Don’t believe me? Here’s the store page for the Odyssey G9 QD-OLED. This BOGO offer is the real deal. 

Along with a ton of screen real estate, the Odyssey QD-OLED G9 features 1440p resolution, a 240Hz refresh rate, and a 0.03ms response time for buttery smooth action and near-instant reactions to your inputs. With support for AMD FreeSync Premium Pro VRR, you’ll get less screen tearing and stuttering that can ruin immersion or put you at a disadvantage during online matches. 

With a picture-in-picture mode, you can view video from two sources simultaneously, creating a dual-monitor setup on a single screen. A built-in eye saver mode reduces screen flickering and blue light to help avoid eye strain during long work hours or marathon gaming sessions.

The 32-inch Samsung M70D smart monitor is more suited to office work and web browsing than it is for gaming. Though it provides 4K resolution, the 60Hz refresh rate and 4ms response time pale in comparison to the QD-OLED G9. But if you’re like me and have your PC pull double-duty as both your work computer and gaming rig, you can set up the M70D as a dedicated work screen for handling everything from spreadsheets to video calls while using the Odyssey QD-OLED G9’s picture-in-picture capabilities for gaming, streaming, and chat. And with the M70D’s smart screen capabilities, it can pull triple duty as a TV with support for popular streaming apps, making it a perfect option for dorm rooms and apartments where you might not have enough space for both a computer and TV.

How I rated this deal 

The $900 discount on the Odyssey QD-OLED G9 alone is an excellent deal on a high-end, ultra-wide gaming monitor, and including a free second screen just sweetens the deal even more. That’s why I’ve bumped this offer to a 5/5 Editor’s deal rating. Such BOGO deals are a rare find, especially directly from brands like Samsung, and you’ll be hard-pressed to find a better bundle or discount on name-brand monitors for gaming or productivity.
