Amazon is selling the Samsung Odyssey OLED G8 (G80SH) 32-inch gaming monitor for $999.99, down $300 from its regular price of $1,299.99. Price trackers show this is the lowest price recorded for this model.
The G80SH is a 4K model with a QD-OLED panel running at 240Hz. It includes DisplayPort 2.1, HDMI 2.1, and USB-C with up to 98W of power delivery. The monitor supports FreeSync Premium Pro and G-SYNC compatibility.
The monitor works for both gaming and everyday desktop use. OLED technology keeps blacks properly black and makes bright effects stand out without the blooming seen on LCD monitors. However, blacks can take on a purplish tint in brightly lit rooms. Burn-in remains a long-term concern, though Samsung includes active cooling and screen-protection features. Samsung says burn-in from normal use is covered under warranty.
To reach 4K performance at 240Hz, you need powerful graphics hardware. If you play games at lower frame rates or do not prioritize OLED contrast, you may not need this monitor's capabilities.
