The Odyssey G7 features a 1000R curvature for an immersive gaming experience, and supports high refresh rates of up to 180Hz (40-inch) and 165Hz (37-inch), as well as a fast 1ms response time (GTG standard). It is equipped with the latest gaming features, including 'HDR10+ Gaming' for optimal HDR quality, 'CoreSync' which matches the rear lighting and color of the product to the on-screen colors, and 'Auto Source Switch Plus' that automatically switches to the screen of connected IT devices.
The 37-inch and 40-inch Odyssey G7 models will be released sequentially starting this month in Korea, followed by North America, Europe, and other global markets.
Visitors to the Samsung Electronics booth can experience Netmarble's upcoming title "MonGil: Star Dive" and Shift Up's popular game "Stellar Blade" in 3D mode using the Odyssey 3D monitor. The Odyssey 3D supports features such as 'Focal Distance Adjustment,' which adjusts the depth of 3D by changing the distance between the camera and the focus reference, and '3D Settings,' which optimizes 3D stereoscopic effects by recognizing left-right parallax, providing an optimized 3D gaming environment. Samsung Electronics has formed partnerships with Netmarble and Shift Up to expand the selection of 3D games available on the Odyssey 3D monitor.
