Sony 27” INZONE M3 Full HD HDR 240Hz Gaming Monitor & Sony-INZONE H3 Wired Gaming Headset

An outstanding monitor! I use it for my PS5, Apple TV 4K, and PC. It delivers crystal clear picture quality for all devices and has great performance. Overall, love this monitor and would highly recommend it!Pros:- Sharp, clear 4K resolution- Plenty of connectivity ports- Slim bezels- Obviously pairs perfectly with a PS5Cons:- It can be a bit slow while initially searching for a signal after booting up, but once it gets connected it doesn’t have any issues.

100 recomend for ps5, the picture quality and response rate is top notch

STANDBY ISSUE: There are many people complaining that this monitor fails to come out of standby when connected to a computer. The root cause is a bug in the monitor firmware when dealing with Windows power management. To avoid this problem, go into Windows control panel and select Power Options. Do the Change Plan Settings and then configure the "Turn off the display" to "Never". When Windows turns off the display, the Sony M9 somehow glitches and is not able to come out of standby unless you unplug the DC power cable from behind the monitor to "reset" the monitor. You can still set the Windows screen saver to blank the screen after so many minutes.The image is excellent when turning on HDR in Windows. The brightness levels on this monitor are amazing. You just have to go into Windows Display Settings and into "Windows HD Color settings" and turn down the "HDR/SDR brightness balance" somewhat for handling white sections of the screen and youtube videos.Setting Local Dimming to High when using Windows HDR presents an excellent result. The FALD backlight sections will actually turn down so that medium brightness pixels and colors show up much more real and without that typical LCD backlight washout effect.

My first Inzone M9 was purchased from amazon and arrived promptly in an undamaged box. It was easy enough to set up, ignoring the fact that these monitors don't come with cables - I already had cables, so that's fine. The monitor has custom software that lets you manage all its settings from your PC, which is awesome, but that isn't terribly important. Installing firmware updates for this monitor is kind of a pain, but the good news is that doesn't matter much, because you shouldn't buy one.The first M9 I bought had distracting backlight problems - basically dirt or scratches *inside* the monitor that were present from the moment I first powered it on. Not the dead pixels you may be used to. Unfortunately they were close to the middle of the screen, which made them an active nuisance for image editing and other use cases. So a return was issued and I bought a new one.The second one, also from Amazon, arrived. The box had already been opened once - from the bottom for some reason - but when I took the monitor out I didn't see any damage. Unfortunately, the moment I powered it on, it became obvious that I had an even worse monitor than the first time - a massive bright purple splotch, visible the moment you power the screen on, either damage to the panel or the backlight. If you look around you can find other complaints about this problem with the M9.So, take it from me: Sony's quality control for the M9 is miserable. They don't properly check these things for damage or defects before shipping them out, so you shouldn't buy one. As a bonus, their warranty is written such that you would need a massive number of pixel failures before they would consider repairing your screen under warranty, so you can't trust 'em to take care of you if it develops issues later.It's a shame. The HDR was kinda nice.

This is a follow-up to my initial glowing review. After spending some time with it, reality set it. If you’re looking for a DP/usb-c compatible 4K@120+ display that’s under 42”, this is pretty much you’re only option right now. However, let’s talk about the negatives:- At first I thought I was unique and had received a perfect unit. But after a few days, there it was. A dead pixel 😢- HDR is laughable. Like most non-OLED displays, HDR mode is washed out, dim, and does nothing but warm up every color- Terrible viewing angles and dimmed cornersPositives:- Excellent design- Perfect screen size- Good brightness in SDR- Nice menu and gaming featuresBiggest issue. No OLED option! Please for the love Sony, release this same display with an OLED panel. Please!!! Literally no one on the market is making a an OLED 4K@120+ panel under 42” for desktopEnded up purchasing a 42” Sony OLED A90K which has an astounding picture but it’s heavy, not as cool looking, and too big for a standard desk. Also, no DP/usb-c support 😞. But for now, this and the LG C2 are all we have. So please please please Sony, release an OLED option for the M9 and you will have the perfect display for work and gaming

The media could not be loaded.  So the Sony inzone M9 is a bit on the pricey side, however it does deliver and it pairs great with the PS5 in looks as well as performance.

I will say the only thing this monitor has going for it is the picture quality though I couldn’t even give that 5 stars because of the constant 30 second or more wait every time you leave your main PS menu , game lobby or change HDR setting. Constantly having to deal with a black screen that says searching for signal is ridiculous. In game I also experienced just black screen as if the VRR was not working properly. This was all happening with a Monster 2.1 VESA certified cable . I can’t imagine how bad it would be with a cheap cable. I believe a lot of this has to do with the KVM switching and firmware.I under estimated the bad reviews about the speakers and led light bar. Neither are worth even using .The stand is as horrible as the reviews claim too. For me to have the monitor positioned 4 inches off my desk top the screen winds up being 16 inches off the back wall. This takes up way to much space and is not imo a good design.I really tried to love it because of the picture quality when it worked consistently. Keep the picture but go back to the drawing board with everything else .

Great product. Too expensive, shame about the Canada tax. It's outrageous we have to pay more for the same product that's 3-400 dollars cheaper in the US.

If you own a PlayStation 5 then this is the monitor for you it optimized everything for me and now I know I’m get the exact picture that the developers intended! I also have an Xbox and it even looks good on that!

I have been using this monitor as the main display for my M2 Max MacBook Pro for a couple of days now, upgrading from a 1440p 144hz monitor. I wanted something a bit higher resolution, but after spoiling myself with 120 Hz or higher displays on most of my other devices, the Apple Studio Display and Pro Display XDR were complete non-starters for me at 60 Hz. Since there are no 27" 5k displays on the market that go beyond 60 Hz, I had to start looking at 4k options. I was a bit worried about potential scaling artifacts, but I'm pleased to report that, using the 2x 1440p scaled resolution option (which internally renders at 5k and then downscales to 4k), I am unable to make out any individual pixels or scaling artifacts at a reasonable viewing distance (if I stick my face right up to it, then sure, I can see both). On top of that, this monitor has better black levels, a higher refresh rate, and a much lower price than the Studio Display. YMMV of course, but for me this was absolutely the right purchase.There are a few downsides I've noticed already though: for one, it takes a few seconds to wake up from standby; it's noticeably slower than my previous monitor. I'm already looking into potential hacks for this, like having my computer never fully go to sleep, instead having an all-black screensaver or something. macOS also doesn't seem to allow HDR on all resolution and refresh rate combinations. For example, 2x 1080p and 1x 4k both allow it at any refresh rate, but 2x 1440p only allows it at 95 Hz or lower for some reason. This feels like an arbitrary software limitation, but I can't say for sure. Lastly, I can confirm the reports from other reviews, that the brightness falls off slightly towards towards the left and right edges of the screen. It is noticeable, but subtle enough to not bother me.

After two hours of trying to get my brand new monitor to work it did not! Then i called sony for support, and they offered to send me a new one to replace mine. After hours of trying to get on the phone after a week of waiting for my new monitor i was told they needed credit card information, which was not disclosed to me nor did i receive an email with that information. So i hung up and returned the monitor as it was such a headache and pain to wait for i no longer wanted it assuming another new one might not work either, this monitor is overpriced junk!

-Amazon: commandé neuf et reçu une boîte ouverte, écran plein de traces de doigt et 4 pixels morts. Je me demande sous quelles conditions on va tenter de vendre cet exemplaire à nouveau.-J'ai racheté ailleurs pour être certain d'avoir neuf: défaut d'image aussi, deux taches de couleur visibles lorsqu'entourées de noir. J'ai dû attendre un 3è exemplaire sans défaut. À partir de là je m'inquiète pour la fiabilité. J'aurais dû prendre un Dell éprouvé à 400$ de moins.-L'écran gère mal la mise en veille de l'ordinateur, pire que toutes les autres marques. Incapable de désactiver le scan de source, et l'écran semble non disponible à l'ordinateur (les fenêtres se déplacent vers le/les autres écrans ce qui les redimensionne)-Le VRR sur certains jeux fait planter complètement l'affichage, il devient noir et le reste tant que je n'ai pas débranché puis remis le courant. Je suis donc obligé de le désactiver.-Comme mentionné par presque tous les acheteurs, le FALD est très apparent. Des nuages gris se forment dans les fonds noirs dans l'OS. Les dégradés foncés ne sont pas beaux du tout, aussi raté que mon premier écran ACL de 2008. Dans les jeux c'est rerement aparent.-Heureusement que dans une pièce claire l'image est belle et le HDR est assez efficace à mon goût, en attendant les OLED 4K 27". L'esthétique de l'arrière est très réussi.
