Pros & Cons
Pros
- Stunning Visual Performance: The 4K Quantum Mini-LED display provides vibrant colors, high brightness, and deep blacks that many reviewers compare favorably to OLED technology, making it excellent for HDR content.
- Excellent Gaming Features: With a 144Hz refresh rate, 1ms response time, and HDMI 2.1 support, it delivers a smooth and immersive experience for both high-end PC rigs and next-gen consoles like the PS5 and Xbox Series X.
- Versatile Hybrid Functionality: It successfully bridges the gap between a high-end gaming monitor and a Smart TV, featuring built-in streaming apps, decent integrated speakers, and a convenient remote control for media consumption.
Cons
- Frustrating Software Interface: The Tizen OS is frequently described as slow, laggy, and overly complex, with users particularly annoyed by the lack of a dedicated input-switching button on the remote.
- Persistent Connectivity Bugs: Users report significant issues with the monitor failing to wake from sleep, losing signals on DisplayPort, and experiencing random flickering or artifacts that often require a hard reset.
- Noticeable Motion Artifacts: As a VA panel, it suffers from ghosting and black smearing during fast-paced scenes or when scrolling through text, and the viewing angles can cause color shifting at the edges of the large screen.

Can be a great monitor
Verified purchase Verified purchase: This reviewer bought the product.BMan July 1, 2023Review source: BestbuyThis monitor is a difficult one to review so I will try to keep it short. There are things I love about this monitor and things that aggravate me. First off, this monitor is not at all calibrated out of the box. In fact, the picture looks absolutely horrible when you first use it connected to a computer. I had to adjust almost every setting on the monitor before I got an image I was happy with. There are several YouTube videos that can help you with this. But once I made the adjustments it became one of the best-looking monitors I have ever used, and I am very happy with the image. However, the main issue I have, which is the reason I took off one star, is that this monitor has issues waking up while connected over DisplayPort. I have researched this issue and tried different things but I still have issues waking up the monitor when the computer puts it to sleep. The monitor wakes up with the PC but fails to re-connect and says it cannot find a signal on the DisplayPort. The only way to reconnect it is to either re-plug it in or hold down the monitors power button to reboot the monitor. The best option I have found so far is to turn off the monitor when you are done using the computer, but I often forget since I am used to just letting the computer sleep the monitor. The last issue I have had with this monitor is that it does not auto-switch well between video sources. I use this monitor with my desktop and work laptop. All prior monitors I have used would quickly auto switch between sources when I would project each computer to use and unuse the monitor. This monitor goes into a timeout mode for 60 seconds when it loses signal with the current input and will not auto switch to another input, so you have to manually open up the monitors menu and switch it to the other input. Other than these two aggravating connection issues the monitor is fantastic once you adjust its settings to your liking.

Good performance, pointless smart features
Verified purchase Verified purchase: This reviewer bought the product.CHKn June 20, 2023Review source: BestbuyIf you are looking for a large monitor primarily for playing games, or watching videos/movies, Netflix, etc. this might be a good value option depending on your needs. I got this on sale for $700 and for that price I feel like a got a pretty good bang for the buck. However, if you are planning to use this monitor for productivity like a work from home job it may not work out as well.
I had been looking for a monitor with decent, or good HDR either 1440p or 4k and this checked enough of the boxes that I decided to try it. I personally was looking for something around 32″, but I got used to the 43″ after about a week and now it feels really nice having the extra display real estate. The monitor can automatically resize windows to fit into multiple layouts allowing you to have a browser window open in a narrow space on the side of the monitor while you have a game or movie in a larger window on the other side allowing multi-tasking. You would think this multi tasking ability would carry over to be useful as a productivity monitor and maybe others would have a different experience, but I sometimes have trouble seeing the mouse cursor against light backgrounds and losing it on the screen with white backgrounds. There is also some ghosting when scrolling through text on a white background although it’s not too bad to my eyes. This may not be an issue for others, but I could see it causing some headaches. I personally don’t use it for this often, so it’s a drawback I’m okay with living with.
On the subject of picture quality it really does look great in my opinion. HDR is plenty bright for me at 600nits and due to the ~360 local dimming zones it can produce deep blacks and bright whites on screen at the same time. However, keep in mind this is a 43″ monitor and 360 zones isn’t enough for great contrast in all content types just good. The smaller, curved variant of this same model the Odyssey Neo G7 32″ (MSRP $1299) has around 1000 dimming zones on a smaller display which is going to give a better experience and might be worth considering on sale. Colors on this monitor are nice and vibrant and after some tinkering with settings have gotten a pretty nice looking picture that works for nearly all content it displays. If you are seriously considering this monitor it wouldn’t be a bad idea to look at some examples on Youtube.
A last point that needs to be mentioned is the smart functions and how this affects the user experience. A typical PC monitor is just going to display what’s coming from your PC, but this one behaves more like a smart TV and in my experience that is not necesarrily a good thing which I find to also be the case here. The display likes going back to the “home” screen when switching inputs and the controls, while faster than what I have on my home TVs, are still laggy and slow, and to be honest when I’m using this for a PC it’s just much faster and easier to go to the Netflix website rather than try to navigate the Samsung menus. In general, I think having smart functionality on a monitor is just a waste and I have never had a smart display at any price point that had controls even as responsive as a cheap roku box. I actually feel like not having this at all and slightly improving the picture with the money they spent implementing this would have been a better investment. However, this did result in the inclusion of a remote to control the volume, adjust settings, etc and this is much better to me than using the buttons on the bottom like a normal monitor. The other thing you get from this is built in speakers that are actually pretty decent. If you have a nice soundbar or PC speakers already this is probably pointless for you, but this basically replaced my speaker setup and also allows this monitor to be used as a nice mid size TV, so I can see this continuing to get use after I switch to a different monitor as a TV in another room.
So overall I would recommend this to anyone looking to upgrade from a typical SDR monitor that either wants a bigger size, 4k, or maybe to use with a console as well. Since it comes with HDMI 2.1 it can be used with current gen consoles, PC, or for streaming video making it very versatile with good refresh rate and picture. If you can get it on sale (which seems to happen frequently with Samsung) it is good value at $700 for the quality you get.

One of the best Gaming/movie etc monitors availabl
Verified purchase Verified purchase: This reviewer bought the product.Branden June 10, 2023Review source: BestbuyEcellent monitor that doubles like a smart TV. Just be sure to have a strong enough graphics card to power this beast!
Visuals are great, with nice black levels. Honestly, your better off with mini LED monitors like this versus an OLED panel as the burn in risk despite modern panel tech isnt worth it. Already experienced burn in with an LG set, pretty frustrating.

Great monitor on sale
Sparkly May 30, 2023Review source: BestbuyFor the price I got it at, which was 699, this monitor was a steal for what you get. The size combined with the Mini-LED display is great. The only thing I will say as a negative is the ghosting can sometimes be noticeable but not usually when gaming. Wait for a sale for sure.
