Samsung 32 Odyssey G7 G70D 4K UHD IPS 144Hz 1ms GtG Smart Gaming Monitor G-Sync Compatible AMD Freesync

Good product. I noticed that reviewers are upset that monitor doesn't support 144 refresh rate. If using a Nvidia gpu, open the Nvidia App, click on system, click on display properties for Samsung Odyssey G70D and set the refresh rate to 144 Hz. It now shows 144 in Windows display settings.

An excellent choice for a high quality picture, lighting, and color monitor for gaming. Highly recommend for console gaming especially on the Xbox Series X. Worth the price for a 4k picture and decent frame rate. Read more

This absolutely does not qualify as a TV in any historical context. It has no tuner and no audio outputs for multi-channel surround sound. This is disappointing because I expect audio outputs to be able to connect a multi-channel audio component system. So I'm going to review this as a though it is a Gaming Monitor, not a Smart TV. Likewise, I'm not using any ethernet capabilities of the monitor or any of their built-in apps. That being said... The monitor has been used almost daily for over 3 months now. The gaming performance and options are amazing. No issues for 120 fps or less. Hue was spot on. Identifying enemies is great. The adaptive color management is excellent when compared to other gaming gsync monitors. The biggest drawback is the on-screen menus that sometimes pop up with the only way to dismiss them being use of the provided remote unless you have installed the displays management app and turned off pop-ups. I don't like what should be unnecessary apps needing to be installed to get rid of nagging messages. Apps like this could be designed to harvest your usage habits, or could be updated later to do so, or even worse could be used to remove features you rely on years after you purchased the device. I rate items as 4 stars for items that meet all claims, remove stars for failed claims, and add stars for exceeding my expectations. Other than the claim of being a TV (or Smart TV), it meets all tested claims. It it were just a TV I would say it's 3.5 (based solely on lack of audio outputs and usability as a component). As a gaming monitor it's a 4.5. So overall 4 stars. Read more

The Samsung TV universal remote works with this smart monitor so be aware if your TV and monitor are near each other using both at the same time is difficult. You’ll have to use the smart things app to control the TV so the monitor doesn’t get interfered with. Other than that 10/10 for 4K console gaming Read more

I bought refurbished... Picture 8/10 - there's a pattern of pixels burned out in one corner - likely why it was put up for refurbishment, and I presume the pixels cannot be repaired. Gloss finish: vulnerable to glare. Features: 2/10 - asked for an email address when turned on. Which in turn it wanted internet. While I can see merit in allowing a thin-client an internet connection, and that this monitor serves as a rudimentary thin-client, I did not procure it as such, and it did not make an obvious path around the 'required' email address. - slow to wake from sleep. it's a thin-client, not merely a monitor. The few seconds it takes to start causes my PC to juggle monitor configurations. Probably moot as a problem if all the monitors are the same model, that's not the case for me. That deprecates it's ability to act as speakers, as windows generally handles audio hardware adjustments ...poorly - opens a gui on wake. Why? For what purpose must it obscure the taskbar and start button on wake? You know, the things I'd go to first? It also serves to hide the mouse in those situations. Have not seen any way to disable this behavior. - wake-from-sleep behavior: 0/10 First, my other monitor comes on. About 2 seconds later, my PC decides it has only one monitor and makes it the primary/only display. Then this monitor wakes, and does its power-on stuff. after about 2 seconds my PC decides it has 2 monitors and reverts to a dual display configuration, and then the monitor hides the task bar with it's own GUI that kindly informs me of the resolution, FPS, and various gaming options, making it impossible to use the monitor to launch programs for a full 20 seconds from wake. I've seen no option to disable this bad behavior which leaves me unable to interact with the task bar or start button. in one sense, it's trivial, only an issue for a short time at power up. In a more fundamental way, it's unforgivable: it's inserting itself between the user and the thing the user is going to interact with first after performing an action (waking the computer -> starting a program), and offers no ready way to stop the bad behavior. the perfect Ui is the UI a user does not notice. A Bad UI is a UI that inserts itself between the user and the task the user wishes to perform. This monitor has the latter, and the obnoxious GUI does not go away for 20 seconds. (My other monitor is ready and clear of GUI elements after 4 seconds - still slow, but the distractions are trivial there, covering perhaps 1/40th of the pixels in the dead center of the monitor for 1 second - an example of good behavior this monitor would benefit from) --- Summary: - Good picture. - Gloss finish -> glare can be a problem. - Refurbished might not be for someone wanting something super-shiny, but may serve well enough for college/undergrad. Or penny-pinchers. - Terrible wake behavior (ready to use 20 seconds after wake) Photo shows the obnoxious Ui at bottom (and glare) - the UI starts full width, entirely obscuring the start bar. Then shrinks to hide just the middle - perfect for sniping the modern windows-11 start menu. Read more

Perfect for the price. Ideal for office, writing and gaming. A good all-around monitor. Read more

Would give it a Zero, if possible. First, out of the box you are FORCED to go through a mandatory, long, cumbersome process of "setting up" the display as media center - no way out of it. Finally when you HAVE to select "PC" the Display Port will not work. After trying multiple reboots, cold starts, power on/off (all on a PC that was working fine before my less than 2 year old LG Gaming monitor failed) I did search and it's a very common issue. Samsung's answer" use the provided 3 ft DP cable. Seriously? In 2025 every other DP cable in the world is deficient and their 3 ft masterpiece is the answer? Samsung quality has declined significantly in the past 5 years and I'm moving on from all their products. Read more

Quite happy with the 4K & high refresh rate using display port for games. Didn’t realize it’s an Alexa compatible smart tv as well Read more
