Samsung’s Odyssey OLED G8 isn’t here to play—it’s packing 4K visuals, 240Hz refresh rate, near-instant response times, and wild anti-burn tech. Whether you're grinding ranked or bingeing Netflix, this monitor’s built to blow your eyeballs (and expectations) away.

Samsung’s latest gaming monitor isn’t just flexing specs—it’s chasing firsts. The South Korean giant claims that their Odyssey OLED G8 (G81SF) is the world’s first 4K OLED monitor with a 240Hz refresh rate, and it’s not messing around. With blazing-fast response times, Quantum Dot colour, and advanced anti-burn-in tech, this thing looks like it was built for gamers who don’t do compromises.

Two sizes, one goal: Ridiculous clarity

The monitor comes in 27-inch and 32-inch sizes, but the 27-inch model steals the show with a pixel density of 166 PPI—which is, frankly, ridiculous. Everything from fast-paced FPS titles to text looks razor-sharp, and the Quantum Dot OLED panel delivers punchy colours, ultra-deep blacks, and excellent viewing angles.

Add VESA DisplayHDR True Black 400 into the mix, and you’re getting inky shadows and contrast that doesn’t need dimmed lights to pop.

Built-in burn-in protection

OLED burn-in is a legit concern, but Samsung’s taking it head-on with its new OLED Safeguard+ and Dynamic Cooling System. The star here is a Pulsating Heat Pipe—something we’ve seen in smartphones and gaming laptops, but never in a monitor. It helps manage heat without throttling brightness, extending panel life without sacrificing image quality.

There’s also a Glare-Free coating certified by Underwriters Laboratories, cutting down on reflectivity by 56% for distraction-free sessions—whether you’re gaming, editing, or just doomscrolling.

Performance specs that actually matter

On the gaming side, it’s loaded:

  • 240Hz refresh rate

  • 0.03ms response time

  • FreeSync Premium Pro and G-SYNC support

Smooth gameplay, minimal latency, and no ghosting. It’s everything you’d want for high-stakes multiplayer or buttery-smooth single-player campaigns.

Design, price, and the bottom line

The Odyssey OLED G8 has a premium vibe: metal chassis, Core Lighting+, and an ergonomic stand. It’s meant to stand out, whether on a minimalist desk or a full-blown battle station.

Here’s what it’ll cost you:

  • Odyssey OLED G8 27″: ₹91,299

  • Odyssey OLED G8 32″: ₹1,18,999

Whether you’re chasing frame-perfect flicks or just want your games to look absurdly good, this monitor brings the heat—no hype needed.
