Samsung’s massive 49-inch gaming monitor garnered media attention in 2021, but this year, the company made something even bigger. Reintroduce yourself to the Samsung Odyssey Neo G9, which is now bigger and has better specifications.
Samsung’s previous Neo G9, a Mini LED display with a price of $2,499, was replaced by the new Odyssey Neo G9, which was just unveiled at the Consumer Electronics Show (CES). This screen is described as a “super ultra-wide curved display” and is 57 inches in size.
Samsung’s previous Neo G9, a Mini LED display with a price of $2,499, was replaced by the new Odyssey Neo G9, which was just unveiled at the Consumer Electronics Show (CES). This screen is described as a “super ultra-wide curved display” and is 57 inches in size.
With a 32:9 aspect ratio and a resolution of 7860 x 2160 pixels, this is Samsung’s first 8K ultrawide monitors. Noting that traditional 8K TVs typically have a resolution of 7680 x 4320 pixels, which is four times as many pixels as 4K, this resolution differs from those.
Despite this, the Neo G9 has twice as many pixels as a typical 4K display. The Display Port 2.1 on this monitor makes it the first gaming monitor to have one, though Samsung hasn’t specified what other inputs it can accept. It goes without saying that this additionally brings support for lossless Display Stream Compression. There are currently no details on whether it will have a One Connect Box similar to the Odyssey Ark, though there may be one.
A matte display with a contrast ratio of 1,000,000:1, HDR 1000 support, a smooth 240Hz refresh rate, and a quick 1ms response time are all features of this display. Other technical details are currently unavailable, but Samsung has promised to provide more information soon.
Although a price has not yet been mentioned, the monitor is scheduled to debut later this year. We anticipate the price of the display to be significantly higher than $2,500 given its high-end specifications.
