Attention all Malaysian gamers! Wouldn’t you like to experience gaming on a big screen?
In response to popular demand, Samsung has just recently released Odyssey Ark in the Southeast Asia and Oceania region, including Malaysia, at the Display Tech Summit held in Bangkok earlier this week. As the world's first 55-inch 1000R curved gaming screen, the Odessey Ark adds a completely new form factor to the industry-leading Odyssey lineup.
So what can you expect from this huge display? It delivers a 165Hz refresh rate, 1ms response time (GtG), plus an all-new Cockpit Mode and an exclusive controller, the Ark Dial - offering the ultimate window into the world of gaming with unparalleled immersion.
The Odyssey Ark is groundbreaking and built to deliver an incredible cinematic experience, superior gaming performance and an interface that offers completely optimized flexibility. At its original unveiling at the Consumer Electronics Show earlier this year, the Odyssey Ark was recognised as a CES Innovation Award Honoree.
A New Cinematic Experience That Appeal To The Senses
Feel immersed with the large 55-inch screen that wraps around your field of view thanks to its 1000R curvature, filling your peripheral vision.
This experience is further emphasized by Cockpit Mode, which enables the screen to rotate with HAS (Height Adjustable Stand), tilt and pivot functionality for an optimal screen environment.
Using Quantum Mini LEDs, the Odyssey Ark brings Samsung’s Quantum Matrix Technology to the front, enabled by ultra-fine and precise control of the densely packed LEDs. With newly added 14-bit processing and sophisticated lighting control technology, gamers see both dark and bright scenes, including 16,384 black levels for ultra-realistic graphics.
Additionally, its million-to-one static contrast ratio brings out even the most subtle details with perfect clarity. Taking content quality to new heights is the Neural Quantum Processor Ultra, which uses data generated from 20 neural networks to enhance every visual detail, upscaling content to up to 4K resolution.
Up the cinematic experience even more with the Odyssey Ark’s leverage of Samsung's Matte Display and Sound Dome Technology.
Providing both anti-glare and anti-reflection protection, the Matte Display minimizes distractions and keeps users focused on the content in front of them.
Enhance your sound experience with the introduction of ‘Sound Dome Tech’, which features Al Sound Booster and Dolby Atmos for more magnificent sounds. The Odyssey Ark comes equipped with 4 speakers, one at each corner, and two central woofers, resulting in realistic and rich sound thanks to a 60W 2.2.2 channel with the lowest 45Hz notes of any gaming screen or gaming soundbar.
Superior Gaming Performance Optimized For Players
Aside from the 165H2 refresh rate, the Odyssey Ark also brings together a 4K (3,840 x 2,160) resolution featuring 1ms response time (GtG) with AMD FreeSync Premium Pro, maximizing on-screen accuracy and giving gamers a competitive edge in fast-moving environments.
It also delivers powerful gaming performance and enables gamers to experience the best of gaming in one place with Samsung Gaming Hub, an all-in-one game streaming discovery platform, where players can discover and enjoy games they love from partners such as Xbox, NVIDIA GeForce NOW, Google Stadia, Utomik and Amazon Luna.
The Samsung Gaming Hub allows instant access to top streaming services, as well as popular console and PC games. Explore every corner of the gaming world without limitations, as there are no downloads or storage space requirements.
Flexible Interface To Find The Perfect Settings for Victory
The Odyssey Ark provides gamers with a range of innovative features that allow them to adjust the screen size, position, and ratio for an optimal gaming setup. One of these features is the Ark Dial, the exclusive controller for the Odyssey Ark. This solar-powered controller allows gamers to quickly and simply control a variety of settings, suitable for those who expect personalized and customizable gaming experiences.
Ark Dial’s features include:
- Flex Move Screen - allows users to adjust screen size between 55- and 27-inches, change the screen position and switch the screen ratio between 16:9, 21:9 and 32:9
- Multi-View - allows users to use the large screen to its full potential by displaying up to four screens all at once while horizontal, or three while in Cockpit Mode
- Game Bar - allows users to quickly view their gaming status and control important settings, such as checking FPS (Frames Per Second), HDR (High Dynamic Range) and VRR (Variable Refresh Rate), without needing to leave the game screen
As well as being equipped with a solar panel, the Ark Dial can also be charged by a USB Type-C connection, eliminating the need for any disposable batteries.
The Samsung Odyssey Ark retails at RM 13,999 and is available for preorder on the Samsung online store.
