Samsung’s new 16-inch OLED panel wants to make your laptop feel like a gaming monitor
Samsung Display unveiled a 16-inch OLED laptop panel that hits 300Hz, the fastest refresh rate ever seen on a self-emissive laptop screen.
Samsung Display unveiled a groundbreaking 16-inch OLED panel at IMID 2026 in Busan, engineered specifically for laptops and boasting a remarkable 300Hz refresh rate. This is the first self-emissive laptop display to reach such a high refresh rate, promising smoother motion for tasks like scrolling, video editing, and gaming on the go.
Traditionally, high refresh rates have been confined to gaming laptops with dedicated GPUs, but this new panel could be integrated into slimmer, lighter laptops as well. Additionally, Samsung showcased a 31.5-inch QD-OLED monitor with a 360Hz refresh rate and a 34-inch QD-OLED gaming monitor with a 360Hz refresh rate and a 21:9 ultrawide aspect ratio.
These displays were presented in the Winning Game Arena, targeting gamers and creators. While the exact release date of the 16-inch panel remains unknown, Samsung's display technology could soon prompt laptop manufacturers to highlight refresh rates similarly to gaming monitor brands.
