The Samsung Odyssey G9 is a 49-inch ultrawide display with a 5120x1440 resolution that feels like having two 1440p monitors side by side.

The Samsung Odyssey G9 deal includes a 49 inch 5120x1440 curved VA panel that runs at 240 Hz with a 1 ms response time. The 1000R curve brings the full width of the display into your field of view for a comfortable viewing experience.

You get one DisplayPort 1.4 port, two HDMI 2.1 ports, a USB 3.0 hub, and a headphone jack. The stand supports height, tilt, and swivel adjustments, and you can mount it using a standard 100 x 100 VESA bracket.

If you are into ultrawide gaming or you want more room for apps and windows, it is hard to go wrong with the Samsung Odyssey G9. It is a huge monitor, and that size immediately stands out when you sit in front of it.

It definitely becomes a conversation starter, and it will not leave you wanting more screen space. The only exception is if you are like me and enjoy building an over the top gaming setup just for the fun of it.

FAQs

Can the Samsung Odyssey G9 be used with Xbox or PlayStation?

Yes, the Samsung Odyssey G9 works with both consoles through HDMI 2.1. Consoles output at 16:9, so the image will appear centered with black bars on each side. The Samsung Odyssey G9 handles the signal correctly, but you will not get a full 32:9 view.

Does the Samsung Odyssey G9 support variable refresh rate on consoles?

Yes. The Samsung Odyssey G9 supports FreeSync for Xbox consoles and HDMI VRR for PlayStation. The image will still be limited to a 16:9 window.

What PC specs do you need to run the Samsung Odyssey G9 at 5120x1440?

The Samsung Odyssey G9 needs a mid to high end GPU for smooth performance at its native resolution. Cards such as an RTX 4070 or RX 7800 XT and above tend to run it well in modern games. Lower end GPUs still work, but mileage will vary on performance.

Do all games support the Samsung Odyssey G9’s 32:9 aspect ratio?

No. Some games recognise the Samsung Odyssey G9’s 32:9 layout and expand the field of view correctly, while others may show black bars or stretch the image. It varies by game but some games do have community efforts that add ultrawide support.

Can you use picture by picture mode on the Samsung Odyssey G9?

Yes. The Samsung Odyssey G9 supports PBP, so you can run two separate devices on the screen at once, each in its own window.
