The Odyssey G9 gaming monitor is on sale for just under $1,000 on Amazon, down $400 from its original price.

The 49-inch 5120 x 1440 monitor supports both G-sync and Freesync 2 and has a fast 240Hz refresh rate. In our review of the Odyssey G9, we noted that the curved monitor offers an experience that stretches around your entire field of vision.

It emits 1,000 nits of brightness and produces incredibly vivid colors. Sean Hollister summed up what it was like to game on this screen in his review.

I have to avoid my eyes when I play the game, and I could swear I felt the flames when my TIE bomber blasted an X-Wing into oblivion.

The Odyssey Neo G9 monitor is an upgraded version of this display. The 49-inch curved monitor is the same as the standard Odyssey G9. The Odyssey G9 Neo has a mini-LED backlit panel that produces 2,000 nits of brightness, which is more contrast than the Odyssey G9 The $2,499 price tag may not be worth it due to various issues we are seeing, but we will go over that in the full review.

There are no details on how long the Odyssey G9 will last on Amazon. We can think of an early Black Friday promotion that may not be around very long.
