Samsung’s range of PC monitors is growing. Last year there are plenty models at all prices, but above all the Neo G9. An extremely large PC display (49 inches, 32: 9), with a high definition of 5120 x 1440 pixels. It has features tailored for gaming, and this year… Samsung introduced its Mini LED technology.

In 2022, Samsung announces the Odyssey Neo G8. It’s a gaming monitor… from 32 inch with the same 1000R curvature.

32 inches, 4K, 240 Hz …

As a reminder, we also find the term “Neo” in Samsung Neo QLED TVs, this is Quantum Mini LED technology. In addition to a peak brightness of 2000 nits – that’s a huge value – Samsung uses several hundred backlight areas to optimize the contrast ratio.

Aside from the size difference, the Odyssey Neo G8 has the same design as the G9 ,. A smaller screen but greater definition: the QHD Plus definition goes to 4K. Samsung claims that this is the first 4K monitor to support a refresh rate of 240Hz and a response time of 1ms. It will take a very solid graphics card to get 240 frames per second in 4K. Nvidia has planned some announcements at CES 2022

It also supports le HDR 10+, and keep the same technical table for the rest: Nvidia G-Sync, AMD FreeSync Premium Pro, VRR, 240 Hz, 1 ms… with obviously two HDMI 2.1 ports to have enough bandwidth. The Odyssey Neo G8 also has a DisplayPort 1.4 port with adaptive sync, as well as a headphone jack and two USB 3.0 ports.
