Samsung Odyssey G8 LS34BG850SUXXU Curved OLED 34" UWQHD Smart Gaming Monitor - 0.1ms, 175Hz, HDMI 2.1, Full Smart Platform, Speakers

Bought this display recently, really happy with it. Build is lovely, Back plate is aluminium, with a glossy front finish. Smart features are a nice bonus, There is a nice mode where you can change the black tones to be a bit brighter to become a greyish tint, really helps with fps games. Just note in mind it uses micro HDMI 2.1, mini Display port 1.4, and two usb c ports, one which can read (dp 1.4) input and charge your device and the other which you can use to plug an external device to use with the monitor. I would recommend usb c to Display port connection though if your using any of the asus zephyrus linups which dont support hdmi 2.1 i would personally get a dongle. If your looking for an HDMI to micro HDMI cable (Their hard to find) i would recommend hama. Overall a great monitor. Well worth it! Edit: I have had this display for a while now, holds up great, I have not had any OLED burn-in which is a relief, not used the TV mode that much but it’s always handy, watching films in this is great, especially when the movies have a 21:9 picture. Sound quality is good, fit is perfect for where I wanted it and it was easy to set up. In the end, this was a good purchase, I would recommend you buy this product if you have the cash. Always nice to go from 16:9 to a 21:9 display, Very Nice Product Samsung! 😃 Edit 2: It’s has been over a year so far, the display has been amazing. I use this display for work and video games and it performs well in both. I still have no OLED burnin yet (which is very good) and it still performs how it did when I opened the box. I have had one small issue though, with this display after a year of use sometimes (if you decide to keep your display at maximum height) it will slowly lower itself, this is because of the weight of the screen compared the stand mechanism itself. It is still an excellent purchase, I would recommend it to anyone looking for a curved ultra wide.

Amazing panel, looks incredible This does not support video over usb c It is quite loud (whine) surprisingly so Crap inputs and outputs

I recently switched to this monitor from my old LG 38GL950 (£1500) IPS monitor, due to issues with connectivity and intermittent issues where it would just stop working altogether. The difference is mind-blowing. I originally chose the LG monitor for it's great picture quality, but the G8 OLED makes that look like cheap trash in comparison. The G8 OLED is so incredibly colourful, bright and rich-looking. The motion in gaming feels really great and the fringing you hear about online is not really noticeable unless you put your face a few inches from the display. Of course I'm worried about burn-in, so maybe I'll return to change this review in a year or two, but for now I am more than ecstatic with this monitor. Amazing!

Amazing monitor, I was sceptical after seeing all the mixed reviews but it was well worth it. Top tier for multitasking as well as 240mhz gaming.

I kept my eye on this monitor for ages and as soon as the price dropped by a fair chunk, took the plunge. I was excited to receive the first OLED screen I'd ever owned. The monitor arrived and was sparsely packaged in a single shelled box for such an expensive product. After setting the monitor up, which was relatively simple, I plugged it all in, rebooted my machine and eventually got a picture after a lot of initial setup. Instantly I was bombarded with a horrendous hissing / whining noise from the monitor that cut straight through my head. The pitch and volume seemed to depend on the colour and intensity of what was in the middle of the screen. I searched the net and found "coil whine" was a big issue for some people who immediately RMA'd the monitor as it was clearly faulty. It's a little hard to believe that for a product that originally retailed for £1300, Samsung would let a monitor with such a horrific flaw go to market. 3 minutes of sitting in front of this thing with altering pitches of whine slicing through my head was more than enough to hit the refund button, package it back up and send it back. Really disappointing as the panel itself looked incredible in the small amount of time I used it.

The picture and colours are great on this screen. Pleased with my purchase. It is a bit pricey though.

This is without doubt the best monitor I have ever used in terms of picture quality that should earn 5 stars, but there are some major issues: there is no headphone jack so if you use analog headphones you need a USB-C adapter, however the monitor intermittently fails to detect this cutting out. Using bluetooth headphones works perfectly well but they are poor and work badly with Windows. Also occasionally the screen switches "mode" to optimise which should be fine - but in doing so it displays a massive message which takes up half the screen, which at the wrong time is annoying. Otherwise the build quality is solid and elegant, and the picture stunning. If I'd have known about the issues i have though I would have picked a different screen.
