My G7 32" is FB02 so MAY 2020 and one of better ones (also seen this is some reviews).

Do you have any flicker at all? Mine's a FB02 on the Korean firmware and i have mild flicker in game loading menu in BFV with no dead pixels. I have till the 9th of Sep to initiate a return with another retailer but am hesitant as it's a beautiful picture.

I've got a 27" FB01, on the Korean Firmware, now with the very latest official Nvidia Driver (no longer the Hotfix Driver), and get no flickering with GSync/VRR on (but currently with my display set to 144Hz 10 bit colour, not 240Hz 8 bit colour, as my GTx1080 is a limiting factor to never reach FPS anywhere close to 240 anyway). No dead pixels. No issues I'm aware of. I've just settled in to using it and I love it.

Cheers for that, I just upgraded my rig to a i7 10700k and a RTX 2080 Super so want to run it at 240hz

You can read out the manufacturing date from the serial number.
For more information on how to, see here:
https://www.reddit.com/r/ultrawidem...ung_odyssey_g9_collection_manufacturing_date/

I also opened a spreadsheet, see here:
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet...fNmRS8FAYpA5VKgKRfH8OWQY06vL-RVF0OOjv/pubhtml

It would be great if you could all leave responses either on Reddit or here with:
Version Number: FA01 / FA02
Manufacturing Date: May 2020 / June 2020 / July 2020 / August 2020
Light Leak present: Yes / No (opt. Position top left, length 20 mm)
(Opt. Retailer (not allowed here) Country/Ordered/Received)

I will then take your responses and put them in the spreadsheet. Thanks in advance!

I've been playing the cat and mouse game also...had the stock alerts, gone in there quick on the e.byer one which turned out to be a mirage and had to get a refund back. Samsung alert came through but never even saw it show as in stock on website.
I have brand new kit sat under the desk and no monitor to use it lol, waiting for this G9 baby and be more future proof.
Not just buying it for gaming though, hoping it will help with multi-tasking as working from home permanently atm due to lockdown.
 
I managed to snag one from Samsung today for delivery tomorrow, will let you know the manufacturing date when I receive it. Its stuck on 'preparing to dispatch' right now. I did try order a G7 from there a few months ago and nothing ever got dispatched so I am not expecting much.

Exactly the same here on the eb one. Bought. Mirage. Refund. Then appeared a few days later so bought again. There was a point when I was £2600+ out of pocket for this thing it's arriving Saturday so will update with stats then.
