Samsung Odyssey G7 Curved Gaming Monitor, 32 Inch, 240hz, 1000R, 1ms, 1440p , Black

Product Information

With its WQHD display, you enjoy 77% more desktop space than a full HD screen to spread out your windows and palettes.

It's also impressive for work use as it has a large 32-inch screen with a 4k resolution for sharp details, and it delivers accurate colors if you want to use it for photo editing. This contrast was much better than any TN Film or IPS panel could achieve, but was a bit under the 2500:1 spec, being measured at 2048:1 after calibration. There was a bit more visible on darker backgrounds but it was nothing too bad and it’s very hard to spot. This was not visible in normal uses and not a significant issue we felt given the high contrast ratio of the VA panel. On balance for office, text and general work we preferred the higher pixel density and improved sharpness of the 27″ model to be honest.The table to the right then explains whether that overdrive control needs to be adjusted by the user depending on the refresh rate (not ideal), or whether adaptive overdrive is utilised to keep things simple. Despite being a gamer-orientated screen, it was good to see a focus from Samsung here on reliable and accurate setup, as opposed to some gaming screens which have a large gamma deviance and seemingly very little focus on accuracy. We left the LaCie software to calibrate to “max” brightness which would just retain the luminance of whatever brightness we’d set the screen to, and would not in any way try and alter the luminance at the graphics card level, which can reduce contrast ratio.

It easily gets bright enough to fight glare, and there aren't any distracting changes in brightness. It has FreeSync support with G-SYNC compatibility to reduce screen tearing, and it has low input lag and a quick response time for a smooth and responsive gaming experience. The large 32-inch screen lets you open multiple windows at once, and the 4k resolution helps deliver sharp text. We carried out some initial response time measurements and visual tests in each of the overdrive settings, and at a range of refresh rates.It's a newer version of the Samsung Odyssey G7 S28AG70 with many of the same features, including HDMI 2.
