As a display enthusiast, I was curious to see what Sony would bring to the table with its new line of Inzone monitors and based on first impressions, the results are interesting. After all, the initial lineup of Sony-developed PC monitors were good enough and had an interesting PS5-adjacent design, yet were nothing special in a crowded and competitive gaming monitor market. These two new monitors are much more my cup of tea – especially the £1199 Inzone M10S, which boasts an exciting 1440p 480Hz OLED panel that pushes the boundaries of motion clarity.
While clearly aimed at esports enthusiasts, especially with its optional 24.5-inch screen size mode and FPS Pro+ picture mode developed in cooperation with esports team Fnatic, my impression is that this is also a suitable monitor for someone interested in image quality as well.
Specifically, Sony is utilizing an MLA-infused panel with peak brightness up to 1300 nits. Combined with the 480Hz refresh rate, this is a killer spec sheet that allows extremely clean motion clarity that nearly eliminates any semblance of persistence blur while offering a very bright image alongside it. I only had a chance to briefly sample some gameplay on the monitor and only at 480Hz input but walked away wanting more. I need to do more testing with HDR content, refresh rates and resolutions, of course, but it’s pretty dazzling on the face of it.

The M10S supports all the expected monitor features, of course, including VRR, Nvidia G-Sync and adaptive sync and, most importantly, both DisplayPort 2.1 and HDMI 2.1 – meaning that it’s also a good fit for game consoles such as the PlayStation 5, if you so desire.
