The Samsung Odyssey G5 is primarily aimed at demanding gamers who are looking for a high-performance monitor for gaming, video, and general use. With its high refresh rate and low input lag, it offers quick responses and high performance in games such as FPS, racing, and fighting. It features an impressive curved screen, unique Core lighting design, immersive WQHD resolution with HDR technology for vivid scenes on your screen, as well as a 1ms response time and FreeSync Premium for smooth gaming.
Immerse yourself in the game
The high-performance 1000R panel automatically transports you to the heart of the battle as it matches the curvature of the human eye to offer you the ultimate gaming experience while minimizing eye strain.
Refresh Rate 144Hz
With a refresh rate of 144Hz, transitions, even the fastest ones, become extremely smooth, and you can now perceive every tiny detail that can make you a dominant force on the battlefield.
Response time 1ms
A fraction of a second is enough to fall behind your opponents. For this reason, the Odyssey features a 1ms response time to ensure that information reaches you as quickly as technologically possible.
AMD FreeSync Premium
Thanks to AMD FreeSync Premium technology, transitions even in the fastest action scenes become extremely smooth as the refresh rate of the graphics card is synchronized with the monitor to minimize "tearing," flickering, and input delays in the image.
Impressive WQHD Resolution
The universe of your favorite game comes to life before your eyes with WQHD resolution, which has 1.7 times the pixel density of Full HD screens. WQHD resolution has every reason to boast of its extremely detailed image with incredible color accuracy. The action takes on a new meaning as you now have a large field of view to fully enjoy your game.
Graphics that give you the edge
HDR technology with a rich kaleidoscope of shadows makes your game more vivid and intense by revealing what is hidden in the shadows, offering an image with strong contrasts with deep shades of black and bright shades of white for impressively detailed resolution that always keeps you one step ahead of the rest.

I thank the Samsung gods for this one. This monitor is by far the best in the price range. The quality is amazing, refresh rate never hiccups, the menu is vast and intuitive and the price can't be beat. The curve is almost a little much at first but once you're used to it it feels wrong using a flat monitor
The screen was good while it lasted (2 weeks). Everything was going fine, and suddenly the right side darkened and also heated up, as you can see in the photo (I put the white background to highlight the black that appeared on the screen). I have tried everything. I turned it off and on, a faint sound is heard for a second, it gets fixed, then it breaks again and stays like that. I have searched everywhere for solutions, but Samsung's website does not provide any help or software update for my screen model, which is LS27CG552EUXEN. In the end, I found a driver, downloaded it, but nothing changed.
Edit: The problem was fixed by the service sent to me by Samsung's dealership. The screen is fine, it hasn't had any issues so far. It had a slight flickering which disappeared with a restart of the screen.
I didn't know much about the monitor, I found it by chance and the price seemed very interesting compared to what it offered, and I wasn't disappointed at all. Wonderful colors, very comfortable, very good response, and overall I recommend it
It is the right size to be used even for a TV. It is perfect, only that instead of 165 Hz it has 144. At first, it gives you this at 60 Hz, but then you change it with a button and make it up to 144 Hz. For its price, I am very satisfied
I've had it for only a few days. Very good menu Very good picture This is the second one I'm getting The first one was 27 inches And both are good. (Of course for the money I spent)
As mentioned multiple times, the screen is excellent. After a week of use, I can say that it offers a different quality to the entire viewing experience. The screen has very good response and delivers what it describes. The curvature is just right and helps for comfortable eyes even for reading.
The menu is user-friendly, with many (but not overwhelming) options. A discreet button at the bottom, which moves in 4 directions with clear navigation.
Its own stand is indeed a disadvantage, as it takes up space unnecessarily. I mounted it on a wall bracket with an arm, so I have no issues. It is compatible with the Arctic W1-3D, where they combine perfectly, as it supports it comfortably without strain and the rotation on the vertical axis offers something new for a computer screen.
5/5 because it really is as the description says, this monitor is easy both in assembly and installation. Now, I don't know what problem some people find, as I see in the reviews, but a month later it's still here with no issues, it works for the PS5 and really the resolution and colors take the game to another level, it made me start gaming again
This screen is good for everyday and simple use, not for anything more. In games with many details and good graphics, it struggles and everything looks blurry.
After some reviews on YouTube and the related stuff, I was quite skeptical about various things they say there and comparisons with IPS. But guys, don’t even think about it. The screen is simply flawless. Coming from 1080p, it’s literally night and day, and a very nice design
This is the second one I bought. The first one is still with us, unstoppable. Both times I found a deal and it cost me €175-185. So for that money, there is no comparison. At first, until you get used to the feeling, you might feel a bit.... but then you just can't let go... And both screens combine with mid-range graphics cards and perform amazingly. They work 12 hours on average with heavy use. I've had the one for 2 years already without any issues.
At the price I found it (219$), it is perhaps the best monitor. If you want amazing refresh rates with 2k resolution and incredible colors, it is the best choice, and beyond that, for a VA monitor, it has an amazing response time.
Beautiful screen, large surface area, nice curvature, nice colors, high refresh rate (165 Hz without HDR and 144 Hz with HDR) and generally a very decent gaming choice. The backlight bleeding, at least on my screen, is very pronounced and overall the build quality is quite mediocre. However, without a doubt, as a choice, it is value for money.
Excellent colors, viewing angles, and black. Unfortunately, after a few days of use, the tearing with Nvidia GPU was very pronounced as the adaptive sync did not work properly, and mainly the smear and ghosting. Perhaps things would be better with an AMD GPU.

The screen has a good size and good curvature. I would say that compared to more conventional gaming monitors like AOC, it has better performance, it just doesn't offer the flexibility as it doesn't have a height-adjustable or tilt-adjustable stand. But it is satisfactory
I have it for 1 month, a nice 32" screen, user-friendly menu with plenty of settings to adjust the colors to your liking. Completely satisfied so far, highly recommended. I switched from an AOC 27" which died after 4 years, hoping this one will last longer.
Amazing screen with a very user-friendly menu and perfect colors! I bought it from the eshop with a discount at 230€. For its price, it is very much worth it and combined with the ps5 and the hdr that the screen has, it makes the gaming experience incredible!
The screen is incredible! I had no issues with viewing angles, very nice colors and resolution especially for this price (260 that I got it for), I couldn't find anything better! I mainly use it for heavy gaming, the curvature puts you right into the game! Also, the biggest positive for me is the very easy and nice menu, especially for games like COD, Battlefield, it helps a lot.. One negative for me is that in the description it says that the screen is 165 Hz while it is actually 144, but still, get it with closed eyes
Although I have owned it for a short time, I have to say that the screen is worth every €. You feel like you are inside the game. I have nothing else to say, I recommend it with my eyes closed!!
