What is the Samsung Odyssey Neo G9 Monitor?

The successor to the earlier Odyssey G9, the new Samsung Odyssey Neo G9 is the world’s first Mini LED backlit gaming monitor with an array of Quantum Mini LEDs across its entire 49-inch expanse to offer  beautiful colour reproduction, breathtakingly deep blacks and beautiful levels of detail to make digital worlds come to life.
