The gaming monitors that caught our eye at CES 2026

LG UltraGear GX7 boasts impressive brightness, while Samsung's Odyssey 3D monitor takes a bold leap into uncharted territory with its glasses-free 3D capabilities. Meanwhile, ASUS has taken a dual approach to OLED technology, combining the benefits of Tandem OLED with its own unique RGB Stripe layout. ViewSonic and MSI also entered the fray, pushing out monitors that are more affordable but just as performant.

The 27-inch LG UltraGear GX7 stands out for its record-breaking brightness and smooth gaming performance. This monitor features LG Display's 4th-gen RGB Tandem 2.0 OLED technology, offering superior color accuracy and contrast ratios. The Dual Mode feature allows gamers to switch between high image quality at 540Hz and faster gameplay at 720Hz.

Samsung's Odyssey 3D monitor takes a risk with its glasses-free 3D capabilities, which offer an immersive gaming experience. This monitor features a massive 6K resolution and supports both NVIDIA G-Sync and AMD FreeSync Premium. It also boasts Samsung's Dual Mode feature, allowing gamers to switch between low-motion mode at 165Hz and high-speed mode at 330Hz.

ASUS ROG Swift OLED PG27UCWM is another contender in the OLED monitor market. This 27-inch monitor features ASUS' RGB Stripe layout technology, which provides sharper text and better color accuracy than traditional QD-OLED panels. The monitor also boasts a high refresh rate of 240Hz and a 0.03ms response time.

ViewSonic VX2738 2K OLED Gaming Monitor is another option for those looking for an affordable OLED gaming monitor. This 27-inch monitor features a 4th-gen Tandem QD-OLED panel with a 240Hz refresh rate, making it ideal for fast-paced games.

MSI MPG 341CQR QD-OLED X36 takes the cake in terms of sheer specs, boasting a massive 34-inch curved display with a 360Hz refresh rate and a 0.03ms response time. This monitor also features MSI's new V-stripe QD-OLED tech for improved text clarity.

HP HyperX Omen OLED 34 is another contender that packs a punch in terms of performance and features. This 34-inch curved monitor boasts a high refresh rate, customizable headphone hook, and 100W USB-C power delivery.

Finally, Acer's Predator XB273U F6 Gaming Monitor stands out for its absurdly fast 500Hz refresh rate by default. The monitor also features a 2,560 x 1,440 IPS panel with 95% DCI-P3 and 99% sRGB color gamut coverage. It will be available in Q2 2026 for $800.

These are just some of the top contenders in the OLED gaming monitor market right now. Each offers unique features, specifications, and price points that cater to different needs and budgets.
 
๐Ÿค” these new OLED monitors r insane ๐Ÿš€ I mean, 4K on a 27in is still kinda small for me, but if you wanna game at the highest settings all day, it's probably worth it ๐Ÿ’ธ ViewSonic and MSI are really showing off their budget-friendly options here, but I'm curious to see how long those sweet 240Hz refresh rates hold up in long gaming sessions ๐Ÿ•บ
 
I'm so hyped about these new monitors! ๐Ÿคฉ The fact that Samsung's Odyssey 3D monitor is going all-in on glasses-free 3D is either gonna be a game-changer or a total disaster. I mean, who needs more immersion than actual motion? But at the same time, I can see how it could be cool to have that kind of experience without having to wear fancy goggles.

ASUS's RGB Stripe tech sounds like a solid win, though - sharper text and better color accuracy are always gonna be a plus for gamers. And ViewSonic's affordable option is great for those on a budget who still wanna get in on the OLED action.

But what's really got me thinking is how these monitors are pushing the boundaries of gaming tech. Like, we're talking 6K resolution and 500Hz refresh rates - that's some next-level stuff! It's gonna be interesting to see how all these new features integrate with actual games...
 
I think these new monitors are gonna blow our minds ๐Ÿคฏ๐Ÿ“บ! I mean, Samsung's Odyssey 3D tech is wild, it feels like you're really inside the game ๐ŸŽฎ. And ASUS's RGB Stripe layout on their Swift OLED PG27UCWM is giving me life ๐ŸŒŸ. But at the same time, I'm loving that ViewSonic and MSI are bringing affordable options to the table ๐Ÿ’ธ.

I'm also super curious about Acer's Predator XB273U F6 Gaming Monitor, 500Hz by default? That's insane! ๐Ÿ‘€ I think what excites me most is how these monitors are pushing the boundaries of gaming performance and visuals. It's gonna be wild to see which one comes out on top in terms of overall gaming experience ๐Ÿ†. Can't wait for reviews and hands-on tests to come out ๐Ÿ’ป!
 
the competition is getting fierce with all these monitors hitting the market. i mean, lg's ultra gear gx7 is looking sharp with its 540hz and 720hz modes ๐Ÿคฏ but at $1000 it's a bit steep for me. samsung's odyssey 3d monitor on the other hand takes a bold risk with those glasses-free 3d capabilities, might not be for everyone though ๐Ÿ˜’

asus is doing well with its rgb stripe layout tech and viewsonic is keeping things affordable. msli'm loving the specs on the mgp 341cqr but at $1200 it's just out of my budget ๐Ÿค‘ meanwhile acer's predator xb273u f6 is taking the cake with that insane 500hz refresh rate, if you can afford it ๐Ÿ’ธ
 
I think these new monitors are gonna change the game big time ๐Ÿคฉ! I mean, you got your high-end options like LG's GX7 with its insane brightness and smooth gaming performance, Samsung's 3D monitor that's taking a bold leap into uncharted territory... what's not to love about that? ๐Ÿ˜Ž

And then you got the more affordable options like ViewSonic and MSI, which still pack some serious punch in terms of performance and features. The fact that ASUS is combining Tandem OLED with its own RGB Stripe layout is super interesting too. ๐Ÿค”

For me, it's all about finding that sweet spot between price, performance, and features. I don't need a 500Hz refresh rate just yet, but I do want a monitor that can handle fast-paced games without any lag or ghosting. The Acer Predator XB273U F6 seems like a solid choice for that. ๐Ÿ“Š

I'm also curious to see how the gaming market responds to these new monitors, especially with 3D capabilities and all. Will it be a game-changer? Only time will tell! ๐Ÿ˜ƒ
 
๐Ÿคฃ I mean, who needs a social life when you've got 3D gaming monitors with glasses-free tech ๐Ÿ•ถ๏ธ? Samsung's Odyssey 3D monitor is like the wild child of the gaming world โ€“ either it's going to blow your mind or crash and burn ๐Ÿ’ฅ. And don't even get me started on the prices, I mean, Acer's Predator XB273U F6 Gaming Monitor for $800? That's like buying a new console every week ๐Ÿ˜‚.

And what's up with all these monitors having insane refresh rates? 500Hz? 360Hz? It's like they're trying to give gamers a heart attack ๐Ÿป๐Ÿ’–. I'm just over here like, can't we just stick with 144Hz and call it a day? ๐Ÿ˜…
 
can't believe they're all going for so much brightness now its just gonna hurt your eyes after a while, samsung's 3d tech is kinda gimmicky though, who needs glasses-free 3d anyway? and what's with the prices, acer's 500hz monitor is gonna break the bank lol. view sonic and msii are the ones offering affordable options but still i'm not convinced they can keep up with lg's rgb stripe tech ๐Ÿค”๐Ÿ‘€
 
Im impressed by these new OLED monitors ๐Ÿคฏ. I think the biggest draw is gonna be the Samsung's Odyssey 3D monitor with glasses-free 3D capabilities ๐Ÿ’ฅ. It sounds like a game-changer for immersive gaming experiences. But, at the same time, I'm also excited to see how affordable options like ViewSonic and MSI will shake up the market ๐Ÿค‘. ASUS' RGB Stripe layout tech is pretty cool too, and I'd love to try out the LG UltraGear GX7's 4th-gen RGB Tandem 2.0 OLED tech ๐Ÿ”ฅ. What do you guys think about these new monitors?
 
omg i'm so hyped about these new OLED gaming monitors! like, samsung's odyssey 3d is taking a huge risk with its glasses-free 3D capabilities but if it works out then it could be a game changer for gamers ๐Ÿคฏ. lg ultra gear gx7 is also a beast with its record-breaking brightness and smooth gaming performance. but i'm not sure if $2000 is too steep for me ๐Ÿ˜ฉ. asus' rgb stripe layout tech sounds so cool, maybe they should collaborate with razer? ViewSonic's view 2738 2k OLED gaming monitor seems like a great value for the price, it's affordable and still packs a punch ๐Ÿค‘. MSI's mgp 341cqr qd-oled x36 is just straight fire tho, who needs 500hz when you can have 360Hz? ๐Ÿคฏ
 
I'm low-key hyped about these new OLED gaming monitors ๐Ÿ˜Ž. The specs on these monitors are insane, especially Samsung's Odyssey 3D with those crazy-fast refresh rates. I mean, who wouldn't want to play games in a glasses-free 3D? It's like something out of a sci-fi movie ๐Ÿš€. But at the same time, I'm also loving how affordable some of these monitors are, like the ViewSonic and MSI options. You can get a top-notch OLED gaming monitor without breaking the bank ๐Ÿ’ธ. The one thing that's got me excited is the potential for this tech to take gaming to the next level โ€“ we're talking about 4K, 5K, even 6K resolutions? Mind blown ๐Ÿคฏ.

Omg I'm so hyped for these new OLED gaming monitors!!! ๐Ÿคฏ The specs on this LG UltraGear GX7 are insane, 540Hz is like whoa! ๐Ÿ˜ฒ And the Samsung Odyssey 3D monitor's glasses-free 3D feature sounds so cool, it's like a whole new level of immersion. ๐Ÿ’ฅ I'm also loving the ASUS ROG Swift OLED PG27UCWM's RGB Stripe layout tech, it's like they took traditional QD-OLED panels and made them even sharper ๐ŸŽฏ. And can we talk about MSI's MPG 341CQR QD-OLED X36 for a sec? That curved display with 360Hz is like the ultimate gaming experience ๐Ÿ˜ฒ. What I'm most excited about is that these monitors are all affordable, you don't have to break the bank to get an amazing gaming experience ๐Ÿ’ธ. Acer's Predator XB273U F6 Gaming Monitor is also super interesting, that 500Hz refresh rate by default is wild! ๐Ÿคฏ
 
omg i really need a new gaming monitor lol i mean i've been using my old one for like 5 years now ๐Ÿคฆโ€โ™‚๏ธ the specs on these new ones are insane 360Hz refresh rate is crazy! but what's with all the glasses-free 3D stuff? does that even work? ๐Ÿค” and why do they have to be so expensive? $800 for a monitor is just too much ๐Ÿ’ธ
 
What's up with all these sick monitors ๐Ÿคฏ! I mean, who doesn't want a 6K resolution and glasses-free 3D capabilities? It's like something out of a sci-fi movie ๐Ÿ˜ฎ. But for real, the prices are getting crazy. $800 for an Acer monitor that just comes with a default 500Hz refresh rate? That's wild ๐Ÿ’ธ. I'm more about the tech, though. The ASUS RGB Stripe layout is looking pretty cool ๐Ÿ”ฅ, and the MSI V-stripe QD-OLED tech sounds like it'll give me some serious gaming edge ๐Ÿ”ช. Anyways, gotta stay in the loop for these new monitor releases โ€“ they're pushing the limits of what's possible ๐Ÿ“ˆ!
