Today Amazon has dropped the price of the 49″ Samsung Odyssey Neo G9 gaming monitor by $850. It’s currently $1449.99 (it normally retails for $2300). This is the lowest price we’ve seen all year and is only $50 more than the all-time price low we saw during Black Friday.

Samsung Odyssey Neo G9 49″ Mini LED Gaming Monitor: One of the Best Gaming Monitors Around

So what makes this monitor worth the price? The main thing is the Mini LED display. Samsung’s highest end “Odyssey” series gaming monitor is also Samsung’s only monitor equipped with a Mini LED backlight combined with a quantum dot (QLED) panel. You’ll find Mini LED backlights only in the higher end 4K TVs as well as the newest Apple iPad Pro 12.9″ XDR display, the priciest iPad on the market.

The Samsung Neo G9 isn’t a one trick pony, and all the other specs live up to the hype of a top-end gaming monitor. This truly massive 49″ curved panel monitor boasts a pixel dense 5,120×1440 resolution. That curve, by the way, is pretty extreme (1000R), to the extent that it almost hugs you as you play games. It offers a 1ms response time and a 240Hz refresh rate, which means virtually no input lag or motion blurring. It is HDR2000 certified, meaning it is possible of displaying a searing peak brightness of 2000nits. Plus, it offers G-Sync and FreeSync Premium Pro support. And it has two HDMI 2.1 ports.

Obviously the Samsung Odyssey Neo G9 isn’t a monitor for everyone. You need a rather generous gaming budget if you want to add this to your rig. The cost keeps many us gamers at bay, but certainly the barrier to entry has been signficantly lowered with this deal today.
