The first 27-inch 4K gaming OLED monitor is here courtesy of Samsung

Before the the official start of CESSamsung has announced a trio of new Odyssey gaming monitors. Of the group, the G81SF is the most interesting. Samsung says it’s the first 4K, 27-inch OLED gaming monitor. The panel features a 240Hz refresh rate and 0.03ms gray-to-gray pixel response time.

At 4K and 27 inches, the pixel density is 165 pixels per inch, which means the G81SF should produce an incredibly sharp image. With Samsung being the main QD-OLED supplier, the G81SF’s panel will almost certainly make its way into other gaming monitors released this year. With CES 2025 about to begin, some of these may still be announced sometime in the next few days.

If you don’t want to sacrifice motion clarity for sharpness, Samsung has you covered there, too. The second new Odyssey gaming monitor the company announced, the G60SF, features a 500Hz refresh rate. Resolution is limited to 2,560 x 1,440 on this model, but both the G6 and G8 described above will offer VESA True Black 400-certified HDR performance, so the G60SF will be great for single-player gaming and exceptional for racing titles like Overwatch 2 and Evaluationthanks to the 500Hz refresh rate.

Rounding out the new Odyssey monitors announced by Samsung today is something of a curiosity and throwback to CES. The 27-inch G90XF has a lenticular lens attached to the front of the panel and a stereo camera, meaning you can use it to watch 3D content without wearing 3D glasses. The G90XF includes AI software that Samsung says can convert 2D video to 3D, but if we had to guess, the resulting footage won’t look great.

If you use your computer primarily for productivity, Samsung hasn’t forgotten you, and the company’s new offerings here are no less interesting. First, there’s the Smart Monitor M9 (M90SF). It features a 32-inch 4K OLED panel that offers True Black 400 HDR performance. It also comes with Samsung’s space-saving stand for easy setup, but what sets the M90SF apart from all the other monitors Samsung announced today are a few AI features that come with it. The first, called AI Picture Optimizer, analyzes input from your PC to automatically adjust the M9’s display settings to produce the best possible image for the content you’re consuming, be it a game, movie or productivity app. The other feature can upscale lower resolution content to 4K.

Finally, there’s the ViewFinity S8. It’s not OLED, but at 37 inches, it’s the largest 16:9 4K monitor Samsung has ever offered. It offers 99 percent sRGB color gamut coverage, a built-in KVM switch, and a 90W USB-C power supply. It’s not the most exciting monitor in Samsung’s new lineup, but it should appeal to design professionals who want the biggest screen possible but prefer not to deal with the line distortion caused by an ultrawide screen.

Samsung did not share pricing or availability information for any of the monitors it announced today. Expect those details to come sometime after CES.
