Samsung announced in a press release that the first OLED panel for notebooks with a refresh rate of up to 90 Hz will offer. Joo Sun Choi, Display Chief Executive Officer at Samsung, announced that already in March very large numbers of items 14 – inch panels with 90 Hz should be available. This speaks primarily for use in ultrabooks, but Samsung also speaks of use in gaming in this context.

The resolution of the panels was not revealed. The maximum brightness and the aspect ratio are not yet known. Samsung assures, however, that the performance of the new OLED panel corresponds to that of a 120 Hz fast LCDs and comparable motion blur as well Response time.

Notebooks with OLED displays are already available on the market, but so far the maximum frame rate has usually been 60 Hz. This makes the currently available models rather unsuitable for gamers, although the gaming experience is undoubtedly due to the high Contrasts and almost perfect black levels would benefit.

It remains to be seen when the first manufacturers of gaming notebooks will make use of the new OLED panels and whether they will keep what Samsung promises.
