Sony Teams Up with Fnatic to Craft the Ultimate OLED Gaming Monitor

Big things are happening in the world of gaming monitors! Sony just dropped not one, but two new additions to their INZONE lineup — and they’ve brought in none other than esports powerhouse Fnatic for a little expert guidance. It’s like the gaming gods have blessed us with some serious screen upgrades!

Meet the INZONE M10S and INZONE M9 II, two OLED monitors that cater to the hardcore gaming crowd, but also to those who just want a crisper, smoother visual experience in their setup. Whether you’re going head-to-head in an intense shooter or just chilling with some single-player adventures, these displays were made to elevate your game.

The INZONE M10S — Speed and Precision, Perfect for Esports

Let’s talk about the INZONE M10S first, because, well, this one’s a beast. It’s rocking a 27-inch, 1440p OLED screen with a mind-bending 480Hz refresh rate! And no, that’s not a typo. Imagine pulling off those lightning-fast flick shots or dodging attacks before the enemy even sees you move—this monitor is built for players who need that edge in competitive gaming. With Fnatic’s influence, it’s clear that everything about the M10S is designed with esports performance in mind.

The OLED panel also promises some gorgeous contrast, with deep blacks and vivid colors that make everything pop. Plus, with a super-fast response time (we’re talking 0.03ms), ghosting and motion blur should be a thing of the past. Whether you’re sprinting through a battlefield or on the move in a racing game, the M10S is all about keeping things buttery smooth.

The INZONE M9 II — Essential for Performance, Great for Visuals

On the flip side, the INZONE M9 II is here for those who want top-tier performance without going all the way to 480Hz. It’s a 27-inch 1440p OLED monitor too, but this one is targeting a wider range of gamers. With a slightly more toned-down refresh rate (still high enough for most), it’s great for anything from competitive to casual play.

While it might not have the extreme speed of the M10S, the M9 II still packs a punch in the picture quality department. OLED’s known for its stunning visuals, and this 1440p resolution is perfect for gamers who want a balance between performance and eye-candy. Expect great color accuracy, contrast, and a premium viewing experience, whether you’re gaming or watching your favorite streamers.

Fnatic x Sony: A Winning Collaboration

The coolest part of this whole release is the collaboration with Fnatic. You know these guys aren’t messing around when it comes to gaming gear. Fnatic’s expertise in esports has clearly influenced the design and performance tweaks of these monitors, meaning you’re not just getting another display; you’re getting a screen that’s built by professionals, for professionals (and wannabe professionals, too). Both the M10S and the M9 II are designed to suit the needs of players looking for every possible advantage in fast-paced gaming.

No Release Date? No Worries, Keep Your Eyes Peeled

While there’s no exact release date on these monitors yet, knowing Sony and Fnatic, it’s probably not too far off. Until then, you might want to start thinking about which model fits your needs. Do you want the raw speed of the INZONE M10S or the balanced performance of the INZONE M9 II? Either way, these screens are going to have serious hype behind them. Start saving those pennies, because once these babies drop, they could be game-changers for your rig.

Pro-tip: If you do grab the M10S, make sure your PC setup is up to the task! A 480Hz refresh rate needs serious horsepower to take advantage of all those frames, especially in fast-paced games like CS:GO, Valorant, or Overwatch 2. Aim for a high-end graphics card (think NVIDIA RTX 40-series or AMD RX 7000-series), and don’t forget—your CPU has to pull its weight as well!
