Samsung Odyssey Neo G7 Review!

  • The Samsung Odyssey Neo G7 is a beast of a monitor with the best HDR experience I've had to date thanks to the 1000 nits and 1196 local dimming zones. This comes with a hefty price tag though so it finds itself in a niche place among monitors. I'm hoping there are some really good Black Friday sales this year so more people can pick this up because it looks incredible in person. Links are below if you want to get it now and if you have any questions about this let me know in the comment section.
    *This doesn't have PbP, only PiP, for those wondering which I would consider a slight downside if that's something you really need.

    Update to the HDR 2000, I saw the peak luminance on the spec sheet at 1000 nits and didn't see the Quantum HDR 2000. I checked out the review from Hardware Unboxed because they do very in depth testing and they were only able to get 1230 peak nits out of this monitor. So the HDR 2000 claim here is a little iffy in my opinion but I did misspeak in the video on this, my apologies.

    8 months later and this monitor is still unsurpassed in its category: that is true HDR without burn-in risk and text fringing. It seems like the market is going towards OLED which is great for gaming but terrible for productivity use. So if you are looking for a great gaming monitor that is also good for productivity, this is still the best pick IMO.

      @@DrakonR Do you own the monitor to be able to say that? Yes the curve feels extra but it is certainly not terrible. Bottom-line: If you want a 4k, HDR, high refresh rate monitor that doesn't risk burn-in, this is currently the only option.

      @@DrakonR I do like it a lot so I guess everyone is different. Regarding the curve i got used to it and I find it better than flat for some games (First person games mostly). My only complaint about this monitor is regarding the viewing angles: the content only looks good if you are looking at the screen dead-on.
      And there is no such thing as being "afraid of burn-in". It will happen at some point in the life of an oled product, the when depends on how and how often you use the screen. I use my screen a lot so I would get burn-in relatively rapidly.

      ​@@kirangalani6236mixed feelings, you know... It is the ABOSLUTELY BEAST in terms of picture quality. Seriously, i have never owned a better all-around display in my life (although i remember plasma tvs (and still have one in my country house) with true black and now i have two OLED TVs, but i'm not huge fan of them due to low peak brightness and fringing text render). Great brightness, contrast and local dimming works very well (however, you can still see some blooming in dark-desktop scenarios if you turn it at "high" settings... but i even find it nice sometimes to see highlighted mouse cursor, maybe i'm an idiot, but it looks interesting)) but if you turn it at "auto" setting it will remove blooming while keeping VERY GOOD black level with ALL scenarios, MILES BETTER than regular VA panels. Absolutely mind-blowing vs other VA panels. And keep in mind that there is NO smearing and ghosting at all! (i can't see anything at least) My IPS Acer Predator panel is slower than this one!
      Action games and movies are mind-blowing! HDR content is very good!
      BUT! On the other hand i still can't get used to that aggressive curve ;( it is my first curved display ever and sometimes it looks weird... Im not saying that it's unusable, but in work or casual desktop scenarios, or even if you play strategies or topdown-view rpgs it looks some kind of strange and unusual. However if you play action games (rdr2, tlou, horizon, gow, all-fps-titles, etc) it will give you solid boost to immersion vs flat panels.
      I'm getting used to this more and more everyday, but keep in mind that THIS point is MUCH more important than "bad view angles with VA" (it's overblown, yes). Honestly, if this one was flat i'd call this the BEST all-around monitor of all time, no doubt.
      But anyway we have no competitors in this field ;( Samsung is the ONLY manufacturere who offers 4k 144+hz 32' VA miniled monitors... All other competitors use miniled IPS panels with shitty contrast ratio, so we have not much to choose from ;(
      So, my conclusion is: if you're ok with curvatory, then THIS ONE is no brainer choice. Especially with current price drops. BUT! if you don't like curved displays, then you may come across some issues. I will say more: this is THE ONLY thing that you should keep in mind and consider to decide to buy this one or not. If you can live with it, there is no competitors, period.

    Just got mine at 800€ and here's a short feedback :
    - it wobbles a lot more than most of monitors
    - the buttons are not convenient, especially since the monitor moves a lot everytime you push a button
    - the leg part that supports it looks cheap considering the weight of the monitor
    - 1000R seems too much when used on desktop (does not bother me for video games or videos though) - 1500R seems to be the sweet spot to me
    - it takes much depth on the desk
    - colors seems OK, more accurate and homogeneous than the MSI 321CU as a comparison
    - the mini led clearly makes the difference compared to edge led (the black looks great)
    For that price I was expecting less drawbacks but it might be a valuable monitor.

      Some people have reported scanlines on the Neo G7 but apparently it is less noticeable than the G8 and not as widespread. On my older Samsung CRG9 (120hz) I only see scanlines on some Lagom LCD test patterns but never in real life content. The worst issue in the Odyssey VA lineup will be freesync/gsync flickering which is VA panel problem and can't be avoided on badly optimized games that stutter.

      @@Koodaris ​ @Le'Dawn Hey, yep i did buy one, its very nice. As for 1440p many games look totally fine, for example Borderlands 3, Cyberpunk, however older games can look bad, for example guild wars 2. Now i am not doing anything special with upscaling or such, i am just setting resolution. There are loads of high tech upscaling that can be done in nvidia control panel and such so I'm sure there are ways to make lower res look better. Also given the release of the 4000 series GPUS it seems 4k is getting easier and easier. But its a nice monitor i bought it for the HDR and such tech mainly.
      If you are running 1080p though normally, it might be too much of an upscale to 4k pixel density screen, this is where you get the bad effect as its having to stretch 1080p pixels over a 4k layout, im not sure of your system setup etc. Its hard to give advice on $1000 purchase i dont want anyone to be upset :) Check forums and such too for peoples advice there. :)

    Thanks for the review. Two of the G7s or a Neo G9? Thoughts. Replacing two 27" 2560 x 1440 60 Hz monitors and setting up a new system with 4090 GPU and 13th Gen i9 Intel CPU. Great insight on the jump from 1440 to 4K. I was wondering this, and like you, I felt the jump from 1080P to 1440P was significant. Not sure I need 4K, and I would only be able to game on one of the G7s. Some games take advantage of the entire 5120 x 1440 Neo G9 screen, which looks really cool. I am used to only gaming on one monitor now while I run things on my other one. It looked like you had both the G7 and G9 in place and could check them out.

      mixed feelings, you know... It is the ABOSLUTELY BEAST in terms of picture quality. Seriously, i have never owned a better all-around display in my life (although i remember plasma tvs (and still have one in my country house) with true black and now i have two OLED TVs, but i'm not huge fan of them due to low peak brightness and fringing text render). Great brightness, contrast and local dimming works very well (however, you can still see some blooming in dark-desktop scenarios if you turn it at "high" settings... but i even find it nice sometimes to see highlighted mouse cursor, maybe i'm an idiot, but it looks interesting)) but if you turn it at "auto" setting it will remove blooming while keeping VERY GOOD black level with ALL scenarios, MILES BETTER than regular VA panels. Absolutely mind-blowing vs other VA panels. And keep in mind that there is NO smearing and ghosting at all! (i can't see anything at least) My IPS Acer Predator panel is slower than this one! Action games and movies are mind-blowing! HDR content is very good! BUT! On the other hand i still can't get used to that aggressive curve ;( it is my first curved display ever and sometimes it looks weird... Im not saying that it's unusable, but in work or casual desktop scenarios, or even if you play strategies or topdown-view rpgs it looks some kind of strange and unusual. However if you play action games (rdr2, tlou, horizon, gow, all-fps-titles, etc) it will give you solid boost to immersion vs flat panels. I'm getting used to this more and more everyday, but keep in mind that THIS point is MUCH more important than "bad view angles with VA" (it's overblown, yes). Honestly, if this one was flat i'd call this the BEST all-around monitor of all time, no doubt. But anyway we have no competitors in this field ;( Samsung is the ONLY manufacturere who offers 4k 144+hz 32' VA miniled monitors... All other competitors use miniled IPS panels with shitty contrast ratio, so we have not much to choose from ;( So, my conclusion is: if you're ok with curvatory, then THIS ONE is no brainer choice. Especially with current price drops. BUT! if you don't like curved displays, then you may come across some issues. I will say more: this is THE ONLY thing that you should keep in mind and consider to decide to buy this one or not. If you can live with it, there is no competitors, period. I suggest to look at this in person, if you can.

      It would have very noticeable tape holding it on if it did.

    Is 500 on sale now a good price for it, I'm mounting it so I'll be fine and I'm not picky.

    Do u think the benq ex3210r or the more dense ex2710r va panel are that bad against this ? Here in europe the neo g7 cost 1450 euro and g8 1650 euro , the benq only 299 or 499 the 32 version
    I will use it only with series x , I'm scared about quality control of samsung

      The G7 is overkill for just playing on console. As long as those other monitors are native 4K 120hz with hdmi 2.1 it’ll be a good choice.

      I bought my neo g7 for 900€. Try to use a price tracker. I set the Limit to 999 and not a week later i got it for 902€ but in that moment you have to be fast... xD
