Samsung has announced its new monitor lineup for 2025, including the Odyssey OLED G8 (G81SF), which is said to be the world's first 27-inch 4K OLED gaming monitor with a 240Hz refresh rate. This announcement comes alongside (or even before) similar reveals from other manufacturers like MSI, which also unveiled a monitor with similar specifications.

27-inch 4K OLED 240Hz monitors seem to be like buses: you wait ages for one and then three turn up at once. Asus, Samsung, and MSI are all announcing the industry’s next-generation QD-OLED gaming monitors that offer the benefits of 4K OLED 240Hz panels at the smaller 27-inch size instead of 32 inches.

MSI's new MPG 272URX QD-OLED is the world's firrst 27-inch QD-OLED 4K 240Hz gaming monitor with DisplayPort 2.1a connectivity: 4K 240FPS without DSC tech.
