Our Verdict

Samsung Odyssey G51C S27CG51

Samsung Odyssey G55C S27CG55

The Samsung Odyssey G5/G51C S27CG51 and the Samsung Odyssey G5/G55C S27CG55 are both 27-inch gaming monitors. Despite the G5/G51C being marketed as a lower-end monitor, it has better gaming performance. The G5/G51C has a substantially better response time, so fast-moving objects look crisper, and the monitor has considerably lower latency. The G5/G51C also has better ergonomics, so placing it in your preferred position for a long gaming session is easier. However, the G5/G55C gets considerably brighter, and you may prefer it if you're regularly gaming in a brighter room.
