The ultrawide gaming monitor market has exploded in popularity in recent years, and Samsung is taking full advantage with the release of the 49-inch Odyssey OLED G9. Not only is Samsung using OLED technology, which is lauded for its inky blacks and rich colors, but it uses the uncommon Dual Quad HD resolution (5120 x 1440). That works out to an aspect ratio of 32:9 and offers a lot of horizontal real estate to view multiple documents side-by-side.
But the Odyssey OLED G9 is mostly about gaming, which is confirmed by its 0.03ms response time (gray-to-gray) and 240Hz refresh rate with AMD FreeSync Premium Pro support. As you might expect, the Odyssey OLED G9 employs Samsung’s Quantum Dot technology, which results in a richer color palette and improved brightness over what’s already possible with traditional OLED panels.
