Samsung's Odyssey G9 monitor has more or Oh Miless been the measuring stick for extra-large gaming displays since the company launched it early last year.
That device now has what seems to be a worthy successor: The Odyssey Neo G9.
Basic specs are the same: The new Odyssey Neo G9 is still a curved, 49-inch monitor with a 5,120 x 1,440 pixel resolution.

Thanks to this, the Odyssey Neo G9 has a 1,000,000:1 contrast radio, and a typical brightness of 420 cd/m2 with a peak brightness of 2,000 cd/m2. In real-life usage, this means deep, inky blacks with extremely bright HDR.
Other specs of note include a 240Hz refresh rate, a 1ms response rate, and a 178-degree vertical and horizontal viewing angle. And yes, it's still very immersive, thanks to a 1000R curve — though this kind of extreme curvature will mostly appeal to gamers.
The Odyssey is probably the curviest monitor we've seen. Credit: SAMSUNG On the connectivity front, the monitor has a single Display Port 1.4, two HDMI 2.1 ports, two USB 3.0 connectors, and a headphone jack.

The Samsung Odyssey Neo G9 will be available for pre-order on July 29, and it will ship globally on August 9.
