If you're looking to upgrade your monitor to something bigger, this new holiday deal is definitely worth consideration. eBay (via Buydig) is offering the massive 49" Samsung Odyssey OLED G9 (G91SD) gaming monitor for just $679.99 with free delivery. It normally retails for $1300. This is the lowest price I've seen for a 49" OLED gaming monitor from any brand, including the generic no-names you'll find off Amazon. Buydig is an authorized Samsung reseller (which means you get the full 1 year warranty) and has over 600,000 eBay reviews with a greater-than-99% rating.
49" Samsung Odyssey OLED G9 Gaming Monitor $680
Samsung is the top selling OLED gaming monitor brand, and that's no surprise if you've ever seen one of these massive Odyssey G9 monitors in person. The G9 is Samsung's highest end Odyssey model. The G91SD in particular features a quantum dot OLED panel, which is one of the best types of panel for gaming thanks to its near instantaneous 0.03ms response time, true black levels, and near-infinite contrast ratio.
The 5120×1440 dual-QHD resolution offers a sharp 109ppi pixel density, or roughly equivalent to two 27" QHD monitors placed side by side. The monitor boasts an aggressive 1800R curve for better immersion and a more comfortable viewing experience. Note that the G91SD features a native 144Hz refresh rate instead of the 240Hz found in the G95SD, which is why it retails for less. For most gamers, even a 144Hz refresh rate is perfectly fine and more GPUs can handle it.
