Samsung Display Markets QD-OLED At Gamescom

Samsung Display showcased its quantum dot, or QD, organic light-emitting diode, or OLED, panels at Gamescom 2026, held in Cologne, Germany, from August 30 local time. The company collaborated with major game developers, including Capcom, Krafton, and CD Projekt Red, to market the panels at their respective booths.

At Capcom's booth, 90 QD-OLED gaming monitors were installed to let visitors experience Capcom's current and upcoming titles, such as "Pragmata," "Street Fighter 6," and "Dragon’s Dogma 2: Dark Arisen." Similarly, Krafton's booth featured 85 monitors displaying three upcoming titles, including "Project Zeta" and "Age Twister," along with a technology video on QD-OLED's Pentile Tandem structure.

CD Projekt Red showcased a trailer for the expansion pack of "The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt" on a QD-OLED TV and allowed visitors to test gaming monitors. Samsung Display highlighted the fast response speed of its QD-OLED panels at 0.03ms, enabling it to render scenes from dark screens to vivid sequences.

The company officially announced plans to begin full-scale mass production of a 24.5-inch FHD QD-OLED panel within the year. This size is preferred by FPS gamers and e-sports players as it allows for easy viewing of the entire screen. Samsung Display's current market share of QD-OLED panels for monitors stands at about 75%, according to Omdia, with shipments totaling approximately 2.5 million units last year.

The company aims to expand its influence in the professional gaming market using this product and will continue supplying a range of sizes, including the 24.5-inch model.
