I think it's a strange argument to say that you don't give a guarantee on burn-ins if it's not going to happen anyway. Then you can also give the guarantee. The purpose is to "guarantee" the customer that the monitor will last. Especially with the reputation Samsung has with their gaming monitors regarding quality checks, I would be rather cautious with such statements. But thank you for sharing!
According to the data sheet for the LX mount, it can hold between 3.2kg and 11kg. And designed for up to 34 inches.
You could try it out, but at the same time there is a possibility that the tilt settings could cause problems.
The Ergotron HX is definitely designed for this. It can also support a Samsung G9 Neo LED without any problems.
Well, I can tell you that it's brutally bright^^ So even in energy-saving mode, you can see everything in full daylight without any problems. I'm already used to a lot with OLEDs, but this is next level
The monitor has a USB-C port, but this only functions as a USB hub and does not support video output. Therefore, you cannot connect your laptop via USB-C for image transfer. However, the monitor does offer functions such as Picture-in-Picture and Picture-by-Picture, which allow multiple screens to be displayed on a single display.
You can connect the monitor to a workstation via DisplayPort. However, there are no USB-C ports for docking stations, only USB-C as part of the USB ports. You may need a USB-C dock that is compatible with the existing USB ports or use a USB-C to USB adapter to use it with the integrated USB hub.
Yes, you can attach the Vesa adapter from the Samsung to the Oplite rails.
But I would recommend the 57", especially if you are coming from Tripplescreen. Unless you only play armoured personnel carrier simulator. 😉
The Samsung Odyssey OLED G9 cannot be operated directly via USB-C with Thunderbolt 3 or 4. The USB-C ports are mainly intended for data transfer. DisplayPort or HDMI can be used for the display.
To use these ports, connect your PC to the “PC” USB port, and peripherals can be used on the other ports (including the “service” port).
The manual explains this on page 21: https://downloadcenter.samsung.com/content/UM/202411/20241102033835001/BN81-26440A-01_WUG_G95NC%20G93SC%20G93SD%20G91SD_EU_ENG_241007.0.pdf
PLEASE ATTENTION
Do not update to version 1402.6, it will brick the monitor in an unreversible way, causing blackscreens that will last until the cable is unplug.
They broke something with the G-Synch that causes this.
I'm not alone, in the Samsung forum multiple people are having the same experience and so far the Samsung support has refused to help.
You can check the discussion here:

Yes, you can use the monitor with the PS5 Pro and the Xbox Series X. The monitor supports HDMI 2.1, which enables connection to modern consoles. However, there are limitations with the PS5: it does not support 120 Hz at ultra-wide resolutions, and the image is displayed with black bars on the sides as ultra-wide gaming is not supported by the PS5. A 1080p resolution at 120 Hz is possible for the Xbox Series X, but this can also lead to display limitations. The monitor automatically recognises the PS5 and sets the input accordingly, but for optimum picture quality on consoles you should change the aspect ratio to 16:9 to avoid image distortion.
While the Samsung Odyssey OLED G9 - G95SC offers various display modes, there is no specific split mode that divides the screen into two separate screens to work with two PCs simultaneously. However, there are Picture-in-Picture (PiP) and Picture-by-Picture (PbP) functions that allow images from multiple devices to be displayed simultaneously, but not as two independent screens.
Regarding compatibility with Macs: There are known limitations to using this monitor with Macs, particularly due to the limitations of Macs' HDMI ports, which often only support up to 4K at 60 Hz. For optimal use with a Mac, a monitor with Thunderbolt compatibility would be a better choice.
Yes, it is possible to connect two computers to the same screen on the Samsung Odyssey OLED G9 - G95SC. Here's how you can do it:
- You can use PBP (Picture by Picture) mode to display images from two sources on the screen, but this will limit the view to a 50/50 split of the screen.
- Alternatively, you can use PIP (Picture in Picture) mode to superimpose one image over the other. With PIP mode, you can adjust the size and position of the window of the second source, but you will not be able to divide the screen asymmetrically (for example, 1/3 for one PC and 2/3 for the other).
Yes, it is possible to connect two PCs to the Samsung Odyssey OLED G9 screen and display images from both computers on the same screen.
- You can use PBP (Picture by Picture) mode to display both sources on the screen, but this will limit the configuration to a screen split into two equal parts (50/50).
- Alternatively, you can use PIP (Picture in Picture) mode, which provides a floating window for one of the sources, allowing some customisation of the size and position of the window, although this does not allow the screen to be split arbitrarily.
