Sony is expanding its catalog of gaming monitors today with the reveal of the Inzone M10S and Inzone M9 II. The M10S is designed as a premium, tournament-ready display–in fact, it was created in collaboration with esports team Fnatic to ensure it checked all the right boxes for professionals. The Inzone M9 II, meanwhile, is the successor to the existing M9 and should be a nice companion for your PS5.

Though it’s quite expensive, the Inzone M10S is packed with features that make it a great choice for competitive gamers. Along with a large 27-inch OLED display and 1440p resolution, it supports a blistering 480Hz refresh rate, up to 0.03ms response time, and comes with an adjustable stand that lets you quickly tilt or swivel the display. Of course, it also comes with both DisplayPort and HDMI inputs.
It’s also noticeably compact. Built with a 159mm-diameter base that’s just 4mm thick, it should free up plenty of space on your desktop for your mouse and keyboard. Here are the rest of the monitor’s specs:

Despite its lower price, the Inzone M9 II actually offers a better resolution than the M10S. Its 4K IPS display gets you a refresh rate of 160Hz, a 1ms response rate, and support for both DisplayPort and HDMI. Like its more expensive sibling, it comes with a stand that swivels and tilts. Sony gave the M9 II a refreshed design as well. Unlike the original M9, which was a nice complement to PS5 with its white and black paint job, the new monitor is all black.
This monitor is a better choice for PS5 gaming than the M10S, as the M10S only supports resolutions up to 1440p. Best of all, the M9 II received a price cut–the original M9 retailed for $900, but this new model is just $800.

If you’re interested in the old M9 and its dual-color design, you might want to snag it while you can. It appears that the M9 II will be replacing its predecessor, so it’s unclear how much longer inventory will be available at retailers.
Though it’s not new, the Sony Inzone M3 is still a great option if you need a mid-tier display for your battlestation. It’s currently on sale for $498 (was $530), and it gets you a 27-inch display, 1080p resolution, 240Hz refresh rate, and Auto HDR Tone Mapping when connected to your PS5. Consider giving it a closer look if these new monitors are a bit too expensive for your needs.
