Samsung's new 'Odyssey 3D' 6K monitor takes center stage at CES 2026, features solid eye-tracking — 1,000 Hz dual-mode panel also on display, alongside new G6 & G8 OLED monitors

Two weeks ago, Samsung Display unveiled its new lineup of monitors to be featured at CES 2026, including a unique offering called the "Odyssey 3D" featuring a 6K resolution panel with eye-tracking. Now that the show floor has finally opened up, we took a look at all the models in-person, so here's everything the company has in store for this year.

Starting with the entry-level Odyssey G6, we have a 27" dual-mode monitor that has a native 1440p panel with a 600 Hz refresh rate that can almost double to 1,040 Hz at "HD" (read: 720p). Despite being a standard IPS offering, the monitor still has basic HDR support, along with 1ms GTG response times and FreeSync/G-Sync compatibility.

Next up, there are three Odyssey G8 panels, each exceeding the previous in resolution. First, we have the Odyssey OLED G8 featuring a 32" 4K QD-OLED panel with a 240 Hz refresh rate. This is similar to last year's G8, with the only exception being an HDR True Black 500 rating for brighter HDR and a new surface coating that should reduce black reveal in ambient lighting.

The OLED G8 also has a full UHBR20-compliant DisplayPort 2.1 for uncompressed 4K 240 Hz 10-bit output for the select few GPUs (and titles) that can utilize it. This panel's not rocking the new V-Stripe subpixel layout we covered a few days ago, but despite that, the high resolution should make text appear relatively clear and fringe-free. Of course, all the goodies you expect from a standard OLED monitor apply here, too.

Then we have two very similar Odyssey G8 models: the G80HF and the G80HS. They're IPS displays, but the G80HF is 27" and features a 180 Hz native refresh rate on a 5K panel, while the G80HS is a 32" 6K panel with a native 165 Hz refresh rate. Both have dual-mode to double their smoothness, but the 27" 5K model does so at 1440p, while the 32" 6K variant can achieve 330 Hz at 3K resolution.

We also saw an oddball 48" OLED with the model number S95H, which means it's actually from the brand's new flagship TV series, but Samsung is pitching it as a big-format display for PC gaming. The company is calling it the "brightest 48-inch OLED ever," peaking at 2,700 nits across a 10% window. It's otherwise a 165 Hz panel with 4K resolution, carrying a brand new chassis design that looks sleeker than ever.

Finally, that brings us to the Odyssey 3D: a 32-inch 6K panel with eye-tracking that claims to deliver an authentic 3D experience without any glasses. Upon checking it out, we were impressed with just how convincing this effect was; it's a significant improvement over the first-gen G90XF that came out last year. We noticed a very wide sweet spot with the eye-tracking snapping onto us even when standing behind a chair.

The panel's high native resolution does raise concerns since 6K 165 Hz won't be easy for any GPU to handle, but it does have dual-mode support to bring that down to a more reasonable 330 Hz at 3K. Performance looked decent in our initial impressions, but the stereo 3D effect would shine more when watching movies instead of playing games. It's also an IPS panel, not OLED, so don't expect the best contrast ratios.

That rounds out Samsung Display's showing at the CES 2026 stage. The company brought a wide variety of monitors, from QD-OLED to standard IPS offerings and even a special 3D monitor that'd be very interesting to test once it releases. Unfortunately, Samsung did not disclose availability or pricing, but we'll update the article in case anything comes forward.

    But how?? The only way I'm aware of to see 3D at home is to get a blu-ray player that supports 3D (I think the PS4 did, but PS5 doesn't). 3D TVs dropped off the market like 10 years ago and virtually no more 3D blu-rays are being produced. You can still get some DLP projectors that support 3D.

    Do any streaming services/devices offer 3D content?
