@@thevaluespace absolutely, you mentioned mini pc to run the monitor, I'm looking for a mini pc for Samsung 49" oled, can you recommend a mini pc? & Does it need to have display port 1.4 for 240hz?
@@elliotpolanco159 If you want to make use of the 240hz refresh rate the it has to have display port 1.4 and above but if that’s not the case any will do. I recently got the geekom mini IT13 and it’s good value for money. Here’s a review if you’re interested linktw.in/zOBbmR
I have been using the G95SC version for a few weeks now along with the LG Dual Up display on the left side of it. Perfect for daily productivity. Having "Fancy Zones" software for windows management also helps (I have the screen divided into 4 windows most of the time). One thing that made me decide on this model was the Nvida G-Sync compatibility out of the box (actuall printed on the stand). Gaming is, of course, exceptional.
Good Video, I liked the visualization! Only thing that I'd like you to improve is your microphone quality. It isn't easy to clearly understand what you're saying at times. Keep it up.
got rid of my original G9 for a QD OLED aw3423dwf, super ultrawide is very very much a niche product and only people who have an actual usecase for so much screenestate should get this, a lot of times as a gamer you will run into situations where cutscenes are stretched to fill out the screen width, so you will miss out on actual details top and bottom, same goes for some HUDs or character screens being distorted many games just dont support this aspect ratio what so ever, sometimes you will have to apply some widescreen hacks, sometimes you wont find a solution what so ever
True I agree with you on that. It’s a niche product and most often than not people who get them the main reason is for gaming and again, like you said most games don’t support the 32:9 aspect ratio. In saying that, I find it really good for productivity with the ability to have multiple windows open while chipping away at whatever tasks you have
I like the Oled due to it's slim design, glossy panel, less aggressive curve and of course for being an oled. But the biggest obstacle for me is the burn in, i'm not the type of person that upgrades their monitor every two or three years especially if it's an expensive monitor. I've been using my Asus PG279Q since 2016 (almost 8 years) and it still works flawlessly. I'm settled on getting the neo g9, i saw the neo and oled in person and my worry is that the 1000R curve on the neo might be too much for me. It's such a shame, i really want the OLED for many reasons but i just can't see myself babysitting a monitor by adding live wallpaper, auto hide taskbar etc and even with all that being done, the games i play have a static UI, it is destined to burn in eventually.
I’ve been using the 49 inch Neo G9 for about two years now and don’t mind the 1000R curvature. I feel as though it’s the sweet spot with slightly better features than the original G9 and some of the features the OLED and 57 inch G9 have. As for the OLED like you mentioned my biggest worry would be burn in.
@tankspl7 live wallpapers make it more interactive and the fact that the screen is mini-LED the likelihood of suffering burn in is next to zero. Unlike the OLED G9 which is more susceptible to burn in due to the OLED SCREEN
What is Samsung doing with this super confusing lineup. This is the only video that's helped me catch up with exactly what they've been doing. So the new ones are G95C (VA) and G9 OLED (...OLED) and G9 NEO (but it's the 57" one)
The Odyssey OLED is the one that’s slightly different. The 49 and 57 inch Neo G9’s are similar in most areas and the differences are not day and night apart from a few like better motion handling at higher refresh rates and a display port 2.1 up from 1.4 in the 49 in Neo G9 etc
The video I was looking for. I am from Australia too and looking into 57 inch neo. Did you buy yours directly from Samsung? Also keen on your table and chair.
Yes I got it directly from Samsung. My desktop is the hardwood walnut from desky also an Australian company and my chair is the Eames office chair from temple and Webster
hopefully I dont have any defects to this monitor. Bought the neo g9 49', and it'll come here in a few days. Worried about the panel popping out, or dead pixels, etc.
I bought this Samsung G9 from Amazon. After 2.5 years of ownership and not using the monitor heavily, the monitor started to give a blank screen. I called Samsung, and they told me I should have bought the extended warranty and they can't help me. This is a manufacturing issue and is an EXTREMELY COMMON ISSUE. I wouldn't have purchased this knowing Samsung doesn't stand by their very expensive monitor. I WILL NOT BUY ANOTHER SAMSUNG PRODUCT AGAIN!!!
@@rader83 That’s super annoying. A lot of people complained about quality control issues when the monitors initially came out and your unit could have been one of those

I’ve had a look at their spec sheets the 49 inch Neo G9 beats the updated standard G9 by just a hair. I don’t see the need for you to get the updated standard G9

It’s from UGREEN. I’m yet to experience any black screens, it works completely fine. I just got a KVM switch since I plan to add a PC to the setup. Fingers crossed the black screen doesn’t start popping up

HEY PLEASE HELP , i just got my odyssey G9 today and I’ve connected it to my ps5 via HDMI port and on my menu everything is greyed out , the black equalizer is greyed the refresh rate is greyed out, the g sync is even greyed i cant turn it on or off and even input lag is greyed i dont know what to do! Please help
According to the manual the Black Equalizer is not available when either: Eye Saver Mode is enabled. PIP/PBP is enabled. Picture Mode is set to Cinema or Dynamic Contrast mode. So if any of those are on turn them off and/or change Picture Mode to something else. As for Picture Mode, it's not able to be changed if either: Eye Saver Mode is enabled. PIP/PBP is enabled. Or when the input is an HDR signal.
Going by what I know, IPS panels offer superior colour accuracy and wider viewing angles whereas the mini LED of the Neo G9 excels in terms of brightness, energy efficiency and affordability
So once you calibrate the Neo a bit is it good enough compared to the OLED? I have the OLED right now and love the colors and picture but want a more aggressive curve and worry about burn in long term.. so really thinking about returning it before the return period expires
Being an OLED it would still be better when it comes to colour accuracy but like you said OLEDs are susceptible to burn-in in the long run. A dialled in Neo G9 would give you the aggressive curve you want plus good colours for content consumption, basic editing although I wouldn’t recommend it for professional photography work
I just bought this but the g93sc instead of g95sc by mistake so its not the smart monitor version and im struggling trying to figure the screen fitting..should i return and get the latest oled .. it said oled when i bought it but i didnt get the remote and cant find where to buy it seperarely
Any model before the OLED since it hasn't been 2+ years yet. I refunded my Neo G9 on the 23rd Month because the Adhesive that holds the panel inside the frame dried up and my panel popped out of the frame. This should NEVER ever be an issue on any curved monitor. So im staying away from 1000R curves on 49 inch monitors. If anybody tells you they changed to 1800R because of anything other than the issue with panels popping out, is talking our their asshole and letting out farts. @@thevaluespace
