Samsung Ultrawide Gaming Monitor Is Only $229 In Walmart’s Early Black Friday Sale

November is a great month to look at upgrading your gaming setup, and right now, Walmart has an incredible Black Friday deal on the Samsung Odyssey G5 34-Inch Ultrawide Gaming Monitor. Normally $549, you can get this great display for only $229 until November 17–or until it sells out, which is likely to happen before the sale ends.

This Samsung Odyssey gaming monitor deal is one of numerous notable tech discounts in Walmart’s early Black Friday sale. The sale kicked off today, November 11, and runs through November 17. If you’re looking at this prior to 2 PM PT / 5 PM ET on November 11, you need to be a Walmart+ subscriber–annual memberships are 50% off–to take advantage of the deals. Everyone can start shopping Walmart’s early Black Friday sale after that time.

• 3440 x 1440 resolution
• 16:9 aspect ratio

This particular Samsung Odyssey G5 monitor offers 3440 x 1440 resolution, a 165Hz refresh rate, VRR, and a 1ms response time. It’s also curved to create a more immersive field of view that also helps reduce strain on your eyes throughout long gaming and work sessions. It’s also equipped with AMD FreeSync to prevent any nasty screen-tearing in your games. Color accuracy is also great thanks to HDR10, so you’re going to get vibrant colors and deep blacks.

A 34-inch Samsung Odyssey G5 monitor for $229 is quite the bargain, but if you don’t want an ultrawide, Walmart has an Odyssey G5 27-inch model for $179 (was $249).
