I bought this monitor because it was recommended by rtings and I am more than happy. The monitor is great for 1440p 120fps with a very low input latency. Colors are great too.

HDR looks meh but acceptable on my Samsung odyssey G7 27" because it has 600nits peak brightness and 6 dimming zones.

I have a Samsung Odyssey G7 27" and it's how some people here are saying : no matter what i did with the settings, the blacks had that weird light gray overlay on them, they were not truly black.

In the end, the curve was just too much for me. Especially for a 27 inch.

Samsung odyssey G7, the 27” one. 240 refresh rate. Its colors don’t pop quite as much as I’d like but everything else is good.

Samsung Odyssey G7 27" Gaming Monitor. Was expensive as hell but I quickly realized it's not worth it and it's a product that's FAR from perfect even though it checks all the boxes on spec sheet.

I just got a Samsung Odyssey G7 27" for a pretty good price on eBay (a bit of an impulse buy) and I'm very pleased with it so far.

I had a Samsung Odyssey G7 (27" curved VA panel) and I prefer it over my current monitor. However, the Samsung monitor died less than a month after I had it.

I am currently using Samsung Odyssey G7 27" pairing with 3070. The one I have is curved model so it's VA panel. The color isn't as great as IPS but upgrading it from TN panel. It's night and day difference for me. Works really well

Takes a couple days to get used to the curve but it’s worth it

I had to disable it on my Samsung Odyssey G7 27 because low framerate compensation sucked on that monitor

I bought a Samsung Odyssey G7 27" monitor and was pretty bummed to discover it doesn't support 1440p VRR.

I got the curved Samsung Odyssey G7 27" a few weeks ago but was quite dissappointed by it.

I use the Samsung Odyssey G7 27”, moving from a 4K 55” inch tv (wife got fed up of me taking over the tv for the PS5 and made me move it to the office) the image quality is still beautiful

Had the same issue with my Samsung Odyssey G7 27". RMA'd it and had the panel changed.

O upgrade na qualidade de imagem (vindo de um samsung VA 24 60hz com mais de 10 anos de uso) foi absurdo! Me impressionou mais do que o upgrade na GPU

just upgraded my monitor today to a Samsung Odyssey G7 27" WQHD 240hz monitor and it's pretty much handled most of what I've thrown at it.
