If you’ve been waiting for a chance to get the biggest, most ridiculous OLED gaming monitor for the lowest possible price, this might be it. Right now, you can get an “open-box” 49-inch ultrawide OLED from Samsung for just $700 on eBay. That’s over $1,000 off the original retail price and $300 off the lowest price I can find for this model new.
This is an open-box item being sold by an eBay seller, so I can see why that might be a deal-breaker. But the seller has good reviews and the purchase comes with a one-year Allstate warranty, which is a lot more than you usually get with a refurbished or open-box unit from any retailer. It’s “eBay certified” for quality with a money back guarantee, too.
This is the G91SD version of the monitor, which isn’t the latest, and though it has USB-C ports it doesn’t support USB-C video or laptop charging, so this big fella is for desktop PC gamers. And even though 144Hz isn’t the fastest available even at this size, you’ll still need a beefy machine to max it out at the 5120×1440 resolution, which is basically two 1440p monitors smooshed together on one massive curved panel.
This display is pretty heavy at 19.4 pounds, so if you want to use a VESA monitor stand with it, make sure it can handle the weight. If you’re looking for something a little newer or cheaper, be sure to check out PCWorld’s best picks for gaming monitors.
