With higher resolutions like 1440p and 4K making gains in its number of users every year, 1080p is still the gold standard and it’s easy to see why.
Most software – for both productivity and gaming – is still made with 1080p in mind foremost, as this resolution is much easier to drive for PC hardware. Most of the content that exists on the internet (especially for streaming) is still in this resolution and even small things like proper text scaling and icon sizes are usually best when kept to 1080p.
Looking at Steam, the biggest PC gaming platform in the world, and 55.35 percent of users still have 1920×1080 as the resolution of their screen in May 2025. That number even had a small increase compared to Steam’s last hardware survey, showing that 1080p isn’t going anywhere any time soon.
Despite this popularity and huge market demand, the companies making 1080p monitors seem to have stalled out by saving all the innovation for higher resolution monitors. Samsung is not one of those companies as it’s offering the Samsung LS24DG302 24″ Odyssey G3 Monitor to South Africa as one of the best-positioned monitors in the market.
Samsung has done this by offering more features in this monitor, starting with that big, beautiful 24-inch screen that gives you a lot of space for both work and play. Gamers will especially be happy with all the features catered to them such as one millisecond response time and a refresh rate of 180Hz. With just 60Hz being seen as the best default for refresh rates, and 120Hz seen as an upgrade over that, Samsung has blown expectations out of the water at 180Hz.
This makes the Samsung LS24DG302 24″ Odyssey G3 Monitor an absolute gem for all games, especially esports and simulation titles. And, again, because the resolution is still at 1080p, even older PCs can reach this high refresh rate with ease. Samsung has combined this with AMD FreeSync so you can enjoy higher refresh rates without tearing and stuttering.
This isn’t the end of the features on this screen. You will also find Eye Saver Mode which reduces strain on your vision, Flicker Free technology which also helps with eye strain while reducing distractions and even Eco Saver Mode to reduce power consumption.
This monitor is enclosed in a sleek black chassis with thin bezels which make multi-monitor setups a breeze. This is all supported by an ergonomic stand that keeps it level without taking up too much desk space. This stand hides another secret too on top of adjustability for height, tilt and swivel: the ability to fully pivot the monitor into a vertical position. Stands like this used to be locked away and reserved for much more expensive options, but it’s available here as standard.
The Samsung LS24DG302 24″ Odyssey G3 Monitor is available in South Africa right now with an RRP of just R2 999 including VAT. At this price, you will be hard-pressed to find a monitor of this size, with these features and made by a company known for quality like Samsung.
This great local pricing is another way that Samsung is innovating in the space and you can pick your new monitor up from several retailers both online and in-store today.
