About this product
The Samsung Odyssey OLED G8 (S34BG850SN) is identical to the previous S34BG850S model: a 34-inch curved ultrawide OLED gaming monitor with 3440x1440 resolution, 175Hz refresh rate, and Adaptive-Sync. It features DisplayPort, Mini DisplayPort, and USB-C inputs, with a tiltable stand. The monitor has a 21:9 aspect ratio and Energy Star 5 Stars rating. Priced at $549.99, it offers a premium OLED experience at a competitive price point for gamers seeking immersive visuals.
Our take
I'm reviewing this Samsung Odyssey OLED G8, and it's essentially the same great monitor as the S34BG850S. The OLED panel delivers breathtaking colors and perfect blacks—HDR content is a treat. The 175Hz refresh keeps gameplay silky smooth. Build quality is good, though the stand only tilts. The menu system is a bit clunky, and the Mini DisplayPort is an odd choice. For $550, it's a solid value for an OLED ultrawide, but I'd prefer a more adjustable stand. Overall, a fantastic gaming monitor if you're okay with its quirks.
