I was actually anticipating Samsung to go larger with its OLED video gaming monitors this year. Not so, at least not. Rather, the business is concentrating on blazing-fast speed.
Like MSI and Asus formerly revealed, Samsung has brand-new offerings that can strike as much as 500Hz of refresh. There’s likewise a brand-new 27-inch 4K panel, if you’re more thinking about high-res gameplay.

The latest Odyssey OLED G8 is the headliner, flaunting a 4K OLED panel in a fairly little kind element of 27 inches. That makes the G81SF suitable for a desktop with a great deal of power and not a great deal of area. At “simply” 240Hz, it isn’t the fastest thing around, though it ought to still be more than appropriate sufficient for all however the most requiring of esports enthusiasts.
For stated enthusiasts, there’s the OLED G6 (G60SF, in the header image). Utilizing the very same 27-inch 2560 × 1440 panel as MSI and Asus exposed previously todayit’s striking an extraordinary 500Hz. That’s the type of pixel-pushing power that just the most effective video gaming PCs on the marketplace can handle, a minimum of with the most recent 3D video games. Other highlights consist of 0.03 ms action time and assistance for the greatest levels of AMD FreeSync and Nvidia G-Sync.
Samsung is likewise flaunting the ViewFinity S8, a larger-format 37-inch display with a 4K resolution. This one’s absolutely more of an all-rounder than a video gaming screen, with an accreditation from Germany’s TÜV Rheinland for “Ergonomic Workspace Display.” It likewise loads an integrated KVM switch, 90 watts of charging over USB-C, and numerous choices for eye tiredness decrease.

Samsung wheeled out its newest effort at glasses-free 3D, however this is something we’ve seen before, particularly last SeptemberStrangely, for this pre-CES press push, the business is just discussing the 27-inch (G90XF) design, which utilizes front-facing stereo video cameras to change its lenticular screen for the user’s eyes. The display can “evaluate and transform 2D video into 3D” utilizing AI, something that wasn’t in journalism release in 2015. We’ll see if this one makes it out to customers.
As Samsung is wont to do, none of the brand-new screens have rates or release dates readily available at the minute.
