Samsung has announced its new lineup of Odyssey gaming monitors, including the Odyssey 3D, Odyssey OLED G8, and the Odyssey G9. Samsung is also introducing the new ViewFinity S8, a 37-inch 4K monitor.

The star of the show is the Odyssey 3D (G90XF), a 27-inch gaming monitor which uses glassless 3D, something Samsung has showcased earlier at CES 2025. The monitor has a 4K panel with a 165Hz refresh rate and will support both AMD FreeSync Premium and NVIDIA G-Sync. Samsung is partnering with Nexon for The First Berserker: Khazan, which launches on March 28th, and Neowiz's Lies of P games.

The Odyssey OLED G8, according to Samsung, features the highest pixel density on a 27-inch screen. To be available in 27- and 32-inch modes, it adds up to 166 ppi on the 27-inch screen. This is also the first 4K monitor with a 240Hz refresh rate, according to Samsung. It supports VESA DisplayHDR TrueBlack 400, 240Hz refresh rate, AMD FreeSync Premium Pro and NVIDIA G-SYNC Compatible, .03ms response time, and more.
