A video to compare the Samsung Odyssey G9 and the new Odyssey NEO G9.
The new model has upgrades that include 2,048 local dimming zones, HDR 2000, Mini LED display and much more. But what's it like in real life for gaming?

See my Samsung Odyssey NEO G9 review    • Super Ultrawide continues to be the b...  

Highlights of the Neo G9 include:
- Much clearer picture quality and enjoyable colours
- Improved HDR with good quality image
- Fast 240Hz refresh rate or 120Hz in PBP/PIP
- Local dimming settings lead to really decent blacks and HDR support

Lowlights:
- Eye care mode is a bit too bright to be comfortable
- It's expensive
- HDR still isn't perfect
- There are some shadowy blurry problems when working

Downsides of the monitor from what I've seen:
- HDR mode can be a PITA and problematic with some games
- If you have two DP cables plugged in adaptive sync can cause Windows to think there are two screens
