Samsung’s Monitor M9, Odyssey OLED G6, OLED G8, & ViewFinity S8 are  Cutting-Edge Displays Ready for Gamers and Content Creators

Just like ASUS and MSI, who have prepared their first 4K QD-OLED and 500Hz OLED gaming monitors to show off at CES, Samsung is also ready with its flagship products. The company has announced five new display products that are scheduled to be released at CES.

The first one is the Smart Monitor M9 (Model: M90SF), one of the industry’s first AI monitors, which integrates on-device AI for features like AI Picture Optimizer and 4K AI Upscaling Pro to enhance the visual experience drastically. It is suitable for gaming, watching movies, and content creation, and brings automatic AI adjustments for the best image quality. As per the company, the monitor can recognize the genre of the game being played and with that information, it can fine-tune the visual quality for better immersion.

Then there are two high-end gaming monitors, both featuring OLED panels. The first one is the Odyssey OLED G8 (Model: G81SF), featuring 4K resolution and up to 240 Hz refresh rate. This is the company’s first OLED 4K 240 Hz monitor, which seeks to compete with ASUS and MSI’s QD-OLED 4K 240Hz panels. The second one is the Odyssey OLED G6 (Model: G60SF), which brings QHD (2560x1440p) resolution on an OLED panel and up to 500 Hz refresh rate for extremely fluid gameplay.

Both deliver 0.03ms of GtG response time and bring AMD FreeSync Premium Pro for tear-free gaming. With DisplayHDR True Black 400 support, the monitors can further enhance the visual quality and bring better brightness than regular OLED panels. The fifth one is the Odyssey 3D (Model: G90XF), which is a 27-inch gaming monitor, bringing a customizable 3D experience for those who want to experience it without 3D glasses. This monitor uses AI to convert 2D content into 3D by adding depth.

The fifth one is the ViewFinity S8 (Model: S80UD), boasting a large 37-inch display for immersion and easier content creation. This is about 34% larger screen size than the predecessor and the resolution is 4K for detailed visuals. With 99% sRGB color space coverage, the S8 can deliver great color reproduction and has decent color accuracy as well.

ViewFinity S8 brings built-in KVM to increase productivity, an easy-to-setup stand, and a 90W USB-C connection with power delivery for charging laptops. Samsung has not revealed any pricing and availability info, but usually, companies launch their products a few weeks after revealing them. So, all these displays may end up on the shelves before the end of this month.
