Best Buy cuts $750 from Samsung’s 49-inch Odyssey OLED G9, dropping the 240Hz monitor below $1,000
A 49-inch Samsung Odyssey OLED G9 gaming monitor is down to $949.99 at Best Buy in an early Black Friday deal. That is $750 below the retailer’s displayed $1,699.99 comparable value for the silver G93SD.
The discounted LS49DG934SNXGO combines a curved OLED panel with a 5120 × 1440 resolution and up to 240Hz refresh rate. Its 32:9 screen is as wide in pixels as two 2560 × 1440 displays placed side by side, without a bezel between them.
Best Buy showed a new monitor sold by Best Buy with pickup available at its Aiea, Hawaii store when checked. Delivery there was listed at $39.99, so the final cost can depend on location and fulfilment choice. Open-box options appear separately.

The OLED G9 puts a 240Hz display across a 49-inch screen
The wide screen is attractive for racing games and flight simulators that support an ultrawide view, and it can also leave room for several windows at once. Not every game supports 32:9, so some titles may display black bars or require a narrower resolution.
Samsung lists G-SYNC compatibility and AMD FreeSync Premium Pro for variable refresh rates. The panel can refresh at up to 240Hz, though reaching that rate in a game also depends on the PC, connection and graphics settings.
The screen uses a 1800R curve and a glare-reducing finish. Samsung quotes a 0.03ms grey-to-grey response time under its test conditions; that figure is a pixel transition measurement, not a promise of system-wide input latency.

Check desk space and connections before ordering
At approximately 47 inches wide, the display needs substantially more desk space than a typical 27-inch monitor. Best Buy lists a height-adjustable stand and 100 × 100mm VESA mounting support for a compatible arm.
The monitor has DisplayPort 1.4, HDMI 2.1 and Micro HDMI, plus USB connections. Check the outputs on your graphics card and the display settings if you want to use the panel at its full resolution and refresh rate.
The $750 reduction compares Best Buy’s current price with its displayed comparable value, not a verified historical low. Check the current price, selected condition, shipping cost and return terms before buying; other Odyssey OLED G9 models have different features and specifications.
