Review on Samsung Odyssey 27" Curved Gaming Monitor with FreeSync, QHD 2560x1440P Display and Adaptive Sync Technology by Mark Natson

The monitor is exactly as advertised and of course Samsung so the quality is top notch. This is my first curved screen and it's incredibly engaging. I personally love it. As a casual gamer, this screen was perfect for my needs. To take full advantage of the 144Hz refresh rate, you need DisplayPort 1.4+ or HDMI 2.0+. If you have an older version of HDMI/DP (like mine) you will need to adjust it by setting the refresh rate in the monitor settings. The 32-inch screen is a bit big for 1440p, so the PPI (pixels per inch) is a little low, meaning you can see the pixels if you sit too close. I personally haven't noticed any pixelation or screen tearing, but hardcore gamers looking for a better gaming monitor will have to look further. Casual gamers or anyone using it for general purposes, this screen will blow your mind. If you are a hardcore gamer: PPI is too low for 1440p. Installing multiple 27" monitors at 4k for better PPI and smoother gaming. To use the 144Hz refresh rate, make sure you have DisplayPort 1.4+ or HDMI 2.0+, otherwise you'll need to set the refresh rate in your monitor settings - No built-in speakers (decorative bottom corners are purely visual) - Comes with Cable supplied HDMI, NOT included DP cable
