Samsung Electronics today announced the global launch of Odyssey Neo G7 (Model name: G70NC), the company's first flat Mini-LED model, adding a new form factor to the industry-leading Odyssey lineup. The new monitor delivers a large screen designed to give gamers a more comprehensive range of vision and details—inviting them to the worlds of their games with lifelike picture quality.

"The gaming monitor market is only going to get bigger, and gamers are now seeking more out of their monitors," said Hoon Chung, Executive Vice President of Visual Display Business at Samsung Electronics. "We are not just delivering better gaming experience—we are rebuilding new smart capabilities into our screens that give gamers an all-in-one place for technology and entertainment. Our innovations are enabling gamers everywhere to stay absorbed in their games with visual performance that enhances the intense emotional experiences."




The Samsung Odyssey Neo G7 is designed to deliver lifelike picture quality, a customizable high-performance viewing environment and personalized features for optimal gaming and entertainment.

Gaming Monitor Big Enough for Any Game and Platform
The large 43" screen delivers 4K resolution (3,840 x 2,160) with VESA Display HDR 600 and HDR 10+ certification for advanced picture quality showcasing the best graphics of today. The Odyssey Neo G7 brings Samsung's Quantum Matrix Technology to the fore, using Quantum Mini LEDs, which enable ultra-fine and precise control of the densely packed LEDs. As a result, users can see richer blacks, more expansive color expression and more detail, even in shadowy gaming environments.

Additionally, the Matte Display reduces light reflection on the screen, minimizing distractions during the most intense gaming sessions and letting the large screen deliver details while keeping the player focused on the game and the stunning visual performance.

The Odyssey Neo G7 is a great monitor for any gaming platform—using DisplayPort or HDMI connection to hook it up to the users' Gaming rig or switch to HDMI 2.1 to play on their latest game console. Another option is to play a mobile game on a larger 43" screen through the built-in WIFI/Bluetooth or just connect a controller to enjoy a game in the cloud without even having a console.

Performance To Take Gaming to the Next Level
A 144 Hz refresh rate and 1 ms (MPRT) response time allow a swift, smooth response and enable precise mouse movements. Even during the most intense moments, the Odyssey Neo G7 keeps extremely smooth and fast action gameplay and reduces stuttering, input latency and screen tearing through AMD FreeSync Premium Pro support.

Users increasingly expect personalized and customizable gaming experiences. The Odyssey Neo G7 provides a range of innovative features that let users adjust screen size, position and even ratio for an optimal gaming setup. Flex Move Screen allows users to adjust the screen size between 43- and 20-inches to match their preferred size based on the game they play and even change the screen position. So, users can find the perfect way to perform at their best in any game.

To personalize their performance, users can use Samsung Game Bar, a powerful tool enabling users to quickly view and change important settings without ever needing to leave the game screen. Players can see and change FPS (Frames Per Second), aspect ratio, high dynamic range (HDR) and variable refresh rate (VRR) or adjust settings such as screen ratio, response time and Game Picture mode. Game Bar puts the player in control without missing any of the action.

Smart Features for Personalized Experiences
The Odyssey Neo G7 is equipped with smart features to cater to users' wide variety of needs, with customizable experiences through Samsung Smart Hub and Samsung Gaming Hub.

Samsung Gaming Hub is an all-in-one game streaming discovery platform that allows instant access to games from partners such as Xbox and NVIDIA GeForce NOW, with no downloads or storage space requirements. It is the ultimate tool to enable users the freedom to explore every corner of the gaming world without limitations.

In addition, users can also get the smart TV experience with apps from partners like Prime Video, Netflix and YouTube through Samsung Smart Hub to enjoy various over-the-top (OTT) content using an Internet connection without even booting up their PC or connecting to other devices.

The Odyssey Neo G7 will be available globally from Q1 2023, with launch schedules varying by region.

guys 43" is completely doable as a desktop monitor, but its the max, i think somewhere around 38" should be ideal. 32" is great too ofc, there is the innocn 1152 miniled ips

mini LED sucks anyway :roll: :roll:
you either have a shitty oled or not even that just hating on things for fun

Not mentioned, so probably the bare minimum (~500).

Fwiw it's VA panel and it's listed as a curved monitor. Although it looks flat and it's not really a monitor if it's Tizen-powered.

Not really, because tons of zones needs perfect control which takes time to proces = Input lag.

This is why LCD TVs with FALD/MiniLED backlighting have noticable worse image quality in game mode compard to OLED. Looser control of backlight because input lag would be horrible with same settings as movies/regular watching. Most ofthen they just make bigger zones, instead of 100s or even 1000+ they then have 8-16-32 zones instead, IN GAME MODE on TVs, that is. The same must be true for PC monitors with FALD/MiniLED.

VESA 600, which can be anything from 8, 32 or more. Don't expect anything amazing. Also, it's VA so unless it's top of the class VA you're going to have black smearing.

How? Ergonomy says you shouldn't look up to upper part of your monitor, it's bad for your neck. And screen height of 43" is approx. 54 cm, that's way larger than common large monitor - 32", which has screen height of 40 cm.

So for my height (182 cm) at low desk height of 70 cm there is only 55 cm to sitting eye level (125 cm) and recommended height of the top of monitor - so 43" monitor would have to literraly lie on the desk, and it would still be too high.

I find my 24 inch big already, let alone 43. 27 would be my max at an arms length away.

I'm curious to see how this monitor will hold up to Samsung's own 43qn90b TV, which is probably better priced and brighter..
Here in Brazil this tv was very successful, especially during the black friday season, where it was for a fraction of the price of the 4k/120~144hz monitors, but with much better image quality, the only negative point is the size..

This will probably be my next monitor if the price isn’t too high. I game on a 43” 4k Smart TV now. But its only 60Hz with no adaptive sync. Gaming on a big 16:9 monitor makes it hard to ever go back to small, slit (16:10) monitors. Our eyes see in both the horizontal and vertical. As long as your computer desk is deep enough (mine is over 40” deep) then the experience is super emmersive.

I just wish it had DP2.1 but there seems to be no drive to implement the standard.

Nothing is too big, it depends on the distance you're sitting at. Just sayin'.
That said, a typical desk is not deep enough to give you a comfortable distance from a 43" monitor. You can still mount this on a wall or install it on a stand.

Distance does't help much with height of upper part of monitor. Unless you put it waaaay back. :)

OK, of you only game on this monitor you rarely read or look at upper part for prolonged time, but that's not a regular desktop monitor use then.

What I don't understand with monitor manufacturers is why tf they don't put an eARC socket on their products. Dolby Atmos soundbars are very widespread these days. It'd be nice to be able to plug one in and turn on passthrough. Because if you have a separate cable from the GPU going into an atmos soundbar, Windows sees the soundbar as a 2nd monitor. But if you run the cable from the GPU to the monitor then use a 2nd HDMI from the monitor's eARC (just like u would with a TV), there is no 2nd 'phantom' monitor. Coz lets face, If you're gaming on a setup with a 4K high Hz monitor + a top of the line gaming rig, you're not gonna want to use crappy 20w built-in speakers to ruin the immersion. It's better with a top notch headset or an atmos soundbar.

I’m guessing eARC soundbars are for ‘TVs’ and USB soundbars are for ‘monitors’. A dubious distinction for sure. At least computers have plenty of USB ports and an architecture to run USB devices. TVs don’t have that kind of USB functionality.
