Our Verdict
Samsung Odyssey Neo G9/G95NA S49AG95
Dell Alienware AW3423DW
If you tend to game in dark rooms, the Dell Alienware AW3423DW is a better choice because it delivers deeper blacks than the Samsung Odyssey Neo G9/G95NA S49AG95. The Dell also has a quicker response time, which is great if you care about fantastic motion handling. However, the Samsung is better in well-lit rooms because it gets much brighter, and it's better for an immersive gaming experience thanks to its larger screen.
