I’ve learned the hard way that there’s only one decent Samsung product line - from big appliances to little electronics - and it’s their phones (and even those leave questions on privacy).
That’s funny, while I still buy Samsung TVs, I hate their phones. So much of what their phones can do is usually locked to only working in Samsung’s apps and those are universally dog shit. The phones themselves are also often privacy and user control nightmares.
Granted, there isn’t a lot of good choices for phones these days. I’m still running an old LG phone and have been looking outside Android as my next possible solution. But, I also haven’t had a reason to upgrade.
Turn off all of the Energy Saving/Eco Solution crap. It will stop turning off and you will get s brighter inage that doesn’t shift in brightness.
You should also switch to Movie mode in the picture settings and set dejudder/deblur (under Motion Clarity) to 0 while you’re at it so it doesn’t turn everything into 60 fps with fake frames.
Their SSDs are/were considered amongst the best options, but I haven’t looked into them since the 970 Evo days and they could be crap now for all I know.
It’s an MSI but now looking at pictures ofequivalent samsung odysseys it might very well be the same monitor with a different sticker on the back.
And yes, it turns off, the PC doesn’t see a monitor so it doesn’t send a signal, and the monitor doesn’t turn on either because it’s not receiving any signal.
Afaik it’s a displayport issue (because DP has the feature to detect if PC is on). I’ve had the issue on multiple monitors that it wouldn’t turn on the next time I booted the PC. After a lot of unsuccessful googling I finally found that the pc off-> monitor off -> pc on-> pc doesn’t see monitor -> monitor stays off apparently happens because of a capacitor not discharging properly, getting the monitor stuck in “pc off” state. Flipping the monitor power switch (or disconnecting the power cable) for 15-20 seconds has so far always fixed it for me.
I’m not saying that’s not the case, but it has both hdmi and displayport, and it’s happening with both, had it on either one, alternating, both plugged in, nothing plugged in and then jamming either cable in there as stuff was powering on, I did eventually resign myself to having to yank out the power cable and plug it back in when it was misbehaving. Nowadays it’s just sitting in a corner, seldom used, should honestly toss it but it’s still sorta works, when it feels like it.
Let me guess, samsung odyssey? Had one of those, never again.
Friend even called me that he has fucked up his pc rebuild - his Samsung monitor was just not waking up because it literally turns off.
All modern monitors are like this now. Dell, HP, Asus…
Doesn’t detect input? Instant power off. Now you have to press the menu key every 5 seconds to try and find the input for your PC.
Beyond ridiculous. I have a Dell that’s like 15 years old and it stays on for multiple minutes before going into power saving. It’s glorious

Have a Samsung TV and it’s by far my least favorite. Turns off at random, takes forever to switch inputs, turns on at random…
As for phones I’m eyeing the Motorola RazrFold, since they’re supposedly offering it Graphene-ready

I heard Samsung’s SD cards are good

Only SD card I’ve ever had die. I go with sandisk for important SD cards and team group for less important ones. Neither have ever failed.

REISUB time when that happens.
Had the same behaviour with an acer monitor, that shit definitely flows from the same factory

But maybe there are other reasons too.
