Based on total revenue, Samsung captured a leading 21.0% share of the global gaming monitor market in 2024,1 reaffirming its dominance in a fast-evolving, performance-driven industry. Samsung also ranked first in the global OLED monitor segment for the second year in a row, reaching a 34.6% market share just two years after launching its first OLED model.2

Samsung’s continued growth is fueled by its powerful Odyssey gaming monitor lineup, which sets the standard for immersive and high-performance gaming through a variety of models:
Odyssey 3D (G90XF model): A revolutionary 27” monitor that delivers immersive glasses-free 3D gaming, powered by eye-tracking and proprietary lenticular lens technology. With seamless 2D-to-3D video conversion via Reality Hub, a 165Hz refresh rate and an ultra-fast 1ms GTG response time, the monitor redefines interactivity and realism.

It features the industry’s highest pixel density in its class, a 0.03ms GTG response time and Samsung OLED Safeguard+ to protect against burn-in. Odyssey OLED G6 (G60SF model): A 27” QHD QD-OLED monitor with an ultra-fast 500Hz refresh rate and a 0.03ms GTG response time — planned for launch in the second half of 2025. The Odyssey G6 extends Samsung’s leadership into the competitive gaming segment, bringing elite-level speed and responsiveness.

The performance of all three monitors is further enhanced by being NVIDIA G-SYNC Compatible and having support for AMD FreeSync Premium Pro,3 which reduce stuttering, choppiness and lag for the ultimate OLED gaming experience.
