It's not bad but....
on December 2, 2024
Posted by: TheNeo
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This monitor is pretty decent for the price. Has basically everything you will need or want. Controls for the monitor menu is nice and easy to use unlike many others that can be very annoying. I use it mainly for gaming and eventually will be my second monitor. The but is you can literally get a cheaper brand for lower price and potentially slightly better specs.

Immersive and Smooth Gaming Experience
on April 15, 2025
Posted by: NinjaPastries
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I use the Odyssey G30D mostly for gaming, and it’s been a solid monitor so far. The high refresh rate makes everything feel super smooth, which is great for fast-paced games. Colors are vibrant, and the image is sharp, so everything looks really immersive. The stand is adjustable, which is nice for getting the right angle, especially during long sessions. I also use it for streaming and general browsing, and it holds up well across the board. No major complaints—it does exactly what I need it to and makes gaming a lot more enjoyable

Not Great
on August 31, 2024
Posted by: ReviewsTime
Always looks yellow no matter what settings I use. Stand is nice, but picture is worse than the monitor I was replacing from 2012. Insane.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Good monitor with minor flaws
on December 14, 2024
Posted by: Firestorm
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I mainly use this monitor for gaming, and while I like it I have noticed some issues.
The monitor has some minor ghosting, which is normal for a VA panel but still an issue. The OSD is tolerable, but it is a little confusing and some features like the hz indicator don't work, as the monitor always says it's at 60 even though I'm sending 180hz, I can see it's 180hz, and the system info in the OSD says it's 180 hz.
The lack of speakers on this monitor is annoying, especially when there's a huge chin with speaker shaped corners for no reason.
Finally, at full price, the 1080p resolution is unacceptable, as competitors easily reach 2k and 4k in the 200 dollar price range and with IPS displays instead of the flawed VA panel technology.
I do like the high refresh rate and freesync support, and the HDR makes content look much better than SDR.
Overall, I like the display, but only if it's on discount and you're okay with some minor flaws.

Excellent Monitor for Gaming and Everyday Use
on July 20, 2024
Posted by: BrianThunder
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I recently purchased the 27" G30D Odyssey Gaming Monitor, and it has exceeded my expectations. The picture quality is stunning, with vibrant colors and sharp details that enhance the gaming experience. The 144Hz refresh rate and 1ms response time make gameplay incredibly smooth and responsive, eliminating any motion blur or ghosting. The design is sleek and modern, and the stand is sturdy and adjustable. It's also versatile enough for everyday tasks and streaming. Overall, this monitor is a fantastic choice for gamers and casual users alike.

Perfect Gaming Monitor for a Student’s Budget
on November 12, 2024
Posted by: Gowrishanker
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] As a college student, I was looking for a gaming monitor that wouldn't break the bank, and the Samsung 24" G30D Odyssey exceeded my expectations. The 144Hz refresh rate and 1ms response time are perfect for smooth gameplay, especially during study breaks when I need a quick round of gaming to unwind. The Full HD resolution ensures crisp visuals, and the FreeSync technology eliminates screen tearing, making it perfect not just for gaming but also for watching lectures or videos.
What I appreciate the most is its compact size—it fits easily on my dorm desk without taking up too much space, yet still delivers an immersive experience. The minimalist design looks sleek and modern, blending well with my study setup. It's truly a versatile monitor that balances both gaming and productivity needs.
Highly recommended for fellow students looking for a reliable, budget-friendly gaming monitor!

Good Monitor. But with one major issue!
on December 26, 2024
Posted by: Jake Wilson
from Greenville, NC
This monitor is pretty good with a few exceptions. The monitor is a perfect size for me with not being to big that I would have to sit far away from it. I also love the freedom to be able to tilt, rotate, and adjust the monitor's height. But there is one major problem that caused me to return the product (I bought it on Amazon), the VA panel. The type of panel this monitor uses is a VA panel which is known to have horrible ghosting/smearing when there is motion on the screen. Whenever I watch a youtube video or play games that have lots of motion, it is very clear that there is lots of smearing on the image when it's moving. This was a complete deal breaker for me as it's hard not to notice the problems once you see them. This would be the perfect monitor if it came with an IPS panel instead of a VA panel.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
