Samsung Odyssey G65B 32" Black 2022

The G75T delivers stunning color and 240Hz smoothness in a deeply immersive curved package. Quality control hiccups and the missing G-Sync seal keep it from being a no-brainer. At a sale price under $600 it's a fantastic buy; at full freight, you're better off eyeing an OLED.

Samsung crammed a lot into the G75T: a 32-inch 1440p VA panel with a deep 1000R curve, 240Hz refresh, and a claimed 1ms response time. On paper, it's a sweet spot for gamers who want speed and immersion without stepping up to 4K. The connectivity is best-in-class, with HDMI 2.1, DisplayPort 1.4, and not one but two USB-C ports, plus built-in speakers and a headphone jack.

But the numbers only tell half the story. Our user sentiment data lands at a middling 46th percentile, and for good reason. A chunk of owners ran into flickering units, assembly headaches, or monitors that refused to power on. When it works, it works beautifully, but the quality control lottery is real.

The 240Hz refresh and quick pixel response make motion look ridiculously smooth, and FreeSync Premium Pro keeps tearing at bay. Colors are vibrant right out of the box, covering 95% DCI-P3, and the VA panel's deep contrast adds punch. It's one of the faster monitors we've tracked. The weak spot? HDR is more good than great, as 350 nits can't deliver the eye-searing highlights you'd get from an OLED. And while FreeSync works flawlessly with AMD cards, NVIDIA owners are left guessing because there's no official G-Sync badge, just user reports that it sometimes plays nice.

The G75T's price range is all over the map, as much as $430 apart depending on where you buy. At the low end near $500, it's a steal for a 240Hz curved monitor with this kind of color and connectivity. But once you push past $700, the value gets murky, especially with QD-OLED competitors dropping in price. Our advice: hunt for a sale and grab it when it dips under $600.

Stacked against rivals, the Samsung carves out a nice lane. The LG UltraGear 45GX900A-B and MSI MPG 321CURX QD-OLED deliver better HDR and contrast, but they're often pricier and the LG uses a smaller 1440p panel. The ASUS ROG Swift matches this monitor's speed but skimps on the curve. And the Alienware 34" QD-OLED is a different beast entirely, ultrawide and ludicrous contrast at a cost. Samsung's 1000R curve and generous port selection give it an edge for immersive gaming on a budget, but if perfect blacks matter most, save up for OLED.

Steer clear if you're married to NVIDIA and can't stomach the idea of unofficial G-Sync support, or if HDR brightness is a dealbreaker. And if you'd rather not play the panel lottery, look at monitors with stronger user satisfaction scores—our data puts the G75T in the bottom half for owner sentiment.

Buy the Samsung G75T if you want a fast, gorgeous, deeply curved 32-inch display for gaming and everyday use, and you can snag it below $600. It's a plug-and-play dream for AMD users and a decent bet for NVIDIA folks willing to roll the dice on FreeSync. Just don't expect reference-level HDR, and make sure you buy from a retailer with a painless return policy in case you draw a faulty unit.
