Amazon now offers its new 55-inch Odyssey Ark 2nd Gen Gaming Monitor for $1,902.89 shipped. This is a new all-time low from its usual $3,000 price tag. We last saw this model at $1,962, and now today’s offer is an extra $59 off in order to save you a total of $1,097. As Samsung’s most impressive gaming monitor to date, the new Odyssey Ark stands apart from everything else on the market with a curved 55-inch 4K panel and some other upgrades over the original model that we explore below.
The new 2nd Gen Samsung Odyssey Ark takes everything that made the first version stick out with an eye-catching release and takes it up a notch. It comes backed by mini-LED tech and a 165Hz refresh rate, with a rotating design that can position all of the pixels into a vertical orientation. It sports a unique Ark Dial control pad, and pairs with three HDMI ports as well as a DisplayPort input, and four Dolby Atmos-backed corner speakers.
New this time around though is its multi-view features. There’s the same amount of inputs as before, but now you can leverage all 55 inches of screen real estate towards showing off more than one source. It can do more than just showing those different inputs, too. Samsung also employs a built-in KVM that lets you actually control multiple systems from the same input. This function only works with multiple PCs, excluding consoles from the fun. Plus, the Samsung Gaming Hub feature is baked in for accessing streaming services, cloud gaming titles, and more right from the monitor.
