The Samsung Odyssey 3D does 3D right, but it costs way too much and does way too little

Summary

Nutrition label

60% Informative

The Samsung Odyssey 3D uses a lenticular lens to direct different images to each eye.

Eye tracking makes sure the lens is always showing the content to your face, no matter how you duck and weave in front of the screen.

The 3D effect is stellar for cartoonish or stylized games.

The display requires special Reality Hub software you have to install yourself.

It does not support 3D movies, either.

The Odyssey 3D is the first of its kind, and early adopters of new tech will always pay more.

The only hope is that Samsung adds more supported games in the future.

I would love to see this monitor tech become more available, with broader support for more games and different options for resolution at a cheaper price.
