Samsung's premium Odyssey Neo G7 Mini LED monitor is £200 off with this code
This 32-inch 4K 165Hz model is ideal for PC, PS5 and Xbox Series X.
I just finished promoting our previous deals post on a Samsung ultrawide, and now I've spotted another deal using the same 48HR20 discount code on another model - Samsung's immensely impressive Odyssey Neo G7.
This 32-inch curved VA monitor offers a mighty 4K resolution, 165Hz refresh rate and a Mini LED backlight that provides superb, almost OLED-like HDR performance - without the burn-in potential or agressive brightness limiters that often feature on OLED panels. Now this is a premium option, with a normal price point of £999, but today with the 48HR20 code it's a slightly more palatable £799 at the Samsung UK store.
So £200 off is pretty impressive, but is this monitor worth the money? Well, it's one of the best-performing monitors in the exceedingly small Mini LED category, offering truly impressive local dimming that manages to offer a huge contrast between light and dark areas of a scene without the distracting halo effect around lighter objects. That's because, instead of offering just one zone (edge-lit monitors) or a handful of zones (full array local dimming), the Mini LED panel used in the Odyssey Neo G7 has 1196 local dimming zones. That's a massive upgrade and one that you'll definitely notice in HDR content, which looks phenomenal on this monitor.
Unlike the previous Odyssey G7 models, the Odyssey Neo G7 has a 4K rather than 1440p resolution, making it a much better choice for console gaming on PS5 or Series X. It has HDMI 2.1 ports for these consoles, allowing a full 4K 120Hz image with VRR, and of course there's FreeSync and G-Sync Compatibility for PC use as well.
Perhaps unsurprisingly, the Neo G7 has attracted a ton of warm reviews on the back of its performance, with Canadian outlet RTings calling it a great gaming monitor, with excellent motion clarity, low input lag and a full list of features - points echoed by other outlets too.
Overall then, this is an awesome choice despite its high price point, and if you're lucky enough to have a budget large enough to fit it in, you're unlikely to find a significantly better monitor that hits the same high specs.
