Gaming setups just got a serious glow-up thanks to the new monitor from PlayStation and Sony Interactive Entertainment. The 27-inch QHD display features a slick 2560 × 1440 resolution, HDR support with Auto Tone Mapping, and a refresh rate up to 240 Hz when paired with a PC or Mac. But the real playful twist: it includes a built-in charging hook for your wireless controller, subtly tucked behind the screen so your game pad is always juiced up.
If you’re on a console like the PS5 or PS5 Pro, the monitor supports up to 120 Hz with VRR (variable refresh rate) — still silky smooth, just not the full 240 Hz you’ll get on PC. Connectivity is solid too: two HDMI 2.1 ports, one DisplayPort 1.4 input, USB-A and USB-C ports for accessories, built-in stereo speakers, and a 3.5 mm audio jack.
So what’s the catch (because there’s always a catch)? While the spec sheet looks sleek, some tech-heads point out that the panel is standard IPS — no OLED, no ultra-premium back-lighting, and Sony hasn’t yet revealed response times or brightness levels. And here’s the big suspense: pricing and full availability are still under wraps, with launch expected in the U.S. and Japan sometime in 2026.
