Samsung Unveil Their Exciting Line-up of New Odyssey Monitors for CES 2026

Share this content

Today Samsung have unveiled a wide range of new displays that will be on show at CES in January. This includes various “World’s first” announcements including a 6K resolution glasses-free 3D gaming monitor, a 1,040Hz gaming LCD, new 6K and 5K dual-mode monitors, and refreshed versions of their popular 27″ and 32″ QD-OLED monitors. All the info is included below that we have right now, and we will be on hand at CES to bring you all the latest news, updates and coverage.

Odyssey 3D G90XH: The World’s First 6K Glasses-Free 3D Gaming Monitor

Let’s start with their new glass-free 3D gaming monitor, the Odyssey G90XH. This is a 32″ sized IPS LCD screen with a high 6144 x 3456 “6K” resolution and a 165Hz refresh rate. This can be boosted further to 330Hz through a dual-mode function, when dropping the resolution to what Samsung have called a “3K” resolution. It’s not listed but half the native resolution would be an unusual 3072 x 1728, so we assume this is what they mean. There’s also a 1ms G2G response time spec

Powered by real-time eye tracking, the screen adjusts 3D depth and perspective in response to the viewer’s position, creating a layered sense of dimension for smooth, uninterrupted gameplay without the need for a headset. PC gamers can enjoy a high-quality expanded line-up of supported titles with optimised 3D effects developed in collaboration with game studios. Featured games such as The First Berserker: Khazan, Lies of P: Overture, and Stellar Blade will offer added dimensionality that enhances terrain, distance, and object separation beyond standard 2D gameplay. It can also do 2D > 3D upscaling apparently. Connectivity includes DisplayPort 2.1 (UHBR tier not listed) and HDMI 2.1 inputs.

Odyssey G60H: The World’s First 1,040Hz Refresh Rate Gaming Monitor

Not to be out-done by the recent announcements from AOC and Philips of their 1000Hz-capable gaming LCD monitors, Samsung have now announced the Odyssey G60H. This is a 27″ sized screen build around an IPS LCD panel with a 2560 x 1440 resolution. It has a native 600Hz refresh rate at 1440p, and this can be boosted to a massive 1,040Hz at a much lower 720p / HD resolution.

Adaptive-sync VRR is supported with AMD ‘FreeSync Premium’ and NVIDIA ‘G-sync Compatible’ certification. HDR10+ content will also be supported, although HDR hardware capabilities are not listed at this time. Connectivity includes DisplayPort 2.1 (UHBR tier not listed) and HDMI 2.1 inputs.

Samsung say this is “delivering esports-level motion clarity to help players track targets and see fine details during high-speed movement.” We remain somewhat sceptical about the performance of an IPS LCD panel at these kind of refresh rates. In the past they’ve struggled with very high refresh rates like 500Hz, and response times will need to have been significantly improved to keep up with these super-high frame rates. Hopefully they can deliver some decent performance though and we’ll see what we can learn at CES when we see them in person.

Odyssey G80HS: The First 6K Gaming Monitor

This is a new 32″ sized screen (we believe accurately it will be 31.5″) being released next year. The Odyssey G80HS is the industry’s first “6K” resolution gaming monitor, which features an IPS LCD panel that delivers a native 165Hz refresh rate, along with a Dual Mode function that supports up to 330Hz in “3K” mode. Like the glass-free 3D screen (G90XH) discussed above this has a high 6144 x 3456 native resolution, and we assume the 3K mode will operate at 3072 x 1728 resolution. This will offer a ~224 PPI pixel density which is impressive on a 31.5″ sized screen, something we’ve tested in recent times in fact on this LG monitor.

Adaptive-sync VRR is supported with AMD ‘FreeSync Premium’ and NVIDIA ‘G-sync Compatible’ certification. HDR10+ content will also be supported, although HDR hardware capabilities are not listed at this time. Connectivity includes DisplayPort 2.1 (UHBR tier not listed) and HDMI 2.1 inputs.

Odyssey G80HF: 5K Dual-mode Gaming Monitor

The 27″ Odyssey G80HF provides a sharp 5120 x 2880 “5K” resolution option with native support up to 180Hz and with Dual Mode function boosting to 360Hz in 1440p (2560 x 1440) for smoother motion. This will offer a 218 PPI pixel density which is impressive on a 27″ sized screen, something we’ve tested in recent times in fact on this Philips monitor. This is another IPS LCD panel and adaptive-sync VRR is supported with AMD ‘FreeSync Premium’ and NVIDIA ‘G-sync Compatible’ certification.

HDR10+ content will also be supported, although HDR hardware capabilities are not listed at this time. Connectivity includes DisplayPort 2.1 (UHBR tier not listed) and HDMI 2.1 inputs.

Odyssey G80SH: A new 32″ QD-OLED monitor with 4K and 240Hz

It seemed for a minute like all the focus was on IPS LCD monitors with Samsung this year, but the G80SH offers a new update to their popular 32″ G8 QD-OLED monitor. It offers a 3840 x 2160 “4K” resolution and 240Hz refresh rate as before, but some updated features and specs.

The screen features their ‘Glare Free’ coating as featured on their OLED monitors of the last couple of years and some updated brightness specs including 300-nit SDR brightness and VESA DisplayHDR 500 True Black certification. This model has DisplayPort 2.1 and it’s the only one in the press release where Samsung specifically list UHBR20 / 80Gbps bandwidth, so we would take that to mean that the other monitors discussed here will have lower-tier DP 2.1 connections. There’s also HDMI 2.1 and USB type-C with 98W power delivery offered.

AMD FreeSync Premium Pro and NVIDIA G-Sync Compatible are supported again along with HDR10+ content.
