Our Verdict
HP OMEN 27c
Samsung Odyssey G65B S32BG65
Despite some similarities, the HP OMEN 27c and the Samsung Odyssey G65B S32BG65 diverge in some aspects. On the physical side, they both have a 1000R curved screen with a 1440p resolution. The Samsung is a 32-inch monitor, while the HP is 27. The G6 also comes with HDMI 2.1 bandwidth, while the HP is limited to HDMI 2.0 bandwidth. Although they use similar panel technology, the G6 does a better job of rendering a deeper contrast ratio. On top of that, the G6 handles motion better, but the HP is more responsive with lower input lag overall.
