REDMAGIC, a company known for its gaming smartphones, has entered the PC peripheral market. While we mostly hear about OLED gaming monitors this year, 2023 is the year Redmagic enters the monitor market. Redmagic’s 4K monitor is not OLED; instead, it is a 27″ IPS LCD with a refresh rate of up to 160Hz. It has over 2000 mini-LEDs with 1152 “lighting partitions”, and by lighting partitions, I think they meant local dimming zones. It also supports display HDR 1000 and interestingly, based on paper, it sounds similar to INNOCN 27M2V, also a 27-inch 4K 160Hz HDR1000 with 1152 FALD. Redmagic hasn’t disclosed the MSRP for its 4K UHD gaming monitor yet; however, INNOCN 27M2V retails for $700. I’m guessing Redmagic’s 4K monitor would be priced similarly or perhaps slightly higher. You can learn more from Redmagic’s official news release below.

Vibrant Gaming Visuals at Any Viewing Angle
The 27-inch REDMAGIC 4K Gaming Monitor offers vibrant color for an ultimate gaming experience from landscape to portrait mode, the screen can be rotated 90° clockwise or anti-clockwise. From any position, the ultra-high-display brings even the tiniest details to life, while the highly flexible monitor stand provides full immersion in the gaming world from multiple viewing angles. Featuring a minimalistic design, the monitor complements any gaming setup with its adjustable stand that allows gamers to adjust the angle and height of the screen to suit their preferences.
Six Individual Ports for Diverse Ways to Connect
The six ports allow players to connect devices quickly and easily, including HDMI 2.1 bandwidth compatible with FreeSync and G-Sync. The 4K gaming monitor also has a DisplayPort 1.4 x2, USB-C x2, USB-A x3, and an earphone jack. Players can also organize their gaming area with the multifunctional stand, which can handle PCs and gaming consoles and even charge Type-C devices to connect their favorite devices easily.
Minimalist Design: Ultra-Slim Borders with Minimal Bezels
REDMAGIC’s 4K gaming monitor features an ultra-slim bezel, 1000 nits of brightness, ultra-high frequency dimming, and low blue light certification. To enhance the gaming experience, the monitor’s back has a bold triangular centerpiece integrating RGB light effects.
Powerful In-Gaming Features for an Immersive Gaming Experience
Designed to cater for hardcore gamers, one of the key professional features is the Moving Picture Response Time (MPRT) technology. This technology reduces motion blur and improves clarity, and makes it the perfect game for gamers who need smooth and seamless gameplay, especially useful for fast-paced games where reaction time is critical. Players can also monitor their frame rates while playing on the monitor with a real-time refresh rate display.
For a smoother gaming experience, the gaming monitor also includes Free-Sync technology. This technology allows gamers to play fast-paced games at refresh rates up to 160 Hz. The monitor’s Response Time technology is also essential for competitive gamers to eliminate smearing and enhance gameplay. By using this feature, players can react quickly and accurately to changes in the game.
Besides these game-changing features, the monitor also offers a variety of scene modes, including Movie Mode, FPS Mode, and MOBA Mode. The Movie Mode enhances the contrast and color saturation of the visuals, giving them a more vivid and realistic appearance. In contrast, the FPS Mode enhances visibility by adjusting brightness, contrast, and color saturation especially in dark areas. Lastly, the MOBA Mode optimizes the opponent’s life value and skill-cooling color, enabling players to react quickly and decisively. With these advanced features, the REDMAGIC gaming monitor is set to take hardcore gamers into a new level of gaming.
The 4K UHD REDMAGIC gaming monitor display provides gamers with stunning graphics and vibrant colors to play fast-paced action games or competitive multiplayer games seamlessly. For serious gamers, it’s a must-have accessory that works with all mainstream gaming consoles, such as PS5, Xbox, and PCs.
