Got this one a month ago. First I thought it was an overkill (came from 32" IPS LG). Then I got rid of the stand and bought a wall mount which moved the monitor another 10cm away. Now I have the monitor cca 110 cm from my eyes. And it became small over that month. Would go for 48" if it wasn't OLED. Anyway, this G7 is a little slow when changing modes but I can live with that. What I noticed and is apparent also in Viktor's video is that the edges of the screen are a little dimmer, like 5mm from the end of the screen. Not an issue but it is noticable on a white screen, and on windows bars using light theme. You can also notice some BGR issues on text but it is manageable. Overall, great monitor. I have another month to return it but I'll most likely keep it as there is no comparable alternative. Went for 4090 so relatively big 4K is a must.
Can you please show some 'real world' usage of this monitor for things like browsing RUclips or text? Would love to get this monitor, but I need it for productivity purposes as much as I do for gaming. You've done a great job showing off the monitor for gaming purposes, but it's unlikely anyone is getting a monitor like this exclusively for gaming.
OLED burn in is defos a great point to mention especially for pc users who have static menus, desktop interfaces. Mini LED and even older QLEDs dont have this problem.
I just ordered it 500 dollars 4k it was a good pair for my 7900 XTX. It seems like an overall solid pick for the resolution and price. I loved this review it's for normal people that just do normal things all the other reviews were trashing on this monitor and it's just doing things that I expect from VA.
Guys i have this monitor and scrolling down gives eye fatigue if you just play or watch its very good and you dont see smearing or ghosting trails effect, but with productivity and scrolling down text it's not very pleasing experience, its quite nice but it could have been way better thanks for the video Viktors!
oh and i love how you start your video with a lets go then taking off in the cockpit of the plane..haha love it. great review man keep up the great work subbed
@@DisplayRealitythanks mate, really good honest review . I ended up buying the ew3280u benq as I wanted it for immersion just for certain games and watching stuff, but was disappointed when I got it so I’m sending that back, I prefer a VA for sure. Plus it was turning my other benq mobuiz on and off as the remote is the same😮 I’m hoping my series S and ps4 pro look good on this Samsung as well? Thanks for the response mate. I appreciate it being all the way over here in Scotland 🏴
Great review, I was on the fence based on reddit reports of ghosting but went ahead and ordered it based on your findings as all I care about is in game performance. How is input lag? Particularly curious how much it improves over the qn90b 43" in that regard.
I gave your video a dislike because I'm sick and tired of youtubers sending out bad messages to viewers. I own a G8 34 inch and I love the sound from the speakers and integrated streaming apps. It might not be for you but to some people it's handy and useful, Samsung is giving you a lot of bang for buck and I like it.
What issue did I present in the video that you did not like? I did not ever say the speakers are bad on this or the G8 oled. So I do not know what you mean.
You need to try the Innocn 27M2V (or the 32" variant, but both have the same amount of dimming zones (1152), so blooming is less noticeable on the 27". I thought the 32" Neo G7 was going to be irreplaceable for me for a while, but the 27M2V changed that (although the HDMI seems buggy right now, so, for the 27" version at least, I would only recommend this for P.C./display port). I think you'd love it.
I was actually thinking of the ktc 576 mini led at 27". Tho the innocn 27" i cant seem tonfind on amazon or anywhere else. I did nee 1 vid on the 27" looks good. But still seeing on reddit some flickering issues on all these innoxn, ktc and cooler master monitors. Tho If i can find the innocn ill try to get.
@@DisplayReality Yeah, I guess I got lucky in getting it when I did (due to it now being so hard to find). I haven't had any issues with it on P.C. (using the display port), but it is currently is buggy with the PS5 and Xbox Series X when using HDR. Also, the blooming is a little more noticeable than on the Neo G7, but there isn't a brightness limiter, so that's probably why. It still isn't bad though and does not bother me in the least.
I will prob live stream this monitor this sat.. but so far its a great monitor. Once a sale hits its a great monitor. Even at 1k for a 43" its an option vs the more expenive smaller tvs.
@@DisplayReality aah great. It’s available at 950$ here in India. I am just worried about white washing and viewing angles because I will use it to code 70% of the times. Same worry with the neo g7 32 inches. I hope you can shed some light about it ?
At the current price of 499(best buy) this is a great monitor. I'm buying it to replace my msi mpg 34 in wide screen monitor that my gf uses. I know it's nothing compared to my G8, but at that price point you can't go wrong.
The automation plus does make a massive difference even when used as a monitor and for this to be missing that compared to older tvs has defos put me off. I have two 65 inch QLEDs and full automation plus is a game changer
Hi Victor! I was wondering if you could give me more info on the “flex move screen” feature of this monitor? How do you access it? And does gsync work well while using that feature? I ordered one and it gets here at the end of the month and was curious. Great video and thank you!
The flex I did just try it. Basically in the options menu you can move the picture anywhere on screen at a smaller size. Now I did not try 2 inputs or multiview (not sure if it even works) but say you wanted a 32" etc... you can move the screen anyhwere on the monior. Since its a 43" you get alot of space..
@@DisplayReality Thank you for checking that! In your opinion, do you think when sizing down to say 32” does the content on screen look just as clear as in the full 43”? Wasn’t sure if content loses it’s clarity when using flex move screen.
Thanks for the detail. How does it compare to KTC G42P5 OLED? You made a great case for NEO G7 43. Just trying to figure out trade offs with USB-C charging & KVM. But you get a monitor for the picture. lol!
Год назад+1
In fast pacing game there is clear blur... I had VA panel and i sold it for IPS. It was only 230 euro was for that matter but difference is visible. I would very much like to buy this or Gigabyte FV43U but i'm affraid of ghosting cause price of those hear is not low
Considering to get this for my office. Multi use, video, productivity and gaming. It's a very bright room with lots of natural light. Do you think this monitor would suit? If not which would you suggest?
Ended up returning mine as just could not handle the amount of ghosting/smearing while doing work, reading emails and just overall surfing the internet. Its a great gaming monitor though so its close. Plus the UI is pretty clunky switching inputs as say compared to the LG OLED monitors with their remote
I honestly dont have an issue but I also dont work or wouldnt work on this specific monitor. I can make a specific video or couple tests if u need. Let me know
@@DisplayReality Yes could you please do a text/font test for this ? I think many people will purchase this instead of LG C2 so that they can use it as a normal PC monitor for web browsing and work as well.
So I bought this after watching this review and while I am overall pleased with the performance, I have 2 deal breaking issues: 1. I cannot for the life of me get the monitor to wake up properly (no signal) after my PC has gone idle and turned off the displays. I know this is a monitor issue, because my second monitor next to it wakes up just fine. 2. The monitor randomly resets my brightness settings (no this is not local dimming or auto brightness) There seems to be no information related to these issues on the interwebs, so I am strongly considering returning it.
I have the same issue . Monitor won’t wake up after pc power settings turns it off. My other monitor turns on automatically. The only way to turn it on is activate/ deactivate HDR in windows
I have the same problem. Using DisplayPort and tried all the ports. Support troubleshooting for 2 hours and they are like the problem is your PC and not our monitor. BS samsung support is of no assistance. Also this thing has a slow interface that has ads. I connected a 2nd monitor and the 2nd monitor wakes up just fine. I also am thinking about returning this monitor. Windows Key + Alt + B is the hdr shortcut in windows 11.
I am thinking of getting either this model monitor or LG - UltraGear 45" OLED Curved. I will mostly be using them for computer use and some light console gaming. any suggestions or advice?
Hey, I'm planning to purchase this product, I am looking for a specific PC monitor that is both for gaming with faster response time and High HZ between 144HZ-240HZ and 4K which also has the SmartTV OS and I am debating between the Monitor here and between the Samsung Odyssey G7 S28BG700EP 4K which is also with SmartTV OS but a little smaller and is an IPS panel, compared to MINI LED here, Should I pay more for this Monitor? G70NC (S43CG700) is it truly worth it? Are there any advantages visually and in terms of response time? Is the panel considered a significant upgrade? Another thing, I plan to upgrade my GPU from 980TI to RTX 4080 and the G70NC screen (S43CG700) does not support G-SYNC. Is this something significant or is it possible to manage with FreeSYNC on NVIDIA cards and it will give the same result as the G-SYNC?
Hi, great review! I am looking at purchasing triple 43" monitors, primarily for simracing (iRacing & ACC), but I'm also a huge Gran Turismo fan, so Burn in is a serious issue for me. I currently own a single ASUS XG43UQ, but its picture is disappointing, and the bezels are way too thick for triples. You've answered most of my questions here, but I have one more: I know it only says it supports FreeSync, but I was wondering if it still supports Gsync as some other NEO monitors do even though they don't mention it? I'm asking as I'm running a 4090. If not, do you have any other recommendations? (Remembering burn in & bezel width, Gsync much desired) 43" is the perfect size for me as it's big enough for my console racing/gaming on the single centre, but not too big for triples. 32/34" just doesn't cut it for competitive racing Esports when using a single monitor with my simrig.
Thanks for the detailed review I have been looking forwarded to this. Its a shame it doesn't deliver the amazing response times on Samsung's smaller VAs. Its nice to have a competitor to the FV43U and the QN90b even if its not the response time upgrade we hoped for.
I bought this monitor last week for $499 and it's already boxed back up to be returned tomorrow. The software is a mess. The issue that was the deciding factor to return it was when my PC would go to sleep and I would wake up my PC the monitor would turn on but then go directly to the screen with the countdown because no external device was found. I would either need to unplug and replug the HDMI/DP cable or power off my PC. I tried about five of each, HDMI 2.1 (certified) and DP 1.4 cables just to make sure it wasn't a cable issue.
ODYSSEY NEO G7 43" , m28u , dell 3223q or oddysey g7 28", which one would you prefer? They all same price. I will use it with rtx4080 and ps5 as a main monitör. I can't realy decide. Can you help?
Hey Vik! There’s a specific feature that I really like on this monitor as as well as the odyssey ark and that’s the option to be able to resize the screen. I like a large monitor to work on and a 27 inch to game on w console. Do you know of any other monitors that have this feature? 4k with hdmi 2.1. I have been looking for an article that would list monitors with this feature but there isn’t one. Thanks for your help in advance
Went from a Samsung 49" CRG9 (5120x1440) to this one. The ghosting is pretty bad on this screen. Not sure if it's bad enough for me to return it yet. The picture also looks like crap out of the box - but it can be adjusted to the point where it really looks fantastic. Very pleasantly surprised by the black levels and the colors look spectacular. Really wish it had less ghosting though. Surely a deal breaker for many gamers. It's the only real issue I have with it so far. I do not care for the TV style menus either, but I can live with it. They also could have thrown some physical buttons on the monitor - not even a power button to speak of. If you lose the remote, you are out of luck.
Changing the color gamut seems to make it faster or shall we say less processing. Thats the only thing I have been able to find. Tho I like that color pop of neo qled so I dont use it
@@DisplayReality That's a good tip, but like you say, the colors are one of the main draws of this monitor. That, and the black levels, for me. Wish my Vive Pro 2 VR headset had the same black levels (my original Vive Pro had OLED panels, will definitely be missing those now).
Out of curiosity what's the connectivity of this Monitor? How many HDMI 2.1 ports? Also I especially would like to know does it a Digital Optical Audio Output port (SPDIF)?
I have a 50" neo qled. I also find the tv menus annoying. Every time you turn it on, the pop-up TV menus sit there for about 5 seconds too. Right in your way. Also, the TV doesn't show the pc boot up sequence at all.. no boot, no post, no menus.. when there is a boot issue.. you get blue screen.
Just an fyi, in the video you said the monitor had 360 local dimming zones, but I someone I know contacted Samsung to ask them about it and they said the monitor actually has 1196 zones. Maybe your info is accurate, but just wanted to let you know
So which one would you recommend for gaming. Neo g7 32 the Neo g8 or this 43. I want something with good blacks. I know op-eds are the best but I just can’t get over how low in brightness they r. I want something over 144 hrz with 4k. Price not an issue or size.
Ill try for a vs vid with the neo g8 but from all 3 I prefer the Neo G7/8. They have better panel speed and have brighter highlights. But this size is nice as many want a bigger experience. The only nicer option would be say an oled C3 42" with updated smart features. But that burn in may still be an issue.
@@DisplayReality just want to see normal pc use surfing the web youtube desktop use. text on web pages. etc. i am using the 32950b for general use and a 42c2 for pc gaming. but am interested in this display also. for general pc use the 32950b rocks. more real estate is always good. but not wasting my money if it cant top the 32950b for everyday use as a pc monitor thanks for the reply nice vids.
Generally no issues which matter. You might encouter some text-sizing issues but the reason would be more likely the scaling function in Win 10, rather than the BGR matrix itself despite there are rare occasions when I'd blame the BGR. Rumor has it that it have been (almost) resolved in Win 11. Haven't tried it though.
Hello. now on amazon it is on sale 699$.is this monitor best for this price? i am looking for 32 inch or bigger monitor for everyday use and also for gaming. will be this monitor good for my situation, also i consider Gigabyte fv43u.
Just got this for 450 open box from best buy. If i like it I'ma take the Sony m9 back. 4k on a 27" just doesn't look clear to me. Pixels probably so cramped up in that small screen.
What are the best 32 inches 1440p 144hz monitor right now? I don't play competitive games, I play mostly RPGs like FFXIV and AAA games, I prefer image quality than lots of FPS.
I bought Neo G7 on January actually I could say I bought 3 of them because two of them I returned first had scratches on the back and around the panel back not putted together properly (manufacturers problem). Second had 9 dead pixels so finally 3rd one was good and I can say neo7 is incredible monitor 👍👍 It's super bright I putted the brightness on 90% not even 100%
If in game mode: Hold the play pause button (to the right) hold for a couple of secs, of normal mode hold the Home button (middle house looking button) for a couple of secs.
Brother, cordial greetings, thanks again for your videos. Brother I am using the LG C2 42" as a monitor but I was thinking of buying the video monitor should I change or do you think it is not necessary.
oled fast and top contrast but u can get burn in and often very glossy. va panel more ghosting no burn in usualy not glossy. for console i would go for the oled for pc i would go for va panel since there are alot of static elements on in windows and so an. but it all depends on what priorities are.
Innocn 27M2Vis where its at. 1152 dimming zones on a 27 is crazy good. I've had the monitor for a couple months and it works flawlessly with my PS5,Xbox series X, steam deck and 4090. Truly an unbelievable monitor. Doesn't even compare with to Samsung monitors; it beats it in every way.
@@DisplayReality Im pretty sure the Red Magic uses the same panel. I am playing Days Gone again on this monitor and and I'm like wow; this is how HDR is supposed to look with absolutely no blooming. Of course the big HDR test is alway Resident Evil Village with its super dark atmosphere. This monitor passes with flying colors. I would say go with the Innocn considering they are the parent company; which I learned in the last few months. I had never heard of Innocn before my purchase. The more research I did I found that the Innocn was a better choice when it came to the infamous "panel lottery" lol . Like no dead pixels or any issues with the panel at all. Which I am so picky about. Great video's man. I watch them all! Ps---(The controls on the Innocn and Red magic are super old school. Lol you will see what I mean when you buy one; but you get use to it)
You state quite clearly in your opening remarks that the Odyssey Neo 7 IS A TV NOT A MONITOR. You can't showcase features and capabilities that don't exist. We can therefore assume that this is the reason other "reviews" of this TV never bothered to document the multitude of deficiencies and missing features that must be corrected before it can legitimately qualify a monitor.. Samsung has gone to such great lengths to label what is clearly a "TV" as a "monitor" in its product descriptions, marketing and outrageously high pricing that it begs the question: How big of a lie does a corporation have to tell before it is called to account by the Justice Department... Just so we are clear the Samsung Odyssey Neo G7 IS NOT A MONITOR! It is, as the author admits, in point of fact nothing more than another stripped down and overpriced TELEVISION masquerading as a "monitor"... The reason that so many comments claiming this is basically a QN43QN90B/C have popped up all over the net is simple: Samsung's marketing department is hoping that these comments will lend justification for the high pricing and complete lack of a monitor feature set...I admit to initially having erroneously concluded this myself. Just an FYI: The reason that TV manufacturer's operating systems are slowing down is simple. Every extra second they can force users to view their advertising is over time worth millions of dollars in ad revenue...
Which neo G7? The 32"? Make sure you dont have any lcd repair or diagnostics going on. Try disconnecting all cables for 20 min. That will hard reset it.
Under the game mode section. The 4th option in the menu. You can turn it off or change the colors. I like red as its the brightest but I turn it off sometimes too.
I’m sorry but the qn90c was horrible I returned it and ended up sticking with the c2 even with the risk of burn in I just bought the extended warranty and it was still cheaper.

1. I cannot for the life of me get the monitor to wake up properly (no signal) after my PC has gone idle and turned off the displays. I know this is a monitor issue, because my second monitor next to it wakes up just fine.
2. The monitor randomly resets my brightness settings (no this is not local dimming or auto brightness)
There seems to be no information related to these issues on the interwebs, so I am strongly considering returning it.
Use DP or hdmi port 1
I have the same issue . Monitor won’t wake up after pc power settings turns it off. My other monitor turns on automatically. The only way to turn it on is activate/ deactivate HDR in windows
I have the same problem. Using DisplayPort and tried all the ports. Support troubleshooting for 2 hours and they are like the problem is your PC and not our monitor. BS samsung support is of no assistance. Also this thing has a slow interface that has ads. I connected a 2nd monitor and the 2nd monitor wakes up just fine. I also am thinking about returning this monitor. Windows Key + Alt + B is the hdr shortcut in windows 11.
Is this BGR like the others? Or did they rotate the display and get RGB?
I am thinking of getting either this model monitor or LG - UltraGear 45" OLED Curved. I will mostly be using them for computer use and some light console gaming. any suggestions or advice?
Can you tell us about multi view ability for this monitor using two hdmi or display port inputs? Is it possible? What are the limitations?
Very good review
Hey, I'm planning to purchase this product, I am looking for a specific PC monitor that is both for gaming with faster response time and High HZ between 144HZ-240HZ and 4K which also has the SmartTV OS and I am debating between the Monitor here and between the Samsung Odyssey G7 S28BG700EP 4K which is also with SmartTV OS but a little smaller and is an IPS panel, compared to MINI LED here, Should I pay more for this Monitor? G70NC (S43CG700) is it truly worth it? Are there any advantages visually and in terms of response time? Is the panel considered a significant upgrade?
Another thing, I plan to upgrade my GPU from 980TI to RTX 4080 and the G70NC screen (S43CG700) does not support G-SYNC. Is this something significant or is it possible to manage with FreeSYNC on NVIDIA cards and it will give the same result as the G-SYNC?
I'm wondering this too, I don't see this monitor on Nvidea's G-SYNC monitors page. Can you still force it and will this result in a bad sync?
I have a oddysey 49” but intressting in the 43” as im Tired of the ultra wide.
How would i like this just compared of picture quality?
Hi, great review!
I am looking at purchasing triple 43" monitors, primarily for simracing (iRacing & ACC), but I'm also a huge Gran Turismo fan, so Burn in is a serious issue for me. I currently own a single ASUS XG43UQ, but its picture is disappointing, and the bezels are way too thick for triples.
You've answered most of my questions here, but I have one more:
I know it only says it supports FreeSync, but I was wondering if it still supports Gsync as some other NEO monitors do even though they don't mention it?
I'm asking as I'm running a 4090.
If not, do you have any other recommendations? (Remembering burn in & bezel width, Gsync much desired)
43" is the perfect size for me as it's big enough for my console racing/gaming on the single centre, but not too big for triples. 32/34" just doesn't cut it for competitive racing Esports when using a single monitor with my simrig.
did you end up going triple 43? I'm thinking of doing this myself for my rig!
Thanks for the detailed review I have been looking forwarded to this. Its a shame it doesn't deliver the amazing response times on Samsung's smaller VAs. Its nice to have a competitor to the FV43U and the QN90b even if its not the response time upgrade we hoped for.
Bro compare tis model with neo g7 “32” inch qled monitor
I bought this monitor last week for $499 and it's already boxed back up to be returned tomorrow. The software is a mess. The issue that was the deciding factor to return it was when my PC would go to sleep and I would wake up my PC the monitor would turn on but then go directly to the screen with the countdown because no external device was found. I would either need to unplug and replug the HDMI/DP cable or power off my PC. I tried about five of each, HDMI 2.1 (certified) and DP 1.4 cables just to make sure it wasn't a cable issue.
Sorry you had this issue friend.. my 2nd one arrived in good shape. Tho it updated automatically and I didnt want that to happen.
Hardware Unboxed finally covered this monitor. Tim was not happy about some of the results.
Its not the fastest but for 499 its awesome. Especially for 43 inchs.
Omg the motion blur is unplayable
Thanks
How does it handle text rendering? Browsing text and showing text in a text editor?
Its a VA panel so typing is not a problem but if you move or scroll text you may see smear. For the size and price its very good but not pin point.
ODYSSEY NEO G7 43" , m28u , dell 3223q or oddysey g7 28", which one would you prefer? They all same price. I will use it with rtx4080 and ps5 as a main monitör. I can't realy decide. Can you help?
Hey Vik! There’s a specific feature that I really like on this monitor as as well as the odyssey ark and that’s the option to be able to resize the screen. I like a large monitor to work on and a 27 inch to game on w console. Do you know of any other monitors that have this feature? 4k with hdmi 2.1. I have been looking for an article that would list monitors with this feature but there isn’t one. Thanks for your help in advance
Thank you. Great job!
Got for 500 for pc/ps5/series X. Other than the annoying UI and other bullshit I am happy so far.
What firmware version are people on? I'm on 1470 but I've had issues before with Samsung updates not working for me
Went from a Samsung 49" CRG9 (5120x1440) to this one. The ghosting is pretty bad on this screen. Not sure if it's bad enough for me to return it yet. The picture also looks like crap out of the box - but it can be adjusted to the point where it really looks fantastic. Very pleasantly surprised by the black levels and the colors look spectacular. Really wish it had less ghosting though. Surely a deal breaker for many gamers.
It's the only real issue I have with it so far. I do not care for the TV style menus either, but I can live with it. They also could have thrown some physical buttons on the monitor - not even a power button to speak of. If you lose the remote, you are out of luck.
Changing the color gamut seems to make it faster or shall we say less processing. Thats the only thing I have been able to find. Tho I like that color pop of neo qled so I dont use it
@@DisplayReality That's a good tip, but like you say, the colors are one of the main draws of this monitor. That, and the black levels, for me. Wish my Vive Pro 2 VR headset had the same black levels (my original Vive Pro had OLED panels, will definitely be missing those now).
All Samsung remotes work for it. I turned this screen on with the remote and it turned my Samsung tv across the room on at the same time
Out of curiosity what's the connectivity of this Monitor?
How many HDMI 2.1 ports?
Also I especially would like to know does it a Digital Optical Audio Output port (SPDIF)?
1 dp 1.4 2 dp, no optical
I have a 50" neo qled. I also find the tv menus annoying. Every time you turn it on, the pop-up TV menus sit there for about 5 seconds too. Right in your way. Also, the TV doesn't show the pc boot up sequence at all.. no boot, no post, no menus.. when there is a boot issue.. you get blue screen.
Just an fyi, in the video you said the monitor had 360 local dimming zones, but I someone I know contacted Samsung to ask them about it and they said the monitor actually has 1196 zones. Maybe your info is accurate, but just wanted to let you know
It has 360 zones. I counted them. The Neo G7 32" monitor has 1196 same a 32" neo G8.. Samsung marketing doesnt even know there own monitors.. lol
I bought this monitor can u give us ur best settings for it because some games look really good and others not so much
So which one would you recommend for gaming. Neo g7 32 the Neo g8 or this 43. I want something with good blacks. I know op-eds are the best but I just can’t get over how low in brightness they r. I want something over 144 hrz with 4k. Price not an issue or size.
Ill try for a vs vid with the neo g8 but from all 3 I prefer the Neo G7/8. They have better panel speed and have brighter highlights. But this size is nice as many want a bigger experience. The only nicer option would be say an oled C3 42" with updated smart features. But that burn in may still be an issue.
Hello, can you use the flex move screen feature while playing games on the console?
On sale for 499.99 right now on Amazon and Best Buy
How well does this work with nvidia gpu’s? Does it have g sync compatibility?
But how is the monitor for pc use productivity. text surfing youtube spreadsheets programs etc.
What can I exactly show in a fri vid? Let me know friend..
@@DisplayReality just want to see normal pc use surfing the web youtube desktop use. text on web pages. etc. i am using the 32950b for general use and a 42c2 for pc gaming. but am interested in this display also. for general pc use the 32950b rocks. more real estate is always good. but not wasting my money if it cant top the 32950b for everyday use as a pc monitor thanks for the reply nice vids.
Yes please do.
Generally no issues which matter. You might encouter some text-sizing issues but the reason would be more likely the scaling function in Win 10, rather than the BGR matrix itself despite there are rare occasions when I'd blame the BGR. Rumor has it that it have been (almost) resolved in Win 11. Haven't tried it though.
Hello. now on amazon it is on sale 699$.is this monitor best for this price? i am looking for 32 inch or bigger monitor for everyday use and also for gaming. will be this monitor good for my situation, also i consider Gigabyte fv43u.
What a great review
Is there a KVM feature or pip for running two systems?
Just got this for 450 open box from best buy. If i like it I'ma take the Sony m9 back. 4k on a 27" just doesn't look clear to me. Pixels probably so cramped up in that small screen.
What are the best 32 inches 1440p 144hz monitor right now? I don't play competitive games, I play mostly RPGs like FFXIV and AAA games, I prefer image quality than lots of FPS.
Check the one from Gigabyte.
this has hdmi arc. Why isn't it eARC? If it's hdmi 2.1. If its only hdmi arc, does it support dolby digital plus? Or atmos?
I'm beyond frustrated.... How do I get to function menu where I can set FPS???? Please and thanks
Odyysey g7 43" monitor still work 4k 120 hz consoles?(xsx/ps5)
Yes 100% no issues ps5 or xbox
Does the monitor has a range of resolution and refresh rate variants?
I agree, it should have a simpler menu, not a TV one like.
You’re going to higher the volume? What does that mean?
I had choice between 32" Neo g7 and this, but due to lack of reviews, I chose 32 Neo G7
32 neo g7 is a superior momitor without issues, but maybe less 100% white brightness
I bought Neo G7 on January actually I could say I bought 3 of them because two of them I returned first had scratches on the back and around the panel back not putted together properly (manufacturers problem). Second had 9 dead pixels so finally 3rd one was good and I can say neo7 is incredible monitor 👍👍
It's super bright I putted the brightness on 90% not even 100%
Nice but you didn t tell something about the text clarity..
So can this use g-sync or no? Is it really necessary? Currently have 4070 ti, might uograde to 4080
Yes. But game mode needs to be enabled on the monitor. Kinda weird how this monitor/tv has the menu options
How do i pop up the menu to play with the settings?? Jajaja sorry, dum question
If in game mode: Hold the play pause button (to the right) hold for a couple of secs, of normal mode hold the Home button (middle house looking button) for a couple of secs.
Brother, cordial greetings, thanks again for your videos. Brother I am using the LG C2 42" as a monitor but I was thinking of buying the video monitor should I change or do you think it is not necessary.
This monitor looks interesting but the Lg C2 is 900 right now. Which would be the better choice?
oled fast and top contrast but u can get burn in and often very glossy. va panel more ghosting no burn in usualy not glossy. for console i would go for the oled for pc i would go for va panel since there are alot of static elements on in windows and so an. but it all depends on what priorities are.
@umanfly who da fk is gonna notice 24hz lmao
What's the difference between S43CG700NC and LS43CG702NNXZA?
Could be retailer specific. Like samsung isa or best buy etc... also sometimes regions. There is only 1 neo g7 43" so dont worry buying anywhere
Innocn 27M2Vis where its at. 1152 dimming zones on a 27 is crazy good. I've had the monitor for a couple months and it works flawlessly with my PS5,Xbox series X, steam deck and 4090. Truly an unbelievable monitor. Doesn't even compare with to Samsung monitors; it beats it in every way.
Nice! That one and the redmagic are the same panel. I dont know which to get.
@@DisplayReality Im pretty sure the Red Magic uses the same panel. I am playing Days Gone again on this monitor and and I'm like wow; this is how HDR is supposed to look with absolutely no blooming. Of course the big HDR test is alway Resident Evil Village with its super dark atmosphere. This monitor passes with flying colors. I would say go with the Innocn considering they are the parent company; which I learned in the last few months. I had never heard of Innocn before my purchase. The more research I did I found that the Innocn was a better choice when it came to the infamous "panel lottery" lol . Like no dead pixels or any issues with the panel at all. Which I am so picky about. Great video's man. I watch them all! Ps---(The controls on the Innocn and Red magic are super old school. Lol you will see what I mean when you buy one; but you get use to it)
4k @ 60 hz? for 4090 it's a bit primitive no?
You state quite clearly in your opening remarks that the Odyssey Neo 7 IS A TV NOT A MONITOR. You can't showcase features and capabilities that don't exist. We can therefore assume that this is the reason other "reviews" of this TV never bothered to document the multitude of deficiencies and missing features that must be corrected before it can legitimately qualify a monitor..
Samsung has gone to such great lengths to label what is clearly a "TV" as a "monitor" in its product descriptions, marketing and outrageously high pricing that it begs the question: How big of a lie does a corporation have to tell before it is called to account by the Justice Department...
Just so we are clear the Samsung Odyssey Neo G7 IS NOT A MONITOR! It is, as the author admits, in point of fact nothing more than another stripped down and overpriced TELEVISION masquerading as a "monitor"... The reason that so many comments claiming this is basically a QN43QN90B/C have popped up all over the net is simple: Samsung's marketing department is hoping that these comments will lend justification for the high pricing and complete lack of a monitor feature set...I admit to initially having erroneously concluded this myself.
Just an FYI: The reason that TV manufacturer's operating systems are slowing down is simple. Every extra second they can force users to view their advertising is over time worth millions of dollars in ad revenue...
Whats best for ps5 this monitor or lg c3 42 inch?
display quality can campare with LG c2 ?
Yo Vik.
Like it better than the FV43U? I wish the 38” ASUS was out
Its tied I would say. Its is more fun then the Aorus..
Anyone having sound output problems using the 3.5mm jack?
In PS5 working well VRR and 120hz? Thanks!
It passed the test no problems.
Hi Victor my neo g7 started doing this: Cycling solid colors please help dont know what is going on
Which neo G7? The 32"? Make sure you dont have any lcd repair or diagnostics going on. Try disconnecting all cables for 20 min. That will hard reset it.
How do you turn on the lights at the bottom of the screen in the corners? The little blue lights ot whatever
Under the game mode section. The 4th option in the menu. You can turn it off or change the colors. I like red as its the brightest but I turn it off sometimes too.
Hi, is it 220v compatible?, or just 110v only?, thk
(AC100-240V 50/60Hz) this was on the Samsung US website. Sorry I dont know specifically the 220v
I just can’t figure out how to change the fps from 60 to 144 😕
For pc? It should be in your pc settings . Consoles only allow 60-120hz.
Is the 43" QN90C the same thing as this monitor?
The 43" qn90c would look nicer and glossier screen. This G70NC monitor is a bit laggy currently... not sure on the 43" qn90c tho
I’m sorry but the qn90c was horrible I returned it and ended up sticking with the c2 even with the risk of burn in I just bought the extended warranty and it was still cheaper.
@@zetdaripper What was wrong with the qn90c? Which size?
How do you turn on hdr on this monitor under the settings section?
HDR should enable when selected on device. Gaming HDR HGIG basic advanced is under the Game mode options
My only complaint the monitor to big. I need 32inch only.
