Just an okay monitor
||Posted . Owned for more than 2 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Poor build quality. The actual display is alright; it’s limited dimming zones are gonna look fine but at this price point you have a lot more options to choose from now.

Posted .Hi DarnayS, Thanks for the feedback. We're glad that you are impressed with the performance of your new Sony Gaming Monitor. Explore gaming worlds full of brilliant depth and detail. Our 27" INZONE M9 gaming monitor with 4K HDR, Full Array Local Dimming, IPS and over 95% DCI-P3 coverage fills scenes with supreme contrast and color. You’ll react faster too with a 144 Hz refresh rate and IPS 1 ms GtG. Ghosting or inverse ghosting may appear during fast gameplay when the Response time is set to Faster. This is due to excessive panel overdrive which may cause slight yet noticeable visual artifacts in the image. To avoid ghosting or inverse ghosting, change the Response time to Standard or Fast. Sometimes cables are the easiest cause for these concerns. We also recommend using a High Speed HDMI cable or the latest version of a display port cable. Thank you for choosing SONY! ~Craig

Perfect for PS5
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This monitor brings out the best in what the PS5 console offers.

Posted .Hi Dro713,
Choosing this gaming monitor will definitely be worth it! We're so delighted to hear that you like the 4K HDR visuals and you are also enjoying the amazing low input lag of this gaming monitor, delivering a very responsive gaming experience. Your feedback regarding some light leakage on the unit is very much appreciated. To reduce the blooming or halo effect, try to set the Local dimming to Low or Off.

Signal Issues (Buyer Beware)
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Listen the monitor has good image quality for only 97 zones I will give it that. Perfect all the time no but if you plan to mainly game you wont see many issues so long as you can deal with blooming here and there. Now here is the major issue. I have had a case open with Sony since the monitor launched because of all the signal issues (Random disconnects when playing console and signal handshake issues while changing sources) I have had with it. Today Sony called me back and offered a buy back for the monitor. They seem more interested in closing the case than fixing the product a this point. They noted to me they have no idea how long it will take to fix the monitor (or if they can but that is me being skeptical). Just wanted to inform anyone looking at this monitor.

Not that great
||Posted . Owned for 5 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Monitor would lose signal at times. Would need to turn it off then back on to get it to work. It would also display a line through the middle at times. I updated to the most recent version it fixed the line appearing at times. For the price this goes I would recommend looking at different monitors.

Posted .Hi there, Thanks for the review and feedback. We're sorry that you are not impressed with the performance of your new monitor. Please make sure the DisplayPort cable is connected securely with your device. You can unplug the cable and plug it back again to isolate the issue. If still unresolved, you can also use a different DisplayPort cable to further isolate the issue. Feel free to test the monitor again and verify if it resolves the issue. Hope this helps.

Beautiful but too complicated to operate.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.PROS: Excellent display, easy assembly CONS: No instructions to operate the push button menu, failed to connect to DP input, screen the saver shutdown results in loss of any data in the process. RESULT: Promptly returned for refund.

||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.When VRR is enabled it affected response time and flickered. If VRR was off it played great. I exchanged 3 times and ended up just returning. Additionally the "TV" features were annoying.

High hopes..didn’t live up
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I really wanted to like this monitor, and i did loke a lot about it, however i ran into too many techincal issuea that i had to return it. While gaming, the screen would go black randomly and search for an input. Tried different cords, played around with settings, but nothing worked. It didnt have all the time but enough to interrupt mysession and cause fristartion. The fastest mode creates a lot of glitches too so much so that you csnt really play on it. The picture wuality is really good but too many issues to deal with for the price you pay. I got the LG Oled monitor instead and that is way better for a similar price.

Posted .Hi Samuel,
We regret to hear that you were not completely satisfied with the INZONE M9. Your feedback is extremely important to us and is very much appreciated. For optimum performance, it is recommended to install the latest software version of the monitor. It is also recommended to use a High Speed HDMI cable or the latest version of a display port cable. Sometimes cables are the easiest cause for concern and fix most issues. If multiple devices are connected to the monitor, you do have the option to disable the auto input search to manually select a specific input.
Thanks again for sharing your review and we hope you will consider Sony for your future purchases.
