The super speedy Sony Inzone M10S is officially getting a sequel, and if you were hoping for a new best PS5 monitor contender, I'm about to burst your console-loving bubble. Rather than stepping on the toes of the upcoming PlayStation monitor announced last year that will charge your DualSense, the QHD OLED display is packing absurd 720Hz abilities that directly cater to competitive players.
Described as an "ultra-fast QHD esports gaming monitor for competitive core FPS players," the 27-inch Sony Inzone M10S II is anything but casual. The screen builds upon the blueprint established by its OLED predecessor by ramping up its native 1440p refresh rate from 480Hz to 540Hz while including a new 1080p dual mode that dials things up to 720Hz. It will set you back $1,099 / £1,199 when it arrives this June, though, so it's a competitive setup investment to say the least.
The idea of playing PC games at 720Hz might sound absurd, and most gaming PCs aren't going to be hitting frame rates to satiate those sorts of refresh rates. That said, in the realm of competitive shooters, resolution often takes a back seat to refresh rate, and games like Overwatch 2 can easily hit over 500fps running on mid-range graphics cards.
That's not to say high refresh rates are enough on their own, though, as the best gaming monitors also rely on perks like Motion Blur Reduction and response time. The latter is in hand since the OLED panel can apparently achieve 0.02ms GtG, which is seemingly 0.01 of a millisecond faster than every LG screen I've tested so far. Sony is pairing those traits with its take on the aforementioned MBR tech to combat traditional illumination interval caveats, ultimately facilitating "sharper motion clarity with less brightness loss and more vibrant on-screen images."
The M10S II's physical design is also based on feedback from the esports team Fnatic, retaining the last model's slick circular pivot and tilt abilities. That -5° to 35° range is effectively going to help you "lock in" during sessions, and the minimalist should help cut back on desktop distractions, not to mention the 4mm thin base can hide under most keyboards.
Simply put, Sony's new speedy screen is like a souped-up version of the original M10S. It's effectively the same OLED screen, but with refined Motion Blur Reduction and those new HD 720Hz dual mode tricks. It's fast, but silly refresh rates mean you'll pay a chunk of more for this 27-inch panel than you should for other QHD screens, and if you're not serious about FPS games, $1,200 is a lot to fork out.
Again, while this is a Sony screen, it's not inherently a PlayStation monitor. If it's a panel for your PS5 you seek, you'll want to wait for the brand's display later this year, or stick with a more conventional 4K display. The new lineup no longer features the same console perks as the OG Sony Inzone M9, and the M10S really doubles down on catering to PC.
If you're looking to circle your calendar, the Inzone M10S II is set to drop in June 2026, so watch this space for a full review.
