Samsung Australia Launches Next-Gen Odyssey Gaming Monitors That Showcase Immersive 3D and OLED Excellence

Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd. has today announced that its newest Odyssey gaming monitors, including the revolutionary Odyssey 3D and the stunning Odyssey OLED G8, are now available for pre-order in Australia. These monitors, which push the boundaries of immersion and excellence, have been meticulously designed to deliver excellence to modern gamers.

“At Samsung, we are committed to delivering cutting-edge display technology that enhances the gaming experience,” said Hoon Chung, Executive Vice President of Visual Display Business at Samsung Electronics. “The new Odyssey monitors represent a significant leap forward in innovation, visual quality and performance, empowering gamers to fully immerse themselves and perform at their best.”

Entering the World of 3D Gaming on the Odyssey 3D

The new Odyssey 3D (G90XF model) 27” monitor introduces a groundbreaking 3D gaming experience that does not require dedicated glasses. Advanced eye-tracking technology and a proprietary lenticular lens deliver a natural-looking high-definition 3D image, accessible through the Reality Hub app,[1] which makes the action jump out of the screen to bring new energy and immersion to selected games and video content.

Samsung is actively collaborating with major game developers to make the most out of this 3D technology. These collaborations include:

Neowiz for the critically acclaimed Lies of P. The company’s first downloadable content (DLC), Overture, is scheduled for release in the second half of 2025.

In addition to 3D gaming, the Odyssey 3D features AI video conversion, which can transform video content into 3D, breathing new life into nearly all content.[2] Every scene of compatible content is analysed and converted to 3D for 3D effects with less eye strain.

The Odyssey 3D also boasts impressive gaming performance. A 165Hz refresh rate and 1ms Gray-to-Gray (GtG) response time keep gaming responsive and smooth on its 4K screen, while AMD FreeSync™ Premium and NVIDIA G-SYNC Compatible help reduce choppiness and screen lag, even during fast and complex gameplay.

Edge Lighting takes 3D immersion to the next level by filling the gaming environment with lighting that adapts to games. It fills the space under the monitor with colours that synchronise with the screen’s lighting, enhancing the 3D screen and bringing game environments into real life.

Now available for pre-order in Australia, Odyssey 3D has an RRP of $2,999. For more information, please visit: https://www.samsung.com/au/monitors/gaming/odyssey-3d-g90xf-27-inch-165hz-uhd-ls27fg900xexxy/

Samsung OLED G8 – 4K monitor with a 240Hz refresh rate, featuring 166 pixels-per-inch (ppi) — the highest pixel density for a screen of this size. Image simulated for illustrative purposes.

Odyssey OLED G8 Features Highest Pixel Density on a 27’’ Screen

The incredible picture quality of Samsung OLED gets a performance boost on the new Odyssey OLED G8 (G81SF model). Available for pre-order from today in 27” and 32” models, the 27” has 166 pixels-per-inch — the highest pixel density for a screen that size — and a 240Hz refresh rate. Both sizes of the OLED G8 bring next level performance and visual quality together.

The new 4K QD-OLED visuals deliver amazing details, with enhanced colours and contrast ratio from any viewing angle thanks to quantum dot technology. Boosted by VESA DisplayHDR™ TrueBlack 400, it delivers near-infinite contrast that makes vibrant colours pop, even at the high, typically 250nit brightness. Glare Free technology certified by Underwriters Laboratories (UL) helps minimise reflection, reducing distractions during use[3].

The screen’s image is protected by Samsung OLED Safeguard+. The proprietary Dynamic Cooling System uses a Pulsating Heat Pipe to diffuse heat without adjusting brightness. This helps protect the screen from burn-in.

The 240Hz refresh rate and 0.03ms (GtG) response time make the Odyssey OLED G8 a top performance gaming monitor, with fast and smooth screen movements. It supports AMD FreeSync Premium Pro and NVIDIA G-SYNC Compatible to prevent stuttering, tearing and jittering. These performance features combine to make gaming ultra-smooth, responsive and immersive.

The Odyssey OLED G8 also makes a stylish addition to any gaming setup. The slim metal design fits any aesthetic, while Core Lighting+ surrounds the user with lighting based on the screen. And it’s all easy to set up, thanks to the ergonomic stand.

Now available for pre-order in Australia, Odyssey OLED G8 27” has an RRP of $1,799. The Odyssey OLED G8 32” has an RRP of $1,999. For more information, please visit: https://www.samsung.com/au/monitors/gaming/odyssey-oled-g8-g81sf-32-inch-240hz-oled-uhd-ls32fg812sexxy/#specs
