AH Real Deal: Save $1,200 on Samsung's huge Odyssey Ark monitor
by Justin Diaz · Android HeadlinesSamsung’s Odyssey Ark is perhaps one of the most impressive gaming monitors out there, and right now Samsung is utterly obliterating its price tag by giving consumers a $1,200 discount. At its full retail price, this 55-inch behemoth of a gaming monitor normally costs $2,999.99, but Samsung has brought the price down to $1,799.99. If you have the space and you want your games to look better than ever, then don’t skip the opportunity to pick this up for much cheaper than usual.
Not to mention, this would make an excellent holiday gift for the gamer in your life. Since this is a gaming monitor there are several gaming features. But you can of course use this for more than just gaming. Because of its size and versatile design, you could easily use this for more productive work. At 55 inches you have plenty of space to fit all kinds of windows on screen at once.
You could also split the monitor up into separate monitors. As the Odyssey Ark has a feature that allows you to divide the screen space in a way that mimics having multiple smaller monitors. This is also great for gaming. As you can dedicate one of the smaller monitor portions to your game, while having videos or guides up on others.
There’s also the Cockpit Mode which turns the monitor vertical, and the refresh rate is 165Hz. Another really neat feature is the Sound Dome technology. Samsung integrated four speakers with one being in each corner, and two woofers in the center to envelope you in sound. So there’s no real need to buy a soundbar or speaker system. This is the ultimate gaming monitor at an incredible price. If you have the means definitely pick it up.
