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

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.

Graphics are good! Super convenient for large spreadsheets. It was a good price point and compatible with multiple monitors. Works great. Can fit 3 windows at a decent size across it.

Beautiful monitor, clear picture, vivid colors, lot of space to work with without needing a second monitor, perfect for gaming and working.

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.

I played cyberpunk 2077, everspace 2, Rust, valorant and several other games on this monitor and I didn't experience any of the ghosting that the other reviews complained about. I did a ghosting test online and it was negligible at best.This monitor is the best I've ever had, I put an ergonomic monitor vesa mount to make this thing rotate and line up perfectly with my head to remove neck cramps from looking up too much. The monitor stand it came with was flimsy but not terrible, however I don't use it now that I have the vesa mount.I've watched several movies on this with Plex and the auto aspect ratio is actually pretty decent which is surprising considering most movies have black bars to create the right ratio.Playing games in this thing is very immersive. The refresh rate is great with 165hz, and little customizing is needed out of the box to get it just right. With a high end graphics card like from Nvideas RTX line, you can't go wrong. I'm using an Nvidiea RTX 2070 super and this thing looks great. I even use it with my Mac Pro 2013 model and it also looks great, and it auto changes the display correctly so Windows or Mac this thing looks great.No more need for dual screens, just open two windows and put them side by side, its essentially the same thing, but now theres no plastic bar inbetween the two screens, just one seemless experience.If you are looking for the best monitor screen, I think this is it so far, especially price wise. I know there are better monitors that exist with better specs or bigger sizes, but this is really all the retail space you'll ever need. I even find myself using it for movies, even though I have a 55 inch Samsung 4kHDTV which is surprising.Don't believe the haters, just get it and return it if you don't like it, but I think this is definitely a solid product that you will enjoy for years to come, and Samsung is a great company, great customer service, and high build qualities that last for a decade or more.
