Ahead of CES 2026, Samsung has announced the 2026 range of Odyssey gaming monitors. There are a total of five models and they offer features such as 6K glasses-free 3D support and up to 1,040Hz refresh rate.

Samsung has introduced the Odyssey 3D, the Odyssey G6, and three variants of the Odyssey G8.

Starting with the Odyssey 3D (G90XH), Samsung claims it is the world’s first gaming monitor to offer a 6K-resolution, glasses-free 3D display. It comes with a 32-inch panel and supports refresh rates of up to 165Hz, along with HDMI 2.1 and DisplayPort 2.1 connectivity.

The monitor uses real-time eye-tracking technology to deliver immersive 3D depth without the need for glasses. It also supports Dual Mode, enabling a 330Hz refresh rate, and offers a 1ms GtG response time.

Next up is the Odyssey G6 (G60H), another world-first, boasting an industry-leading 1,040Hz refresh rate. That extreme refresh rate is limited to HD resolution, however. At its native QHD resolution, the 27-inch monitor delivers up to 600Hz refresh rate. It also supports both AMD FreeSync Premium and Nvidia G-Sync.

Lastly, the Odyssey G8 is offered in three sizes. The 32-inch G80HS model features a 6K resolution, up to 165Hz refresh rate, and 330Hz in 3K resolution. Meanwhile, the 27-inch G80HF variant offers a 5K resolution, a 180Hz native refresh rate, and can reach up to 360Hz in QHD resolution.

Meanwhile, the 32-inch (G80SH) model features a 4K resolution QD-OLED panel that offers a 240Hz refresh rate, an anti-glare coating, 300-nit brightness, and HDR True Black 500 certification. All three Odyssey G8 models support AMD FreeSync Premium Pro and Nvidia G-Sync.

The new Samsung Odyssey Gaming monitor lineup will be showcased at the upcoming CES 2026. Pricing and availability details will be revealed at a later date.
