I want to love him, but instead I have problems.

UPDATED 05/05/2021 Serious issue shortly after the review was published: Screen flickering. It looks like this could be fixed in a software update but I haven't tried it yet! โ€ข The entire screen flickers during gameplay. It's not too obvious, but it's noticeable at the moment and I can only imagine it's only going to get worse. At first I was worried it might be my graphics card, but after some research it turned out to be a common problem with the G9. I'll try to remember to update this afterโ€ฆ

ok, should have bought a new one

There were some issues with the 3090, but after a firmware update everything works fine. This in itself was a big problem as you need to find a USB flash drive small enough to format to FAT32. HDR looks washed out. I think sdr looks better on this panel, or maybe my visual taste for hdr is not refined enough. There's an odd black dot (more of a dark spot) under the screen that's only visible when trying to display white. It's hard to see unless you're looking for it, and hard to miss when youโ€ฆ

Great deal for a great monitor!

I liked the first one so much I bought another one, initially skeptical of some of the negative reviews about stock products but both monitors came quickly and all parts and cables were included, very happy with this purchase especially for the $1199 and free shipping. It was an easy decision to take part! My productivity is skyrocketing, I can now see all my important applications and no spreadsheet is too big! woo-hoo

Best gaming monitor at 2k

The Odyssey G9 is simply amazing! Thank you Samsung for doing exactly what I wanted in a gaming monitor. Only the 1000R and 240Hz curve interested me, but you went much further.
