The read
What's actually worth knowing.
- The 180Hz refresh rate and 1ms response time are solid for gaming, though not top-tier compared to 240Hz+ monitors on the market.
- The Black Equalizer feature lets you brighten dark areas in games to spot enemies in shadows, which is useful for tactical shooters and darker games.
- You get HDR10 support for better contrast and color depth, which makes games look more detailed, but this monitor isn't a high-end HDR display.
As of Aug 16, the Samsung 27" Odyssey G5 (G51F) Gaming Monitor is overpriced at $223.05 — versus a $206.84 typical price and a $149.99 12-month low, based on Amazon's own price history.
