Samsung begins next-gen V-Stripe OLED mass production with 360Hz panels

Samsung confirms mass production of next-generation 34-inch OLED Stripe monitors

Samsung has confirmed it has begun mass production of next-generation QD-OLED monitors featuring a new “V-Stripe” technology. Specifically, Samsung has started mass-producing new 34-inch QD OLED panels and is reportedly supplying seven monitor manufacturers with this new screen tech. This includes ASUS, MSI, and Gigabyte.

With Samsung’s new “V-Stripe” sub-pixel layout, the company has moved away from a triangular sub-pixel arrangement toward vertical stripes (hence “V-Stripe”). This new layout dramatically improves text sharpness. Samsung’s new V-Stripe OLED monitors are better suited to text-heavy workloads. In other words, this new screen tech is better for coders, writers, readers, or anyone who edits documents. Even web browsing is improved.

Alongside their new “V-Stripe” sub-pixel layout, these QD-OLED monitors feature peak brightness of 1,300 nits, a 21:9 aspect ratio, and a maximum refresh rate of 360Hz. Sadly, Samsung has not unveiled the resolution of these new panels. However, we expect to learn more at CES 2026. My guess is that these screens support a resolution of 3440×1440.

In effect, V-Stripe is Samsung’s answer to LG’s new RGB Stripe OLED monitor tech. That said, both technologies have been unveiled at a similar time, and it remains to be seen which company will be first to market.
