Samsung is taking the ultrawide monitor to the next level by introducing a 57-inch display.
The Odyssey Neo G9 gaming monitor is so long it’s essentially two side-by-side 4K screens. As a result, it boasts a 7,680-by-2,160-pixel resolution for an unconventional 32:9 aspect ratio.
The monitor promises “an unparalleled field of view” during gaming sessions thanks to its widescreen design. It also has a 1000R curvature, a notably high 240Hz refresh rate, and the new DisplayPort 2.1 standard.
To build the monitor, Samsung fitted the Odysey Neo G9 with a miniLED display that boasts HDR1000, enabling more accurate and brighter colors. The company plans on showing off the new monitor at CES in Las Vegas this week. But for now, it’s remaining mum on how much the monitor will cost and its availability.

For customers looking for a slightly smaller gaming monitor, Samsung created the Odyssey OLED G9, which will also be at CES. It features a 49-inch screen and 32:9 aspect ratio.

The display also uses Samsung’s Quantum Dot OLED technology, which the company showed off at CES 2022 and has already appeared in a few cutting-edge monitors. QD-OLED can beam true black and bright colors that rival and arguably surpass OLED technology from LG.
Other features for the Odyssey OLED G9 include a 240Hz refresh rate, a 0.1-millisecond response time, and its own 1800R curve.

Alongside the gaming monitors, Samsung is also unveiling two conventional-sized monitors at CES. The first, the ViewFinity S9, boasts a 27-inch screen with a 5K resolution at 5,120 by 2,880 pixels. The same product also comes with a 4K camera built for video conferencing.
The second product, the 4K Smart Monitor M8, will arrive in two screen sizes—27 inches and 32 inches. The displays can also pivot at 90 degrees, allowing you to view them vertically.
