Description

Description

The Samsung Odyssey G5 is primarily aimed at demanding gamers who are looking for a high-performance monitor for gaming, video, and general use. With its high refresh rate and low input lag, it offers quick responses and high performance in games such as FPS, racing, and fighting. It features an impressive curved screen, unique Core lighting design, immersive WQHD resolution with HDR technology for vivid scenes on your screen, as well as a 1ms response time and FreeSync Premium for smooth gaming.

What's new compared to the Samsung Odyssey G5 G55T

  • Refresh Rate: Upgrade from 144Hz to 165Hz, offering even smoother motion in fast-paced action scenes.

  • Panel Quality: Uses an improved VA panel with superior color performance and increased brightness compared to the first model in the series.

  • HDR Support: Upgraded HDR10 processing that delivers more vibrant colors and better contrast in dark areas of games.

  • Design: More robust build quality and refined frame finish, while maintaining the pronounced 1000R curvature for maximum immersion.

  • Software & Features: Newer firmware with improved Black Equalizer, allowing the user to see more details in dark areas without distorting the overall image.

Immerse yourself in the game

The high-performance 1000R panel automatically transports you to the heart of the battle as it matches the curvature of the human eye to offer you the ultimate gaming experience while minimizing eye strain.

Refresh Rate 144Hz

With a refresh rate of 144Hz, transitions, even the fastest ones, become extremely smooth, and you can now perceive every tiny detail that can make you a dominant force on the battlefield.

Response time 1ms

A fraction of a second is enough to fall behind your opponents. For this reason, the Odyssey features a 1ms response time to ensure that information reaches you as quickly as technologically possible.

AMD FreeSync

Thanks to AMD FreeSync Premium technology, transitions even in the fastest action scenes become extremely smooth as the refresh rate of the graphics card is synchronized with the monitor to minimize "tearing," flickering, and input delays in the image.

Impressive WQHD Resolution

The universe of your favorite game comes to life before your eyes with WQHD resolution, which has 1.7 times the pixel density of Full HD screens. WQHD resolution has every reason to boast of its extremely detailed image with incredible color accuracy. The action takes on a new meaning as you now have a large field of view to fully enjoy your game.

Graphics that give you the edge

HDR technology with a rich kaleidoscope of shadows makes your game more vivid and intense by revealing what is hidden in the shadows, offering an image with strong contrasts with deep shades of black and bright shades of white for impressively detailed resolution that always keeps you one step ahead of the rest.

    My panel burned out in 6 months. One day I turned it on and it showed a black vertical line. I do not recommend it to anyone.

    Very good monitor, I use it daily for games and work, I have it for about a year and I have no problems. The only thing I don't particularly like is how huge the stand is and how much space it takes up on the desk, but at least it is incredibly stable

    This review is about the size: 27 "

    After 3 years the panel burned out (it has a two-year warranty while most monitors have 3) without even much use, not like it was in an Internet cafe or an office being used all day. The curved design is nice, I won't deny that, but now that I got an AOC IPS I understand the difference and why most people criticize VA panels. I think the panel's problems are now well known and Samsung does not admit its mistakes; when I called them, they even asked for 50 euros for the visit. Note that it was bought for 220 euros—I wouldn't recommend it even at 170
