Curved, Crisp, and Seriously Addictive
on May 10, 2025
Posted by: Nyklass
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This monitor wowed me the moment I powered it on. The 32” curved display pulls you in like a movie theater screen, only sharper, smoother, and right in your face (in the best way). Colors pop, details are razor-sharp, and the whole thing just screams premium. It fits my setup like it was made for it, and now everything else around it looks outdated. If you want a monitor that turns heads and transforms your desk into a command center, this is it.

BEST Graphics EVER! Real life as it gets!
on October 9, 2025
Posted by: Game2Hard
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Honestly the overall graphics and resolution is supreme to anything I've ever seen with the gaming monitors on todays market. The curved screen adds that deapth of reality bringing your peripheral vision in for better over all submersive game play. Playing my favorite games, no other monitor compares to the resolution and pixelzation with higher than average processing of frame rate, it can actually withstand my 250G service data speed.

Misleading specs.

I bought this earlier today. When I plugged it in it was set to 60 hits. I tried to change the refresh rate and the highest I could get was 144htz. Aside from the sale price I got the refresh rate was the other reason I bought. Haven’t decided if I will return it based on what I feel is false advertising.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Good but wish it was abit better
on March 19, 2025
Posted by: Fresh1942
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I picked up the 27-inch QHD, 165Hz curved version, and honestly, it's been a mixed bag.
First off, when it's good, it's really good. The curve is immersive, especially for sim racing and open-world games. The 165Hz refresh rate makes everything feel buttery smooth, and the QHD resolution is a massive upgrade from my old 1080p screen. Visually, when the colors are dialed in, it's pretty impressive.
But, and this is a big but, getting those colors dialed in took some serious tweaking. Out of the box, the VA panel felt a bit washed out, and the default settings weren't great. I had to spend a good chunk of time messing with the OSD to get it looking right. Also, I've noticed a bit of ghosting in fast-paced scenes, which is a bit disappointing for a 'gaming' monitor.
The stand is... well, it's there. Tilt adjustment is about all you get. If you want height or swivel, you're gonna need a VESA mount.
For the price, it's decent. You get a high refresh rate and a good resolution, which are the main things I was looking for. But, Samsung, you really need to improve the out-of-the-box color accuracy and maybe put a little more effort into the stand.
Look, I'm not mad, just a little underwhelmed. It's a solid mid-range monitor, but it could be so much better. If you're on a budget and willing to tinker with the setting, it's worth considering

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It's a pretty solid monitor. Could be a little better but for the price I suppose it's fair.

My review of the Odyssey G5 gaming monitor
on April 14, 2024
Posted by: Love2shop
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Samsung Odyssey G5 C27G55T is a budget-friendly 1440p gaming monitor. It sits below the Samsung Odyssey G7 C32G75T in Samsung's 2020 lineup, and it's since been replaced by the Samsung Odyssey G5/G55A S27AG55. It has the basic gaming features most gaming monitors have, like a 144Hz refresh rate, native FreeSync variable refresh rate (VRR) support, and G-SYNC compatibility. It's available in various sizes, as there are 27 and 32-inch models with a 16:9 aspect ratio and an ultrawide 34-inch model. All of them feature a curved screen with an aggressive 1000R curve.
