Our Verdict
Samsung C49RG9/CRG9
Samsung Odyssey G9 C49G95T
Overall, the Samsung Odyssey G9 C49G95T is a bit better than the Samsung C49RG9/CRG9, mainly due to its higher refresh rate and lower input lag. However, the CRG9 has significantly less overshoot when running at its maximum refresh rate even though its response time is slightly slower, and it gets much brighter in SDR.
