I was expecting a transition at the end to LTT Sponsor for Kitchen Sinks, Bells and Whistles.
I somehow lucked out and got 2 G9's last year. I honestly cant say enough good things about them, incredible productivity and gaming is super dope.
They need to start making ultrawide displays that natively divide the image in three: a center 16:9 or 16:10 image and two outside images with the remainder of the pixels. I would ditch my 3 monitor setup for it.
That's easily possible running nvidia's Control Software and I'm sure it's the same for amd
I clicked on the timeframe and it ended the video 😑
PLEASE. I have two portrait monitors on the side of my main and I want to ditch the bezels so bad but without third party software organizing windows into that orientation would be a huge pain.
I don’t understand this comment but really want to. Can you explain?
@@6eorg393 We want virtual monitors within one hardware monitor. Split the screen into different monitors like how we can currently do with applications. It is easier to snap applications into specific shapes if the application thinks it is going fullscreen. Additionally, if you have two different kinds of monitors then you may get different pixel densities that prevent things from ever looking right. Partitioning one big monitor into several virtual monitors wouldn't have this issue (I don't think).
Wow, hearing Linus pronounce „VDE“ is treat i didn’t expect today. Very…creative 😁
VDE = Verband der Elektrotechnik Elektronik Informationstechnik e. V.
= Verband Deutscher Elektrotechniker Institut (what Linus said)
= Association of German Electrical Engineers
That's a long ass Name
Yup. so far I have no regrets, and yes you need a strong card! what's really nice is there's games that actually give you the extra FOV on the 5120x1440 resolution. the only real issue is trying to live stream on ultrawide is not really supported on twitch. The immersion is pretty great. I've missed a few phone calls being a bit too immersed :D
I love how your videos are native 21:9 cause they work perfectly on my phone
At least thats what i imagine is happening
Don't forget the #1 feature this monitor has over its predecessor: Backlight bleed is no longer an issue. 90% of the old monitors (Odessey G9 2020) had backlight bleed issues and became near unusable because of that. I'm glad they finally got that fixed.
Considering that this is literally one of the best LCD panels you can buy, here I sit still seeing a pretty big halo, cause my monitor shows the halo haha. It's a cool test.. but basically none of us can truly tell the difference, if we have a worse monitor. Still love you Linus
If you have a OLED phone switch to that. It gives a good idea and it’s pretty impressive.

Hey I got a g9 yesterday and I got a 2070 super and we got it working on 240hz it's just in the settings
I got an LG ultragear 31,5" instead because this one wouldn't fit on a monitor arm let alone fit on my desk. Just too big
SAME but with a 3070. Hopefully someone here in the comments can help.
I'd advise andy to try and get it to display in the center and get the sides to go white.
Better lighting that way 😈
Easy enough. Windows Borderless Gaming, then just open a white image on the desktop.

Was thinking of waiting for this screen to upgrade my 2k 34" ultra wide. So freaking glad I didn't. Went with the LG CX48. Man, nothing beats OLED. Loving the screen and lack of curve is just better for me.
They came in and installed like 5 of those at my old work for supervisors
They are an amazing monitor
I've been using the last years G9 for about a year now for work, studying and gaming, and honestly couldn't be happier with it. Sure sometimes it does give you a bit of a headache, but the pros definitely outshine the cons for me. The dimming zones on the old model do suck for sure, but on my day to day use they haven't bothered me too much.
Same here with my crg9 (the g9's predecessor). Won't say I wouldn't like to upgrade, but I've already got one awesome monitor.
RATIO
@@MC3DGoldSeto 32:9
what do you mean by headache? like a literal headache from the way you're viewing things?
@@iooooooo1 Well more about things what you've gotten used to working silky smooth with normal 16:9 monitors, using bios can sometimes be a struggle and other stuff like that just doesn't quite feel as snappy as your ordinary normal monitor. And editing pictures is a nightmare, you move 2 inches to the left and the colors look completely different on this monitor than what they do when you move back to the dead center of it.
But actually about literal headaches, I did get my eyes very tired and a small headache during the first hours of using the monitor because of it's immense curve, but after getting used to it you cant even notice it.

If possible, could you also do a blurtest in the future (testufo, for example).
Even if it's getting less relevant with higher refresh rates, it would still be nice to see the differences between panel types and which colors make it worse or better.
i think linus don't review the stuff when the company sponsored the video
I'd just check out RTINGS ratings of monitors. They do in depth scientific testing. Better than pretty much all other reviews I've seen
@@mynameispron Ah, alright. Because one might think that the opinion might not be his own, but the company's or is there another reason?
@@pzkY @@pzkY this channel's policy when doing sponsored video is they will showcase (not reviewing) product capabilities by (maybe) showing some feature, unboxing, and mentioning all the talking point that the company gave them. however, showcase is not the same as review, and that means there won't be in depth performance testing, benchmark, like we usually see in a "review" video. however linus also said (if i recall correctly) that they won't say stuff the don't believe to be true about the product even though they are showcasing the product. hope this helps and pls correct me if im wrong.
Just watch hardware unboxed´s video about the monitor, he does all the tech stuff much more detailed and better than LTT does. + bargraffs... :-)

You can also use it as two 27 inch monitors on one screen.
@@PowerofRock24 Yea, but it still takes up too much space. I prefer having one screen anyway
@@jkteddy77 Please tell me what it's like when you use it. I was thinking of playing games at 21:9 on it but I worry that most games will stretch to 32:9 when played at 21:9.
I have the CRG9 (the predecessor to this monitors predecessor) and having lived with a 32:9 aspect ratio for awhile now…it definitely isn’t for everyone. Even something as basic as finding a decent desktop background is a chore. There are also other annoying things like how most in browser video players that don’t know how to handle it effectively (going full screen leaves a whole bunch of blank space on the sides but you can’t multitask in those blank spaces…I basically have to use theatre mode on CZcams instead).
You basically need a massive desk because of its foot print or you’ll need to invest a couple hundred dollars in a monitor stand that can support the weight. The monitor will be so heavy that most monitor stands with head tilt functions won’t be able to handle it.
Having said that, I love the PBP mode. It basically allows you to treat the monitor like two separate 16:9 27 inch monitors.
Paying youtube premium to avoid adds, but there is Linus, with adds! Seriously, the only channel in this vast ocean that I'm not mad at your adds because they are part of this whole LTT expirence! I love you all! It's great that I just found you so I have like 13 years to catch on! Oh yeah! Life is beautiful! Thank you!
as someone who enjoys suffering thru destiny 2, I appreciate seeing it, but id be curious to the reason why some games aside from the usual few (doom/forza) get picked.
The games that often get chosen are there because they are highly optimized while also being good examples of what they do. So it’s the hardware being tested without having to worry about the software being a issue.
Destiny 2 is well optimized for Ultra-wide monitors.

A slightly less ridiculous version of that would be to have the game running at 16:9 in the middle 50% of the monitor, with white on the 25% on each side.
Thank You once again Linus Tech Tips, was waiting for your hands on impressions and review of the updated G9 was tempted to buy the previous model glad I waited out. I’ll defo look to get this model 🔥😁🎮
This isn't a review...
as of july 2022 I finally got my hands on one of these. they might not be the bestfeature/value ratio but (so far knock on wood) it hasnt had problems and it looks amazing with the games im throwing at it. i am running it with a 3080ti and honestly, i only have a handful of games that can run it anything over 120fps on it. it is quite the experience and im very happy with mine. mine was on sale for $1800 down from $2250-ish
The G9 is a great monitor for gaming and work! Though for the latter I would recommend pairing it with MS Powertoys and configuring the fancy zones
Exactly what I do. DP 1 is personal desktop, DP 2 is my work laptops docking station. For work use fancy zones with spit 3 way and sometimes 4 way.

I'm a simple man, I see Riley catch a monitor like he is fishing and talking Canadian 😅 I hit the like button.
what i wish was discussed more was the regular desktop experience with these ultrawides, what's the best way to get a good flow? something that makes virtual displays like display fusion, is windows making improvements for ultrawide support?
Beautiful work, Riley
this is the gauntlet of monitors hands down also i have the first ultra wide and love it i will upgrade to this one next
Riley deserves a pay rise with all of these intros
Thank you for this review.
I have a request: when you do the reviews on these monitors, can you also briefly talk about color accuracy (for us graphic designers)?
I would greatly appreciate it. Thank you 🙏🏾
this is not a review
I am drooling. I love my G9, but 2000+ dimming zones? Wow! I wish they would make a new one like the Neo but with 1600 lines! :D

Hi, still happy? I currently looking into the 43 Inch-Version of the phillips, because of my small desk^^
I like how they came up with neo now. Just lately got firmware updates and bios to make g9 and 3090 work at 240hz.... Though most smaller resolutions are not usable over 144hz.

Well to be fair HDR support in windows itself is still really really crappy.
But yeah if I try to run ms flight sim with hdr 240hz my entire computer will actually crash regularly so I'm not exactly pleased.

Not every channel can go off-script on a product showcase and get away with it.
You mean other than one of the biggest tech youtubers out there?
They could as long as they show it off well
When you're a big channel with many tech nerd folks who trust the hosts, it's making it harder for brands to force you to a certain sketchy stuff because all it takes is just for those hosts to report it to the audience. If it's a smaller channel, however, they may think it's worth putting the host on the spot since the host doesn't have much to counter 'threat' the demands

I actually do use my g9 where I have my work computer on half and my computer on the other half when working. I love the g9 because of that.
Any thoughts on the color accuracy of this monitor? For tasks like video and photo editing?
I mean, I have a G9, but already ordered the Neo G9. I said to myself the G9 would be the last monitor until they released mini led ultrawides......and here we are. NOW the only thing i will upgrade for after the Neo G9 is an OLED ultrawide, but who knows if those will ever come out.
Micro led is arguably better for brightness and durability
I love my g9, I will have to wait a few years to upgrade now!
Now there is an OLED ultrawide lol they got your wallet now
I've got the G9 (Not the Neo reviewed here), and I have HDR turned off. It's pretty bad. The 10 dimming zones basically make it unusable, especially in games that take place in dark areas (Resident Evil Village was especially bad).
If I didn't already have the original G9, I'm sure this offers a much better experience.
However, I also only paid $1400 for the G9, whereas it looks like this thing is going for $2500. I don't think I'd be able to justify buying this for over $1000 more.
Yeah some people say if you could run this in SDR while also paying for it as of they didn't charge for HDR, then it's a good deal
It's not the monitor I fixed the problem by just disabling that stupid "Vignette" effect I fucking hate it !!
I have one, it is fantastic. I went a bit OTT and have a 27" on the side as well. So it's basically triple 27" if i want to go full productivity, or a main display and a side for media control.
Glad I watched this video.....pretty sure I wouldn't of thought to attach the stand to screen prior to removing monitor from box haha

I exclusively use my CHG90 in 2 * 16:9 or in 21:9 + 11:9 mode (when 21:9 mode works properly, Nvidia drivers made it start flickering), very few games and applications take advantage of 32:9, only downside is it limits the refresh rate to 100 down from 120 and no HDR in split mode.
Had the 48 CX for about 2 years now. Still love it. Always debated getting one of these instead, but the price difference was too big. And I have a large desk that can handle the 48 inches. Now that they have a 42 inch and dells oled monitor, competition is great.
I love the way you talk to us like we are all gonna buy 2 of them or something.
The good news is that I am in my early 20's. I can still get this type of stuff for a decent price before I die (probably what, like 10-20 years at this rate). :D
Hopefully by that time you will be able to pick up an RTX 3090 for msrp to go with it =p
Assuming you make enough money to cash out I dunno 2/3 of your monthly income on some diodes
@Mr.Springtrap im in my early 20' and even with a part time job and being a student the answer is a no..
RATIO
@Mr.Springtrap im in my early 20s and was able to get myself one (the previous model) for a bit less than msrp about a year ago
I love seeing samsung making a 1000R Curve monitor, but never a 2 by 2 chip for a PS5. Great stuff Sumsung it's been a year now haha
I am thinking about the G9 for sometime, but I wanted to wait for the newer version.
Since I am one of those mad persons who loves my desktop with a clean black background and without icons, I will quickly start to noticed "deffects"
I think I will lean towards de cx48 now...
9:03 the VDE doesn't certify monitor specs, they certify electrical equipment for safety and check if everything is up to (electrical) code
Makes me so happy watching you play both Destiny 2 and Forza Horizon 4. Like the only games I play lol
I hope we get to see more of these monsters. Regular 27" and 34" have improved so much last 5 years.
This is definitely the BEAST MODE!
3:23 perfectly balanced on one tiny corner, as all monitors handled by Linus should be.
I can’t believe that you didn’t mention the major HDR flaw in retail units when Hardware Unboxxed did.
Because this isn't a review, its clearly listed as a showcase which means samsung is paying him to market it.
@@sircommissar If this is the case then the channel has no credibility
@@RSL1836 they have been taking sponsored videos for actual years. They quite clearly state when they are reviewing and just doing a sponsored showcase. For example look at the original odyssey g9 review and showcase.
@@sircommissar
Dude, a showcase? Come on.
Pull your head out of Linus’ ass.
He’s literally testing several games, saying “The HDR is awesome” or something like that.
He should know better than to make definitively sounding statements in a hardware “showcase” video without clearly mentioning that this are only first impressions and that people should wait for the review if one is coming or get a review somewhere else.
Also, Linus doesn’t get stuff to market it.
If this was a marketing video he should have stated so very clearly in the title, the description and the video.
What a ridiculous comment.🤦🏻♂️
@@Lock2002ful are you just ignorant in choice or are you just new to LTT this has been how they have done things since it was 4 people in a house. What am I talking about its youtube comments you clearly are ignorant by choice.
Videos with "showcase" in the title are sponsored (its in the description, it clearly says its sponsored) and videos titled "review" are ones with extensive testing and the opinions of LTT staff.
This is clearly a video that they were paid to praise the monitor. Please dont waste peoples time with this nonsense. At the vary least you won't waste mine. Have a good day my man.
Now thats what you call a creative intro👍
You had me at nipple style navigation.
From someone that has a ultrawide monitor, what these reviews never mention is that a lot of the games that you will want to play wont support it so you will have massive black bars on the sides
There’s often mods for it tho
Would like to see you double stacking it like your current setup 😆
Why? Seems like an 8k TV would be a better experience, and cheaper, too.
@@OtherTheDave *4k, a 50" 4k IPS can be had for
@@serbrighterunagainst9231 There are 8k TVs cheaper than two of the monitors Linus is showing here.
I'd like to know what kind of set up you need to run and actually take advantage of this monitor. I'd also love a comparison between this monitor and the earlier one. There is about a $1000 price difference. Is it worth it?
thank you I love your channel
