Our Verdict
ASUS VG279Q
Samsung Odyssey G3 F27G35T
The ASUS VG279Q is a better gaming monitor than the Samsung Odyssey G3 F27G35T, but they have different panel types. They each have a 1080p resolution with a 144Hz refresh rate, but the ASUS has an IPS panel with wider viewing angles, and the Samsung has a VA panel with better contrast. Motion looks much smoother on the ASUS due to its quick response times. It's also a better choice for use in well-lit rooms because it gets brighter and has a bit better reflection handling.
