‘With this year’s Odyssey lineup, we’re introducing display experiences that simply weren’t possible even a year ago,’ said Hun Lee, Executive Vice President of the Visual Display Business at Samsung Electronics. He added that these monitors are designed to ‘meet the ambitions of today’s gamers.’
According to IDC, Samsung currently leads the global gaming monitor market for displays above 144Hz, with an 18.8 percent revenue share. The company says the new Odyssey range strengthens its position as competition intensifies from brands focusing on OLED and ultra-high refresh rate LCD panels.
The full 2026 Odyssey lineup will be shown publicly at CES 2026 in Las Vegas from January 6 to January 9, where hands-on demos will offer a clearer sense of how practical features like 6K gaming and 3D without glasses are in real-world use. We expect to learn about pricing and availability then.
