as well, with this panel legitimately offering a “1ms G2G” response time spec without needing some ridiculous overdrive mode with a load of horrible overshoot. Consider which cover meets your needs, the length of policy, the type of cover and the cost of the excess and payment terms. The average contrast ratio of the screen was measured at a slightly disappointing 1896:1 which was strong thanks to the VA technology panel but a fair bit lower than the specified 2500:1 figure. It marked a turning point for VA panel technology in terms of response times, refresh rate and gaming performance.

Samsung have now released their new “Odyssey” line-up of screens, boasting high 240Hz refresh rates in a range of sizes and with some impressive additional specs.

The BG70 is available in 28 and 32-inch screen sizes, while the AG70 is available in just a 28-inch screen size.

The black to grey transitions along the top row of the table were overall very good relative to other VA panels and this meant low levels of black smearing on moving content, something that normally plagues VA panels. Like the 27″ model, by default it is set at 60 in the OSD which over-accentuates the sharpness of the image for normal office and desktop use we felt.

Local dimming zones were increased to 1,196 and combined with the highest 12-bit black levels to create unmatched picture quality. In this section we look at the response time behaviour across the range of supported refresh rates and consider whether they are sufficient to keep up with the frame rate demands of the screen. There is a slightly more aggressive overdrive on the 27″ model which leads to that slight improvement, but then you get a slight bit of additional pale overshoot as a result. The LG gets much brighter in HDR to make highlights pop, but if you want to use the monitor in a well-lit room, the Samsung has better reflection handling.A very little bit of pale overshoot on darker backgrounds perhaps as you might be able to pick out from the pursuit camera photos below, but it was minimal and actually a little better there than the 27″ model (which was still good in this area anyway). The joystick also gives quick access to the brightness/sharpness/contrast options, the input selection menu and the volume control which is handy. Samsung Care+ gives peace of mind for your new Galaxy device, providing protection against accidents and theft.

While text looks sharp thanks to its 4k resolution and high pixel density, some letters aren't as bold as on other 32-inch, 4k displays like the Samsung Odyssey Neo G8 S32BG85.This monitor is a newer version of the Samsung Odyssey G7 S28AG70, and it's part of Samsung's Odyssey G7 lineup that includes a variety of models; you can see the differences between them below. The sleek matte exterior is paired with a head-turning lighting panel for a vibe straight from the future. Gaming escapes beyond the screen with CoreSync technology that matches your game's on-screen colours for world-blending immersion. The white point was also now improved to 6511k which was great news, although out of the box there had been minimal deviance there of only 2% being slightly too warm. We also changed to Mode2 gamma which we know out of the box had delivered a slightly better gamma curve.

The Odyssey G7 Monitor features a 32" flat panel utilizing IPS technology, producing enhanced brightness and wider viewing angles. The EOTF doesn't follow the target PQ curve well with bright scenes, meaning the image looks darker than it should. With core lighting, add personality to your setup with multiple colour modes that leap off the screen and into your reality.Have a read about response time in our specs section if you need additional information about this measurement. Samsungs 32 inch monitor, Odyssey G7 gaming monitor is designed for gamers, video creation editing and any business application with fast moving content, delivering a crisp and immersive experience that wraps around your field of view. The main difference is that the Neo G7 has a VA panel with Mini LED backlighting, resulting in a much better contrast and local dimming feature. G-Sync compatibility keeps the GPU and panel synced up to eliminate choppiness, screen-lag and image tears. It seems to be linked to VRR / adaptive-sync usage and perhaps more apparent at the lower end of the VRR range or where LFC is needed below the 60Hz/80Hz (dependent on model) minimum supported.
