In a world where Brooklyn teen Miles Morales (voiced by Shameik Moore) got that fateful radioactive spider bite-and the mantle of Spider-Man-the use of a particle accelerator by the Kingpin (Liev Schreiber) is causing existence to fissure. As alternate-dimension Spideys like Peter Parker (Jake Johnson), Gwen Stacy (Hailee Steinfeld), Spider-Man Noir (Nicolas Cage), and Spider-Ham (John Mulaney) pile into his reality, can they help Miles undo the chaos? Oscar-winning animated effort also stars the voices of Mahershala Ali, Brian Tyree Henry. 117 min. Widescreen; Soundtrack English.

Great Monitor for Gamers
BySryche
Fast 2-Day shipping from Best Buy (California to DC). Upgraded from an ASUS 144hz MG278Q and am blown away with the visuals in game (Mostly playing COD: Warzone/Apex Legends). Objects in-game are super realistic looking, partly due to the nice inky blacks this monitor offers. Colors do take a bit of tweaking out of the box (IMO), but I have currently settled on: Source: Displayport Cable (use Displayport Ver. 1.4 for HDR) Picture Mode: Custom Black Equalizer: 13 Freesync: ON (running a Radeon RX 5700XT) Brightness: 60 Contrast: 75 Sharpness: 64
Be aware that turning on the HDR option in windows will make the picture look terrible. From what I've read it's worth turning on only when viewing HDR specific video (i.e. Youtube). Games seem to automatically pick up the HDR feature on the monitor without having the Windows option turned on from what I can tell.
Assembly was pretty straight forward except I'm a "tweaker" so I decided to leave off the horizontal back plate cover for the monitor as it became very annoying to have to keep popping the plate off every time I wanted to add or take off a cable. However, stand has a very useful cable hideaway that runs vertically down for better cable management.
There is RGB lighting in the two front angled wings and in the back where there is a circular light around the mount area. The colors are adjustable via the OSD but it's a shame that you cannot sync it with Razer Synapse as all of my other peripherals are. Also, there does not seem to be a way to increase or change the brightness of the RGB's which is a bummer because they are actually pretty dim.
240hz is a game changer in my opinion and really does make a huge difference in twitch type shooters like COD or Apex where the game becomes buttery smooth.
Finally, this is my first curved monitor, and although I was apprehensive at first, I found the monitor very easy to get used to. It only took a couple of hours for me to almost not even notice the curve. When I do notice the curve, it's more in a 'this is so cool' way and not in a motion sickness or queasy way.

Do you experience the flickering issue the others are having? Thanks

HDMI no 4k with free sync on.
Bypreorder
In order to get 4k hdr via hdmi port, on this Samsung odyssey 27" curved g7 monitor you have to turn off the free sync feature .which means the refresh rate will only be 144 hz not full 240 hz. With free sync on via hdmi you get only 1080p. You only get the full 4k hdr with 240 hz with the display port input with free sync on.thinking of returning this and get the older one I had Samsung odyssey ghg7 which had 144hz max refresh rate.
