SAMSUNG 32 Odyssey G55A QHD 165Hz 1ms FreeSync Curved Gaming Monitor with HDR 10, Futuristic Design for Any Desktop (LS32AG550ENXZA)

Its a good monitor. PS5 and xbox you can at max do 120hz at 2k. And 165 HZ is ONLY AVALIABLE THROUGH THE DISPLAY PORT. I dont know about xbox, but PS5 CANNOT intreprt Display Port Signals. I even got a Disport Port to HDMI Adapter but still not signal. So dont expect 165 hz unless you can use display port.

I wish I would have switched to a monitor sooner this monitor is clear the colors great! I am very happy with this one!

It is a great monitor, and the price was pretty good. My older son has a larger monitor, which I like a lot better, but it was quite a bit more expensive. Overall, it is a good value.

My first monitor the one that I am keeping is a 5+ for the price. I want 2 displays and every additional one has a true white issue. This is with all settings equal, it follows the monitor when swapping sources. The only difference is the embedded software on the more white one is 1008. The others are 1009.1. It could be that samsung received a batch of bad LEDs or toned down the brightness to compensate for possible early failures? The 3 additional monitors from Amazon may be from the same lot? Any how I could not adjust this out with Gama, color, brightness, contrast, and is a shame. The first monitor kicks! I dont know if I want to go through more returns to get a good one. So bottom line if you order one and the white is just not that white you may be seeing what I have. Yes cables, drivers, widows, graphic cards all have been checked the same source to the good monitor when applied to the others still show the monitors to be off white.

I ordered the g50a 2022 refresh for $347 including tax. I saw that Amazon has these monitors listed completely wrong because I ordered a curved qhd 165hz monitor and the g50a doesnt have a curved option on the Samsung website. I looked up the serial number that was on the box when it got here and it showed a g5 that costs $500+ so I got a pretty damn good deal.

If anyone was looking into getting a new monitor, whether it be for a first-time desktop user or a long-awaited upgrade, this is a perfect choice. But there are some important flaws that I would like to point out. First of which is the stand. It is not the type of monitor to have the ability to vertically adjust. You are only restricted to adjusting the angle on the x-axis. Second, the instructions are clear but lack a lot of important details. To my knowledge, it doesnt once say you have to change the refresh rate through its menu. I later found out there was a more advanced guide on google if you just search it up. Im only putting this here because of the inconvenience. The third and final is the amount of space this monitor takes up. I luckily have a very big workspace so I have no problems when it comes to finding space for this monitor. But, if you currently use a small desk something around the dimensions of 28 3/4x19 5/8 or close then you might want to invest in a monitor arm. The base for the monitor is unnecessarily long, so having a small desk can bring up slight annoyances. Those three flaws are the only problems Ive experienced so far. Thanks for listening to my TED Talk.

There’s nothing really I dislike about this monitor for the price. I use this monitor for gaming and I’m very satisfied with its performance. I sit close and it consumes me. I like it a lot

This monitor, the G5, is a huge upgrade from my old ASUS VS228. The 144hz is smooth and makes games feel much more responsive (when I can run them that well). The FreeSync works with GSync on my GTX 1660 Super, and makes everything feel even smoother. It gets plenty bright, and the configuration menus are very easy to navigate with the fairly intuitive power button/navigation stick. I was definitely confused from the reviews here before. The G7 reviews are also available on this page, which is not often made clear. There is no LED on the back of the G5, just the small light by the power button to indicate on/off working modes. The HDR is honestly lackluster. It does provide a slightly higher dynamic range and makes available things like HDR-compatible YouTube videos, but it washes out lots of the colors. Everything will generally look better if you just keep HDR off in Windows settings. The reviews I’ve seen here seem to indicate that the HDR on the G7 is much nicer, so I’ll be considering upgrading to that when I can. Overall, this is a great choice for people looking for 1440p or 144hz gaming/content. This monitor does of course have flaws, and it can be frustrating to find out what those are through the disorganized reviews here. Hopefully you see this review and it sheds some more light on this product!

I really enjoy the monitor itself, however the manufactures made big mistake with original stand is glaring. Along with the purchase of this monitor I also bought a swing arm mount to use instead on the original stand. I first assembled the monitor and validated that it was working. See that everything was working i removed the original stem and legs and I then mounted it on the new swing arm.. At this point the monitor would no longer turn on. I contacted vendor support via chat to troubleshoot (which was limited to the basics of is it plugged in, didnt you use the right button, etc..) After unsuccessful chat, I requested an exchanged, which Amazon getting high marks for. Upon reciept of replacement, to my surprise, this one doesnt come on either. I decided too try a hunch and was amazed and dishearten to find that the original stands stem has to be attached!!! This is total nonsense!! Its looks like crap! I had expected more from Samsung!

Overall it is an excellent monitor. Comes in at 144hz but you can easily overclock to 165hz and it stays stable. Samsung has quality products and I havent really had many issues with the screen. I do love the curve and the size of this monitor. Cons: Compared to my 1440p Dell monitor the colors are slightly washed even after adjusting the settings. (Not a deal breaker it still looks good just noticeable against my other monitor) Some backlight bleed through on very dark scenes. Overall 4/5 stars especially because it was only 270 bucks when I bought it so for that price it is well worth it. The G7 is obviously a better model but the price reflects that. For most gamers this model will be more than enough. I dont notice much screen tearing on FPS games or sports games which is nice so the response time is actually what it says it is. I havent had any durability issues as some others have stated in reviews. I however do not use the stand it comes with but a vesa mount from my desk.
