Samsung Odyssey Neo G7 32" Curved

Overview

The Neo G7 is a 4K VA LCD with a 165Hz refresh rate. But the key addition here is the mini-LED backlight with 1,196 zones, giving gamers proper local dimming functionality that you need for HDR content, and brightness up to what Samsung claims is 2000 nits.

Samsung's Odyssey Neo G7 is a near-TV-size gaming monitor with a panel that will dazzle, if you're willing to overlook a few operational quirks.

The Samsung Odyssey Neo G7 brings with it eye-catching Mini-LED technology in a 43-inch size for those looking for a 4K monitor. It's excellent in terms of showing off your games, while doubling up as a smart TV and general use monitor.

The Samsung Odyssey Neo G7 is great for gaming. It has a high 165Hz with VRR support to reduce screen tearing. It also has a 4k resolution and HDMI 2.1 bandwidth that allows you to play high-frame-rate games. Motion looks smooth, and it has low input lag for a responsive feel. However, there are issues with flickering when the frame rate of your game drops, which can be distracting.

If you don’t mind the steep 1000R screen curvature, the Samsung Odyssey Neo G7 is the best 4K HDR gaming monitor you can get for the money.

That said, the Samsung Odyssey Neo G7 remains a capable gaming monitor that’s thoroughly enjoyable to use. The 28in panel is vibrant, pin-sharp and exceptionally responsive, and while HDR disappoints, the SDR image quality is excellent. Factor in the presence of HDMI 2.1 support and – if you find it for the right price – this could be a great buy.

The Samsung Odyssey Neo G7 S32BG75 is not perfect, but it’s a great gaming monitor if you are willing to invest over a grand. It’s capable of great HDR and gaming performance, so it will be a treat to use for your PC, PS5, or Xbox Series X. It’s well-designed with a robust chassis, but it could use the addition of USBD-C to make it more flexible.
