Let me know what you think about the Samsung Odyssey G9 in the comments!

[mariusgmail]

Ergotron hx + heavy duty mount bracket. That arm will hold it, the bracket is specifically made for the G9 monitor

It's not within my budget but one is still arriving in 2 hours... :P

I just got this thing in last night - so far 24 hours it is working well. I do not have any of the noise making - I loved the integrated wire management into the arm - and I am running 240hz no problem. I am shocked how much more productive I am at work already and I echo the PIP feature - really really nice. Great video!

I bought mine at the end of September, no heat or cracking issues so far.
The Ergotron XL (don´t quite remember the exact model but you´ll be able to find it easily) is able to hold this monitor.

Hey just watched the video about how you landed your first job for 50k as a new unexperienced coder . Motivation I needed I’m trying to learn starting now I was learning but I quit after 4 months because life happens thanks for the motivation

It seems like the latest batch has fixed most of the problems. If you plan on getting one, make sure it was made after March of 2021.

Dude, that’s very good comprehensive and detailed review. Thanks

Here's a solution for your height adjustment problem for your G9 on a standing desk. Fasten a load bearing bracket 90° to the desk top. Use the wall bracket provided fastening to your preferred height. Either that or make a plinth that the monitor stands on to raise the height 100mm or so off the height of the desk top

I’m a software engineer... C# developer mainly developing WPF applications ... money isn’t the problem ... but I would like to know how you get on with the monitor for your IDE, browser research, source control etc ... is the curve a comfortable environment to work in?

Without the stand its only 31.1 pounds and i found several single monitor arms that can hold up to 33 pounds on Amazon.. I think you have options.. just ignore where they say how many inches they can support cause its only really the weight that would matter on a single monitor arm.

Great Video Dorian, I’m getting my G9 delivered today so I’m far better prepped for its arrival, unpacking and set up👍

[gamingengineer]

Can you please tell me what is the USB port for ? Can you use it to plug speakers or how can you plug speakers to the g9 ?

[MrArehammar]

Ergotron HX monitor arm takes up to 19kg so it will carry this display without problem. I have this arm and it is amazing.

[thomasadams]

Ergotron hx monitor arm is what I’m planning on getting. Hopefully it saves some desk space!

[knerkilajnen]

I have used 3 of them, waiting for my fouth, . All defect in various ways :)

[adamukrainetz]

Just bought one.. I put the base on it correctly and no wobble also I have it on a desk that is not for little people. Everything works perfectly.

[StanslaMichael]

Immersed as opposed to emerged. The latter would suggest your stepping out from, the former would denote that your being covered or surrounded by.

[soroornoor]

Will your Macbook be hot with this Monitor ?

Really good review. It tells the good and the bad, which many reviews don’t do.
