Is $149.99 a Good Price for the Samsung Odyssey G5 27" Gaming Monitor?
August 23, 2026 · By MT
The Samsung Odyssey G5 (G51F) 27" QHD monitor has been tracked since April 2026. Today’s $149.99 matches the all-time low, $72.70 below the 4-month average of $222.69. Here’s the full record.
A price that ties its own floor
The Samsung Odyssey G5 (G51F) 27" QHD gaming monitor is listed today at $149.99, 32% off its $221.99 list price. Amazon has tracked this exact ASIN since April 2026, four months of pricing on the same product. That record confirms today’s number isn’t just a good discount on paper.
The price-history record
The tracked Amazon pricing on this ASIN, since monitoring began:
- Tracking began roughly 4 months ago, in April 2026
- All-time high: $249.99, recorded June 18, 2026
- All-time low: $149.99, first recorded June 23, 2026
- 4-month average price: $222.69
- Current price: $149.99, matching the all-time low
What the pattern tells you
Today’s $149.99 sits $72.70 below the 4-month average and $100 below the tracked high. It also matches the lowest price this exact ASIN has ever recorded, first hit in June and holding again now. The price sat in the $220-$250 range for most of the tracked period; this level has only shown up twice, once in June and again this month.
The third-party wrinkle: new costs more than Amazon’s price
Third-party new listings on Amazon are currently running $219.85 to $222.00, averaging $221.11 over the tracked period, well above Amazon’s own $149.99. That’s backwards from the usual pattern, where third-party sellers undercut Amazon. Third-party used listings do go lower, averaging $179.59 with a low of $139.00 recorded in July, but a used monitor carries no guarantee on panel condition or dead pixels, the two things that matter most on a display. At $149.99, Amazon’s own price beats every other option here, new or used.
The catch with any price-history read
Four months of tracking is a real record, not a guess, but it’s a shorter window than some price-history posts on this site cover. A price floor hit twice in four months is a strong signal, not a certainty; nothing here rules out a lower price appearing later, it just confirms nothing has gone there yet in the time Amazon has tracked this listing.
Before you buy
The data makes the case directly: $149.99 ties the all-time low, undercuts every third-party option including used units, and sits nearly $73 under the 4-month average.
