Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd. has unveiled its 2025 Smart Monitor, Odyssey Gaming Monitor and ViewFinity Monitor lineups at Samsung’s First Look event at the 2025 Consumer Electronics Show (CES), Las Vegas, on January 5.

Samsung’s 2025 models raise the bar for monitors by bringing AI features, industry-first sizes in the OLED market, and new form factors that can ignite the passions of users worldwide — whether they’re working, gaming or creating.

“With the new monitors in our  renowned lineups, we’re giving people more ways to explore the content and connections that they love in new ways,” said Hoon Chung, Executive Vice President of Visual Display Business at Samsung Electronics. “Because of our new AI capabilities and size options, 2025 will see users across the world find the right monitor for whatever they need.”

Smart Monitor M9: Entertainment and Efficiency Get an AI Upgrade

The Smart Monitor M9 (M90SF model) introduces industry-first AI features that enhance entertainment and interactivity through smart picture adaptation and search functions.

As the first monitor to integrate on-device AI[1], the Smart Monitor M9 features AI Picture Optimiser, which analyses input signals to determine the type of content being viewed — such as gaming, video or productivity applications — and automatically adjusts the display settings for the best visual experience[2]. For gamers, the AI goes further by recognising the genre of the game being played and fine-tunes the picture settings to deliver an optimal and immersive experience for virtually every playstyle[3].

The Smart Monitor M9 also incorporates 4K AI Upscaling Pro, which uses advanced AI processing and neural networks to upgrade lower-resolution content up to 4K quality[4]. By analysing input signals and existing image data, this feature delivers clear visuals with enhanced detail, regardless of the original resolution.

These smart and personalised features enhance the hardware performance of the Smart Monitor M9. It features a 32” 4K OLED screen with VESA DisplayHDR™ True Black 400 for incredible details and vivid colours. Its thin design, along with the Easy Setup Stand, allows users to effortlessly create their ideal workspace, and a built-in 4K camera makes it convenient to use in virtually any environment.

Availability of the Smart Monitor M9 in Australia has not been announced.

Samsung Odyssey Series: Two Industry Firsts with a 27” 4K OLED Gaming Monitor and an OLED Screen with a 500Hz Refresh Rate

Samsung’s Odyssey gaming monitor series powers up exceptional performance in new sizes with the 2025 Odyssey OLED G8 and Odyssey OLED G6 models.

The Odyssey OLED G8 (G81SF model) is the first 27” 4K (3,840 x 2,160) OLED gaming monitor in the world[5]. The screen packs in 165 pixels per inch (PPI) with a refresh rate of 240Hz. The tight pixel density and screen smoothness gives game creators and players a new level of detail and picture quality as they build and explore realistic gaming worlds.

On the other hand, the Odyssey OLED G6 (G60SF model) redefines speed as the first-ever OLED screen with a 500Hz refresh rate on its QHD (2,560 x 1,440) screen[6]. The lightning-fast speed and ultra-smooth gameplay unleashes the potential for gamers who demand the best to gain a winning edge from device performance.

Both models deliver a response time of 0.03ms (GTG) for smooth visuals and crisp gameplay, even in fast-paced gaming environments. They also support AMD FreeSync™ Premium Pro and are NVIDIA G-Sync™ Compatible, allowing them to provide smooth pictures with minimal tear and flickering. VESA DisplayHDR™ True Black 400[7] delivers rich darks without bloom or colour bleed, making the most of the OLED screen, while OLED Glare Free screens keep the focus on the game by minimising distracting reflections and glare.

Samsung is also showcasing the 27” Odyssey 3D (G90XF model) gaming monitor at CES. Thanks to its lenticular lens attached to the front of the panel and its front stereo camera, the Odyssey 3D provides a customisable 3D experience without the need for separate 3D glasses. It can also add a new depth to content by using AI to analyse and convert 2D video into 3D.

Availability of the Odyssey OLED G6 (G60SF model), Odyssey OLED G8 (G81SF model), and 27” Odyssey 3D (G90XF model) in Australia has not been announced.

ViewFinity S8: A Bigger Canvas for Productivity and Creativity

The ViewFinity S8 (S80UD model) is Samsung’s largest 16:9 4K monitor to date[8]. Its 37” screen is approximately 34% larger than the previous model[9] and is designed to maximise productivity, immersion and efficiency. More information can be seen at a glance while making the most out of desk space — ushering in a new era of large, high-productivity monitors.

With its sRGB 99% colour gamut faithfully presenting colours on the 4K (3,840 x 2,160) screen, the ViewFinity S8 delivers the colour representation and brightness necessary for professional users to do their best work.

The 2025 ViewFinity S8 has been certified by TÜV Rheinland[10] for ‘Ergonomic Workspace Display,’ recognising its ergonomic design that enhances work immersion, task efficiency and productivity. TÜV-certified[11] Intelligent Eye Care can reduce fatigue in users’ eyes — even during prolonged use — by adjusting the colour temperature based on the environment’s lighting. Eye saver mode and a flicker-free feature also help protect eyes from strain.

With a simple Easy Setup Stand, the S8 also keeps productivity high through a built-in KVM[12] switch, turning the monitor into a single command station for multitasking across several devices with only one mouse and keyboard. Devices can also be connected and charged at the same time with a 90W USB-C connection, making it easy to quickly manage all the accessories a user needs.

Availability of the ViewFinity S8 (S80UD model) in Australia has not been announced.
