Xiaomi has begun the global launch of its latest 27-inch monitor. Targeted specifically at gamers, the Gaming Monitor G27i 2026 follows the Mini LED Gaming Monitor G Pro 27Qi 2026, which was released in Australia at the end of last month. While the Mini LED model can reach up to 2,000 nits in specific areas, the Gaming Monitor G27i 2026 offers an overall brightness of about 400 nits across the entire display.
Improved Brightness and Refresh Rate
The Gaming Monitor G27i 2026 is indeed brighter than the previous model, which had a peak brightness of 250 nits and is currently priced at $149.99 on Amazon. Furthermore, the new model boasts a refresh rate of 200 Hz, surpassing the 165 Hz of its 2025 version. That said, it maintains the same impressive 1 ms GtG response time and a native resolution of 1,920 x 1,080.
Design Tweaks and Connectivity
In terms of design, the Gaming Monitor G27i 2026 features a newly designed stand and slimmer bezels. However, Xiaomi has kept the same connectivity options as before, providing only a 3.5 mm jack, DisplayPort 1.4, and HDMI 2.0 ports. In Singapore, the Gaming Monitor G27i 2026 is priced at SGD 199 (~$156), up from last year’s SGD 159 (~$125). A retailer in the UK lists the monitor for approximately £184, which includes 20% VAT (~$251). Unfortunately, there is no word yet from Xiaomi on when this new 1080p, 27-inch gaming monitor will be available in other regions.
