Samsung on Wednesday unveiled its latest innovation in gaming monitors with the introduction of the Odyssey 3D at Gamescom 2024. The event, held in Cologne, Germany, also saw the South Korean tech conglomerate unveil the Odyssey G6, G8 and G9 series models. The new Samsung Odyssey 3D is capable of converting 2D content into 3D images by using a special type of lens, thereby eliminating the need for 3D glasses.
Samsung Odyssey 3D Specifications
Samsung Odyssey 3D comes in two screen sizes: 27 inches and 37 inches. It can output up to 4K resolution with a maximum refresh rate of 165 Hz. The monitor makes it possible to watch 3D content without glasses thanks to Eye Tracking and View Mapping technologies.

It is aimed at gamers and comes with a 1ms gray-to-gray (GTG) response time and FreeSync Premium technology.
