Inzone Monitors and Headsets for PC and PS5

Here are the details of the new lines.


INZONE Monitors – M9 and M3

The two Inzone displays are personal monitors with a focus on high refresh rates and low latency response times, geared towards first-person shooters. One of Sony’s key descriptors was allowing players to achieve ‘victory’ and gain advantages over others.

The higher-range M9 is a 4K display, with an additional set of features geared toward high contrast images, while the lower-range M3 is a 1080p display solely focused on delivering fast response.

Thes monitors will also have specific features catered to use with the PlayStation 5. The displays will automatically switch picture modes depending on whether you’re playing a game, or watching a movie on the console.

The Inzone monitors will begin shipping in August 2022.
