Why you should buy the 49-inch Samsung Odyssey OLED G9 gaming monitor

The Samsung Odyssey OLED G9 gaming monitor is featured in our roundup of the best gaming monitors as our top pick if you want to play the best PC games on a 32:9 aspect ratio. It also received an amazing score of 4.5 stars out of 5 in our review, where we described it as a “game-changing gaming monitor” and one of the best OLED displays that we’d ever tested at that time. The QD-OLED technology in this 49-inch screen enables an unmatched immersive gaming experience, with impressive brightness and perfect black levels combining with dual QHD resolution for lifelike details and a 240Hz refresh rate for extremely smooth animations.

With support for Nvidia’s G-Sync and AMD’s FreeSync Premium Pro, you won’t see any screen tearing or stuttering with the Samsung Odyssey OLED G9 gaming monitor. Samsung’s Glare Free technology, meanwhile, will eliminate all the distractions caused by glare from external light sources, so you can focus on the worlds you’re exploring in your video games. The monitor even has a thermal modulation system that automatically reduces brightness to manage heat levels.

In one of the most attractive Samsung monitor deals that we’ve recently come across, the 49-inch Samsung Odyssey OLED G9 gaming monitor is on sale with a $900 discount that almost halves its price from $2,200 to $1,300. It’s still pretty expensive for a screen, but it’s what you need to give justice to the capabilities of your upgraded gaming desktop. You’re going to have to be quick in completing your transaction though, as we’re not sure if these savings on the 49-inch Samsung Odyssey OLED G9 gaming monitor will still be available tomorrow.

I let Radial menu take over my Mac, and I’m never going back
One mouse jiggle, endless shortcuts. My Mac has never felt this fast.
Radial app running on Mac

I have been testing Radial for the past week, and it's quickly become one of those apps I didn’t know how I could live without. It's a radial menu for macOS that puts your shortcuts, scripts, and automations right where your cursor is, so you never have to go hunting through menus to find what you need.

The app just received its 5.0 update, adding AI actions powered by Claude, window layouts, variables, a redesigned settings interface, a new Atmosphere background effect, and a squircle menu shape. I got to try most of these, and here's what I found.

The two organizations say most parents have no idea this is happening. Criminals no longer need to contact a child directly to generate such material. They can scrape an ordinary photo and run it through widely available nudify apps.
