What’s Happening
Real talk: One of the biggest upgrades you can make to a PC setup in my eyes is to switch to an OLED monitor for a much sharper viewing experience.
A lot of it is down to the deeper blacks, stronger contrast and fire colours you can get from modern panels. It is more of a premium upgrade if you’ve got the cash and the PC needed to drive a high-res and high refresh rate screen, but definitely worth it as someone who made the switch to a 32-inch 4K 240Hz option just like this Samsung Odyssey OLED G8. (shocking, we know)
T Home Deals Save $450 on this sublime 32-inch 4K 240Hz Samsung QD-OLED monitor in the Amazon Spring Sale An ultra premium monitor with a hefty discount Deals by Reece Bithrey Contributor One of the biggest upgrades you can make to a PC setup in my eyes is to switch to an OLED monitor for a much sharper viewing experience.
The Details
This screen is down to $849 from Amazon USA in the Spring Sale, marking out a hefty $450 discount on its previous high price - it has been closer to $900 and this exact price in more recent weeks, though. Samsung Odyssey OLED G8 (32-inch, 4K, 240Hz, QD-OLED) Now $849.
- See at Amazon USA The star of the show with this screen is undoubtedly its QD-OLED panel, providing the classic, inky blacks and immense contrast and dynamic range we’ve come to expect from OLED screens across a larger 32-inch panel. For good measure, it has a 4K resolution for brilliant detail, plus a 240Hz refresh rate for silky smooth motion.
Why This Matters
All of this combines to make it a dead cert for both fast-paced shooters where you’ll be able to take advantage of that refresh rate, plus in more cinematic titles with a little more responsiveness when warranted. Take it from me as someone who moved to a Philips model with a similar panel to this Samsung choice around 18 months ago - it’s a gorgeous screen with fire clarity and lovely depth. Peak SDR brightness is only rated at 260 nits, as is typical for this panel type, although in HDR content, it should be able to go much higher for impactful highlights.
Gaming fans have strong opinions about moves like this, and for good reason.
The Bottom Line
Peak SDR brightness is only rated at 260 nits, as is typical for this panel type, although in HDR content, it should be able to go much higher for impactful highlights.
