The chin on this monitor is a little too large, but at least the rest of the bezels are normal in size.

Other areas like the front-facing RGB LED elements have also been refined. Obviously this monitor isn't curved, unlike the 1440p 240Hz variants, and that's a huge improvement in our book since we weren't huge fans of the 1000R curve for this format of display. The design for the Odyssey G7 S28 model is similar to the original Odyssey G7, except refined in several ways. Instead of arranging this review sample from Samsung, we bought this monitor from retail for testing. Given Samsung's recent history of quality control issues, we wanted to test this display to see if any of the same issues are present. This new 4K panel generation is the most affordable yet, and the Odyssey S28 is no exception, usually available at around $700, which is in the ballpark of its competitors and more affordable than the $900+ 4K monitors from years prior. The Odyssey G7 S28 is one of several new generation 4K 144Hz IPS displays for gaming, mirroring the specs of popular monitors such as the Gigabyte M28U, and the panel used here appears to be the same model from Innolux. It's a little disappointing how Samsung has ruined the naming scheme for the Odyssey G7, but with that cleared and out of the way, we don't want to get caught up in that too much. In contrast, the original G7 is a 1440p 240Hz 27" curved VA display, otherwise known as the LC27G75T, so clearly these are two very different products and you don't want to be confusing the C27G7 with the S28AG7 model. Samsung also advertises it as the "Odyssey G70A 28-inch" or the "Odyssey G7 UHD 28-inch" in various countries. It's called the LS28AG700 (usually with even more letters and numbers after that depending on your region), but for this review we'll be shortening it to the S28 model. The new Odyssey G7 brings to the table a 28-inch 4K 144Hz IPS panel aimed at gamers. Now you might be wondering, hang on a moment, didn't you already review the Odyssey G7 way back in 2020? And you'd be correct, but last year Samsung released a new Odyssey G7, which is a little bit confusing, however it's a very different monitor in terms of specifications. But since they're expected to be released globally, we should get an announcement from Samsung Malaysia soon.Today we're reviewing the Samsung Odyssey G7. The new monitors are currently not purchasable and the prices have not been announced yet. It has features like HDR400, Nvidia G-SYNC, AMD FreeSync Premium Pro, and more. Lastly, there's the Odyssey G7 - a 4K gaming monitor with a 144Hz refresh rate and 1ms response time.

It offers both Nvidia G-Sync and AMD Free Sync Premium while providing plenty of ergonomic adjustments like 90-degree pivoting. Then there's the Odyssey G5, which has a refresh rate of 165Hz, 1ms response time, and QHD resolution (2560x1440). It supports AMD FreeSync Premium and has an ergonomic stand with height adjustment.

The Odyssey G3 is a Full HD monitor with a 144Hz refresh rate and 1ms response time. Note: This new Odyssey G7 isn't the one from in June last year, which is a curved monitor. Moving on, let's check out some highlights for the three new monitors. On the other hand, the Odyssey G5 and G7 will only have one variant each of 27-inch and 28-inch.


The G3 will come in two sizes - 24-inch and 27-inch. In an official announcement, the company confirmed that the Odyssey G3, G5, and G7 would be available globally starting 21 June 2021.
