okay so right now I'll be talking about

the Samsung Odyssey g95 7 in I've been

using this for about 150 days now which

is like 4 months honestly doing

long-term reviews are kind of difficult

for me if I had like really big nitpicks

or there are certain things I didn't

like about anything I would have just

returned it by now and also some of the

things I was really love with initially

the novelty has worn off by now so all

I'm left with is just this monitor being

a part of my life and as a tool so I

guess that could be a good thing that's

mostly what I use this for it's a tool

to get things done and it's a gaming

monitor on the side so before I get into

anything let's get the build out of the

way it's made out of mostly glossy

plastic and I know that might sound like

a bad thing but I think it's to reduce

weight it weighs 41 lbs and this thing

was a nightmare picking it up from Best

Buy taking it up my stairs and getting

it set up on my desk and by the way I'm

going to have affiliate links from Best

Buy and Amazon if you are interested in

picking this monitor up and especially

as of right now it's on sale for 28% %

off it's essentially two high-end

monitors attached to one and most High

Caliber 4K monitors go for $11,000 each

anyway the G9 OLED was made out of metal

and that felt a bit more premium but I

like the way this 57 in looks with this

glossy white exterior looks futuristic

the stand is standard and it's massive

it takes up a lot of space it made me

have to buy a brand new desk to

accommodate this Monitor and one thing I

don't like is the cable management is

bad

but there's only a rubber strap at the

back to feed cables through and it

doesn't really do a great job of hiding

cables but it's also vase am mountable

too if you're able to find a monitor arm

that supports the size and weight of

this monitor next let's look at the menu

it's simple regular monitor stuff but

what I really like is there is no Tien

I've used lots of other Samsung monitors

that have a TV like OS and it's really

annoying for a computer monitor I just

want on and off and regular picture

settings not all these submenus and apps

and services and with Ty in something as

simple as switching inputs is buried in

so many different menus I hated those

including the G9 OLED monitor there's

also a really cool picture by picture

mode where you can have two different

sources side by side so the this monitor

is essentially two 32in 4K monitors

that's just kind of fused together so

it's perfect for that I haven't really

used that feat of those since I don't

really have a use case for it I usually

just use this monitor for my 9 to5 job

and at night time I'm using my personal

laptop to game edit photos and create

these videos here on YouTube so let's

talk about what it's like to use this

monitor in three different scenarios

both working a corporate 9o5 job content

creation for these YouTube videos photo

and video editing and third gaming of

course so first my 9 to5 I'm an

accounting manager for a large company

so I'm usually reviewing large

spreadsheets financial statements emails

Etc so having this extra Ultra wide

monitor has been essential for my

productivity during my 9 to5 the amount

of time I used to spend out tabing

between different Windows apps and

scrolling up and down and even left or

right for larger files things that used

to take me like half a day to do I can

now do it like 2 hours or so and it's

really because of this extra screed real

estate there's just nothing else like it

in the market right now so I mean

honestly this is a product ity monitor

disguised as a gaming Monitor and it's

better than dual monitors because you

can span apps across the entire wide

screen and you don't have to worry about

dragging different apps or different

Windows across screens you just move it

exactly to where you need it to and

especially when I'm using creative apps

like Adobe Premiere So speaking of which

let's just jump into what makes this

monitor great for Content creation as

well I can have a 20 minute long

timeline viewable on this monitor

without having to scroll around my

entire media library two clips and

there's even more room to spare if I

wanted to I'm jumping through way less

menus throughout my entire video

creation process and the fact that the

resolution is 7680 by 2160 editing

photos in Lightroom or photoshop look

really sharp too it's one thing that was

lacking on many of the other OLED

ultrawide monitors that I've had before

and to bounce back to productivity as

well because of the screen being so

pixel dense there's no weird sub pixel

layout like on most oleds and text and

numbers look really crisp and easy to

read as well too so now let's talk about

gaming when you're gaming unless you're

sitting back your eyes aren't seeing

this entire wide screen so pixels are

being wasted and there isn't any kind of

full vated rendering so your computer is

always pushing 4K resolution two times

always and it takes a really big hit on

your frame rate so you need a beastly

machine to run it so right now I would

recommend either a 4080 or a 4090

desktop card to really make use of the

screen if not you're just going to take

two big of a hit on frames and to a lot

of people that might not be worth it

even the RTX 490 on a laptop chugs along

in some games unless you start to lower

some of the settings like I mentioned

another issue is most games just don't

support 32 by9 so the sides look very

stretched out but thankfully like I

mentioned since it's in your peripheral

you're not really looking there but if

you're you're able to get past some of

these caveats I think you're in for a

treat it's a mini LED panel with over

2,000 dimming zones and yes I counted

them an HDR with over a th000 nits of

peak brightness I'll get to measurements

in a second but there is some blooming

and there is flicker when the dimming

zones are turned on you can turn them

off for a flicker-free experience so

this is especially great again coming

back to productivity tasks so now let's

get into the measurements you're not

getting the highest color gamut like you

would with cutie ola or OLED in general

I'm a bit shocked that we're not able to

get 100% of dcip 3 only 92 and this is

based off of my own measurements and

I've compared with others on the

internet and that's it that's that's

just what we're all getting I measured

on Max brightness with the native color

spectrum in the settings not the end of

the world though I've been able to

produce every single YouTube video that

I've done for the past four months on

this just fine photographers though you

may want to take a look at the Adobe RGB

gamut it's only 855 it might not be

enough for some of you but this monitor

has been great for gaming movies and

prer level content creation I think if I

was to get really serious about editing

HDR videos or I was going to start

editing like an Oscar award noteworthy

type of video production then maybe I

might not want to use this monitor just

but for the level of work that I do it's

been fine so max brightness and SDR is

973 and I was able to get over 1,000 in

HDR 973 n is just way too bright even a

daytime with my window right in front of

me it's still too bright honestly I'm

never using more than 48% brightness so

now let's look at contrast it's almost

22,000 to1 with local dimming but

without local dimming and also no

flicker it's 2600 to1 so it's a really

good native contrast without any of the

local dimming trickery but yeah OLED

does measure better especially in gaming

I noticed that I preferred OLED the

infinite contrast ratio is definitely

noticed I mean you can only do so much

with local dimming zones in order to get

the perfect micro contast you need each

individual pixel to be self- lit so

there are many scenes in video games

where the OLED still look substantially

better the colors did look more true to

live yet vibrant on the QD OLED 49 in

OLED for gaming mostly I would recommend

the 49 in and I'm also going to have

links to that one down below if you

prefer that but for me since I wear

these three hats right now between my 9

to5 UM content creation and gaming and

between my 9 to5 and content creation

there's not much time left for gaming

just maybe like a few hours at night my

priorities fall more along the line with

this larger 57in monitor for better

productivity workflows but honestly I

just think everything is just going to

be moving towards OLED I think this VA

panel with mini LED might be one of the

last of its kind but also like I said

there's just nothing else like this in

the market right now so this is the

monitor I bought not to review but to

use as a tool and I will continue to use

this monitor to game edit all the

content you see here on YouTube and also

in my 9 to5 job yeah so I think that's

going to do it for this one if you like

this video press some buttons down below

and I'll see you guys in the next one

thanks bye
