Our Verdict
Samsung Odyssey Neo G9/G95NC S57CG95
LG 49WL95C-W
The LG 49WL95C-W and the Samsung Odyssey Neo G9/G95NC S57CG95 are different types of super ultrawide displays. The LG is more focused on productivity as it has a USB hub that includes a USB-C port, so you can easily connect your laptop. On the other hand, the Samsung monitor delivers better picture quality thanks to its Mini LED backlighting, and it also provides sharper images with its higher resolution. Lastly, the Samsung model has many more gaming features since it has a higher 240Hz refresh rate, which is ideal for even PC gamers.
