To play like a pro
You just have to see the dimensions of this monitor to understand that we are not facing any screen. It is true that it is not the first 49-inch model that we can find in the market, and it is that Samsung itself already had a similar model in its catalog, however, this new generation pushes the specifications to the limit, to the point that some Users should wait for updates to their graphics drivers to get the most out of it.
The reason is in the 244 Hz It offers maximum response at a resolution of 5,120 x 1,440 pixels. Not the most suitable resolution or panel for PS5 and Xbox Series X (the new consoles They will not offer support for ultra-wide resolutions), but there is no doubt that more than one would dream of having one of these screens on their desktop.
Extremely curved
The most recommended use is to connect it to a powerful computer to get the most out of it, something that added to its curvature 1000R It will allow the player to have a full perspective very similar to the viewing angle of the human eye, so first person games will feel quite realistic. Its extension will also help in MOBA type games, making it a highly recommended equipment for gaming professionals.
As you can see in the image, the difference between the 1800T and 1000R panels is quite evident, and it may be that for some it is too excessive a curvature, although the manufacturer assures that it helps to obtain an excellent immersion thanks to the peripheral vision it offers.
Top technology
In addition to the resolution and the curvature, we must bear in mind that we are facing a panel QLED with HDR1000 and resolution DQHD, so it promises spectacular colors, contrast and brightness in all kinds of situations. To this we must add a response time of 1 ms and the label of being the first Dual QHD monitor in the world.
How much?
Unfortunately Samsung has not gone into details of how much this new model will cost, however, if we look at the previous model of 2019, we can have a slight idea of where the price could go. The 49-inch model of 2019 was launched with an official price of 1,299 euros, but it must be taken into account that the radius of curvature of this model is 1800R, so the Odyssey G9 from 2020 will most likely slightly rise taking into account all the innovations it has included. That said, it would not be too far-fetched to bet on the 1,400 or 1,500 euros.
