    Samsung is not only known for making great displays for smartphones, the South Korean giant also makes some of the best gaming monitors. 
    I recently got the opportunity to use the G7 Odyssey with my setup and it was my first time using a curved monitor for my gaming needs. While many would say curved monitors are just a gimmick, I beg to differ. My experience with the monitor over the past three weeks has been nothing but exceptional, apart from a few hiccups. 
    I’ve been using the 32-inch 244Hz 1440p varmint of the odyssey lineup and here’s what I think about Samsung’s latest gaming monitor:  
    Design

    The design of the Odyssey G7 looks straight out of the future, especially when you look at it from the back. 

    The monitor’s 1000R curved display also makes it a bit harder to place on a PC table since it takes slightly more space than a traditional flat monitor. However, the stand takes an unusual amount of space.  
    The monitor is secured on the stand by using four screws instead of using a traditional VESA wall mount design. This way the panel is more secure as it does not clip on directly as it does on other monitors. 
    While it is a bit tedious to set it up the first time, it’s totally worth it.

    The curved display brings the ends of the display forward quite a bit; which means you will need to place the monitor towards the back end of the table. 

    If you plan to purchase the G7 Odyssey, make sure you have enough space for it as the panel does take quite a bit of real estate. Having said that, you can use the stand to tilt and adjust the height of the monitor according to your height and liking. 
    If you want to use it in portrait orientation, the stands let you do that as well.

    Finally, at the back, you will find the iconic Infinity Core lighting, which sort of works as backlighting and the bright display does not strain your eyes when using the monitor. 

    There are some lighting elements at the front as well, however, they are quite subtle and cannot be found easily with most viewing angles.  
    Ports & Features 
    The Samsung G7 Odyssey does not follow the industry standard when it comes to connectivity since it comes with two DP input ports, one HDMI 2.0 port, and a built-in two-port USB 3.0 hub. 
    I would have liked to see two HDMI ports instead of DP ports since you can connect two of other devices such as the PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X, Nintendo Switch or a media player.

    In order to operate the monitor, there is a directional knob which you can use to access most of the menus. The knob can also be clicked to select different modes and make changes to the picture according to your liking. 

    The monitor also supports PiP mode which you can access from the menus, a feature most monitors tend to ignore even in 2021.

    The menus have quite a few features you can mess around with such as setting the refresh rate, response time and toggle the adaptive sync. I used the monitor in 240Hz with 1ms latency most of the time since we primarily used it for gaming on my PC and the PlayStation 5.  

    Another feature I loved was the ability to change the black colours on the monitor. 
    Samsung calls it the black equaliser where you can adjust how dark the picture should look. I preferred to use the black equaliser on value '9' as it was the perfect balance between all the colours for multiplayer games. 
    Having the display too dark can be disadvantages in games like Call of Duty Warzone since you would like to spot everything you can. For single-player games, you can turn the black equaliser number to '11' if you want a more immersive experience.  
    Display Quality & Performance  
    The G7 Odyssey has a resolution of 2,560 x 1,440 pixels and uses a VA panel instead of IPS LCD. While I’m not a huge fan of VA panels, the G7 Odyssey uses one of the highest quality VA panels we’ve seen on a monitor yet. 
    Having said that, VA panels also allow the monitor to support the 240Hz refresh rate which is probably the reason why most people will buy this monitor.

    The display also supports HDR600, however, in our experience, the HDR performance was not up to the mark. You will lose quite a bit of brightness if you use the display in HDR mode.

    It looks like Sunny Singh is all set for 2021, finally. 
    Recently, Sunny Singh posted a series of pictures from a never-seen-before photoshoot where he looked his best, drenched in sweat in a white shirt. 
    He followed the pictures with the caption, "2021: I am ready!" and we can only wonder what he means by that. 
    Take a look at his post right here:

    Sunny Singh has an upcoming film project scheduled for the coming year, and presently, he's going to be busy shooting for Om Raut's Adipurush which will also star Saif Ali Khan. 
    This is perhaps why he's also stepping out more to go to shoot locations and events, now that things are as close to going back to normal as they could get. 
    With active social media accounts, he's gained a sizeable following on the internet after regularly showing more of his life to his followers.

    Sunny Singh has acted in massive hits like Pyaar Ka Punchnama, Ujda Chaman, and Sonu Ki Titu Ki Sweety and he is currently diversifying his talents and trying his hand at different genres of films. 
    Even on the style front, his outfits have always given a tough competition to his fellow actors and he also always steps up to the challenge of wearing trends in exciting ways. 
    For instance, a recent outfit of his had us intrigued about his current style aesthetic.

    When it comes to pushing the fast charging technology, Samsung isn't the name that probably comes to your mind. Yes, they have introduced a 45W tech for some of its phones but they're still way behind the competitors who have now touched even 100W.
    But if the new reports are something to go by, then it looks like they will soon be coming up with their fastest smartphone charger to date. According to a recent TUV listing that was spotted by MySmartPrice, it appears that Samsung is going to launch a fast charger very soon.

    This unit, bearing the model number EP-TA865 was first spotted in Korea in September 2020. Supporting 20 volts at 3.25 amps, it would allow the charger to hit 65W with supported devices. This would make it Samsung's fastest charger to date.

    That being said, it will still not be the fastest charger out there on the market. As we mentioned earlier, there are manufacturers who have already made faster-charging solutions. Manufacturers like Oppo and Realme have announced 100W+ charging tech as well, and they'll joining the likes of Xiaomi to push this incredible tech forward.
    So Samsung's solution does look a little weak in front of them. But we're glad that it's finally coming. Samsung makes some of the best flagship phones out there and having great charging speeds will make them all the more valuable.

    It's also worth pointing out that we don't know when this charger will come out. However, we're sure Samsung will charge a good chunk of money for it when it does. After all, they don't bundle chargers anymore with their devices, at least the premium ones. So, it'll be interesting to see how much it'll cost.

    We really hope Samsung also manages to innovate and come up with their own version of a new charging solution like Xiaomi has done with the truly wireless charging experience. It'll be great to have these innovative options around to see and have the best possible solution available to us. They'll be expensive at first, but we certainly more innovation to make the smartphone market more interesting.

    The title is pretty evident and if you clicked while crooning to Brown Munde just like I am playing it in the background as I type this, then here are 10 recommendations that might have missed your radar and are perfect for that evening ‘gedi’ with yaar dost:
    1.   Excuses
    AP Dhillon is that new dude on the block who is making waves across the globe with his ‘desi’ hit Brown Munde. His new release Excuses is about a dude explaining a girl how heartbreak will feel like once she experiences it. While he’s as it, he’s ensured there’s some dope music added to the lyrics which is perfect for a long drive.

    2.   Riri
    Trust Diljt to win hearts like his name, literally. The Punjabi king, who has taken the nation by storm by extending his support to the farmers' protest and has taken upon him the responsibility to impart moral lessons to a certain Bollywood actress, has come up with another track for international pop queen, Rihanaa. Only Diljit can talk about buying Punjabi ‘jutti’ and ‘salwar kameez’ for miss Fenty, and make a chartbuster out of it.

    3.    Hukam
    Karan Aujla is back with another musical banger which has touched over 18 million views in less than 4 days. The music video is also pretty cool, like all his musical outings.

    4.   Mexico Koka
    Another Aujla track on our list which is not as fresh as baked bread from last night, but then a little more Karan Aujla hurt no one. This one has a different vibe and a feel to it.

    5.    Dooja Pyaar
    The magical voice behind everyone’s favourite Khwaab, Akhil is back with another song laced with emotions. This one is about second love and the whole nuances around the experience.

    6.   Titliaan Warga
    This one is here only because it must be on our Punjabi list for the beginning of the year. Last year’s crazy hit’s sequel sung by Hardy Sandhu and penned by the prodigal Jaani is still ruling all charts and playlists.

    7.    Kadi Te Hans
    I guess if a legend like Atif Aslam even records his musical breathing, it will end up on our lists permanently. So when he took a classic number and gave it a twist of his own, it obviously had to go viral and also find a top spot on our ‘gedi’ list.

    8.   Pagal Nahi Hona
    The Mummy Nu Pasand singer, the gorgeous Sunanda Sharma’s new song starring Sonu Sood is a nice background score for some evening ‘car-o-baar’ outing.

    9.   Possessive
    Every once in a while, a song releases about the girlfriend either being possessive or demanding a ‘lehenga’. No idea why the writers are so obsessed with these demanding songs but this one has the melodious voice of Raashi Sood which is soothing.

    10.   Just A Dream
    This one is a great addition to your list in case you still haven’t managed to listen to this one. Sung by Prem Dhillon, this is stamped by Sidhu Moosewala himself .
