With the vigorous development of the e-sports industry, gamers have higher and higher requirements for gaming equipment, and the monitor, as the hardware with the most contact with users and the strongest perception, has always been the object of everyone's "pickiness". In my opinion, a good gaming monitor must not only have excellent performance, but also meet the needs of gamers in terms of appearance design, functional features, etc. Today, I will bring you a detailed review of the "ceiling" in gaming monitors - Samsung's OLED gaming monitor G95SC, and see how this product, which claims to be leading the industry in many aspects such as display effect and gaming experience, performs.
The exterior design of the G95SC is simple and atmospheric, and the overall lines are smooth, highlighting high-end quality. The metallic body with ultra-narrow bezels makes the display look more stylish and technological.
It is worthy of the title of "e-sports ceiling" in terms of appearance, when everyone is still fighting for the 21:9 fish screen market, people have already jumped out of the limit, and directly came to a 32:9 ultra-wideband fish screen!Let's talk about its parameters in a nutshell, 49-inch screen size, 1800R curvature, dual 2K (5120*1440) screen resolution, 240Hz refresh rate and 10bit color depth, and has a quantum dot Pro AI processor, Display HDR True Black 400, native 10700 million colors to bring the top HDR image quality,The combination of these parameters is simply born for games,Whether it's the high brush required for competitive games such as racing,Or the immersion that 3A masterpieces want to achieve,You can enjoy the most extreme experience on this screen。
In terms of the most important display effect of the display, the G95SC is equipped with a QD-OLED panel, which has excellent color expression. It emits light through fluorescent materials, and the color of each pixel can be adjusted individually, so its power consumption is very low, and the risk of screen burning that everyone is worried about is extremely low. On the picture, its performance is high color saturation, accurate color reproduction, and can present vivid and true colors. At the same time, the performance of black is also very good, the depth of black, the nature of black, and the purity of black, almost achieving the effect of "colorful black". This makes the image more layered when it comes to showing dark details. The left half of the picture above is the test of using 8K60P- HDR***The color performance is very shocking, and only if you have really compared and experienced it can you understand the shock of this screen in color, on the right is the game screen of the old man's ring, compared to the rich and gorgeous color performance on the left, this part can better reflect the expressiveness of the dark details in the game, and it is very clear.
When it comes to gaming monitors, responsiveness is critical. The response speed of the G95SC is very fast, almost reaching 003 milliseconds level. This allows players to clearly see every detail in high-speed moving graphics, such as racing games such as Horizon, without smearing or afterimage, let alone stuttering, screen tearing, etc., which is essential for esports games that require quick reactions.
Due to the high-curvature, long-screen design, the G95SC has a very wide viewing angle. This means that players can get a clear and undistorted picture from different angles** of the display. This is useful in multiplayer** matches or when players need to adjust their sitting position. When playing a triple-A masterpiece like Cyberpunk 2077, the G95SC's 32:9 ratio and curved design made me feel very immersive, and with the blessing of various effects such as HDR and ray tracing, it was like entering the real world. On top of that, most triple-A games currently support a 32:9 ratio, so it's no problem to play.
For more games that don't eat too much configuration and don't have high immersion requirements, its ultra-wideband fish screen also has a "physical plug-in" role, whether it's Dota 2, LOL, or other MOBA games, it can show a wider field of vision, allowing us to find enemies first, so as to control the whole situation.
The G95SC also has a variety of game modes built-in, including FPS, RTS, MOBA, and other genres. These modes are optimized for different types of games and enhance the gaming experience for players. For example, in FPS mode, the display optimizes dark detail and color representation, allowing players to better spot and react to enemies in shooter games.
In addition to the built-in game mode, the G95SC also supports a custom setting function. Players can adjust the brightness, contrast, color and other parameters according to their needs to create a personalized game picture. This allows every player to find the display settings that work best for them and enhance the gaming experience.
After talking about the front design, display effect and gaming experience, let's take a look at the back of the G95SC, it adopts an integrated fuselage design on the back, the overall sense is very strong, and the base is a polygonal design with strong support, which can be used to place remote controls, table and other accessories. And the screen can be raised and lowered by sliding up and down, there is a sense of damping, but it is very smooth when sliding, and the screen direction can also be adjusted to the pitch angle, so that you can find a more comfortable position in games or leisure entertainment. The back support part is also designed with a retractor, and various cables such as power cords, HDMI cables, and Type-C can be gathered and summarized through the holes of the reel, so that the table will not be reduced because of the messy cables, and these small details can see Samsung's ultimate control of the product and its unique pursuit of design.
The back of the G95SC is designed with a turbo light ring, and its color can be adjusted in real time according to the game screen, creating the best sense of gaming atmosphere. I also specially turned off the lights to see the lighting effect on its back, the colorful RGB light effect with the special effect of breathing, the atmosphere is directly full. The most important thing is that it can also reflect the lighting effect to the wall in a low-light environment, which has a feeling of having its own background light, and there is no need to match the atmosphere light for the wall and desktop.
Look at the close-up of the details on the back, the overall metallic texture is very good, the feel is relatively smooth to the touch, it will not be stained with fingerprints, and the logo of the dragon knight will not look abrupt on the back, and the overall design style is full of e-sports atmosphere and sense of luxury. Personally, I feel that this metallic color and design style can be matched with various e-sports rooms or home environments, and the applicability is very strong.
As mentioned earlier,G95SC adopts an ultra-thin integrated fuselage design,And this ultra-thinness is embodied in the thickness of the screen,At present, the data at the thinnest part of the official display is4.9mm, and the thickness I actually measured is not much different, it's an exaggeration to have such a thin design in such a long screen, even much thinner than my iPhone. And the front bezel of the screen is also extremely narrow,Basically, sitting close to the point will feel "full of screens",It is recommended that it is best to have a table with a relatively large length and width size,While feeling this exaggerated immersion,Let the desktop not be too cramped。
The ultra-thin screen size does not affect its expansibility,After all, as an e-sports monitor,The user's demand for expandability is still relatively high,At presentG95SChe has three Type-C ports,One of them is the uplink Type-C,The rest can be expanded。 In addition to this, there are two HDMI21 and dp14. Whether it is a computer console, PS5, Xbox or Switch, it can be easily accessed.
There are very few physical buttons on the monitor, only one power button can be operated, but generally speaking, such a large display, it is better to operate fewer physical buttons.
What I don't think of the most is,This monitor is also equipped with a remote control separately,Similar to the traditional TV remote control,The design is very simple,But the function is not general,All kinds of game images、Screen ratio、Mini map and other functions can be called out by pressing and holding the ** button in game mode,It is still very convenient to operate,And there is no need to switch the display on and off the physical buttons,After all, such a large fish screen,It is still a little inconvenient to touch a physical switch button behind the back,So it is more convenient to use the remote control switch。
Of course, as a remote control, its function is more than just adjusting settings, because G95SC comes with Samsung's Tizen OS TV operating system, you can watch TV directly through the remote control, and most importantly, its built-in TV system is completely free of ads!Click on it to broadcast!Of course, the source of the film is also very rich, covering the resources of major mainstream platforms such as iQiyi, Tencent**, Youku, Bilibili, Mango TV, etc., I also flipped it over, and the recent hit dramas can be found in it.
Overall, Samsung's OLED gaming monitor G95SC has become a leader in the gaming display market with its excellent appearance design, excellent display performance, and rich features, and it can even be said to be the ceiling. For gamers looking for the ultimate gaming experience, the G95SC is undoubtedly an option worth considering. Although relatively high, the quality and performance are enough to make people feel like they are worth the money. Anyway, I can't go back, and people's adaptability is really terrible, as long as you get used to a more advanced or higher-dimensional experience, you can't easily downgrade the experience. After a period of evaluation, it can really be described as G95SC in Dan with hard to return, which can bring a multidimensional experience in many aspects such as visual effects and game performance. If you're looking for a high-end, professional gaming monitor, then the G95SC would be a great choice.
