|  | | | PC World - 8 Oct (PC World)I’m into monitors. Like, really into monitors. I’ve got a tiny 360Hz monitor for esports, an ultrawide monitor for racing and sim games, a 4K HDR monitor for single-player epics, and a side monitor for productivity. Yeah, I have a problem. But during October Prime Day, I’m sorely tempted to pick up a single badass monitor to rule them all—because this deal could achieve my previously impossible dream.
Samsung’s jaw-dropping 49-inch Odyssey QD-OLED G93SC is on sale for $899.99 right now. Sure, that’s still a fat stack of cash, but it’s also a whopping $700 discount off its $1,600 retail price, and for a monitor this loaded, it’s a downright bargain.
Firstly, it’s ginormous. The 49-inch ultrawide screen sports a pixel-packed 5120×1440 resolution—that’s like two standard 1440p displays in one frame. That’s great for work and play alike! Forza Horizon and Elite Dangerous will stretch out to almost VR-like dimensions on this beast.
And they’ll look damned luscious doing so, too. I’ve tested OLED displays in the past, and their vivid colors and deep, deep blacks deliver gaming and media experiences that must be seen to be believed. Seriously, OLED will take your breath away and is a much better upgrade than switching to a 4K monitor. This Samsung Odyssey cranks it to 11 with its DisplayHDR True Black 400 certification, literally ensuring inky blacks reminiscent of deep space.
But (cue soundbite) that’s not all! While the Samsung Odyssey G9 can’t quite match the 360Hz speeds of my tiny 24-inch esports display, its 240Hz refresh rate will hold up fantastically in the cutthroat shooting games I can’t seem to tear myself away from. (Battlefield 6 inbound, y’all.) Pair that with the clean visuals and ultra-ultrawide aspect ratio and you’ve got everything you need to dominate the competition.
I truly believe this fully loaded S-tier gaming monitor is worth its full $1,600 asking price. At $899 with a 44 percent discount? My wallet still winces, but the idea of replacing my mish-mash of specialty displays with a single do-it-all stunner (with OLED!) feels awfully tempting. I’m going to be counting my pennies and crunching budgets until October Prime Day ends at midnight on the 8th—and you should too if you want the ultimate gaming monitor for damned near half its usual price.
My girlfriend is going to be so mad when I buy thisSamsung Odyssey G9 for $899 on Amazon
If you’re into the idea of upgrading your display—you know, the part of your PC you spend all day staring at—but don’t want to splurge on a $900 demigod, be sure to check out our roundup of the best October Prime Day monitor deals. There are a lot of fantastic displays going for just-as-fantastic prices out there right now. Read...Newslink ©2025 to PC World |  |
