      so will millions of monitors sold there's hundreds on a fb group.

      sounds "wide spread"

        Ok, maybe that wasn't the best point to be made but the QC of Samsung monitors are much worse than others.

        I previously owned two g9s (both rma), and a g9 neo (Samsung offered upgrade due to previous issues)

        G9 had so many issues, g9 neo had the exact same issues they never resolved.,

        their newest g8 has massive scanline issues as well. Check any forum or subreddit
        They can't get their shit together.

        Their specs looks good on paper but if you're spending like 3k on a monitor you expect it be working properly.

        Why would you blindly defend a billion dollar company?

    • mwblink86 on 28/09/2022 - 15:56

      I've had Samsung monitors for 6 plus years with no problem

      • scuderiarmani on 29/09/2022 - 07:44

        What model? The issue has been since they entered the high end market.

    • jaygee on 28/09/2022 - 16:18

      Every monitor in the world will have some issues.

      • scuderiarmani on 29/09/2022 - 07:43

        He's right, the recent high end Samsung efforts, especially factoring price, have been quite mixed.

    this orientation is interesting, has anyone attempted this way and found it useful?

    • BBF on 28/09/2022 - 16:11

      It rotates to landscape for normal use.
      My 32" 4K flat screen does the same. I only rotate portrait 5% of time. Can be useful for tall stuff or if stacking windows makes more sense for a task than side by side. I zero game.

      • slowmo on 28/09/2022 - 16:37

        i get vertical flat screen, because i do portraits for 1 of my screens.

        i'm curious how practical it is for curve monitors in this orientation.

    Why the eff would you use this in portrait mode lol.

    • easternculture on 28/09/2022 - 15:58

    Is this much better than the Samsung G9 ?

    • zorak on 28/09/2022 - 16:11

      its 16:9

  • HD9990 on 28/09/2022 - 16:00

    Would expect a quicker refresh rate than 165Hz for the asking price. Can pay far less for better like Samsung Odyssey G9 49" DQHD 240Hz 1ms G-Sync Ready HDR1000 Curved QLED Monitor at $2,300

    • DisasterArea on 30/09/2022 - 09:01

      The Odyssey 49 "non-neo" doesn't have the mini LED backlight, and is nowhere near as good.
      I think they've branded it the NEO Odyssey G95 now (rather than G9?) - and this is $29000 everywhere.

      I've been looking at the much cheaper AOC Agon 49" - can be had under $1500 and is close the non-neo samsung G9.

      Currently I have 3x 1080P AOC 1500R curved 24" VA panels, 144hz, which is a bit too narrow, want a little more height and a little less width….. so I might move them on.
      3 screens were under $300 Ea, so ~$800 for a complete triplescreen setup with custom stand is soooo much cheaper than any of these ultrawides, even half the price of AOC's own 49"

  • zorak on 28/09/2022 - 16:10

    I wish they would make a 55 inch 32:9

    And what's the deal with no display port? I don't think gsync / VRR compatible freesync whatever works over HDMI with Nvidia (maybe HDMI 2.1)

  • gasman70 on 28/09/2022 - 16:14

    I'd absolutely love one of these, but come on, that price is ridiculous.

    • kehuehue on 28/09/2022 - 16:16

      if only it was OLED, the 55" S95B OLED 4K Smart TV (2022) is for $2,699.10 (flat though)

  • krisspy on 28/09/2022 - 16:15

    Remember when flagship tv's were curved years ago? Have we gone full circle with the fad again?

    • gasman70 on 28/09/2022 - 16:19

      I am not sure if they work in living rooms, watching movies but in my experience they definitely work in an office environment.

    Not even OLED. lol no thanks. Who are they trying to fool? 65" OLED can be had for under 3k

    • Nathw on 28/09/2022 - 16:30

      You don't get 165Hz on your OLED Tv, do you?

        The human eye caps out at around 60 FPS.

        The human brain caps out at around 120 FPS.

        Anything beyond 120 is such a minuscule improvement it's almost pointless.

          Please tell me you're joking, you cant honestly believe that crap in 2022.

            @Axelstrife: He's right. Even Nvidia showed this in promo for 360hz display. They got top 1% csgo players and after 144hz the advantage dropped from like 14% to just 3%. So anything above 144hz is pretty pointless for 99.9% of people.

        Would rather the LG C2 55" OLED 120Hz for half the price than this piece of circular crap.

    Two 4k Monitors on a Vertical Monitor Stand works out way way cheaper.

    Expensive screen for Pokies at home

    • krisspy on 28/09/2022 - 17:30

      Still cheaper than a few slaps for most

  • ONEMariachi on 28/09/2022 - 17:01

    What makes this a monitor exactly? No display port? What differentiates this from a curved TV

    • Axelstrife on 28/09/2022 - 17:51

      The line between the two are quite close these days but "Adjust screen size and ratio to enjoy multiple content sources at once with just one touch of Ark Dial" this is something that would make this worth it over a 55" OLED imo.
