During Black Friday 2024 last week, Samsung dropped the price of its 57-inch Odyssey G9 Neo to its lowest-ever price of $1400. That discount is not as good anymore as the gaming monitor, which is up by $100 now. In case you missed that and are looking for an excellent ultrawide display, Samsung"s other premium Odyssey model, the OLED variant of the G9, is still selling at its lowest price (purchase link under the specs list below).
There are a few differences between the OLED and the Neo, the most obvious one being that the former is based on OLED technology. Aside from that, the OLED G9 is also smaller in size, and although both carry a 32:9 aspect ratio, the Neo is a dual 4K display while the OLED is a Dual QHD (1440p). Thanks to OLED, though, this one has much better contrast and color reproduction, although you miss out a bit on the brightness side.
The key specification details about the Odyssey G9 OLED are given below:
- Resolution: 5120 x 1440
- Aspect Ratio: 32:9
- Brightness (Typical): 250 nits
