    Tons of features! If only I could decipher them!

    I consider myself a very tech savvy person and to be honest this monitor just wasn't for me. I've had many Sony TVs but never a gaming monitor. I usually prefer brands like Acer, MSI, ROG Strix because they can offer 240Hz. For competitive games, 240 Hz is preferred; However, a 144Hz monitor can be just as good if it delivers a consistent 1ms response time. However since this is reporting 1ms G2G I decided to give it a try! SONY INZONE It's pretty easy to set up. What surprised me is that this…

    Sony's Inzone M9 brings many features to the table. With gorgeous colors, 144Hz, refresh rate customization, array local dimming, and more, this is the option to consider if you're looking to maximize your experience. But is it worth it?

    This monitor is my first introduction to the world of 4K monitors and it was an interesting experience to say the least. My use case, unlike many of the reviews I've seen, is a blank computer monitor. I'm a gamer although my gaming pc is a bit older and i play 4k although it may not work on the ultra seats on my pc. This review looks at this monitor from the perspective of an average budget gamer as well as someone who uses their monitor for word processing and other work-related tasks…

    Amazing screen quality for games and movies

    Our daughter was building her own gaming PC and needed a new monitor to match her amazing gaming PC. This 27" Sony INZONE M9 4K HDR 144Hz gaming monitor is beyond amazing. The graphics quality is amazing. You can tell it instantly from our old ASUS serial monitor. This monitor is a powerhouse. The colors and pixel density are fantastic.

    Great all-rounder with excellent image quality

    Sony Inzone M9 arrived very protected in 3 boxes. Assembly is quick and easy, just 2 stand screws and you're done. As with all my other high-end displays, the build quality is good. The display is stable on my desk. The internal speakers are pretty much useless, but might be okay for a conference call. The different colored LEDs on the back are nice but not very efficient as they are not very bright. Apart from the power supply and cable, no other cable is included in the scope of delivery. I…

    Great monitor with buggy firmware

    The monitor has a great screen - nice deep blacks and very good colors with HDR. However, it cannot be used with PS5 because the firmware has problems with HDR handshake with PS5. The monitor searches for a signal across all ports several times within an hour. Disabling auto-detect has stopped scanning, but continues to search for a signal on the selected input. Other times it doesn't scan and just loses the HDR handshake and you end up with a blurry screen. It's crazy what's happening with the

    Great product for gaming

    I've been using this monitor for several days and am really impressed. The colors are amazing and really come alive. Although I mostly play on PC, I was impressed with how good it looks. That 144Hz is so smooth and 1ms eliminates any blur I've had in games. Even when I watched a movie on it, it looked sharp and clean. After looking at some reviews online I was very curious if the benefit of Full Array Local Dimming would be noticed and it was absolutely noticeable. I also tested the Versa…

    Not surprised, but definitely impressed.

    I wanted to move my gaming rig in one place and remove it from the main TV. I play on PS5 and have a gaming PC with an Nvidia GeForce card with G-Sync. The picture quality is impressive. The difference with my TV setup, which is 4K, is a marked improvement in faster on-screen movement. I play FPS and sports games like FIFA and Madden so the screen doesn't change much in sports games, but the movement in an FPS game is noticeably cleaner. I still use the stand and have no plans to install it…

    Amazing picture quality!

    I've wanted to switch from 1080P 144Hz for a long time and when I saw this I had to try it. Firstly, no cables other than power cables are supplied. Some other reviews have given it lower stars for this, but it makes perfect sense to me; Phones are now doing this with charging boxes to keep the price down etc. Also I already have cables so I don't think this is a problem. That's over now, let's move on to the monitor itself. Needed a screwdriver to assemble the stand. Not a big deal but wanted…

    Careful. Quality Control Issues (Third Times The Charm)

    Updated and partially edited. Bought a Dell and Razer monitor this year with no problems. Pros: Clear text. I would say on par with Dell Ultrasharp. Cons: No video cables included, no HDMI, no DisplayPort. I don't really like the stand. In any case with the holder. Complaint: Local dimming is mostly normal but sometimes noticeable, but in extreme cases. Example: mouse on a completely black background. See my picture with the mouse pointer. You can see a greyish tint. I pre-ordered it directly…

    Excellent picture quality and some other nice features

    This is my first "gaming monitor" and I can definitely see the difference in the video quality you get. Between the higher refresh rate and the display characteristics themselves, everything looks great on screen. To get the most out of this monitor, you really need to pair it with a powerful graphics card or a lot of power is wasted. One thing I didn't know is that the monitor actually has built-in speakers. I only discovered this when I set up my monitor and wasn't using the BT headset I…

    Picture quality at the highest level

    Several other users have reported no issues with image quality. You can turn on HDR and forget it, and everything from SDR to HDR will look great. Unlike my previous monitor where I had to adjust it manually otherwise the colors would look unnatural and washed out on non-HDR content. Contrast is excellent with deep blacks and bright whites while preserving every detail; It won't give you a perfect pitch black, but you don't want that anyway because that same depth tends to contain detail.

    Too expensive look elsewhere

    I wanted this monitor as soon as it was announced by Sony. This monitor had everything I wanted/needed: 4K @ 144Hz (120Hz from HDMI), HDR, built-in speakers, and four (4) display output ports (1 Displayport, 2 HDMI 2.1 ports, and USB-C ALT). I knew it would be expensive but I don't mind paying extra for a quality product. I also have many other great Sony products (Sony A7IV and several G2 lenses, PlayStation systems). The monitor freezes every few days and I have to turn it off to restart. I…

    4K 27-inch monitor: my review

    We chose this 27" Sony Inzone M9 to set up my daughter's gaming PC, which she built herself. We chose the brand because she's a good kid and she deserves it. For a number of years now She's hoping to take him to college next year without having to worry about an extension And that means you need to get some 4k as it's the only way to run the best devices currently being released .it's been about a week now.They say it's made for PS5 but I have to assume there is synergy in the game and this…

    I needed a really good monitor. I found one!

    This monitor is exactly what I was looking for. Recently retired as a network administrator. For years I have used a certain brand of computers and monitors that we use throughout the company. Now my eyes suffer from years of monitor exposure. When I set up this monitor, I couldn't believe the clarity of the text on the screen, the vivid depth of color, and the smoothness of the images as they moved across the screen. I can adjust this screen to a level that suits my eyes. From an old man's…

    The value for money of this Sony does not surprise me

    I use it as a monitor and TV. If I use it for gaming (in the future) I will update this review. As both a monitor and a TV, this device is above average, but not by much. The picture quality of both inputs does not convince me at all. When I received this, I thought, "God, Sony! I can't wait to be impressed!' For the way I've been using it so far, for TV and as a monitor, it's no better than the other branded monitor I've been using for the past 4 years. Maybe that will change I'll have my…

    Unbelievable but kind of expensive

    I'm a HUGE Sony fan, I have Sony TVs, headphones, cameras, even my car stereo is installed in Sony aftermarket. I was very, very excited to try this monitor. And I have to say. This is a great upgrade from my old one (but to be honest my old gaming monitor was 1440p). 4K resolution at this size is like a retina display - it feels like you need a magnifying glass to see pixels. I also like the style - the design is very reminiscent of a modern Playstation and would be great as a monitor for PS5…

    The best gaming monitor I've ever had

    This is the third monitor I have had in the last few years. I decided to upgrade and spent a little more than previous monitors and Sony fully justified itself. Pros: - No input lag - Image quality is incredible. Colors are accurate and vibrant. The black level doesn't disappoint as it's a full array of LEDs and not Oled. - Setup was easy. A few screws for the base and you're done. Love the cable routing through the stand - putting some LEDs up behind the monitor. From where you enter my room…

    Extremely disappointed.

    Colors looked washed out. Everything looked pale from the packaging. I calibrated according to information from the Internet, but the image quality was still not very good. The optics are an absolute disappointment. The stand is wobbly and can only move the screen up or down. Speakers are a joke. It doesn't cost any money. look elsewhere Sony failed.
