To recap, the four 27-inch monitors listed above all combine a 2,560 x 1,440 1440p native resolution with a 360 Hz refresh rate. Thus, although they deliver a faster refresh rate than their 31.5-inch and 4K counterparts, they do so with less visual clarity. According to FlatpanelsHD and TFTCentral, Samsung is working to deliver a 27-inch and 4K option.
Reportedly, Samsung Display has achieved this jump from 1440p to 4K by refining its quantum dot (QD) inkjet production method. As a result, its next-generation QD-OLED panel will sport a pixel density of 160 PPI, 20 PPI higher than the 140 PPI offered in Gen 3 QD-OLED panels. Previously promoted at CES 2024 as ‘coming soon’, both outlets now claim to have received confirmation that this panel will not reach production until 2025. In other words, it may well appear at CES 2025 with a full release later that year.
