Updated the monitor to firmware 1011 and retested the HDR Brightness, HDR Color Gamut, and HDR Color Volume. The update only results in minor differences in performance. Added that this monitor is a better super ultrawide gaming monitor than the LG 49GR85DC-B in the Compared to Other Monitors section. Seize winning control. The incredibly low 2ms input lag brings never-before-experienced response accuracy to catch notoriously agile enemies. It's so fast, that action begins instantly when you turn on the screen, with virtually no delay between your peripherals and the game. Finance is only available to permanent UK residents aged >18, subject to status, terms and conditions apply.
We tested the monitor with the PS5's new variable refresh rate feature and confirmed that even though the monitor supports HDMI Forum VRR, it's not working properly. Power on for instant play. With Auto Source Switch+, your monitor detects when connected devices are turned on and instantly switches to the new source signal. This helps you get to your game action faster without flipping through multiple input sources. If someone comes across a different type of panel or their Samsung Odyssey Neo G9 doesn't correspond to our review, let us know, and we'll update it. Note that some tests, like gray uniformity, may vary between units. Updated to Test Bench 1.2, resulting in changes to the results and scores with the Response Time and Input Lag. Added tests for Console Compatibility and macOS compatibility and made minor changes to other tests, which you can see in our Changelog. Overall, the local dimming is better than any other monitor we've tested as it helps to improve the contrast and make highlights pop. It looks really good when viewing from the center, but there's more blooming when looking at it from the side. It's on par with some local dimming features on TVs, but don't compare the score with TVs. Instead, we took real content local dimming videos like we do with TVs so you can see how it looks:See every detail in all its glory. From gloomy shadows to sun-scorched scenes, 2,000 nit peak brightness and 1,000,000:1 contrast ratio enable enhanced colour expression and depth. Get a competitive edge while playing Ray Tracing games by spotting hidden enemies using their reflections. Added in the Variants section that the Samsung Odyssey OLED G9/G95SC S49CG95 is a newer version of this monitor with a QD-OLED panel.
The Samsung Odyssey Neo G9 is a monster. Measuring 49in from corner to corner, it arrived on my doorstep in a box big enough to sleep in. Once I’d put the G9 together and heaved it cautiously onto my desk, the sheer size of the screen left me at a loss for words. At the time of writing, I have two other 27in gaming monitors in for testing, and the Odyssey Neo G9 dwarfs both by a vast margin. With stand - width: 114.95 cm - depth: 41.83 cm - height: 53.72 cm - weight: 14.5 kg ¦ Without stand - width: 114.95 cm - depth: 28.74 cm - height: 36.35 cm - weight: 11.9 kg Straight out of the box with dynamic brightness switched off, the Samsung Odyssey Neo G9 covered 99.6% of the sRGB colour gamut, and 91% of the DCI-P3 gamut. That’s roughly the same as our results from the Odyssey G9, as is the measured peak luminance of 453cd/m² and contrast ratio of 2,431:1.
