Samsung’s New 2025 Monitors Bring AI Capabilities, Gaming Performance and Enhanced Productivity to CES

Samsung Electronics America today unveiled its 2025 Smart Monitor, Odyssey Gaming Monitor and ViewFinity Monitor lineups, all of which will be on display at Samsung’s First Look at CES on January 5.

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

“Samsung will continue its tradition of innovating display technology in 2025 with the introduction of new Odyssey, Smart and ViewFinity models,” said David Phelps, Head of the Display Division, Samsung Electronics America. “Whether its new AI capabilities, size options, or groundbreaking refresh rates, Samsung will ensure that every type of user will have their needs met for enhancing productivity, gaming, and entertainment.”

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, the M9 features AI Picture Optimizer, which analyzes input signals to determine the type of content being viewed — such as gaming, video or productivity applications — and automatically adjust the display settings for the best visual experience.¹ For gamers, the AI goes further by recognizing the genre of the game being played and fine-tune the picture settings to deliver an optimal and immersive experience for every playstyle.²

The M9 also incorporates 4K AI Upscaling Pro, which uses advanced AI processing and neural networks to upgrade lower-resolution content up to 4K quality.³ By analyzing input signals and existing image data, this feature delivers crystal-clear visuals with enhanced detail, regardless of the original resolution.

These smart and personalized features enhance the hardware performance of the M9. It features a 32” 4K OLED screen with VESA DisplayHDR™ True Black 400 for incredible details and vivid colors. 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 any environment.

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

The Odyssey gaming monitor series powers up industry-leading performance in new sizes with the 2025 Odyssey OLED G8 and G6 models.

The Odyssey OLED G8 (G81SF model) is the first 27” 4K (3,840 x 2,160) OLED gaming monitor in the world. The screen packs in 165 PPI(pixels per inch) with a refresh rate of 240Hz. The level of 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. 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 less tear and flickering. VESA DisplayHDR™ True Black 400⁴ delivers rich darks without bloom or color bleed, making the most of the OLED screen, while OLED Glare Free screens keep the focus on the game by reducing 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 customizable 3D experience without the need for separate 3D glasses. It can also add a new depth to content by using AI to analyze and convert 2D video into 3D.

ViewFinity S8: A Bigger Canvas for Productivity and Creativity

The ViewFinity S8 (S80UD model) is the largest 16:9 4K monitor to date. Its 37” screen is approximately 34% larger than the previous model⁵ and is designed to maximize 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% color gamut faithfully presenting colors on the 4K (3,840 x 2,160) screen, the ViewFinity S8 delivers the color representation and brightness necessary for professional users to do their best work.

The 2025 ViewFinity S8 has been certified by TÜV Rheinland⁶ for ‘Ergonomic Workspace Display,’ recognizing its ergonomic design that enhances work immersion, task efficiency and productivity. TÜV-certified⁷ Intelligent Eye Care reduces fatigue in users’ eyes — even during prolonged use — by adjusting the color temperature based on the environment’s lighting. Eye saver mode and a flicker-free feature also protect eyes from strain.

With a simple Easy Setup Stand, the S8 also keeps productivity high through a built-in KVM⁸ 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.

1 AI Picture Optimizer is available only when the monitor is connected to a PC.

2 Support may vary depending on the game title.

3 AI Upscaling Pro enhances FHD to 4K, SD to FHD, and HD to QHD.

4 VESA DisplayHDR™ True Black 400 certification is underway and expected to be finalized before the product launch date.
