I purchased this monitor to be mounted on a dedicated racing simulator. For this purpose, the G5 with the 1000R curve is nothing short of awesome for a single screen. The HDR10 mystery with the shortcomings have zero effect in a racing sim for the simple fact of the ever-changing lighting and shadows while racing. Most simulators are in a low light environment to enhance the experience and reduce glare from ambient sources. Shortcomings for one purpose is a benefit to a lot of us in contrast. Great review bro' ✌😎 I should also add, I paid CAD $450 for mine as opposed to the MSRP of CAD $599.

@@drdaddy777 Yeah, I'll be honest I think this review is being kind. I found it very poor. I already own the Alienware AW3418DW IPS and bought this to compare after upgrading to a RX 6800 because I was hoping to switch for freesync support. I realise there is difference in the Alienware being a high end and this one being mid range but the Dell is 3 years old at this point. The difference is massive. My Alienware is far, far superior to the point where the screen tearing is preferable to the ghosting and black smearing I had on my Samsung unit. UFO test had about a 3/4 inch trail behind it, it was that bad. I'm just gonna save some more money while I wait for the new LG 34GP950G. This maybe OK for someone already using a VA monitor but if your moving from a TN or IPS then just don't. The better contrast can't save the poor motion handling.

Can see through the screen at the edges too when white. stand rubbish, wobbles when just moving the mouse, overall the thing feels cheap. Its 250 nits so dim, so not HDR at all. Just get a 144hz 34-inch monitor from elsewhere like the iiyama for over £100 less. better build, metal stand with height adjustment, 400 nits, and 144hz vs 165hz who would notice that 20 Hz difference.

Every Smartphone has a lightsensor, so you dont need to mess around with contrast and brightness, no need vor multible settings, and for Monitors it is near impossible to find one with lightsensors, im using the BenQ 3501 and the lightsensor is absolutly a real step forward. i will never miss it again, i cant understand why 600 dollar Monitors even the top Model G9 has no lightsensors, its really a shame.

Hmmm thanks for the review ! Have you noticed inverse ghosting trails (overshoot) during dark transitions ? Because I have just gotten myself a ASUS TUF GAMING VG34VQL1B and its overdrive is pretty terrible and I'm really considering returning it for the Samsung G5 34", despite the asus' superb image quality, very high contrast, USB3 hub, better stand and in my opinion a more reasonable curve.

In my opinion, this samsung isn't worth. It's overpriced, because it has Odysee but it's nothing like Odysee G7 or G9. 1. Contrary to what is said in this video, it is not a wide gamut monitor at all. The only available specs that tell anything about colors is NTSC 72%, which is equal to 99% sRGB. Also CNET Korea measured it to 97% sRGB kzitem.info/news/bejne/wop_m4p3iKBnf6Q that is pretty disappointing and average, only 73% of the DCI-P3, not 95%. 2. Some people reported ugly inverse ghosting : kzitem.info/news/bejne/lW1j3ZiJh2ReaqQ The gigabyte has better colors, better contrast, better brightness (so better HDR experience), better stand. But you'll lose 21Hz. There is also the Cooler Master GM34-CW which can be considered : www.tftcentral.co.uk/reviews/coolermaster_gm34-cw.htm it's has even wider gamut but just slightly. There's also the ASUS TUF GAMING VG34VQL1B which I happen to own and has a similar price. 3440x1440 - 1500R - 165Hz + 1ms + FreeSync Premium - ELMB (but not at the same time as FreeSync) - 4000:1 contrast and brightness up to 550cd/m² + HDR10 and HDR400 support + RGB 10bit support up to 144Hz - 4xUSB3 - ergonomic stand But warning, contrary to Gigabyte & Cooler master's panel, this one suffers from inverse ghosting in the dark transitions... while the two others have inverse ghosting too but in the bright transistions which is less noticeable. So the Asus can be annoying at times and require to lower the overdrive to 20 on some game. You can check my channel I posted an example of the Asus's inverse ghosting. Though it's only on some specific dark transitions I can play Apex Legend for instance and never notice any inverse ghosting even with higher OD settings. And for me GSync works flawlessly without any screen flickering even at lower framerate. In the end I think the Gigabyte and the Cooler Master are the best ultrawide monitors in the price range. But if the ASUS fixes dark transitions overshoot, definitely the VG34VQL1B would be the best.

@@SagittariusAx First thing first , do you happen to own any G odyssey model? I have the G7 32" model and the G5 34" model. I bought the G7 first , and I was really impress by the image quality and colors. I did spend some time to set the colors and HDR to be what I preferred. Backlight bleed is barely noticeable, 10bits colors is really nice and the monitor is really bright from what I had before. You talking about inverse ghosting with the G5 , but actually, mine doesn't have any , if I compare it to the G7, impression is the same. I did bought the two monitors on sale. For me it's a really good price in my view. Yeah it not cheap as gigabyte 34" monitor but it's a better monitor because it has no backlight bleed where the gigabyte is horrible at this point, it's fastest, and if you watch hardware unboxed video they said that the gigabyte is not a real 144hz monitor. So to Compare it to the G7, yes the G7 is faster, I play warzone and I try both. I see a little difference but barely noticeable in my mind. Like I said I had the G7 before and REALLY like it. But after playing with the G5 34" , I figure I preferred gaming on this monitor. The panel is unbelievably black compare to the G7 , no backlight bleed at all, it's super fast compared to the standard G5 32" display, that I also try. Color has to be set in Nvidia control panels, and when this monitor is correctly set, is it as beautiful as the G7. So your comments is not based on true gaming experience like mine. I was a little bit bump out when I realized that is was not a 10bits panel , but like I said once in calibrated, it's perfect! Its less expensive then the new 165 MSI 34" and it has the same Panel. Hdr could be better and once calibrated its still really good, I try immortal Fenix rising and work great. The only monitor that , I think might be better is the new Asus tuf , but it's not available every where right now, and it's more expensive! So after a month of used , I really recommend this monitor!

@@Remmaster You see I said, in my opinion, so it's just an opinion. You have a different opinion, that's fine, but there is no need to act like I can't give my opinion because I don't own the monitor. Do you happen to own a Gigabyte G34WQC ? My opinion was based on some early feedback and specifications so it's not final especially when we didn't have ANY review out there. Also I've linked one of the rare user's video where someone shows bad inverse ghosting on the samsung. I don't think overdrive is just as random as back light bleed. Rtings' review is finally out today. overall it's a great gaming monitor, it's better than I was suspecting. But its responses time at 165hz are a little worse than the gigabyte at 144. Though like I said, it has less saturated colors, because it doesn't have a wide gamut coverage unlike the gigabyte but out of the box it's much better calibrated for sRGB space. Also something that couldn't be expected is the amazing contrast ratio 4500:1. All in all, I'd say the samsung is a better choice indeed than the gigabyte. Both are strong ultrawide options.

I went with the ASUS VG32VQ1B, and so far, it's been fantastic! 32", 165Hz refresh, 2560 x 1440 rez, and I must say, for a VA panel, the colors are vibrant, and the whites are, well, WHITE, with deep rich blacks. I haven't noticed any backlight bleed anywhere on the panel, but I'm also not actively looking for it. From what I can see so far, this panel is very nice for the price, and with the curve, it looks premium without the high cost!

@@cassysamel3914 Hmm I love it despite its flaws. I have just received an other monitor for my GF, it is the MSI 301MAGRF a 30" 1080 UW monitor which is IPS and 200Hz and GSync certified. I could compare both. In spite of being blown away by the response time of the MSI and superb motion clarity, the ASUS clearly has my preference even for competitive gaming. Anyway, I really don't regret my purchase although I had hesitated at first to send it back and I feel like I will keep it for a long time, I'll replace it with 34/37.5" a Ultrawide miniLED or OLED, so not before a couple of years. To sum up : + Awesome colours, high contrast and high brightness make it feel a bit oled like and it is much more viable for HDR gaming than many other 34" monitors. It can really feel bright and it often makes a difference, some games look WAY better in HDR such as Hellsblade. Even windows 10/11 Auto HDR is cool to play with on this monitor. + great motion clarity despite some dark smearing. + Freesync is often good + 120 Hz and OD set to 20 make 99% of the inverse ghosting disappear, which is perfect for some solo games. + 165Hz is awesome most of the time. + The curve is well balanced, not too pronounced, I really dislike the 1000R of the odyssey for instance. + great menu + default calibration seems decent. + can display 10 bit up to 144hz but to be honest it makes 0 difference in games, they're all using 8bit textures, in photoshop I can see the difference though. + The fact that it is 165Hz, makes it visibly more smooth even with freesync of and low framerate compared to my previous 34" 100Hz monitor. FreeSync/GSync isn't that crucial when you have such a high refresh rate monitor, so turning off freesync when it doesn't play too well isn't a big deal. + VA gamma shift isn't very noticeable, and less bother than the IPS glow + It looks nice, bezel are thing, no external charger and has a neutral look. + 4 USB 3 hub / easy menu - Freesync doesn't always play well, in some games at lower framerate, there can be some brightness flickering. And sometimes there can be some strong inverse ghosting on some frame (that's rare but it's very visible) - Sometimes, the coloured inverse is visible but it's on rare enough occasion that it's not a big deal. - BFI mode is not very useful. - HDR makes inverse ghosting more pronounced for some reason. - the curve fools trick your brain, once you get used to it, flat ultrawide look concave :( - speakers are pretty mediocre
