Samsung dropped plans to roll out a bunch of OLED monitors next year and the twist is that one of them uses LG panel tech instead of their usual QD-OLED stuff. The company figures it's cheaper to buy WOLED from LG Display than make their own right now, even though they totally could.
The lineup starts with upgraded QD-OLED screens that bump specs like adding 90W USB-C power delivery and DisplayPort 2.1 on their 4K models. The real oddball is a 27-inch WOLED gaming monitor that swaps between 4K at 165Hz and FHD at 330Hz depending on what you need.
Grabbing panels from LG lets Samsung pad out their options without breaking the bank and gives them easier access to bigger WOLED inventory when they want to expand the range even more.
