I also saw that G8 Odyssey 34" today and have to say I am quite tempted but also a bit skeptical. I'm glad you guys are talking about it at the moment.

It is OLED not QD-OLED, so won't be as bright as the AW.
The USB-C ports aren't power/super charge compatible, so only for display purposes, plugging in your laptop won't charge it as the extended specs state n/a for any USB-C powered charging. Although saying that, the main page itself has a section saying USB-C Power, so what is it as it's not clear here in the full specs lower down!
Edit* Is ee even lower down it says "USB-C Charging Power 65W" - Although no mention if that's PD or not so may not charge all devices "fast". Sounds like it's for laptops only?
It has Smart TV features, how long will this side of the ecosystem remain up to date? Apps and smart features are OTA updated regularly on other smart devices, so will Samsung push OTAs to this like you get on TVs?
It's just FreeSync Premium, no FreeSync Premium Pro??
Does it have an SRGB mode? The specs says it is DCI 99% coverage, so you'd expect 100% SRGB, but there's no mention of colour accuracy or SRGB being available so I am going to suspect there's no calibration out of the box like there is with QD-OLED.
Burn in protection warranty??
No VESA mounting support for arms.
At £1300 there are a whole lot of questions that need answering.
It does have some cool stuff though like an all metal chassis, wireless display etc.
Sounds shallow.. But I wasn't too impressed that AW didn't offer AMD Freesync in their lineup as I am hoping to run either the 6950XT or 7900XTX in the future.Why not just get the Alienware one?![]()
Do you have a link? I'll check it out.The new black one may be better for you I think it’s freesync, then you can weigh up whether it’s worth the extra £500?
