Samsung Electronics, the number one player in the gaming monitor market[1], recently announced the global launch of its next-generation Odyssey G9 curved gaming monitor. Unveiled at CES 2020, the G9 joins the G7 in the Odyssey lineup, which has reinvented the gaming experience by bringing together key elements of next-level game play: comfortable curvature, immersive interaction and incredible picture quality.

The Odyssey portfolio’s premium performance has been certified by TÜV Rheinland[2], a leading international certification organization, which recognized the Odyssey monitors with the industry’s best high performance 1000R Curved Display and “Eye Comfort” certificate. The Odyssey G9 is also the first monitor certified to support HRD10+[3], enabling it to deliver games and content in ground-breaking quality through a combination of Quantum dot technology and an HDR1000 panel.

Moreover, the innovative design of the Odyssey G9 won the CES 2020 Innovation Awards in the Computer Peripherals and Accessories category.

“Following our recent announcement of the Odyssey G7 curved gaming monitor, the G9 now joins the portfolio as the first dual QHD gaming monitor with 1000R curvature. This further solidifies Samsung’s leadership in the global gaming monitor market, with innovation happening at an unprecedented rate,” said Hyesung Ha, Senior Vice President of Visual Display Business at Samsung Electronics. “Samsung’s Odyssey G9 curved gaming monitor takes immersive gaming to the next level, giving any gamer the upper hand.”

Addressing gamers’ needs for lightning-fast speed, minimal distractions and maximum responsiveness, the G9 comes with Samsung’s latest display innovations. The 49-inch G9 is the world’s first Dual Quad High-Definition (DQHD; 5120×1440 resolution) gaming monitor that offers a deep and immersive 1000R curvature. The G9 is set to deliver a powerful combination of features under the hood, including rapid 1ms response time with a 240Hz refresh rate and crystal clear QLED picture quality for gaming in dual Quad High Definition (QHD). The Odyssey G9 further presents a groundbreaking gameplay experience, with dynamic and seamless action scene-by-scene enabled by NVIDIA G-SYNC® Compatibility and Adaptive Sync on DP1.4.

In Addition, the G9 pursues an innovative and futuristic design with a glossy white exterior. It also houses Infinity Core Lighting, which allows 52 different colours and five lighting effect options behind the display. The design and lighting effects stand out and complement any gaming setup.
