Large and affordable gaming monitor with a 32-inch curved WQHD/2K resolution thin-bezel display, a fast matrix and an increased refresh rate. It is positioned as a product of the middle price category, aimed at demanding gamers and novice e-sportsmen. The basis of the screen is a full-fledged eight-bit VA-type matrix with a resolution of 2560x1440 and backlight based on W-LED technology without high-frequency flicker (Flicker-Free).
A key feature of the Samsung Odyssey G5 32 monitor is the screen curve, which reduces optical distortion and uses peripheral vision. A fast response 4ms GtG sensor (1ms MPRT) and a higher refresh rate (144Hz) ensure fast motion is crisp and clear in fast-paced games such as competitive shooters (e.g. Fortnite, Overwatch, PUBG, Counter-Strike, Warface, Call of Duty: Warzone, etc.).
Support for AMD FreeSync Premium technology ensures that there are no typical frame breaks (only when using AMD graphics cards). With decent brightness (up to 250 cd/m²), good static contrast ratio and support for HDR10 technology, the user can get the most visual information about the gaming environment. Proprietary Low Input Lag mode minimizes electrical delays. HDMI 2.0 and DisplayPort 1.2 interfaces are provided for connection to the source.
Samsung's all-new line of gaming monitors
Korean giant Samsung has developed a wealth of experience in the production of TVs, monitors and miniature smartphone displays and has become a leader in many of these areas. Particularly in the market for low-cost monitors, Samsung has put checkmate to its competitors in a game called "do it better and at the same time cheaper." In 2021, Samsung aims to reinforce its hegemony with the release of a new line of sophisticated yet affordable Odyssey gaming monitors. According to Samsung itself, Odyssey combines "superb image quality and futuristic design."
"Elite middle class"
The 32-inch Odyssey G5 arrived in our lab and sits in an intermediate position in the new hierarchy. This monitor uses a traditional 1000R VA-matrix for similar sizes. The panel has a resolution of 2560x1440 pixels, a refresh rate of 144 Hz and a brightness of 250 cd/m2. The matrix response speed is traditional 4 ms GtG (1 ms MPRT technology). Throw in support for AMD FreeSync Premium with HDR10 and you have a gentleman's set of solid gaming monitors. Considering the interesting design of the monitor and the official price tag below $400 (for 32-inch, Carl!), it really is a candidate for the title of people's gaming monitor. Or not?
Resolution 2K
In fact, everything is a little ambiguous. On the one hand, the 32-inch matrix covers any possible diagonal Wishlist. More than TVs. The dynamic contrast ratio and brightness values of the Odyssey G5 are above the average temperature in the ward. And the response speed and refresh rate are perfect for both leisurely quests and spinal shooters a la Titanfall 2, where every millisecond can cost a life. In general, for such characteristics a couple of years ago you would have to pay twice, or even three times more. However, this does not justify the inconvenient monitor control menu and mediocre viewing angles. It’s not so convenient to cut a company into a conditional MK11 on the Odyssey G5, entry-level office VA monitors immediately come to mind.
