Excellent for work and gaming. Too few ports.

I've recently bought this product and I'm very happy about it.
I won't list the pros, since it really is a very excellent screen. I use it for both work and gaming and it quite excels at both. I'm used to a Dell IPS screen, and I find that both text and graphics works well on it.

There's a few cons, though, but since the pros are far larger than these cons, I'll still give it five stars.
Cons:
1) There's no USB-C DisplayPort Alt Mode. There's one USB-C exit port for computers, so you can connect mouse/keyboard/etc to the screen and then connect the screen to your computer. But since there's only one USB-C exit port you cannot switch between computers without moving cables around. This really should be an included feature.

2) Besides from the USB-C exit port for computers, there's only two other USB-C ports. Why? We'd really like more ports.
3) There's no jackstik for headphones. Why?
4) There's only USB-C ports. Why? Most of us still have USB-A equipment and it is more than a little annoying to have to use adapters and usb-hubs.
5) The USB-C ports are too close together; you cannot use USB-A equipment with an USB-C adapter, since there's simple not enough room between the USB-C ports. Instead you are forced to use a hub.
6) The screen menu is slow and sluggish. Has a lot of quite excellent features besides from that and the controls works very well, but it is slooooow.

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.] Unboxing and setting up the Samsung 49” Odyssey G9 DQHD Gaming Monitor was a breeze. My initial impression of size,form and fit and finish was a little overwhelming in all the right ways. It’s big in the right places, shiny in the right places and refined in the right places. I wanted to capture my initial thoughts and I will continue with my experience over the first couple days.

Better than expected

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Let me start with the size of this monitor. It is huge. It has a nice, slim profile so there is plenty of room for keyboard, speakers and whatever you use. When first purchasing I didn’t expect this to have built on speakers, well it does and it makes it a lot easier for our setup. We do have external speakers, but they are used with other monitors so this was the perfect scenario in our case. The built in speakers deliver pretty decent sound, there is no cracking or noises that shouldn’t be there. The same goes for music, it’s clear and we encountered no problems. Another plus was the super easy setup. It walks you right through it and is done in less than ten minutes. You get access to apps just like a smart tv would give you, so you can watch Hulu, Netflix, YouTube etc without jumping through hoops or needing a keyboard to access them. We mainly use the centered screen, but switching to split screens is super easy and just a couple clicks away. It has one mini hdmi port, and two regular ones next to the computer ports you’d expect. So far we are really happy with this monitor and it is by far exceeding our expectations.

Going to need a bigger desk

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I will go through the pro's and con's on this monitor. Pro's are the brightest colors and the darkest blacks make gaming incredibly immersive. Set up was quick and easy. Easy transition from gaming to watching streaming services with built in apps. Con's are how much heat it puts off. I don't have my monitor against a wall but if it was it would radiate heat back at me and that would make me uncomfortable. It is not true 4K so if you are looking for that you might be disappointed with this monitor.

Best screen

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have no idea where to start with this review,because there is so many great things to say. Let's first address the size at 49" i love the fact that I can see and read it without my glasses. I adore the curvature of the screen as on my desk I feel as it wraps me putting me directly into the screen. Although it's a gaming computer I use it mainly for crafts but it's a life savor as with the crispness of the picture you clearly see every detail. I feel most importantly that this is a must buy item as it can double as a tv,watching netflix on it again you feel like your in the movie as the screen wraps you the sound quality is amazing you really will feel as you're there.
