Samsung's G7 series monitors have been around since June 2020, but it looks like they have reached end of life at this point. Several versions are sold out. We saw the 27-inch version go on sale a few weeks ago before it also sold out. And now Best Buy has the fantastic G77 Series 32-inch curved monitor on sale for a crazy low of $599.99. That's even better than the deal on the 27-inch version that has since expired. The price is $250 off what it normally goes for, and it's still going for $850 at some retailers like B&H.
This monitor surged in price during the global pandemic and even went as high as $1,850 as demand increased and supply dwindled. It has never dropped below $750 before at any retailer, including Amazon where even the regular blue version of the monitor is going for $800.
This monitor uses a 1000R curvature, which is designed to get as close to the curve of your eyes as possible. That makes the screen extremely immersive, whether you're watching movies or playing video games. Plus, you won't feel nearly as much strain on your eyes.
The specifications include a 2560 x 1440 pixel resolution, a 1ms response time, and an insane 240Hz refresh rate. If you consider that 60Hz is the average refresh rate and 144Hz is usually considered top tier for gamers, 240Hz steps up the clarity even more for an experience unlike other displays. This is a VA panel, which means it has a much better contrast ratio than other panels (2500:1), and it doesn't suffer from poor viewing angles like some VA panels tend to. It has 178-degree horizontal and viewing angles, which is as good as it gets in monitors.
You'll also find the VESA Certified DisplayHDR 600 standard is great for viewing HDR content and for getting the best possible image from the content you're viewing. The connectivity options include an HDMI port and a USB hub. It's also covered by a one-year warranty.
