Samsung launches preorders for 2025 gaming monitors

Samsung announced that its 2025 gaming monitor lineup  will be available for preorder starting today.

Consumers will get up to $300 Samsung credit when they purchase one of the new monitors. It’s not a bad time to launch them, as Nvidia and AMD are both shipping high-end graphics cards for hardcore PC gamers.

The new models include:

  • 27” Odyssey 3D: First introduced in CES 2024, this groundbreaking glasses-free display delivers a 3D experience unlike anything currently available on the market. Using innovative light field display technology and eye tracking technology, the Odyssey 3D creates lifelike 3D images from 2D content. The monitor also features a 165Hz refresh rate, 1ms response time and AMD FreeSync Premium.
  • 27” Odyssey OLED G81SF: The new iteration to the award-winning model, the OLED G81SF is the industry’s first 27” 4K OLED gaming monitor, upgraded to include unrivaled picture quality within a 27-inch design. It supports 4K UHD resolution and a 240Hz refresh rate so gamers can expect more detailed and colorful picture quality. Enjoy Samsung Glare Free technology which eliminates reflections so you can game in any environment.
  • 49” Odyssey G91F: Experience complete immersion with the 49-inch display with a 1000R curvature. The curved Dual QHD features an ultra-wide 32:9 screen, equivalent to two side-by-side 16:9 monitors, as well as a 144Hz refresh rate and near-instant 1ms response time (GtG) for ultra-smooth gameplay.
