\u201cPlayers come to Gamescom to discover what is next, try new games, and experience the technology they need to stay focused and compete at their best. With new form factors, higher refresh rates, and advanced display technologies, the 2027 Odyssey lineup gives players more choice across competitive play, cinematic games, and multi-purpose setups.\u201d\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

The new Odyssey OLED G9 is Samsung\u2019s first 49-inch DQHD (5120 x 1440) resolution gaming monitor with 360Hz refresh rate.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The fifth-generation QD-OLED panel inside uses Penta Tandem technology to enhance\u00a0 efficiency, lifespan, and luminosity of the panel, while offering high-performance 0.03 ms GtG response time.<\/p>\n

The monitor includes Dual Mode support, letting players play with Dual QHD resolution at 360 Hz offering a wide, high-resolution view or they can switch to Dual HD (2560 x 720) resolution at up to 720 Hz for higher performance.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Samsung\u2019s Odyssey OLED G8 brings UHD resolution OLED gaming to the party, pairing a QD-OLED quality panel with fluid gameplay and Triple Mode support.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The Triple Mode support will let players switch between UHD (3840 x 2160) resolution at 360Hz, Quad HD (2560 x 1440) resolution at 520 Hz or a blisteringly fast 680Hz at Full HD (1920\u00d71080) resolution.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The display includes \u2018Glare Free\u2019 technology, improving on Samsung\u2019s anti-reflection film, and includes both AMD FreeSync and NVIDIA G-Sync compatibility.\u00a0<\/p>\n

There\u2019s DisplayPort 2.1 UHBR20, as well as dual HDMI ports on the rear, with Samsung including a USB-C port with 98 W Power Delivery for charging and a USB hub with two downstream ports, and KVM support.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The monitor has a 1000R curvature to bring the edges of gameplay back into your field of vision, with 4K resolution gaming at 165Hz refresh rate at 0.03ms Grey-to-Grey response.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Lastly, the Odyssey G6 will push competitive gamers, offering Game Play at a blisteringly fast 1,100Hz.<\/p>\n

The 27-inch Odyssey G6 is Samsung\u2019s first 1,100 Hz gaming monitor which they say has been \u2018built \u00a0for FPS players who place speed and motion clarity first\u2019.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The monitor was first introduced at CES earlier this year with a 1,040Hz refresh rate \u2013 but the final product will let players hit the 1100Hz mark at 720p \/ HD resolution, or switch to 600Hz refresh in Quad HD (2560 x 1440) resolution.<\/p>\n

At this stage Samsung hasn\u2019t announced local availability or pricing, but we\u2019ll get that as we get closer to launch.\u00a0<\/p>\n
