raise it. Tilt it. Turn it. I’ve been looking at monitors for a long time.One of the few 32″ with this much adjustability under $300.3. Colors are fantastic. Vibrant colors with several presets. White is white. Black is black.4. Text readability is fantastic.5. Streaming shows are fantastic!! Gordon Ramsay never looked better.6. GTA 5 ran great. Game looks sooo much better. Text is so much easier to read compared to old monitor.7. IMO this monitor would be great for 95% of the gamers. Probably will fall short for the elite players.Bad:1. Had a very hard time time getting display to power on. Screen kept telling me no signal. I tried the cable I had been using first. Then I tried the new cable that came with monitor (displayport), still nothing. I finally started moving cables around on the back of the video card (new 3060). There was only one port on card where the monitor would turn on. I feel the monitor should work no matter where its plugged in IMO. Never had this problem before. Also the power light has never came on.2. The ring that goes on the back and attaches to the monitor… I was never able to get it to attach. I spent a huge amount of time, then I threw it back in the box.These negatives did not affect the quality, just the time it took to figure it out. So , 5 stars.I tried this monitor because its brand new here, latest tech. (Risky? Now that I have it, NO!). Plus its a Samsung. Now that I have seen the new monitor against my old one. I want another new one⦠someday maybe.Whoever said size doesnât matter was way off. Must have been a guy, certainly not his wife.

Great monitor!
I don’t game a lot, but when I do, I like having everything set to Ultra. The monitor I had prior to this looked ok, but I felt like with everything set so high it should have looked better. I did some research and decided on this monitor. The difference is night and day. The image is so much sharper, the movements are so much more fluid. And the cure is more extreme, which took me a bit to get used to, but now I don’t think I could live without it. It makes seeing the entire screen so much easier. I would definitely recommend this monitor.

Great monitor so far
I picked up this 27â monitor from amazon on black friday for my new desk. It arrived quickly, no dead pixels i could spot so far, colors are vibrant and the screen is smooth. Currently i am using hdmi so it is 144hz, i need to get a display port adapter to enable 180hz. Hope this monitor lasts for a long time.

Good contrast and color in SDR mode
This IPS flat monitor does a good job in SDR mode at its native QHD resolution. I didn’t want a curved monitor. Good contrast and color. As others have noted, it was challenging installing the plastic cover over the rear attachment. Once assembled, the monitor has good height adjustment. One design problem is that the ports are somewhat obstructed by the stand. The ports should have been offset to one side for better cable clearance. Has low end HDR but IPS monitors aren’t purchased for HDR performance. Monitor has Gsync compatibility but no certification. I turned on adaptive sync, 180 Hz, and configured it for both full screen and windowed, with Nvidia CP, but didn’t see any improvement when running Red Dead Redemption 2. Screen tearing still occurred. Had to turn of Vsync in game to eliminate the tearing. Monitor is pretty good value on sale at $280. The normal price of over $400 is too high.

Screen flickering
So this monitor screen flickers all the time with white lines but its not consistent and it also powers off from time to time. Thatâs a real problem when playing a game.I run dual monitors and when this happens the other monitor does not do this nor did the monitor that this one replaced. So I updated all the drivers to the computer and video cards as well (Iâm running duel video cards as well). No change.So I swapped out the HDMI cables going to the video cards. No change.I then decided that maybe I need a new HDMI cable, so I order a new cable and replaced it. No change.So called Samsung and they take all the info and then proceed to tell me that I need to video this thing while itâs doing this and they would send me a text that I needed to use. Now like I said itâs not consistent. So after spending some, no a lot of time trying to do this with no luck. So I just toke a picture of it and tried to use the link they sent me. So I start filling out the info and half way trough this link it keeps freezing up. So here I go again and call them back yet again.So after holding forever I get to explain this whole process to a new person because they donât seem to have any notes on this. This new person wants me to hook the monitor to another computer and see if it does the same thing.Now this whole process takes A LOT of time. Not a few minutes or hours, this process takes WEEKS. So I tell them Iâm not doing this. My other monitors have no problems and they are years old with no problems AT ALL.So now Iâm having to send them the monitor back and see if they can fix it while I wait and see what happens. Now remember this thing flickering and powering off isnât consistent so how knows if they find the problem. My guess they wont and Iâll get the same broken monitor back and Iâll get to have all this fun AGAIN.I guess the point to all this is if your going to buy a monitor from Amazon I hope you get a good one. Because if you donât youâll get to join me in all this fun.

I grabbed this monitor to use as a vertical monitor since the stand allows it without having to buy another monitor arm. I havenât used it for gaming as it just has my twitch chat up and such but it would be pretty good I would assume since the specs suggest that. Got it on sale and would highly recommend.

Al principio con la configuración de fábrica no me gustó, pero es cuestión de saberlo configurar inclusive detecta los juegos en HDR y se ven muy bien, para eso se desactiva el free sync, al contrario para juegos competitivos sin HDR con Free sync vuela

WOW!This monitor has succeeded my expectations, I was nervous after seeing some of these reviews. But let me tell you. Once you get this monitor you will never be able to go back to a 32inch or less.I bought this monitor to be my main monitor for streaming/playing games as I wanted that extended view.First off, I love that Its 165hz. I have the option to go less as well but as my computer can handle this I have it set to the 165hz.The colors are bright and vibrant. I am using the Freesync and I see absolutely no tearing in games of any kind. Motion blur isn’t a problem either. The screen Brightness is perfect and has night mode for all of us gamers who enjoy being awake when no one else is.I have this connected to a freestanding stand, I decided not to use the stand it came with as it fits with all my other monitors this way better and I can turn the screen as needed. So I cannot comment on the stand.The power button is on the very bottom middle and also serves as the joystick to navigate the menu.Freesync has been working great. Also what I didn’t see in the description is that this monitor does have the option to put a crosshair on the screen, there are a few to choose from and you can move it around to get the perfect spot for your game. You can also adjust the Black level to either be brighter or darker. This affects things like shadows and can make enemies easier to see.My overall mark of this monitor would be a 10/10. Samsung out did themselves.

Excelente monitor, muy buen tiempo de respuesta y la imagen es hermosa, por el precio si esperarÃa al menos que trajera conexión usb c con hub u otro display port, pero de ahà en fuera lo recomiendo 100%Lo que dirÃa también es un punto malo, es la base, en el manual dice que se puede ajustar la inclinación, pero esto no es verdad y el peso del monitor hace que este tenga una ligera inclinación, está muy pensando para que le compres un monitor arm o lo montes en la pared, esto último es lo que haré yo, ya que si no quedas a la altura correcta si es muy incómodo después de un rato.En general es un 8.9/10, el monitor no es uno de gama baja mi media, ya es de gama alta, otros monitorea que están en el mismo precio traen por lo menos hub usb, más de un display port o bocina, esperarÃa al menos uno de estos por el precio, la base deja mucho que desear, pues eso se tener que gastar en un brazo por qué no se puede ajustar cuando otros del mismo precio o menores si, es bastante molesto.Lo que si es que a pesar de lo anterior no puedo ni quejarme, es un excelente producto, tiene muy buena imagen, el acabado mate de la pantalla ayuda mucho si estás cerca de una ventana o tienes focos justo atrás de ti (este es mi caso) dado que no se refleja nada, los acabados son buenos, el botón de navegación tiene buen feedback, el freesync funciona bien, todo es excelente en este monitor, lo recomiendo al 100% si lo encuentras por el precio que yo de $14,500 pesos mexicanos, ya que por lo que tiene a 18mil que lo venden en la página de samsung, ya déjame hace mucho.
