SAMSUNG 27” Odyssey OLED G6 (G61SD) QHD & QD-OLED 240Hz 0.03ms FreeSync Premium Pro Gaming Monitor with Sleek Metal Design, 3 Year Warranty, US, LS27DG610SNXZA, 2024

FANTASTIC, VIBRANT, BEAUTIFUL MONITOR.This is my response to most negative reviews:Listen, I have owned MANY different monitors over the last 10 or so years, from VA to IPS all the way to OLED. And this monitor my friend, is gorgeous.BEZELS: Now, I see a LOT of people complaining about the black "bezels" around the monitor, which "make it appear smaller". This is nothing but placebo, yes, there are 'gaps' between the bezels of the chassis of the monitor and the actual panel itself (See pictures). So it LOOKS like it might be smaller than a traditional IPS 27" screen. But I've done measurements and the screen itself is about 26.6 inches. Whereas my old 27" Samsung IPS monitor screen is about ~26.7 inches. THIS IS MINIMAL AND NOT NOTICEABLE. Good luck trying to find an OLED without it.. ALSO TURN OFF THE LIGHTS IN YOUR ROOM IF THIS REALLY BOTHERS YOU THAT MUCHCOLOR FRINGING WITH HIGH-CONTRAST TEXT(See pictures): Color fringing in QD-OLED monitors occurs due to their unique triangular subpixel layout, unlike the traditional RGB stripe pattern found in IPS displays. This layout improves brightness and color accuracy but can cause text clarity issues since most text rendering algorithms are optimized for RGB stripes. As a result, fine text may appear with colored edges or slight blurring, especially at smaller sizes or high-contrast settings. And because you are buying a 1440p monitor, this is close to unavoidable. And like what a lot of reviewers said, its really a personal thing whether is bothers you are not. For me, this was something I noticed ever so slightly at first, and then after using this monitor for a few days, I had to actively look for it to notice it. (If you plan to just use this as a gaming monitor, then you will never notice this in games) don't forget you're supposed to be 2ft away from your screen. And if you can't afford the 4k version that's okay, don't leave negative reviews about color fringing when you're talking about a 1440p qd-oled.Display: Oh. My. Gosh. Does this monitor not look absolutely stunning. The vibrant popping colors, the inky deep blacks, the responsiveness, the refresh rate. This display feels almost too good to own. You can go to the review for the G60SD on Rtings.com and get the ICC profile (color calibration file) for this panel. And once you get your HDR and colors right, this monitor just pops out at you. High-contrast scenes in video games/ movies pop out at you in a realistic way. I noticed this especially with flashlights in video games, it almost tricks your brain more into looking like real life. It's SO hard to describe without seeing it in person. I TRULY believe most people who have complained about this have not calibrated correctly, or are just blind to a certain degree, which is okay too.. (Also if you are an editor, I don't care what people say, this is a great monitor for you too...) INSANELY accurate colors, I do some color-grading and this next to my studio monitor looks close to identical color-wise, but, of course, the vibrancy isn't comparable to QD-OLED.Don't let the negative reviews fool you, most times its either snobby or ignorance.You will most likely be blown away by this screen and love it.Enjoy!

This Samsung G6 Odyssey QD-OLED is a nice OLED Monitor for HD gaming and home computer use. I recently purchased a new gaming pc with a 5080, so i wanted to upgrade my Asus 60hz IPS screen. I initially purchased an MSI MAG 321upx 32" OLED, but I was not sure about the move from 27 to 32. Well, the OLED maintenance on the MSI was so terrible it would pop up & interrupt you several times a day every day, even in the middle of a game. That was a deal breaker, so i decided to try a 27" OLED. That's when I found this Samsung G6 Odyssey 27" OLED & I am very happy with it so far. The colors are vibrant & sharp & running at 240hz through the 8k displayport cable makes for very smooth gameplay with high detail settings & high FPS. The OLED maintenance is also unintrusive as it runs when it goes into standby & if it happens to popup that I interrupted it I set the timeout to 5 seconds so it clears on its own quickly. I'm not sure how OLED screens will hold up over time but I am very happy with this purchase & very happy I made the swap from the MSI MAG 32' OLED to this Samsung G6 27" OLED.

I've been wanting an OLED monitor forever. I finally have a monitor that can produce black and be easy on my eyes. Picture is very nice. Brightness is easy to control. My only complaint is the on/off button because it is difficult to use. A simple on/off button would be better than the joy stick button whose anti-jitter settings combined with on response delay make the button hard to use.

I bought this monitor to replace my old 22-inch Samsung monitor, which has a TN panel that I've had for 5 years, and I must say it was totally worth it. It's true that the investment isn't for everyone, but if you're willing to pay the money, I don't think you'll be disappointed. Everything to do with the colors, the brightness, the viewing angles, the fact that the back isn't as robust... I'm sure you'll appreciate it.

Bought the new (there are no Rtings reviews yet for it) G61SD model, installed it today and used for some time. Overall the image quality is good and Samsung's matte screen is much better than any glossy display if you have less-than-completely-dark room, however there's a very major, very noticeable (to me) issue. The displayed image does not cover the whole surface of physical OLED display (I don't count bezels of a case as a part of display) - even at a native resolution there are ALWAYS noticeable "gaps" on at least 2 sides of the image, due to "Pixel Shift" feature needing to use that display space to "shift" the image without cutting off any visible parts. What's worse, there is no way to turn off "Pixel Shift", at least on this particular model - yes, I know that this is supposed to prevent "burn-in" over time, but I am perfectly ok with increasing the chance of "burn-in" as long as I can fully utilize the whole surface of OLED display at all times. It should ALWAYS be my, the user's, choice whether enable or disable such option.In an addition to this, the silver metal frame edge of display's case is also very noticeable at all times and provides a very "non-immersive" experience, be it either playing games or watching movies/videos. Samsung should've anodized it with black color, or covered it with black plastic. Oh, and I should also probably mention the very, very flimsy "JOG button" on its back which controls the OSD and turns the monitor on/off - it hasn't broken yet but after using it a couple of times it really feels like it won't last for long time.All in all, it was a pretty disappointing experience with it and this will definitely be going back.
