The first 240Hz OLED and QD-OLED monitors arrived this year and the first 360Hz QD-OLED monitors are expected to arrive in 2024, based on a leaked roadmap from MSI.
MSI's roadmap, which has leaked online and looks legit, includes six new QD-OLED monitors.
Listed are two 32-inch 4K 240Hz monitors (MPG-321UPX and MAG-321UPX) and two 27-inch 1440p 360Hz monitors (MPG-321UPX and MAG-271QPX), plus a 49-inch MPG-491CQP and a 34-inch MAG-341CQP.

360Hz is the next step for OLED
The 360Hz monitors are particularly interesting as this represent the next step for OLED gaming monitors after 240Hz.
Due to OLED's extremely fast response time, a 360Hz OLED panel would equate or exceed a 500Hz LCD panel.
MSI's 360Hz monitors are listed as 27-inch QD-OLED displays with 2560x1440 resolution.
This lines up with the previously leaked (April 2023) roadmap from Samsung Display. Another leaked roadmap from the same time suggested that LG Display is planning to start production of an even faster 480Hz OLED panel in Q3 2024.

Announcements at CES 2024?
MSI's roadmap has the two 360Hz monitors listed with an "MP Date" around Q1/Q2 2024. MP Date most likely refers to 'Milestone Date' or 'Major Project Date' so we believe that this timeframe relates to the announcement – maybe at CES 2024 – rather than the availability date.
Since the QD-OLED panels are produced by Samsung Display they will most likely also appear in monitors from other brands in the near future. It remains to be seen what the price level is.
