On Sale Odyssey OLED G9 deal
Best Buy

A 49-inch OLED ultrawide is the kind of monitor you buy once and build your whole setup around. The Samsung 49-inch Odyssey OLED G9 (G93SD) is down to $999.99, saving you $700 off the $1,699.99 compared value. If you’ve wanted the “super ultrawide” experience but couldn’t justify the usual price, this discount is big enough to make it feel realistic, especially for anyone gaming at high refresh rates or using a single screen for work+play.

What you’re getting

This is a 49-inch curved OLED monitor with Dual-QHD resolution, 240Hz refresh rate, and a claimed 0.03ms response time. In real terms, you’re getting three major benefits at once:

  • OLED image quality: deep blacks and high contrast that make games and movies look dramatically better than typical IPS/VA panels.
  • Super ultrawide immersion: the Dual-QHD ultrawide format gives you a wraparound view in games and a massive workspace for multitasking.
  • Speed for competitive play: 240Hz is the kind of refresh rate you feel immediately in fast shooters and any game where motion clarity matters.

It’s also G-Sync compatible, which helps smooth out gameplay by reducing tearing and stutter when paired with an NVIDIA GPU.

Why it’s worth it

The value here is the scale of the discount relative to the kind of monitor this is. OLED ultrawides at 240Hz are typically premium-priced, so saving $700 moves it from “dream setup” to “this could actually be the upgrade.”

This is also one of those purchases that improves everything you do on your PC. For gaming, it’s more immersive and more responsive. For productivity, you can run two or three windows side by side without feeling cramped—like a dual-monitor setup without the bezel in the middle.

Two practical notes so expectations stay grounded:

  • You’ll want a capable GPU to take full advantage of 240Hz at this resolution in modern games.
  • Make sure your desk space and viewing distance can handle a 49-inch super ultrawide—it’s a lot of screen.

The bottom line

At $999.99, this Samsung Odyssey OLED G9 is a really good value if you want a high-end, 49-inch OLED ultrawide with 240Hz speed for immersive gaming and a huge productivity workspace. If you’re on a smaller desk, use a midrange GPU, or don’t care about ultrawide gaming, you can spend less and still be happy. But if you’ve been waiting for a major price drop on a flagship-class OLED ultrawide, this is the kind of deal that doesn’t show up often.

Microsoft has begun rolling out Copilot Code for building apps with natural language
The workplace-focused vibe coding tool can pull context from emails, documents, meetings, and chats.

Microsoft introduced Code last month as one of the three core parts of its revamped Copilot app. The app was pitched as an easy-to-use coding agent that lets users describe what they want to build in natural language, like an app, a tracker, a dashboard, an automation, or a workflow, and Copilot would build it for them.

Essentially, it's a workplace-focused vibe-coding app that turns existing work into a functional app, and Microsoft has begun rolling it out through the Frontier program.

AI agents are acting like rogues and causing a huge headache for US banks
US banks block AI agents over fears they could make unauthorised financial moves
Banking

US banks are facing a new kind of digital headache: artificial intelligence agents attempting to access customer accounts and perform actions that may go beyond what users intended. As AI tools become more capable of navigating websites and carrying out tasks independently, financial institutions are scrambling to prevent them from crossing security boundaries.

According to a report published by Axios on October 22, major US banks have detected third-party AI agents operating inside customer accounts without authorisation. Some agents reportedly appeared to attempt actions independently of user instructions. The banks involved have not publicly detailed every incident, and there is no evidence that the reported activity resulted in widespread theft of customer funds.

Canva enters the AI image generation race with Craft, and it’s thinking beyond pretty pictures
The new model plans layouts before generating images, with precise editing and support for 30 aspect ratios.
Canva Craft Featured Image

AI can generate all kinds of pretty pictures, but getting it to spell a headline correctly or keep a poster's layout intact can be another story. Canva wants to fix that with Canva Craft, its first in-house image generation model. Rather than focusing primarily on photographs, Craft is designed around the posters, presentations, social media graphics, and other visual content people actually create. The goal is simple: spend less time fixing AI's mistakes and more time making something useful.
