For many gamers, a wide-screen, curved OLED monitor is the holy grail. Not only do these screens provide unprecedented views of some of gaming’s most stunning vistas (and fantastic peripheral views for watching your flank in competitive titles like Marvel Rivals or CoD), but OLED panels make visuals pop like no technology ever has before. The colors are richer, the blacks are deeper, the whites are more vibrant, and the graphics looks crisp enough to slice through MJOLNIR Assault Armor (that’s from Halo, if you’re not a nerd like me) like butter.

The problem is price. OLED displays are gorgeous, but they’re often prohibitively expensive, especially when you’re talking about a curved display that’s as big as Samsung’s 49-inch Odyssey.

SAMSUNG 49″ Odyssey G93SC Series OLED Curved Gaming Monitor, 240Hz, 0.03ms, Dual QHD, DisplayHDR True Black 400, FreeSync Premium Pro, Height Adjustable Stand, LS49CG932SNXZA, 2023

Luckily, it’s Prime Day to the rescue, with a 44% discount that knocks the Odyssey down to an all-time low of $899.99, brings stunning curved OLED within reach of mere mortals. That’s a frankly remarkable price for a gaming monitor that’s the size of a fairly large flatscreen TV, particularly when you consider the price premium usually applied to curved monitors. While OLED has been increasingly more affordable in recent years, getting a display this size for under $1,000 is still quite novel.

It’s not just for the gamers, either. A big, 49-inch wraparound display like this is a boon for creatives of all types, especially anyone that works in the visual arts. Not only does that curved panel make for more natural viewing angles, but the remarkable color accuracy and vibrancy of OLED is a huge advantage for image and video editing. 

If you are a gamer, however, the good news doesn’t end at OLED. The Odyssey also packs a 240Hz refresh rate, so even the best hardware won’t overwhelm it with too many frames, and it’s bristling with a bevy of ports to hook up whichever consoles, PCs or laptops your heart desires. And don’t fret about latency: Samsung says the Odyssey delivers an incredible 0.03ms(GTG) response time, so fighting game and shooter fans won’t get outfoxed by input lag.

Looking for something else? Retailers like Walmart, Best Buy, and Home Depot have Prime Day competition sales that are especially useful if you don’t have Amazon Prime.

• Walmart’s Prime Day competition sale begins at midnight on July 8 and will include deals up to 50% off. It’s an especially good option if you have Walmart+. 

• Best Buy’s Prime Day competition sale, “Black Friday in July,” runs through Sunday, July 13 and has some of the best tech sales online. It’s an especially good option if you’re a My Best Buy “Plus” or “Total” member.

Home Depot extended its 4th of July sale through at least July 9, competing with some amazing deals of its own. It’s an especially good option if you’re looking for power tools, appliances, or outdoor equipment.
