Samsung Announces 2026 Odyssey Monitor Lineup: 6K 3D and High Refresh Rates
Samsung Electronics has released details on its upcoming 2026 Odyssey gaming monitor lineup. The announcement, made ahead of CES 2026, introduces five new models focusing on higher resolutions and increased refresh rates. The lineup includes a glasses-free 3D display and a monitor capable of reaching 1,040Hz in specific modes.
For those planning to integrate these new displays into a desktop setup, you can verify GPU compatibility on Configurine as specifications become available in our database.
Odyssey 3D: Glasses-Free 6K
The most distinct entry in the new lineup is the Odyssey 3D (G90XH). This is a 32-inch IPS monitor featuring a 6K resolution (6,144 x 3,456). Its primary feature is a lenticular lens implementation paired with eye-tracking technology, allowing for 3D visuals without the need for wearable hardware.
The monitor supports a native refresh rate of 165Hz, which can be boosted to 330Hz using a "Dual Mode" that lowers the resolution to 3K. It includes both HDMI 2.1 and DisplayPort 2.1 connectivity.
Odyssey G6: Pushing Refresh Rates
For competitive gaming scenarios where motion clarity is prioritized over resolution, Samsung introduced the Odyssey G6 (G60H). This 27-inch monitor uses a QHD (2,560 x 1,440) IPS panel.
- Native Performance: 600Hz refresh rate at QHD.
- Dual Mode: 1,040Hz refresh rate at HD resolution.
This model supports AMD FreeSync Premium Pro and is compatible with NVIDIA G-Sync.
Expanded Odyssey G8 Series
The G8 series is expanding with three new variations, offering a choice between resolution types and panel technologies.
- Odyssey G8 (G80HS): A 32-inch IPS panel with 6K resolution. It mirrors the refresh rate specs of the 3D model—165Hz native, boostable to 330Hz in Dual Mode.
- Odyssey G8 (G80HF): A 27-inch IPS panel with 5K resolution (5,120 x 2,880). It operates at 180Hz native, with a 360Hz Dual Mode at QHD.
- Odyssey OLED G8 (G80SH): A 32-inch QD-OLED panel with 4K resolution (3,840 x 2,160). It features a 240Hz refresh rate and includes a USB-C port with 98W power delivery.
