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.

With CES 2025 just around the corner, multiple gaming monitor brands are unleashing their wares for the new year. We've already seen some 500+ Hz OLED panels. Next up is a new generation of 4K 27-inch OLEDs.
