Samsung Odyssey G5 G55C 27" QHD 165Hz Curved Gaming Monitor
The Samsung Odyssey G5 G55C LS27CG552EEXXY combines a 27-inch QHD display with an immersive 1000R curve and high-speed gaming performance. A maximum 165Hz refresh rate, 1ms MPRT response time and AMD FreeSync help deliver smooth, responsive gameplay, while HDR10 adds greater depth to supported games and multimedia content.
Detailed QHD Gaming
2560 x 1440 Detail
QHD resolution provides 2560 x 1440 pixels, delivering approximately 1.7 times the pixel density of Full HD for sharper game environments, detailed visuals and additional on-screen space.
2,500:1 Typical Contrast
The VA panel provides a typical 2,500:1 static contrast ratio, helping create stronger separation between bright highlights and dark areas.
HDR10 Support
HDR10 support helps compatible content display a broader range between dark and bright scenes for greater visual depth and detail.
Immersive 1000R Curvature
1000R Screen Curve
The 1000R curvature wraps the display around your field of view to create a more immersive gaming experience across the 27-inch screen.
178° Viewing Angles
Wide 178° horizontal and vertical viewing angles provide flexibility when viewing the display from different positions.
300 cd/m² Typical
The display provides 300 cd/m² typical brightness to support clear gaming, entertainment and everyday viewing.
165Hz Refresh Rate and 1ms MPRT
A maximum 165Hz refresh rate helps display fast-moving scenes with greater fluidity, while the 1ms MPRT response time is designed to minimise visible motion blur during rapid gameplay. Samsung notes that the 1ms MPRT measurement requires the Extreme mode setting and can vary depending on content and monitor settings.
Smoother Gaming with AMD FreeSync
AMD FreeSync
AMD FreeSync synchronises the monitor refresh rate with a compatible graphics card to help reduce screen tearing during games and fast-moving entertainment.
Fast Control Response
Low Input Lag Mode is designed to reduce processing delay between your controls and the action displayed on screen.
Gaming-Focused Settings
Refresh Rate Optimizer and Samsung's Super Arena Gaming UX provide additional controls for configuring the monitor for gaming.
