Samsung Odyssey OLED G6 G60SF: One-minute review

OK, let's try to get one thing clear. The Samsung Odyssey OLED G6 G60SF is brand new. It's a super-fast 27-inch OLED gaming monitor that runs at an epic 500Hz refresh rate. It's brighter than previous Samsung 27 inchers. But it doesn't actually sport Samsung's very latest OLED panel technology.

Indeed, the whole narrative around the various generations of Samsung's QD-OLED technology has gotten very complicated of late. In some ways, it's easier to say what this monitor is not than what it is.

With that in mind, the Samsung Odyssey OLED G6 G60SF lacks a couple of the very latest QD-OLED panel features. First, it doesn't have the so-called RGB-stripe subpixel structure. And it lacks the new panel filter that reduces the purple-tint problem in ambient light.

We'll get to the implications of those shortly. But for now, what we're dealing with here is a 27-inch 1440p OLED monitor with a very high refresh rate that will appeal to gamers who value speed above almost, but not quite, all else.

If it's sheer speed you demand, look no further than the Samsung Odyssey OLED G6 G60SF. The combination of 500Hz refresh and the usual OLED upside of incredible pixel speed makes for a sizzling gaming experience. This monitor is seriously fast.

It's also punchy thanks to updated QD-OLED panel technology. However, this isn't actually Samsung's very latest tech and that does show in a few areas. The non-standard triangular subpixel structure slightly compromises sharpness, while the QD-OLED purple-tint problem in bright ambient light remains.

More particular to this monitor are disappointing SDR calibration, a lack of USB-C connectivity and somewhat lofty price point. All of which means this isn't an automatic choice for those seeking a 27-inch 1440p gaming monitor. But for esports addicts and other speed freaks, it will still be hard to overlook.

Samsung Odyssey OLED G6 G60SF: Price & availability

• How much does it cost? $799 / £699 / AU$1,699
• When is it available? Available now
• Where can you get it? Available in the US, UK, and Australia

At $799 in the US, £699 in the UK and $1,699 in Australia, the Samsung Odyssey OLED G6 G60SF is pretty steep for a mere 27-inch 1440p monitor.

At this price point you can choose from all manner of LCD monitors (many featured in our best monitors buying guide) up to 49 inches, offering all kinds of resolutions and aspect ratios from 4K and beyond.

Of course, this is an OLED gaming monitor, and they all come with a price premium. However, even in that context, the Samsung Odyssey OLED G6 G60SF isn't exactly cheap. We've seen 27-inch OLEDs below $500 now and then, albeit not models that run at 500Hz.

Samsung Odyssey OLED G6 G60SF: Design

• Slim bezels
• Compact base
• Large power supply brick

If you liked the look of Samsung's previous Odyssey gaming monitors, you're going to love the new Odyssey OLED G6 G60SF. Because it's a dead ringer in design terms.

For the most part, that's good news. This is a slick-looking and well constructed monitor with a modern vibe, thanks to slim bezels on all four sides of its QD-OLED display panel.

It also offers decent ergonomics with both height and tilt adjustment and a reasonably compact stand base that doesn't take up too much desktop space. The main blot on the ergonomic and design copybook, therefore, is the massive external power supply brick.

No doubt it helps to keep the chassis of the monitor slim, but it does make cable management and general tidiness that bit trickier. Speaking of cables, notable by its absence is support for a USB-C input cable.

You do get HDMI and DisplayPort, both of which support the full 500Hz refresh rate. And, yes, this is unambiguously a gaming monitor, so USB-C is that bit less relevant. But at this price point, you'd have thought Samsung might have thrown it in, anyway. That way you can easily, say, share this monitor between your gaming desktop and a work laptop.

Samsung Odyssey OLED G6 G60SF: Performance

• Extremely fast
• Vibrant colors
• Limited SDR presets

The headline feature of the Samsung Odyssey OLED G6 G60SF is its 500Hz refresh rate. Combined with the incredible response speed of all OLEDs, which the monitor industry pretty much universally rates at 0.03ms, and you have a recipe for incredible speed.

That's very much the subjective experience, too. This thing is hella quick, with remarkably little motion blur and essentially no discernible input lag. Put simply, esports fans who play online shooters and appreciate this kind of speed will love this thing.

Of course, the most serious of esports aficionados will probably still favour an even higher refresh rate and smaller 1080p monitor. So, the question then becomes, how is this monitor for everyone else?

(Image credit: Future)

Well, with a 2560 by 1440 native resolution, the pixel density is moderate at best compared to a 4K panel of the same size. So, this isn't the crispest or sharpest of displays. That's slightly exacerbated by the panel's triangular rather than RGB-stripe subpixel structure. If you like sharp fonts, this isn't the display for you.

It also suffers from the usual purple tint in bright ambient light that all QD-OLED displays suffer. Well, all bar a new generation of panels, but that tech isn't used here. Then there's the matte anti-glare coating. Sure, it reduces reflectivity. But it also robs this monitor of that sense of inky, almost infinite contrast that glossy OLED monitors deliver in the right circumstances.

Make no mistake, this is still a punchy, vibrant display, as indicated by an increased full-screen brightness rating of 300 nits. By way of example, there's a dark indoor scene in Cyberpunk 2077 involving sizzling arcs of electricity leaping across the screen. And it's absolutely stunning. That's perfect per-pixel lighting, OLED style, for you. No LCD monitor comes close. But with a glossy coating, it would have been even more incredible.

The Odyssey OLED G6 G60SF's factory calibration in SDR mode could be a lot better, too. The OSD doesn't actually offer the usual sRGB or DCI-P3 color presets, and none of the various modes that are offered deliver a properly balanced SDR experience. They're all overly warm in terms of color temperature, and are also oversaturated.

In mitigation, SDR content is actually really nicely calibrated in HDR mode. So, you can actually just run this thing in HDR mode for everything. But the SDR calibration and preset limitations are a little odd.

Should you buy the Samsung Odyssey OLED G6 G60SF?Samsung Odyssey OLED G6 G60SF scorecard

Value

At around $799, the Odyssey OLED G6 G60SF is pretty expensive even for a 27-inch OLED monitor. But then if you want a 500Hz OLED, good luck finding one much cheaper.

3 / 5

Design

Samsung's usual Odyssey design and build quality features again, which is generally good. But at this price point, the lack of USB-C connectivity is disappointing.

4 / 5

Performance

There's no questioning the incredible speed of the Odyssey OLED G6 G60SF. But the resolution is mediocre and the 27-inch experience isn't exactly cinematic.

4 / 5

Final score

The Odyssey OLED G6 G60SF is a bit of a niche offering. If you want the ultimate in OLED speed, however, it absolutely delivers.

4. / 5

Buy the Samsung Odyssey OLED G6 G60SF if...

You want the ultimate in speed
The Odyssey OLED G6 G60SF is ridiculously fast thanks to the combination of 500Hz refresh and 0.03ms response.

You want awesome HDR
Thanks to OLED's perfect per-pixel lighting, the Odyssey OLED G6 G60SF has far better HDR performance than any LCD monitor, including mini-LED models.

Don't buy it if...

You want lots of pixels
With a native resolution of 2560 by 1440, the Odyssey OLED G6 G60SF isn't exactly a high-DPI monitor. That's OK for games, less so for everything else.

You want cinematic thrills
At this price point you have plenty of options if you want a really immersive, cinematic experience. At just 27 inches, this is a modestly-sized monitor for the money.

Samsung's latest 27-inch 500Hz OLED gaming monitor, the Odyssey OLED G6 G60SF, is incredibly fast, but that does come at a cost.
