Samsung announced its 57-inch Odyssey Neo G9 flagship monitor at Gamescom 2023. This new curved gaming monitor features a massive 57-inch ultra-wide panel equivalent to having two 4K displays.

The Odyssey Neo G9 57″ or G95NC is equipped with a VA type LCD panel with a resolution of 7680 x 2160 and a curvature of 1000R. This 32:9 aspect ratio display is equivalent to having two 16:9 3840 x 2160 panels The 57-inch size is a factor in the ultra-wide aspect ratio and obviously not comparable to displays with other aspect ratios.

What’s more interesting is that the monitor supports this huge resolution with an equally incredible 240Hz refresh rate. This is about four billion pixels that are updated every second. To power this insane combination of resolution and refresh rate, the G95NC features a combination of DisplayPort 2.1 and HDMI 2.1. Samsung doesn’t specify the exact bandwidth of these connectors, but that doesn’t really matter as there isn’t yet a connector that natively supports so much data transfer (over 100Gbps) without Display Stream Compression, that the monitor supports.

While the G95NC doesn’t have a more modern OLED panel, it features Samsung’s Quantum Matrix technology with mini-LED backlighting, 2392 local dimming zones, and VESA DisplayHDR 1000 certification. The panel is also rated with a response time of 1 ms (GTG) and has a matte finish.

The Samsung Odyssey Neo G9 57″ will be available in the US starting in October for $2500.
