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:
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.
