The Samsung Odyssey G9, also known as the LC49G95T, is a 49” super ultrawide monitor with a 240Hz refresh rate, a 1,000nit VESA displayHDR certified screen, and quantum dot for great colors. And it’s GSYNC compatible! It’s everything…but can the VA panel keep up without smearing the blacks??

Finally a monitor that can display the name of a Java class in one line.
Got me giggling with this one, bravo!
Nice to see fellow programmers around
poor joke
As a programmer... loooooooool
@I am a Bot yes you are
Fyi to whoever uses LTT’s amazon link: The link is for the 2019 version. The 2020 version was recalled and will be sold again later. The price for this monitor is $1800. The amazon link is 1100. Just Buyer Beware with that link.
Edit: Basically the G9 spoken of in this video is no longer available on amazon. Using this link might lead a typical buyer to purchase the “Amazon Choice” top pick of the Samsung 49 inch CRG9 Curved Gaming Monitor. Which in a quick glance sounds exactly like the monitor in this video. This was likely an oversight and will be fixed (either by LTT or Samsung once they re-release the product). Just note this if you want this and try using that link around the second half of 2020 (no announced dates yet for this)
Need to get this comment to the top. Thanks for letting everyone know
Thanks for the heads up! I'm an owner of the the 2019 version - got it a few months ago and it's solid. No flickering, 120hz (100hz w/ 10-bit, so no DSC), and only 1800R (1000R would have been my pick). For $700 less it's a consideration especially if productivity is the main use. It also is an amazingly immersive gaming monitor. AOC has the same panel but less back light and no local dimming that regularly is $1k on amazon (better warranty) - Agon AG493UCX. These monitors are expensive, but the experience of moving to a 1440p super ultra wide is pretty amazing - especially for WFH.
@@aaronromine how you knew it was 2019 version sir?
@@douglasward718 woah, I wish I knew that before buying my monitor.
Where are you seeing an Amazon product listing for any G9? There is no 2019 version. They "released" it in February of this year and then it was promptly recalled, without any real explanation, shortly afterward.
You literally cannot buy this monitor if you are in the US or Canada. Any link to it has been listed as "discontinued." The product search that the Amazon affiliate link in the description takes you to doesn't list a G9 anywhere on the page, because it's been delisted from their store front. Like every other store front. Not sure about other markets (Europe, Asia, etc).
But the vast majority of Linus' audience literally, with no exceptions, cannot buy this monitor. So I don't know why this video was uploaded. Linus should know all of this, given his... like entire job, and whatnot.
EDIT: Oh, forgot to link the actual Amazon listing for this monitor:
www.amazon.com/dp/B088HH6LW5
Just in case you guys want to see for yourselves.

I've had this monitor since last November. I do notice the light flickering sometimes but it's only been in certain instances. Overall I love it, yeah it's a bit pricey but the hope is as these become more standard, and more people buy them, market prices will go down. Highly recommend

To fix the flickering issue you go their website and download their firmware update from early july. It was solved instantly after the update.
Good to hear
Nope still broken and I'm using 7.1 update and its a September model.
Still have minor flickering on my G9 after updating firmware to 1008.1. There's no flickering with VRR enabled but with VRR, I get a lot of stuttering in games. In the process of getting mine exchanged.
@Waldel Martell spend many times that for an ultrawide immersive experience that a regular monitor just cant deliver
@Waldel Martell such a weird argument- you do realize that the majority of people who bought this monitor isn't gonna comment about any issues. If you expect every single product to not have any issues for every person that buys them- that's never happened... like ever.
Been using this monitor for over 6 months now... and its lifechanging. The whole experience is enhanced to a whole new level. 100% recommend it!!
If you play games on this monitor what games are you playing and what’s your GPU ?

@@spookymane8839 yeah, remember its just a 1440 screen.. so its actually less pixels than a 4k (if my math is correct) i’ve been having difficulty running the 240fps tho.

I really want this monitor but since it’s being recalled I still want it even more for its ingenuity but I hope Samsung can fix it’s problem then re-release it.
I would seriously wait for a second revision of this monitor. The "recall" i think is about the flickering but also apparrently quite a few people have had problems with extreme light bleed due to layers of the screen or the bezel around it not being mounted well enough.
Their 2nd revision is also faulty.

I got mine today. It is absolutely badass. I got it on sale for $1100 including taxes and a 4 year insurance plan on amazon. Mine is remanufactured but works and looks like new. Before, I had the samsung g9 120 htz 1800R curve but I exchanged it for this Samsung 49 240htz 1000R curve as soon as I saw the sale. I am so glad I went with this monitor.
I'm thinking about getting one I have until midnight to decide. i wish there was a similar monitor that could compete. But right now i game on a 120inch benq projector, so I don't know if this is worth going down in size. I just want an ultra wide screen.

I don't get why they had to mention it's non sponsored. Is that going to affect the review? Have there been other reviews that were sponsored? Were those reviews biased because of the sponsorship?
@@anotherchu Unfortunately other channels sometimes (or, often) do sponsored reviews which of course influences the judgement. Specifically for the G9, there was recently some controversy because retail models had high defect rates.

@@jononeil4466 for me the worst part of it is that they get sponsored with Samsung to make those two videos about the G7 27"32" G9 in the first place on that second channel. This was a real mess IMO. Don't take the money at glance, first test things well. HE doesn't need to make those type of deals anymore. He owns a ten thousand channel already. WHY? I ask why! Where is the limit now for him? He got too big
It's Samsung. So there is a 1 year warranty and the life of the monitor is 1 year and 1 day. I'd think that them paying a little more up front for quality materials would be cheaper than having to pay for technichians to constantly repair these things. Mine started having dead pixels after less than 6 months of use. They sent out a tech to replace the screen. The replacement screen was 100 times worse. Completely unusable. Now Samsung sent me an email saying they are sending me a REFURBISHED replacement. Yep, I said refurbished... And no, I did not buy a refurbished monitor. I paid for a new one. Not very happy with Samsung. These things are not cheap. They need to get this quality issue under control. This video is already 2 years old though, so I'm guessing that's not going to happen.
Samsung should be sued at some point, that’s clearly abuse on their part. So many people complaining about their unreliable pieces of shit they dare to call monitors and they refuse to have proper customer support, they refuse to refund, they just send refurbished crap.
I'm buying this for Flight Simulator 2020. The huge view angle will make the cockpit and side windows all visible.

It's actually been recalled due to some g sync problems that cause flickering or something, just buy dual 27" Odyssey G7s, those are amazing, 2 Odyssey G7's are the same size as the G9.
This is kind of a good replacement for Triple-Screen-Setups. I Like it.
I really like this, please keep doing non-sponsored reviews as we need more honesty in this industry.
Sponsored reviews don't always mean dishonest. Especially on reputable channels like LTT. Alot of creators also don't let sponsored by the product content be called reviews, like how MKBHD mentioned in his video
None of LTT's reviews are sponsored by the company making the product. They have had videos where they talk about a product that is sponsored by the maker, but they label them as "product showcase," never as "review." I believe the main reason they labeled this video as non-sponsored was because their unboxing of it was sponsored by Samsung, so they felt the need to clarify that this was not. Or it is possibly a test to see if the video performs better by putting non-sponsored in the title
in my mind there can't be a sponsored review anyway. Ltt dies it right and call sponsored stuff "showcase"
This video WAS sponsored by Samsung... I find this concerning to say the least.

I can still return this monitor, not looking to bother you with any bullshit or guilt, but you should look at it cause you made TWO videos on this monitor calling it amazing and that's why I splurged on it and it's been a terrible and frustrating experience and from what I can tell it's a very widely shared experience.
What was the problem with it? I had to return my first one because it had dead pixels near the middle of the screen, Amazon sent me a replacement and let me hold on to the broken one till the new one came which was cool
06:45 Wow that's some backlight bleed.
My thoughts too. But then again, cams have a hard time capturing backlight bleeding correctly. So it could better or worse irl ^^

I picked one of these up on Black Friday this year for $899 bucks!!!!!
Same !! How you liking it ?
Good deal, what’s weird is some places online have it listed at $2500.
This monitor is a beast of a monitor. I actually replaced the 48” LG OLED TV with this monitor. The LG OLED C1 is an awesome TV but for me it’s not a good pc gaming monitor
I want this monitor. Whats the main issue with it?
Pre-ordered mine weeks ago, Can't wait to use it in September when it finally arrives!
shit monitor. enjoy marketing foolishness.
@@GODLIKE99KINGZ Imagine being this mad that someone can afford something better than you.
Personally I'd wait for a HDMI 2.1 monitor. This just isn't good enough for me. Just imagine a 7680x2160 240hz true HDR monitor! LOL, I can already hear the RTX 3090ti crying! XD
Aussie Kent I’m sorry but this for almost 2k is no no
@@Trainboy1EJR No thanks. 7680x2160 240hz true HDR monitor would cost $5000. Besides I was going to buy the CRG9, but op-in to get the next version the G9 instead.
I’m really looking forward to the LG CX review!
I really wish i had the table space for that :/ literally the perfect monitor to par with my setup.
Small, but important correction: it's Samsung HDR 1000, not DisplayHDR1000. That means no full array local dimming, just edge dimming.
Every time I see Linus wearing lots of LTT merch, I have a flashback of Joey: "Could I BE wearing any more clothes?"
That was Chandler though.
Joey was : How you doin'
What I remember:
Did a Porsche throw up on you?!
Lol he is wearing a lot of ltt gear I was like is he going to workout after or what with that headband
@@yasirelec ruclips.net/video/zRL7ufdVzn4/видео.html
Yasir Javed nope. Joey was impersonating chandler by wearing all of his clothes.
Lmao I got the notification after clicking on this vid
same

I'm 69. 😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎
Sold out everywhere. Not at Best Buy, Not at MicroCenter, Not on Amazon, Not on NewEgg... This monitor might as well not exist.
i have the CRG9. And i love it, i know i will upgrade in a few years to the latest and greatest.
Just came from watching the Pre-Built comparison series from a while ago, where Origin PC got slated as the worst. Now they are a sponsor for the channel.
I think it was a way to say Samsung didn’t sponsor the video, origin pc sponsor but seemed like the focus was on the Samsung ssd. So it’s like Samsung did sponsor it in a way he could say they didn’t.
Well sure, it's an ad and it's not that they were terrible.
They've always been the worst. Suddenly refusing to sell AMD graphics cards in their systems for what they claimed was "too many support requests" when the whole crashing drivers issue (at launch of the 5700XT; has since ended) hadn't started yet was evidence enough for me. They didn't want to train their support reps for two different graphics card OEMs. The only good thing about Origin is their cases, and they don't sell those separately so... fuck 'em.
@@Swerv3D Wow, bought a tinfoil hat ?
@@XionEternum My 5700XT was a mistake nothing but trouble I stand by their decision.
I got myself the 27" G7, and I have to say I was initially scared to pre-order because it had no dedicated G-Sync module, but I trusted Samsung on this. I neither have dead pixels nor G-Sync flicker. However, I did have one instance when launching Razer Synapse Surface Calibration, the top of the pane started going haywire. Other than that, I haven't had a problem in a variety of games with Adaptive-sync on. Make sure you update your NVIDIA driver (mine never presented an update for the G7 G-Sync, and still doesn't) so I had to do it manually. Also, make sure to download the latest firmware for it. Oh, and really pray that you got a good unit that is largely flicker free. I cannot go back to any other monitor after using it, even with the curve. Samsung has smashed it, hats off
I got lucky and received this monitor before they froze the retail sale. Haven't had any issues yet (knock on wood). It's by far the best monitor I've seen in 45 years of my life. So immersive for gaming and easy on the eyes for multitasking. Incredible!
I'm going to get this.
One day.
One day....
The Samsung G9 was recalled, because Linus exposed that it could be dropped too easily!
I edited this comment so you'll never know how I got these likes
Are you using k=1000 or k=1024?
You are wrong the Human eye can only 2 gigs of ram whilst at 60hz. If you overclock your eyes you can get upto 8gigs of ram. :p
@@mwnciboo My eye sockets don't support overclocking though..
but don't worry you can easily download more ram for free anyway .
@@VENO5407 actually you can it just might void the warrante
I only care for hertz when they’re FREAKIN’ hertz.
Yes, bro. There is a recall. Light Bleeding, Light leaking and Flickering. If you call phone support, they are directly giving you exchange. Best deal Dou!
AND, the Monitor is having built in HDR that stays enabled always. If you enable on PC, this causes collision resulting in bad picture.
Thanks for that... almost bought it... now will wait for flickering issue
Kind of sucks that he can't be 100% objective or honest on the sponsored vid
@@alexhb12333 True but one of the things I've admired Linus for is his unwavering stance on giving the *real* opinion on the product at the end, sponsors' opinions be damned.
Apperently, the issue gets solved is you update the firmware to the latest version ;)
where can u buy this because i camt find it anywhere im literally pulling my hair looking for this monitor all i see is last year model !!
im literally about to buy last year model as im desperate to buy a 32 inch or higher monitor with 1440p minimum
@@kyokushin1289 It will be back in stores soon, My pre-order ETA is September.
me wanting this monitor
dad: how wide do you want your monitor?
me: Yes
Dad replying: No
@@biv_ky Oh....OH! WOW! You said yes to your father. Instead of answering! BUHAHAHA! Sooooooo Funny- wow. Yes, instead of a measurement or any actual information! So funny. Wow.
@@JA070288 rlly bruh.

This monitor and the G7 are useless because it wont be able to get 144hz FPS frames per second stable,
The sponsor is not samsung
**proceeds to show a samsung ad**
I actually just got mine today and they're on sale, for $999.... I mean, there's nothing I can really say about it, because no words could describe how it looks and how it makes you feel, when you are actually playing a game on it.... It's f****** unbelievable and make sure you have a good graphics card, that can handle what this monitor puts out..... There's a game I play, that I've been playing for years and it felt like I was playing it for the first time ever, when played on this monitor, just say'n..
What GPU are you using? Curious how my own experience would stack up
@@greatatlas_Nvidia 2070 s...
Damn I got the 3070 and this monitor makes me crave the 3090….
What games are you playing ?
@@cleokatra. I only received the monitor earlier this week- the backup from Cyber Monday was pretty severe. So far I've tested it with a few games- Halo Infinite can manage it about 140-180fps, Destiny 2 around 60-90 (vsync on). Valorant can't use the whole screen. Some games like ROR2, Minecraft, Subnautica run really well but I didn't spend enough time to bench them.
@@greatatlas_ what game settings? Have your tested it on COD ?
Something I'd enjoy seeing is how the monitor looks on games with TAA enabled that are highly popular for "ghosting" based on TAA. Would it be even worse than before or have adversity?

In case you were not aware that's how "action's" are notated when typing on forums and shit
@@acrylex4663 I... Alright then. What a weird response.
Not saying anything would have been more respectful... Have fun with that!
I can finally display my whole spreadsheet!
It has 10 bit color for full screen applications like games. But to get 10 bit color for open gl you need to get a quadro card. Not sure why reviewers don’t mention this. Once you use an app like photoshop or Lightroom, you don’t get 10 bit color unless using a quadro card. So this monitor really isn’t for productivity but is for gaming and full screen use.
Samsung has always been the king of display technology for me.
for me its sony
Been falling off in recent years as far as I'm concerned. They no longer make the best displays for TV's, LG does with their OLED's. Their new generation of 120hz OLED panels for mobile phones has been plagued with issues (see the green tint issues on the S20 Ultra and OnePlus 8 Pro for some examples of that), issues that are also apparently making Apple uneasy about using them for the iPhone 12 (that is a rumor though). They keep trying to ride amped up VA 'QLED' on both their TV and monitor market, with new generations barely being different or more innovative than the last. This monitor and their last few generations of TV are a great example. Barely more or the SAME pathetic amount of local dimming zones, resulting in the same poor HDR performance, and just frills and gimmicks to sell the new units.
The only truly great thing Samsung makes these days is memory. Everything else is cut corners, gimmicks and gobs of fucking marketing. They need a kick in the pants.
