Great monitor, but for a DP connection issue

The G95SD replaced my Odyssey Neo G9 I’ve had for 3 years ago (Still working great BTW.)
For me the additional media features in the G95SD are great! I can go from watich streaming to playing in seconds. And the G95SD’s OLED is a significant improvement from my old Neo! Games look incredible.
My only issue (thus the 4 stars) is the G95SD’s video mode switching. It can be VERY temperamental. Driving it with an Nvidia RTX4080 via DisplayPort, if you don’t have everything “just right” the monitor will lose communication with the PC when launching games. Yes, I have tried various DP cables.
Hopefully, there will be a firmware update (soon??) to address the monitor’s sensitivity to this setup.
Oh! One other thing; the settings menus are VERY slow. Any hope of giving them a bit more pep in a new firmware???
I would recommend this to a friend!

Your thoughts and opinions are very important to Samsung.
Bluetooth cannot be deactivated, not in the normal menu, not in the service menu. Samsung has taken away this option in the MRT menu. Streaming is not possible without wifi. There is no LAN socket.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I use my monitor for gaming. I love the 120hz, makes the frame changes feel smooth. Watching movies on this thing in 4k is soooooo beautiful.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This monitor I’m gonna be using mainly for gaming and productivity. So of course I bought it with the intention of both things. I still haven’t gotten the complete use of this monitor since I still don’t have my PC but I’m looking very forward to it. So far the integrated features are great. I’ve been playing with my XBOX at the moment and it’s been a fun experience. One small comment is sometimes the monitor would turn on but there would be no picture displayed, meaning that there would be sound and the light sync feature b whine would turn on but no picture would be shown. I would have to turn off and then turn on the monitor again for it to fully wake up. I guess it could be a small bug that hopefully could get fixed with future firmware updates. But other than that I’ve been very satisfied.
