Quick verdict
The Odyssey OLED G6 G60SF is a straightforward, high-quality 500Hz OLED. Tom's Hardware called it about as close to perfect as a gaming monitor gets, praising its accurate out-of-box color, deep contrast, premium metal build, and responsiveness. Samsung markets a Glare Free low-reflection finish for the Odyssey OLED line.
It is simpler than the MSI 500Hz alternative: DisplayPort 1.4 instead of 2.1, and no USB-C or KVM. If you only connect a gaming PC, that hardly matters.

No. The G60F is a 350Hz IPS monitor. The G60SF is the 500Hz QD-OLED.
