Our Verdict
Samsung Odyssey G9
LG 45GR95QE-B
The Samsung Odyssey G9 and the LG 45GR95QE-B are both ultrawide monitors, but they have quite a few differences. The LG has a 45-inch OLED screen with a 3440x1440 resolution, while the Samsung is considered a super ultrawide monitor with a wider 49-inch screen and 5120x1440 resolution. The LG is better for most uses as it delivers perfect blacks without any blooming, and it also has a near-instantaneous response time for crisp motion. The LG has more accurate colors and displays a wider range of colors in HDR. However, the Samsung gets brighter, so it's better to use in well-lit rooms, and it doesn't risk permanent burn-in like the LG.
