Samsung has launched the Odyssey G81SF in China, featuring a 27-inch 4K 240Hz QD-OLED display. First showcased at CES 2025, the monitor delivers high-performance gaming visuals and competes with top OLED models from Asus and MSI. It is priced at 7,999 yuan ($1,102).
Samsung Odyssey G81SF Specifications
Samsung claims the Odyssey OLED G8 (G81SF) is the world’s first 4K OLED monitor with a 240Hz refresh rate, though Asus and MSI made similar claims at CES 2025.
The monitor uses Samsung Display’s fourth-generation QD-OLED panel, which offers improved longevity. It features 165 ppi for sharp visuals and a 0.03ms GtG response time, minimizing ghosting and input lag for smooth gameplay.
The G81SF boasts 99.3% DCI-P3 color gamut coverage, native 10-bit color, and a 3840×2160 resolution, ensuring vivid and accurate visuals for both gaming and creative work. Its HDR brightness peaks at 1000 nits, while SDR brightness is rated at 250 nits, delivering strong contrast for HDR content.
Designed for high-end gaming setups, the monitor supports AMD FreeSync Premium Pro and Nvidia G-Sync Compatible technology, helping to reduce screen tearing and deliver a fluid gaming experience. It also carries VESA DisplayHDR True Black 400 certification, meaning deeper blacks and better contrast than traditional LCDs.
Samsung has introduced Pulsating Heat Pipe technology, a thermal management system that claims to be five times more effective than conventional graphene-based cooling solutions. This should alleviate OLED burn-in concerns, working alongside intelligent static detection and built-in screen savers to extend panel longevity.
Beyond its impressive display, the Odyssey G81SF offers a flexible stand with tilt, height adjustment, and rotation support. While Samsung hasn’t disclosed all I/O details, the monitor includes HDMI 2.1, DisplayPort, and USB-C ports, alongside KVM and PIP functionality for seamless multitasking.
