[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Having three of the 27” G5 Odyssey Gaming Monitors on a 3 monitor stand, the experience is truly immersive. For gaming, the 144 Hz, Freesync experience is second to none when paired with my mainstream AMD gaming computer. One wish, however, is having the monitor become undetected on the one input when set to the other. For example, when one monitor's set to HDMI for my work computer and two others are set to my gaming computer over DisplayPort, Windows on my gaming computer still detects three usable monitors. All in all, I enjoy my 27” G5 Odyssey Gaming Monitors.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I mainly use it for gaming and live streaming sometimes on Facebook, but having a matter that goes up to 240 HZ per second is the best thing ever. Only thing I'm waiting for now is 4K at 240 Hertz 😍

GREAT FOR GAMING

Samsung Odyssey G5 screen getting off the frame

It is a nice monitor, but has an engineering defect. After about 7 month of usage the screen is getting of the frame. This is a commune issue and the customer support is dogging the fact that Samsung has a manufacture defect. You can search online and see that there are thousands of customers with exact same issue in exact same spot. Don't buy it.

Flawless Experience

I bought the 27" Odyssey G5 monitor (LC27G55TQWNXZA) back in November of 2020 and just decided to come back and leave a review. At this point, I've gamed on it for hundreds of hours and it's still going strong. At 144 hz the monitor still looks great No dead pixels or issues of any sort. 100% recommend this product.

Great monitor overall

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I use this monitor daily for gaming. streaming, 3d design for my printers. The picture has a little to be desired when it comes to the hdr brightness but it is beautiful. The extreme curvature of the screen really makes the monitor feel almost projected around you. The only gripe I really have is the stand. The legs are long and awkwardly pointy while the movement is limited to just a tiny degree of tilt with no vertical movement. Other than that very solid and would recommend.
