SAMSUNG 43" Odyssey Neo G7 Series 4K UHD Smart Gaming Monitor, 144Hz, 1ms, VESA Display HDR600, Quantum Matrix Technology, AMD FreeSync Premium Pro, LS43CG702NNXZA, 2023, Black

Playing racing games at around 100 to 144 fps, 4k with ultra details is sweet! System only has a 7900xt in it, so that's all she push. Big visual difference the 144hz over my old 60hz monitor has. Speakers are awesome as well. Yes the hub interface is annoying and a little sluggish and if you happen to use it last a TV and you have turned the TV off then your computer on you will have to change the input. Doesn't automatically detect the inputs. Had 1 issue where it failed to display properly when I turned it on, had to unplug and plug the display cable back in. I wish it was just a true gaming monitor and not try to be both that and a TV. Sure it's not an OLED screen, but paid half as much for it and the colors and games look awesome and in the end that's what matters to me. Baldurs Gate 2 looks amazing on it.

Really great monitor/smart TV. Loos great in gaming or viewing mode. Only issue we had was slight connectivity with the remote but we figured out if it freezes just press the volume button and it unfreezes. Slightly annoying at first but tv is so great it makes up for it. Great buy.

Of the 10+ monitors I've owned, this is the most difficult to get a quality image across multiple platforms. Picture adjustments are a myriad of choices. Each one affecting different programs differently. Perfect the picture quality for streaming movies and adversely impact your gaming apps. I cannot find a balance between the two and find it frustrating to have to make complex adjustments each time I want to load a different app. I was expecting something great after spending almost twice the amount for this monitor but am sadly disappointed. Once you get the adjustment to your liking, the picture is just okay, not as spectacular as I expected. Trying to get rid of a washed-out image is the basic problem. Who wants to constantly make adjustments every time you change a program?

I purchased this monitor because I only wanted to use one monitor for work and play, so it needed to have better than 60hz refresh rate and I wanted a larger 4k monitor because my eyes are not getting any better as I age.The PPI is about the same as a 27" 1440p monitor, and I find myself not having to squint any more than I used to have to with them. For work, I use the full 4K resolution and for gaming, I use the 3840x1600 resolution which leaves horizontal bars at the top and bottom of the screen. I have a laptop with an RTX 4080 and while it can do true 4K in demanding games, I prefer to get a few more frames out of it and run in ultrawide. It's also easier to use in this aspect ratio when sitting up close and using a mouse and keyboard. The monitor remembers which input is using which setting so there is never a problem when switching inputs. The only huge issue I have with the inputs is that when launching a game on my laptop, if the game is in full screen mode, it will disable my laptop's ability to output to the monitor and I can't even switch back to the laptop's native screen which causes me to have to cold boot the laptop. I have to run all games in borderless fullscreen, and that has to be configured before trying to launch the game while this monitor is inactive. Additionally, I can't make any screen related configuration changes, like activating HDR on my laptop without the same result.I briefly had an OLED monitor of the same size (which I accidentally broke in a freak wardrobe malfunction accident involving a belt after just a few weeks of owning it). I replaced that monitor with this one. I was concerned I wasn't going to find the picture quality to be comparable. I guess I don't believe it is but I find there are definitely positives to this monitor. For one, I don't have to obsess over potential burn-in, and because of that I can run this monitor with much higher brightness. This isn't even an issue, I as I run the monitor at 10/50 brightness while working and 20/50 on my personal laptop for gaming. The colors are vivid and while I notice bloom from time to time due to the auto dimming backlight zones, the blacks are very black and the image is pleasing to me. One day I'd like to calibrate the monitor, but so far I've just tuned it to what looks good enough and I roll with it. There's supposed to be some crazy smearing going on with this monitor and when I first got it I could swear it was horrible and I was going to return the monitor... but I don't even notice it anymore. It looks and plays fine to me. I've been playing Jedi Survivor recently on all high settings at the ultrawide resolution I mentioned above with DLSS quality and frame gen on and I'm getting about 100 - 110 fps consistently and it looks awesome.The biggest surprise to me about this monitor is how much I'm using the smart TV features. My desk for work is in my bedroom and if I've ever had a TV in the bedroom before, it would collect dust. With this monitor, I find my wife and I watching movies/TV shows/relaxing youtube videos using the smart TV features. The smart TV interface is slow and clunky, but functional.Finally, the sound is adequate. It's not bad, it's not great but it gets the job done.Cheers, if you can get this monitor for $500 and nothing I've mentioned is a deal breaker, then it may not be a bad purchase for you!

GOT MORE THAN MY MONEY WORTH. I ABSOLUTELY LOVE THE MONITOR. I GOT THE 144htz 43 inch flat. Everyday I'm learning something new with the MONITOR. ALSO THE FREE SAMSUNG TV PLUS. Must buy
