Samsung 34' Odyssey G5 Ultra-Wide Gaming Monitor with 1000R Curved Screen, 165Hz, 1ms, FreeSync Premium, Large Display, Eye Comfort, Multiple Ports, WQHD, LC34G55TWWNXZA, Black

Really like this monitor that I got for my kid. I originally thought the curve was going to be a problem but that definitely proved to not be. It's very responsive and easy to setup. The colors needed a bit of calibration that I got from a review site but after that it looked good. The quality seems really good for the price. Refresh rate is pretty high but my kid doesn't have an ultra high end machine so it can't drive it very often to be honest. Over all though it's a great monitor that is cheap and gets the job done.

This is a great monitor for the price! Nice and big with plenty of screen real estate. Crisp and bright video. I haven't had any reason to complain. I treated it gently until I got it mounted due to some of the other reviews, but once I got it secured on the arm, I have no worries. Treat her gently and she's just fine. The only caveat I have for anyone is to be aware, there are no speakers, so an external is necessary.

Very happy with this product.

The monitor looks good when it works. The button press control "stalk" is a pain in the butt, and gets in the way of any accessories (Tobii eye tracker, etc) due to placement. But the biggest issue is that it consistently refuses to power back on when the pc comes out of sleep mode. I have to physically unplug the power source to get it to power up. Rebooting the computer does nothing. It did not do this initially (purchased in October 2024), but is doing it more and more. I have had an open ticket for more than 6 months. Support is polite, but not effective. I am not waiting for a call from a service rep who according to the support rep is likely going to tell me to ship it to them so they can fix it then ship it back. This is a non-starter, I work from home and cannot be without a monitor. With an issue this on-going, I would have expected more significant action (cross ship replacement, etc), but this is not an option for the Samsung Support reps. At this point, I cannot recommend Samsung monitors and will be looking to replace with another brand I have had good luck with (Acer, Asus, etc). Update: After being told 2 times my device was out of warranty after only 7 months and being required to prove my purchase 2 times, I was told you expect a call arranging a home repair visit on one of three preferred days I had provided. Instead, I received a phone call asking to pay $329 for an "out of warranty" repair. After proving my purchase was in warranty a 3rd time, and bring disconnected twice, I was told that I would have to ship them the monitor for 2 to 3 weeks as they don't offer in home repair on Monitors of this size (34 inches). As the current owner of a Samsung TV, range and laundry appliances i can say unequivocally that they will never see another of my dollars. Service is horrendous. Don't buy this monitor or any of their other products.

Great monitor overall, but I took 1 star off because: - The power and overall control button is a knob on the bottom of the monitor. If you don't use a stand and are moving, you can't set it down without breaking the knob. Which means you can't change any settings. - When the monitor is in power save mode the little knob has a flashing blue light. Visually, not great, since I had this in my bedroom. - When the blue light flashes, it makes a high pitched noise as well with every flash. So again, not ideal for a bedroom unless you're manually turning it on and off every day. I probably wouldn't buy this one again, even though those are small-ish details.

Overall I'm a lot happier with this than an old 4k tv from walmart. Only complaints I have were the lackluster HDR, which I expected only being HDR10, and the color, which was a super easy fix. I just changed was color, I changed it to Cool 2 and set blue to 70 and it looks perfect now. No dead pixels or cracks to speak of, just some scratches on the frame from being a clutz installing it. Unlike what the other reviews say, the power LED can be turned off while the monitor is off, by going into system and scrolling all the way down, it shows "Power LED On", and set it to "Working," this will let the LED turn off while the monitor is off. Great for someone who has their computer in their room and likes it nice and dark while they sleep. Going from 60hz to 165 was a massive difference for me, it felt like the image was clearer sooner after moving. The curve isn't too much, but 1500r would have been nice. I haven't used it for any FPS games, because I have this installed on a monitor arm on my sim racing rig, but I imagine the experience would be great. As for racing, I think 21:9 is better as it's a more efficient use of screen space. How often do you look at the roof and dashboard of your car while driving? I don't look much personally, so I thought I would get rid of the unused space and get my monitor closer to the top of the wheel so it feels more immersive, but also keep a wider FOV to see more on the track. I bought this because it ticked all of my boxes; ultrawide, >100 PPI, IPS, >144hz, 1ms response time, and a nice curve. I would say if you can get it under $400 to go and snag one.

I absolutely love this monitor. The curve isn't too aggressive, and fills your peripherals nicely. Ive just been using my laptop so this is an incredible upgrade for space. I will say, if you're after the full 165hz this monitor is capable of, and hdmi cable might not do the trick. Using a high end 8k hdmi cable I was only able to run 99hz. I ordered a usb-c to display port cable and that should solve that. All in all this monitor is killer for the price. I do graphic design work as well as video editing, and this give me ample space for multitasking.

Really improved my iRacing simulator. Provides realistic peripheral view that helps me gauge my braking and turn-in points more accurately. Monitor is very sharp and refreshes quickly. No noticeable lag. The monitor has no speakers, so I ended up buying a soundbar to get sound.

بعد فتره ماراح تقدر تلعب على 165HZ و تضطر تلعب ع 100HZ الشاشه لا تنفع الالعاب ابدا كلها لاق و تقطيع ممكن افلام و تصفح اما اللعاب لا

I work from home, and I'm probably in front of this monitor for 10 hours daily. It is an absolutely perfect monitor. It's not too big; I can have two full windows on it at once because of how wide it is without any issues. I have a triple monitor setup, and I plan on upgrading one of my second monitors to another one of these monitors. I've put probably close to 120 hours of gaming on it, and it is an absolutely fantastic experience. I have no issues with refresh rate, ghosting or color reproduction. It works as it should. The blue light filter has also benefited me as I am in front of this monitor for 10 hours daily. The stand was not great; in all honesty, it was because of this I ended up replacing it with a double monitor stand. The issue was there was no way to tighten the adjustment once you have the screen angled the way you want it because the screen is so heavy it would just drop back to the bottom angle, and it really could have been more pleasant to work with. Once I got the new stand, this monitor really came to life now that I can properly adjust it. I recommend this monitor to anyone looking to get a curved monitor or if you work from home, as this will significantly increase your productivity. As I said earlier in the review, the screen size is perfect for multitasking.

Product nice but, Curved screen back side mound not fixed properly.

Bought this item and used it for 2 years (great screen). The board got fried 2 years later for some reason, I took it to the Samsung service center for them to tell me the spare part for this specific model is not available. I contacted Amazon and their response was also “we can’t help you with this.

Excelente monitor, muy buen tiempo de respuesta y la imagen es hermosa, por el precio si esperaría al menos que trajera conexión usb c con hub u otro display port, pero de ahí en fuera lo recomiendo 100% Lo que diría también es un punto malo, es la base, en el manual dice que se puede ajustar la inclinación, pero esto no es verdad y el peso del monitor hace que este tenga una ligera inclinación, está muy pensando para que le compres un monitor arm o lo montes en la pared, esto último es lo que haré yo, ya que si no quedas a la altura correcta si es muy incómodo después de un rato. En general es un 8.9/10, el monitor no es uno de gama baja mi media, ya es de gama alta, otros monitorea que están en el mismo precio traen por lo menos hub usb, más de un display port o bocina, esperaría al menos uno de estos por el precio, la base deja mucho que desear, pues eso se tener que gastar en un brazo por qué no se puede ajustar cuando otros del mismo precio o menores si, es bastante molesto. Lo que si es que a pesar de lo anterior no puedo ni quejarme, es un excelente producto, tiene muy buena imagen, el acabado mate de la pantalla ayuda mucho si estás cerca de una ventana o tienes focos justo atrás de ti (este es mi caso) dado que no se refleja nada, los acabados son buenos, el botón de navegación tiene buen feedback, el freesync funciona bien, todo es excelente en este monitor, lo recomiendo al 100% si lo encuentras por el precio que yo de $14,500 pesos mexicanos, ya que por lo que tiene a 18mil que lo venden en la página de samsung, ya déjame hace mucho.
