About this product
The Samsung Odyssey G3 27-inch gaming monitor features a VA panel with 180Hz refresh rate and 1ms response time. It offers a 1920x1080 resolution, 3000:1 contrast ratio for deep blacks, and Adaptive-Sync with FreeSync support. Video inputs include HDMI 2.0 and DisplayPort. The monitor has a headphone jack and brightness of 250 cd/m². It is part of the Odyssey G3 series, ideal for budget gaming.
Our take
The Odyssey G3 is a budget-friendly gaming monitor that doesn't cut corners on speed. The 180Hz refresh rate is remarkably smooth for the price, and the VA panel delivers excellent contrast with deep blacks—great for dark scenes. FreeSync works well with AMD cards. The downside is the low 250 cd/m² brightness; it's fine indoors but struggles in bright rooms. Also, 1080p on 27-inch could be sharper. But if you want high refresh on a budget, this is a strong contender.
