Samsung has revolutionized gaming monitors with its latest offering, the Odyssey OLED G6, the world’s first 500Hz OLED gaming monitor. This powerhouse display boasts vivid colors, excellent contrast, and a super high refresh rate, making it an ideal choice for competitive gamers.
The Odyssey OLED G6 features a QHD resolution of 2560 x 1440, with a 16:9 aspect ratio and a blisteringly fast 500Hz refresh rate, paired with a .03ms (GTG) response time. Its QD-OLED panel also boasts a matte anti-reflective coating and support for both AMD FreeSync Premium Pro and NVIDIA G-Sync.
While the monitor lacks Samsung’s built-in smart features like an included remote or Gaming Hub, it delivers exceptional image quality with vibrant colors and deep inky blacks. The display is also Pantone Validated and covers 99 percent of the DCI-P3 spectrum, making it suitable for photo and video editing.
The Odyssey OLED G6 is available for $1,000, while its smaller sibling, the 37-inch Odyssey G7, starts at $900. The larger 40-inch Odyssey G7 offers a wider 21:9 WUHD resolution and a slightly faster 180Hz refresh rate, priced at $1,200.
For those seeking ultra-wide monitors, Samsung has introduced two new additions to its Odyssey G7 line, including the 37-inch and 40-inch models. While both offer impressive features, the smaller 37-inch model boasts more traditional dimensions despite its larger appearance in person.
All three monitors are now available for purchase, offering competitive gamers a high-end display experience that prioritizes image quality and responsiveness over other features.
