SAMSUNG Odyssey G3 Series 27-Inch FHD 1080p Gaming Monitor, 144Hz, 1ms, 3-Sided Border-Less, VESA Compatible, Height Adjustable Stand, FreeSync Premium (LF27G35TFBNXZA)

Dead pixels

I purchased this item for my son,. Him wanting a bigger screen for gaming. The picture quality is amazing. Assembly very simple. Any buy this item, to upgrade to a bigger screen for gaming only. There’s no need to buy a new cable adapter. Because, the adapter you used for your old screen fits. He’s exstrmly statfied with this monitor.

I use this as my second monitor and it works great! Nice picture!

Brightness was fine and build quality seemed ok but I hardly used it. The ghosting was terrible. Especially on darker screens the ghosting was incredibly bad.

Good for first monitor gaming buyers for the price and quality.

This is a pretty good monitor, but as with any monitor with a VA panel, expect some pretty significant black smearing, to counter this i turned it to the fps setting in the monitor’s menu. this chopped black smearing in half, possibly more. overall buy this if you’re on a budget or need a second monitor

Has broken multiple times in the around year i have owned it, 120-144hz no longer works and spent 3 hours trying to fix it

I purchased two of these monitors for my new PC build. Initially they were really good, but the image quality was kinda meh. Now, 2 weeks later my warranty wears off and 2 days ago one of my screens went randomly blank. Messed with NVIDIA options and when I change the refresh rate to 60hz, it works. So basically it stopped supporting 144hz or any hz over 60. On top of this, there is screen tearing even when 60hz is set. Cherry on top is that Samsungs website is hell and getting support is impossible. Never buying Samsung monitors ever again.

This is a normal sized monitor with fast frame rate and a highly adjustable stand. The stand is not tool free to set up (6 screws are included, screwdriver required). It is pretty sophisticated with many adjustable angles. It’ll take up quite a bit more desk space due to needing to accommodate up to 30 degrees of rotation while maintaining stability. Tilting forward and backward and elevating it up and down are quite simple – simply push and it will stay at its new position. There is enough resistance to let you put a webcam and other light objects on top. Rolling it like a steering wheel, the monitor will rotate 90 degrees to each side. There are notches in the center position to ensure that the monitor is level when you want it to be. If you frequently move the left/right sides forward and backwards, the monitor offers a way to do it without having to lift the monitor or scrape the desk. Using with a laptop as a 2nd display, the display has to be manually configured to 144hz. Both HDMI and Displayport work fine. Viewing things at 144hz, I got a bit of motion sickness initially, which means it is working. The matte screen performs well against reflections. Nothing particularly wrong with the colors. I didn’t spot any dead pixels. I measured 28W of power consumption at max brightness – normal power use for a monitor of this size. The L plug may work well or poorly depending on where you plug it in. I hope that in the future more lower power devices such as monitors are powered by smaller and more space efficient type C. 1080p is a bit low for a 27” screen but also absolutely good enough for enjoying entertainment, especially if you sit a little bit further away. It leaves something to be desired in terms of screen real estate for productivity. For most people, resolution should be more important than framerate. But high framerate has a benefit even if you aren’t a playing competitive games – aside from feeling ever so smoother, if you record the screen this will also allow you to see smoother slow motion replays. For people who have eyesight problems, higher framerates may also offer an alternative way to increase enjoyment. This monitor has a white power indicator LED light on the right side. I like that you don’t see it when you are directly in front of the monitor. Some other monitors put the LED in front which is annoying for using the monitor. The menu is not difficult to navigate but you will likely be using the buttons by touch as the buttons are behind the monitor. There is a harmless ~9mm of bezel. At $269.99, price is about normal for a monitor of this feature set. If you’re looking at 144hz then frame rate is obviously important to you, and this monitor works well delivering high frame rates.

If you’re on the search for a monitor with lots of picture settings and customization; look elsewhere. Besides that it’s a great flat monitor with the option to turn vertical and lower or raise it(also tilting).
