Sony is releasing the InZone M10S II gaming monitor at $1,099.99, matching the original's price while adding features to justify the cost. The updated model arrives later this year as an exclusive through Sony's online store.

Sony's first InZone M10S OLED monitor impressed with a compact stand and 480Hz refresh rate but drew criticism for its high price and sparse feature set relative to competitors. The M10S II aims to correct these gaps without raising the price point. Details on specific improvements remain limited, though Sony confirms the sequel includes multiple upgrades. The 1440p OLED panel and high refresh rate are expected to carry over. The original model's standout features—including its unusually small footprint and blazing-fast refresh capabilities—made it distinctive despite the feature deficit. The follow-up now attempts to combine those strengths with broader functionality to appeal to demanding gamers. Availability will be restricted to Sony's direct-to-consumer channel, following the company's strategy with the original InZone M10S. Pricing remains unchanged at $1,099.99.
