Our Verdict

Samsung Odyssey G51C S27CG51

Samsung Odyssey G50D S27DG50

The Samsung Odyssey G51C S27CG51 and the Samsung Odyssey G50D S27DG50 are 27-inch 1440p gaming monitors. The G51C is a better option if you're gaming in a dark room, as deep blacks look darker. The G50D is a better option in a bright environment as it's much better at overcoming glare.
