New technology in the Odyssey G7 is AMAZING!!!
I highly recommended this monitor for intense gaming. I have had it long enough to learn how to get the most out of it. This monitor has the nvdia G sync thing going on too. It's future proof because of the new dot technology it incorporates and the curve is enough to immerse you almost totally in the game of your choice. The best graphics goes to War Thunder. Its free to play and you can also purchase premium tanks, heli's, prop planes and jets, and even ships. The game is an absolute monster!!! Game on brothers and sisters!

Great potential, Samsung still cant do monitors
I had high hopes for this monitor as it checked off all the boxes for me, I was hoping this could be what replaced LG's 27GL850 as the new 1440p champ given that LG decided to go 4K for their high end gaming monitors this year (Which I think has little point at 27"). I felt this was Samsung's chance to prove they were done treating their gaming monitors as second class citizens and while the specs are great the experience of actually using it falls flat. For starts lets go over the main selling points for me: 1440p - Perfect for the 27" size, nice and sharp but without going overkill. 240hz - This still gives a nice boost in smoothness and responsiveness, I also did not notice the usual black smear that commonly plagues VA displays which is awesome. I am usually not one to like VA panels due to that but this one performs well. VESA HDR 600 - While like most computer monitors this still can't take full advantage of HDR, and window's HDR implementation still needs a lot of improvements, this can at least hit 600nits peak brightness. I do feel that HDR games look better on this screen than when I play them in SDR. I still would rather play a cinematic game on my OLED but at least when I am sitting at my desk gaming on the G7 I don't feel the need to turn HDR off. VRR - This is where things really start to fall apart the 27" version of this monitor has a VRR Range of 60-240Hz (80-240 on the 32"). I also can only speak to the Nvidia experience but given this is certified it should be fine, right? Not even close. I have never once noticed flicker on my GL850 but it happens all the time in certain scenarios on the G7. Seems anytime the frame time exceeds about 6-7ms (So say like an unstable 150fps) you can get flicker if the scene is a high contrast scene. This was the same place for 2 different monitors I have received (Had to swap out the first due to it having 3 dead pixels). I used CRU to try to fix this issue by bumping up the bottom of the VRR range to help this issue but I had to move it up so much to eliminate it that it made VRR just note as worth it. While the VRR annoyance had me nearly returning this monitor this rest of the experience is the reason why I will. For starters something else I noticed (And this seems to maybe be related to the VRR flicker) is that certain images/content on screen will cause this odd effect where every other line is a different intensity and the whole screen dims. The content that seems to do this is content that once again is high contrast that only a small part of it is bright. Given this just like with the VRR flicker happens "randomly" it can be distracting a take away from the experience. I have attached two pictures showing the comparison of what it looks like when this happens, this is hard to capture since a camera tried to smooth it together given how small it is but it gives you an idea, and in the real world it is very noticeable every time it happens. Also when my computer turns the screen off for a bit and thus this monitor goes to sleep takes forrrrevverrr to go back to displaying an image. It takes multiple seconds to do so and comes on and off multiple time in the process. I thought maybe the monitor had a deep sleep mode like dell does, but if it does there is no way to turn it off. Firmware updates feel like they have made this worse, not better. Also because of this if you are going to use this monitor in a multi monitor setup persistent windows is going to be a godsend. Lastly when the display goes into this sleep mode it turns off the USB controller. Most monitors only turn this off when you manually turn the display off, but this one will also just do it after a certain amount of time. That means no long file transfers using the USB ports on the monitor (Not that that is a big deal given how hard they are to access). But in my case as someone who uses a USB DAC plugged into the monitor for my audio this means if I am playing a game, hit pause, and come back in a few minutes then I need to reboot the game since my audio controller is no longer seen by the game since it was affectively unplugged and plugged back in. In conclusion this monitor shows that while Samsung may be ready to take Gaming Computer Monitors seriously their years of not caring and not understanding what PC gamers expect from a monitor is what kills this monitor. If you are looking in this price range DONT buy this monitor, I know it is tempting, but if you can, just wait a few more months until monitors start coming out with the new IPS 1440p 240hz panel from LG that we have seen on a few companies roadmaps. If you can't wait then I would say just go down to the 27GL850, the price just to the G7 is just not worth it given the little features you gain and the giant headaches that come with it.

Great monitor!
Glad I purchased this. I am a AMD user but does have G-sync too. Even though its not a IPS panel it can go toe to toe with one (lots of reviews on YT). Great colors. I recommend this 27G7 VA panel to everyone who have the extra cash, also it's 4k/8k. COD warzone is awesome on this 1440p 240hz monitor, the dark corners in-game are bright and you won't miss that corner camper. You really have to see it in person. Upgraded from a 27i omen 165hz.

As for a gaming monitor, it's a winner.
Okay, so the reviews I read were mixed. At first that had me avoiding this monitor. With so many new people getting into PCs, there wasn't anything else to choose from; everything was sold out. I wanted a high FPS 4K, but those were all out of stock. I felt from the reviews that I read that I was going to hate this monitor. I was even disappointed that I bought it right after purchasing it. For one it's curved, and I like flat monitors. For two it's Samsung. I have a few name brands for PCs that I stick to, ASUS being my favorite. I'm not a fan of Samsung, as far as I was concerned the only good product they had was the Galaxy S3, and it was down hill from there. I was looking for a high FPS gaming monitor, and I didn't want to sacrifice quality for FPS. When I first powered it on, the screen didn't seem impressive next to my 4k monitor. Once I figured out the menu and settings I was able to bring this monitor to it's full potential. After adjusting the settings this monitor looks better (in it's own way) when compared to my 4k 60 hz monitor. The menu I think is great, I can quickly adjust the it on the fly, and it's far better than my 4k ASUS monitor's menu. As for FPS, 240 is all I will ever need. It's fast and responsive. The brightness is great and the black and white contrast is amazing. The black looks black, not gray. Overall it looks amazing. I can say that I'm not disappointed that I went with a 1440 monitor over the higher priced 4K. As for price, I was looking at monitors almost double the price, and would have bought one of those if they were in stock. This was more discounted than what I wanted. As for that, I think this monitor was well worth what I paid. It checks a lot of marks, and I didn't have any of the problems other people mentioned, so I can say Samsung comes through with what it's advertised as. Problems I read in other reviews: I haven't had any problems with dead pixels. It was the first thing I looked for. I don't have any problems running G SYNC. I saw somebody say their 3090 caused this monitor to flicker really bad, to the point they couldn't even use the monitor, mine never did anything like that. It runs amazing with GSYNC. I haven't turned off GSYNC since I activated it. The only down side of this monitor that I can think of is it's 1440.. I really wanted a 4K high FPS to push my ASUS STRIX 3090 OC to the limits. BUT even at 1440 I don't hit the 240 FPS in the games that I play, so this monitor accomplished that. I had this monitor for around 3 weeks so far, and I am very satisfied with the purchase. The curve I got used to real quick, it looks great next to my other monitor, and it helps me see both monitors easily. Samsung really came through with this monitor. It seems they had some hiccup's at first, but addressed them before I bought one. Bravo, Samsung! If Samsung keeps this up I will be upgrading from this monitor to Samsung's next generation of monitors. Fingers crossed they do this monitor in 4K while keeping the 240 hz. I would also love to see them offer these monitors with flat screens, as much as I don't mind the curve, I'm old school and prefer my flat screens.

Would recommend
Just bought this monitor for my new pc setup, so far the colors and clarity have been excellent as well as providing a comfortable and immersive gaming experience due to the 1000r curve

Love it
Great monitor haven’t had any issues at all with it. Shipping was great as well arrived on time.

The g7 is the sweet spot!!
This is my first curved gaming monitor and the 1000r curve is actually easy to get use to and adds a lot of immersion when you up that FOV. Picture quality is great, colors are great, and I love the design. It does take up more space than a flat panel on your desk but it’s a curved monitor and that’s a given. I haven’t had any flickering issues like I read about or actually any issues. I’ve got a 3090 pushing this to take advantage of the refresh rate of this monitor. I’m getting 175-228 FPS on coldwar @ 2k with all the knobs turned to the right, yes the ray tracing knobs too. It’s a little pricey but if I’m being real, there really isn’t too many 2k 240hz monitors out there and if there is than they’re about in the same ballpark price wise. I could’ve went for a 4K monitor, but the refresh rate tied with the resolution in he g7 is actually where it’s at. It’s a yes for me

Best of all time
Play video games every day - I have never had a better monitor. Love this thing so much.
