Our Verdict

Samsung Odyssey G5 C27G55T

Samsung Odyssey G50A S27AG50

The Samsung Odyssey G5 S27AG50 is a newer monitor than the Samsung Odyssey G5 C27G55T, but they're different monitors. The S27AG50 has an IPS panel with wider viewing angles and a flat screen, while the C27G55T has a VA panel with better contrast, and the screen is curved. The S27AG50 has much better motion handling because it has a quicker response time, and there's no black smearing like on the C27G55T. It also has a slightly higher max refresh rate. On the other hand, the C27G55T's BFI feature works at a much wider range, and it has built-in speakers, which the S27AG50 doesn't.
