Our Verdict
Sony INZONE M9
Acer Nitro XV275K P3biipruzx
The Acer Nitro XV275K P3biipruzx and the Sony INZONE M9 are both 4k gaming monitors, with a few differences. The Acer has Mini LED backlighting with a better local dimming feature than the Sony, meaning it's better for HDR or any other use in dark rooms. The Acer also has much better ergonomics, making it easier to place in an ideal position. Lastly, the Acer has a slightly higher refresh rate and better motion handling, but the Sony is better for gaming at low refresh rates because it has lower input lag.
