Our Verdict
LG 27GR83Q-B
Samsung Odyssey G65D S32BG65D
The LG 27GR83Q-B and the Samsung Odyssey G65D S32BG65D are competing 1440p, 240Hz gaming monitors. They have different panel types, so the main differences are due to that. The Samsung displays deeper blacks, while the LG has wider viewing angles and is better for co-op gaming. Although the Samsung has better motion handling across its VRR range, the LG has less smearing at low refresh rates, and it doesn't have VRR flicker like the Samsung. Another difference is that the Samsung has the Tizen smart platform built-in, making it easy to stream content.
