This is a review of the Samsung Odyssey NEO G9, an upgraded version of the 49-inch G9 which was already awesome, but is now even better, thanks to upgrades that include 2,000 local dimming zones, HDR 2000, Mini LED display and much more.

Here I am, showing off all the gaming goodness this monitor has to offer. Including gaming, productivity and more.

Highlights of the Neo G9 include:
Much clearer picture quality and enjoyable colours
Improved HDR with good quality image

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
