      @@6eorg393 We want virtual monitors within one hardware monitor. Split the screen into different monitors like how we can currently do with applications. It is easier to snap applications into specific shapes if the application thinks it is going fullscreen. Additionally, if you have two different kinds of monitors then you may get different pixel densities that prevent things from ever looking right. Partitioning one big monitor into several virtual monitors wouldn't have this issue (I don't think).

      @bzomeful 3 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      I have the CRG9 (the predecessor to this monitors predecessor) and having lived with a 32:9 aspect ratio for awhile now…it definitely isn’t for everyone. Even something as basic as finding a decent desktop background is a chore. There are also other annoying things like how most in browser video players that don’t know how to handle it effectively (going full screen leaves a whole bunch of blank space on the sides but you can’t multitask in those blank spaces…I basically have to use theatre mode on TH-cam instead).
      You basically need a massive desk because of its foot print or you’ll need to invest a couple hundred dollars in a monitor stand that can support the weight. The monitor will be so heavy that most monitor stands with head tilt functions won’t be able to handle it.
      Having said that, I love the PBP mode. It basically allows you to treat the monitor like two separate 16:9 27 inch monitors.

    Did some quick math out of curiosity for the dimming zones. The stated screen pixel resolution is 5120 × 1440. The stated number of dimming zones is 2048. For my calculations I assumed the dimming zones are arranged in a rectangular grid, with no zone wasting any potential for pixel backlighting, and each zone serving as a backlight for the same number of pixels, and each zone serving a square shaped area...
    With those assumptions, each zone would serve 3600 pixels, which is a square of 60 pixels wide. The dimming zones would be arranged in a grid of ~85.333 × 24 zones.
    Obviously, you can't have factional dimming zones, so something in my assumptions must be wrong.
    I think it's likely that the dimming zones are arranged in a hexagonal grid, serving non-square regions of pixels, not serving the same number of pixels, or some combination of these.
    I think the zones boarder the edges of the screen are most likely to be serving a different number of pixels as those not boardering the edge. I also think the grid could be arranged like hexagons, which might be a more effective use of the comparatively limited number of zones. (Though, that would probably be a headache for the firmware designer to figure out.)
    I don't think the dimming zones would serve a non-square area, as in, having an pixel area with an aspect ratio other than 1:1. But it's still a possibility. There is plenty of president for non-square aspect ratios for display pixels in other image technologies, like components of image file formats. But I don't think it would look great for dimming zones. It would probably result in noticeable stripes of bright/dark areas, unless there use a light filtering layer that spreads the light in one direction more than another, by just the right amount.
    That's about it... I hope someone found it interesting or useful.
    Sorry, I don't feel like taking the time to figure out the exact dimensions of a hexagonal grid of dimming zones. Especially for something I'm very unlikely to buy.
    (Edit: I misheard the number of dimming zones as 1048 the first time. It's actually 2048. Everything past this point is the old version. I left it in for laughs. Not much is different though.)

    I have a 43" Samsung curved Monitor. I bought it ***exactly*** for allowing to display 2 Computers at once left side/ right side. When working home office I can run the office PC (connected by thin client) and still have one of my private PCs running to one of the other inputs. If you do not run Linux based systems, you can go for one set of peripherals when using free MS Garage development "Mouse without Borders" This works SOOOO great.
    I think that a lot people meanwhile do same or similar (maybe also because COVID lead to a different life). So while you say, that you could not imagine why one could do that - I tell you I strongly believe I am not the only one.
    In the evening I can enjoy the full screen. Only issue (if you want to call it like that is the poor refresh rate Unfortunately I think an Odyssey will not fit on my desk and I cannot buy a larger one, as it does not fit to the corner of the room, where it is placed.
    The other thing I am missing (but I do not know a brand/ monitor which has this feature) is a kind of preset. It would be cool, if I could set up the main setting (work) differently compared to the secondary setting (after work) ***and*** if I could switch this with a button easily (two or three buttons to directly switch between the setups - the setup should also store which input was used... my Samsung always starts to scan aaaaaalll the inputs and ends up to "find" the only active input for very last one...). Also I guess a monitor in 2021 should not only provide buttons, there should be also a Windows Application connected by USB to the PC to directly control all this. Dont get me wrong... it is good the buttons are there, but it would be a blast if I could control the monitor ***additionally*** with an Application. I do not trust those buttons to last through a normal Work/ Freetime day long enough (and I know some of the brands do have sth. alike...).

    I've got the G9 (Not the Neo reviewed here), and I have HDR turned off. It's pretty bad. The 10 dimming zones basically make it unusable, especially in games that take place in dark areas (Resident Evil Village was especially bad).
    If I didn't already have the original G9, I'm sure this offers a much better experience.
    However, I also only paid $1400 for the G9, whereas it looks like this thing is going for $2500. I don't think I'd be able to justify buying this for over $1000 more.

    I have the 48" OLED that LTT showcased in their video, "Every Other Monitor is DEAD to Me," and that costs $1,000 _less_ than this does. It's also far more versatile. Ultrawide content on the OLED basically converts it into an Ultrawide monitor, as the black bar sections turn _completely_ off. On the other hand, watching 16:9 content on an UltraUltrawide display is just going to give you a tiny square in the center (look at how narrow it is compared to the OLED!). If they were the same price, I'd have to think hard about which is better, but I honestly think I would still prefer my OLED to this. At $1,000 more, there's absolutely no contest imo.

      I just got my g9 neo. It's not a monitor for watching (or creating) content. It's a gaming monitor. It's built for gaming and it's brilliant at gaming.
      If you want the best picture then of course oled is better, if you want to create content then a 5k ips monitor is better. But if you want 80% of your field of view to be game? Yeah the r1000 32:9 g9 Odyssey is the absolute best.

    In my opinion this "review" got payed by Samsung. No crictism about the problems of the monitor.
    -awful hdr (dimm, washed out, wired colors) => look for hardwareunboxed and the_retrocaves videos
    -heavy color banding in dynamic mode
    -awful scanlines, especially in 240 hz mode
    -awful quality control (dust and other panel defects (damage of polarisation film and white spots) very likely).
    Had 3 G9 Neo all with dust inside panel (white test screen of Eizo test helps). One hat damage of polarisation film (rainbow effect) and white spot. Not physical panel damage. It was inside the panel. The dust problem is typical for Samsung products. Also for AUO but this another story. Had enough (arround 100) Samsung monitors over the last years and nearly all had dust inside panel. Only 2 without.
    -annoying coil whine (higher pitching noise @ 240 hz)
    -massive overshoot
    -adaptive sync flickering
    -poppig noises (to small ventialation holes + cheap plastic case) => the_retrocave makes a video about this
    Samsung G9 has the same problem, it has the same case ;)
    -sub pixel structure of Samsung SVA is crap, its leading to fuzzy text and contours
    Nobody should buy this monitor before the majority of failures mentioned above got fixed.
