Samsung announces Odyssey OLED G8 gaming monitor

Samsung has unveiled its first gaming monitor, the Odyssey OLED G8 (model name: G85SB), at the IFA 2022 in Berlin, Germany.

Its key features are its ‘ultra-thin’ form factor, QHD 32-inch display, a ‘lightning-quick’ 0.1ms response time, and 175Hz refresh rate.

The curved monitor has a 21:9 aspect ratio and supports AMD FreeSync Premium to get rid of those screen tearing and provide smooth gameplay.
