Samsung's world-first 500 Hz OLED is the ultimate no-compromise esports monitor but it's painfully pricey at nearly $1,500

  • Samsung launched the Odyssey OLED G6, the world's first 27-inch 500Hz OLED gaming monitor, now available for pre-order with shipping starting May 18, 2025.
  • This release follows recent trends of high refresh rate displays, with Samsung pioneering 500Hz on OLED while competitors offer up to 600Hz on LCD.
  • The monitor features QHD resolution , a 0.03ms response time, DisplayHDR True Black 500 certification, NVIDIA G-Sync, AMD FreeSync Premium Pro, and OLED Safeguard+ burn-in prevention.
  • Its retail price is $1,688 but a $200 pre-order discount reduces it to $1,488, with launches initially in Southeast Asian markets including Singapore, Thailand, Vietnam, and Malaysia.
  • This monitor targets competitive gamers seeking high performance and visual quality, though its premium price implies a significant investment for most users.
