Top notch quality and extremely informative - excellent video - great music - thank you very much for this.
I bought 3 Neo G8's 😎👍 Best monitor ever 👌
agreed!😄
Best unboxing of this monitor on the internet!!
Best comment ever👍🏻
best monitor ever in my life. BEST SAMSUNG
Nice music. Chill weekend afternoon music 😀
Thanks bro,helped me a lot
Great video! Ive done hours of research and this is by far the best one ive seen. I just have one question, would i be able to use a bolted stand or wall stand for the monitor? 😊
The monitor supports a VESA mount. Not sure if that's what you mean, but any wall mount that is VESA should work. Alternatively you can use one of those mounting arms. That's what I'm maybe planning on doing. My desk is only 60cm deep, which is normally enough but the legs of this monitor are so large I'm worried it will take up too much space on my desk and push my mouse and keyboard back. That said, make sure to get a very good mount because the screen is pretty heavy and also curved, the curve makes the weight distrubition weird.
I would get a mount that supports at least 20kg so you're certain it won't ever fail on you. Also one that has no plastic hinges or pieces. I'm waiting for mine to arrive, but when it does I will check if it takes up too much space and buy an arm if I need too.
Man I can't wait for mine to be arrive.
Awesome video. What are you using for speakers on this beast? My monitor should be arriving on Christmas Eve
Me using audioengine a2+
How's the matte coating in games and productivity? Do you find it too grainy, not sharp, etc? Nice video btw! :)
Thank you!, the coating is doing ok, though i have light from tv behind me but it doesnt bother me that much. picture still sharp, bright and full of detail.
great video man!! Been thinking about getting this monitor, but on a other note what arm mount are you using?
Thank you😀 I’m using Ergosmith ARM8 - Single Monitor Arm / Desk Computer Stand Mount with 2 USB 3.0 VESA 13”-34” 8kg
@@gapanich2041 Damn bro there is no way I'm trusting an 8kg arm to hold a screen that is 8kg. I'm looking for one that can hold at least 15/20kg so I can be sure that it will never fail on me.
My arrives in 3 days.. so happy. Brighter then OLED and no Burn in. Also a good deal for 750 € in my Country.
This can't be real.... This monitor is amazing !
***** Here is all my favorite settings list of both SDR and HDR *****
I tell you guys this Samsung Odyssey Neo G8 is very good monitor.
But...
You have to know how to work the options on the monitor itself to be able to get these visuals!
But if you got the G7 Neo model then just try see if that good for you...
This is very important settings with " Saturation " this give more color for to both SDR and HDR.
Well, best settings is Saturation with 58 or 60 or 70.
I use 70 for both SDR and HDR.
Depending on which movies or games to run.
See and test what is fit well best.
Also important that " Local Dimming " to High or Auto.
Sometimes better use with High and sometimes better use Auto, depend on.
But you need use both High and Auto, However use often with High.
If you like can use also with Low, but i never use Low.
"Local Dimming" is important for both SDR and HDR.
This thing has do with Mini-LED.
You can change " Contrast Enhancer " On or Off, if you like it.
" Black Equalizer " 13 is great but you can change from 9 to 16 or up to 20 if you like it.
9 to 16 is great
" Contrast " with 75 and 80, 90 and 100 fine.
You can change Gamma Mode 1 or 2 or 3.
I use 1 and 2.
Even you can change " Color Tone "
I use Normal and Warm 1 and Natural.
" Adaptive-Sync " is On this is good thing so you can use with G-Sync Compatible to enable if you wanna it.
But make sure turn off V-Sync in game.
If off G-Sync, you can use V-Sync.
I don't use G-Sync due they are not support to all games also i don't need that.
You can have " Adaptive-Sync " on and without use G-Sync and just enable V-Sync.
If you turn off " Adaptive-Sync " You can use with " Response Time " and " Low Input Lag ".
I don't use " Low Input Lag " Just keep on " Adaptive-Sync ".
If you turn on " Adaptive-Sync " will work run with G-Sync or FreeSync.
HDMI or DisplayPort both work to run with G-Sync or FreeSync.
My " VRR Control " is On.
Well better use with HDMI than DP.
HDMI can get 12-bit color, with a lot color than 10-bit.
But make sure set on output color depth 12-bit SDR in PC.
This monitor model HDMI 2.1 get only 120Hz max at 4K.
If guys wanna run with DisplayPort at 240 Hz but get only 10-bit color.
This monitor support 12 bit color, That Amazing...
If you run HDMI on PC and don't forget turn off HDMI audio in Nvidia Control Panel or in Sound Control Panel, If you wanna use from motherboard audio ports or PC sound card.
If you have problem monitor like when is flickering or glitching or other just turn off power in OSD buttons then turn on power.
If this not help then just restart PC in Windows.
Then is all good again.
I think DP is better than HDMI for that Samsung Neo Odyssey G8.
Almost zero issues for flickering or nothing at all.
I think HDMI got more issue.
This is just small problem, not big deal.
I did try only with PC Windows DP & HDMI.
I don't know about with Consoles at HDMI if have problem with flickering or other.
I did read from someone comment and he said about Scanlines problem..
===========================================================================
What i learned watching hours of reviews
240HZ = GAMING ONLY (Scanlines are not noticeable while gaming )
120HZ = OFFICE WORK / VIDEO (Eliminates scanlines)
*Get used to scaling your MONTIOR depending on the type of work you are doing.
*SWITCH TO 240hz while GAMING
* SWITCH TO 120hz while doing OFFICE WORK
===========================================================================
You know that settings on SDR will have different settings save from HDR on, If you run HDR will have other settings save.
So you can have two options SDR and HDR settings for saves. Great right?

Make sure change " OnScreen Display " > " Display Time " to 200 sec
You should know they all my settings Picture Mode like Custom, FPS,
RTS and ect ect mean just like 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7.

Nice job
Do you know how to make dynamic resolution an option?
No, sorry
hahah bro I see your comment under every video about the screen. Seems like you're just as obsessive about watching videos about stuff you buy or are waiting for to be delived as I am. I commented before that there is no way that you'd ever need 70 saturation on any screen (unless it's broken) and you replied saying you were using 50/58 now :)
If anyone is having issues where their desktop looks unsaturated and ugly, that's because you have HDR turned on and windows does not have proper hdr for the desktop etc. But if you actually watch a HDR or play a HDR game, (or connect your ps5 and try hdr on that) you will see that HDR works as it should and the colors are properly saturated.
When I connect my laptop to my TV which has incredible HDR, and turn on HDR the desktop looks horrifically ugly, unsaturated etc. But when I open my browser and check a HDR video through my laptop on my TV it looks absolutely stunning as it should. This is a winddows issue not an issue with the screen.
Hello. Did you try to use g sync? Is it working properly? I am thinking to buy it but not sure I can use g sync
Thanks man👍👍👍
My neo g7 odyssey doesn't have as much backlight glow as yours but maybe it's the camera?
Yes, my camera picking up too much light, i don't see backlight glow or leak with my eyes 👍
@@gapanich2041 cool beans
Sweet bro
What HDR mode do you think looks best for Far Cry 5 on this monitor? They gave you two options I think, HDR PQ and scRGB?
scrgb is better
how did you mount it to the wall which screws did you use to screw the adapter in and the vesa mount
Is there a screen protector on the screen? It looks like it is but I don’t want mess up the screen if there isn’t.
P.s. this video has made me want to build a pc. I recently started playing with mouse and keyboard on ps5 (Warzone). But now I'm realing how few games support it and I don't want to go back to controller lol. So I looked up the price of a 4090. Figured I might build a nice PC to go with my nice new monitor, future proof it a little so I can run games max/high graphics @1440p for a while. I mean my laptop with a 4060 was 1100 so I figured a 4090 would be 500/600 ... it's 2100/2500 euro. What the actual FK. A 4070 TI is 900/1100. Holy fk man. And these cards are barely better than a 3000 card. But there is no way I'm buying a 3000 because those don't have DLSS + frame gen. My 4060 laptop with a I7 12700h runs robocop rogue city max graphics and max ray tracing @ 1080p around 90/100fps purely because of frame generation and dlss. Even though it sucks that it's not actually the card's performance and AI trickery, I still woudln't want to give that up since I imagine most if not all new games will have frame gen going forward.\
anyway, guess I'm sticking to mouse and keyboard for now
Hey bro, can you show me the screws you used to vesa mount it? I cant seem to use the screws I previously had with my old monitor which was also vesa 100x 100
Thanks in advance
I use the screws from the stand that come with g8
Where did you purchase you monitor mount?
Samsung still dealing with problems from previous generations, but it doesn't matter because people will consume product and then get excited for next product. A sucker born every minute.
lol, true that😆
Have you noticed any problem with G-Synce ?
3:38 PLEASE TELL ME WHAT THAT IS! The bottom right of the screen, the fire thing. I'd love to have it :(
Can you link the VESA mount or tell me what brand you used?
I’m using the new brand called ergosmith. But i think now they only sell in Thailand. m.facebook.com/ergosmith.co?eav=AfZ9pMDo4afKfQtzvCNWTFJozjK-SR-2sC_tP3U_Y_arxffLl1DYTRDHgSOkRZlCiJM&paipv=0&_rdr
Why was dynamic resolution grayed out and how to make it and option.
1:43 I need this piece only.. I'm mounting the monitor on a stand but lost this piece.. where can I get it separately?
Anyone know does it have a smart TV function as its main interface? ie access youtube etc Thank you
How long is the provided displayport cable?

Do you got the scanline issue a lot people talking about?
Fortunately my unit come with the new firmware 1003.0 in general use i don't see any scanlines BUT in certain blue color there are still some scanlines i can notice like, Battle.net icon, steam icon, Discord icon in my desktop(i have to put my head very close to the screen to see it). Watching movies and gaming i don't have any issue with scanlines.

How do I update the monitor
Quick question if you turn adaptive sync off and whatever is grayed will it still be on
Can a 3090ti do 4k 240hz or only 144?
Yes, 3090ti can 4k @240hz via display port 1.4
@@gapanich2041 thanks i was debating whether or not to wait for the 4th GPUs if 3090ti cant do 4k 240 hz
Do you have a link to that monitor arm? Can't find it anywhere!
I just returned mine , not worth it at that price . The stand is the worst ever, you need to disable free sync if you have an nvidia card when enabling 240 hz, I did not realize that and kept getting blank screens flickering on and off. My set had other little problems that I just packed the monitor and sent it back. I did not feel it.. due to cost.
sorry to hear that, i feel you👍. The price is high indeed. and maybe it's not suitable for every pc.
Using in 240 hz scanlines pretty bad, paying that much for this monitor is unacceptable issue.
@@philipli1992 that’s too bad🙁. I’m using 240hz refresh rate but i don’t have any issue. What is your monitor’s firmware version?
