Best picture I've seen on a monitor

I live this monitor and am planning on getting the 2nd gen just because it's given me the best quality I've had in a television or monitor. Definitely don't regret the buy only issue is now and then the picture will go black while still retaining audio and have to unplug and replug to get it to work

Perfect vertical monitor

Love the productivity increase from this thing as a vertical monitor next to my ultra wide OLED that I use for gaming etc. The only complain I'd have is the backlight has some problems with icons and sometimes the mouse doesn't trigger the localized blacklight to turn on. This gets worse when you turn on auto-dimming or whatever, but then the icons all look better. The one box runs a bit hot, but far from important. Samsung needs to do a better job overall with their remotes controlling multiple devices, I've got pieces of foil and tape over sensors all over the room this monitor is in to prevent cross communication. Mainly IR which seems to be active instead of bluetooth when the monitor is off being turned on.

Beautiful monitor geez

So, this screen is absurdly huge. I mean that in the best way. The moment I turned it on, it was like stepping into a portal. The curve wraps around you like it's trying to whisper, "Forget reality, this is your life now." And honestly? I didn't argue. Games look insane on it - colors pop without feeling fake, and the motion is smoother than anything I've used. I flinched during an explosion. No shame. The built-in sound system? It fooled me into thinking I had speakers behind me. It rumbles, it booms, it sings - and it does it all without extra gear. There's this little control dial that comes with it, and I'll admit it confused me at first. But once I got the hang of it, I felt like I was controlling a spaceship. Still not sure I'm using it to its full potential, but hey, I'm having a blast. For regular work stuff? Eh, it's overkill. Feels like typing an email on a movie screen. But for games, movies, and feeling like the main character? It's unbeatable. Just make sure your desk is emotionally ready. This thing is a beast - in the best

Avoid Samsung at all costs. Zero customer support

Avoid this company at all costs. They can not be trusted to warranty your expensive products nor will they work with you if you experience an issue at all. Samsung will do everything they can to weasel out of any and all agreements and warranty you may have. I purchased this monitor less than a year ago and the screen started to have audio pops then a capictor popped and took the whole screen with it. Samsung is trying to argue I stabbed the monitor from below with a nail or something (even though their own tech came out and felt the crack and said he couldn't feel a single scratch of glass damage or impact on the bezel) and refuse to honor the warranty. I am experiencing a motherboard or capacitor failure that Samsung is skirting their legal obligation via user damage when it came from the inside of the monitor. Samsung deserves neither your time or money and there are a bunch of users with the exact same issue as me.

Next-Level Immersion A Game-Changer in Every Sense

The 55" Odyssey Ark 2nd Gen is hands-down the most immersive display I've ever used. From the jaw-dropping 1000R curvature to the buttery-smooth 165Hz refresh rate, this screen transforms gaming into a cinematic experience. The Mini LED panel delivers stunning contrast and brightness, with vibrant colors that pop no matter the game or media. What truly sets it apart is the Cockpit Mode - being able to rotate the screen vertically and stack windows in Ark Dial mode feels futuristic and incredibly functional. Multitasking and streaming while gaming is a breeze. Samsung clearly listened to feedback from the first generation. The improved response time, smarter interface, and easier setup make this an elite choice for serious gamers or tech enthusiasts. Yes, it's a premium investment-but if you're looking for the ultimate setup, this is it. Highly recommend. Once you go Ark, there's no going back!

Amazing gaming montior

This gaming monitor is amazing! I put off ordering it for a while because of the price, but it's definitely worth it! My son has been needing a new gaming monitor for the past few years and I finally decided to splurge and get this one and I'm so glad I did! I never really understood the difference or if it would even really be noticable, but it is such a dramatic difference in his previous one! This is an awesome choice for an upgrade and will last many years to come! I could immediately see the difference and understand what all the fuss was about and why a good high quality monitor is preferred for gaming. The picture is stunning and the graphics and refresh speed are on point! We love everything about this gaming monitor and best of all my son is very happy with it and that's priceless to see your child smile and be happy! If you are on the fence about this because of the price, I am telling you as a mother of 5 that it is worth the investment!

Awesome monitor, buy from other website though

By JLPicard

Ridiculous monitor that fixes all of the original issues of Gen 1. I truly want to thank the Gen 1 people who bought it and returned filing their complaints. Want to say though, if you purchase this monitor, look for it on other sites. What Samsung doesn't say here is that it ships with AGS (do a google search of its history) and I'm anticipating a severe delay on mine actually delivered. Samsung website gave a delivery date of next week when i bought it but the emails saying AGS is in charge...
