This Samsung Odyssey G7 gaming monitor, with its superb refresh rates, G-Sync, and 1ms response time, is currently only $549.99 at Amazon. That's $150 less than its previous pricing of $699.99—the price it had been for much of last year at Amazon.
It may not be as cheap as it was over the holiday deals season, but the price has at least gone back to less than for the majority of 2021, according to our favorite three camels. That's great, especially as this is a highly sought-after panel design, with the Odyssey name claiming a place among our list of best 4K gaming monitors.
This Samsung Odyssey G7 isn't 4K, but it still offers a 27-inch curved VA panel, at 1440p (that's QHD, not WQHD, ignore what the Amazon listing says).
As far as gaming is concerned, this one will blast through high frame rates with its 240Hz refresh rate, which is bolstered by AMD FreeSync support and certified G-Sync compatibility, for some well-synchronized frames.
You're also looking at a 1ms grey-to-grey response time, meaning your inputs should really count for something. And although the viewing angles aren't the greatest, this is a monitor with a great contrast ratio and very impressive color handling to boot.
Not bad for less than $550.
