Gaming monitor – not just for games
If you are looking for a monitor for studying or work, the word “Gaming” in the name might be misleading: does such a monitor have features or qualities needed only for playing games? But when it comes to the new Xiaomi Gaming Monitor G24i 2026 and Xiaomi Gaming Monitor G27i 2026, it is somewhat different. Both monitors have IPS-type screens, and such matrices feature wide viewing angles and good color reproduction, making them suitable not only for gaming but also for various everyday activities: working with documents, viewing and editing videos or photos, graphic work. Each monitor is factory calibrated, with a color deviation of ΔE<2, color gamut coverage of 100% sRGB and 95% DCI-P3. These numbers and letters indicate that when you take the purchased monitor out of the box and turn it on, its colors are already calibrated accurately enough, and this color accuracy is fully sufficient for everyday creative work.
200 Hz? Why is it needed if we prepare lessons or work?
Until recently, a 60 Hz screen refresh rate was the standard for monitors intended for work. Today, more and more versatile monitors offer a 100–120 Hz refresh rate, but the screens of the Xiaomi Gaming Monitor G24i 2026 and Xiaomi Gaming Monitor G27i 2026 can refresh the image at up to 200 Hz. The biggest difference is felt when gaming, but smoother visuals are noticeable in everyday use as well: the mouse cursor moves more smoothly, web pages scroll more fluidly, and window and other screen element movements are smoother. After working on a monitor with a 200 Hz refresh rate, you won’t want to go back to an old 60 Hz monitor.
In games, a 200 Hz refresh rate is much more important: the more often the screen refreshes the image, the smoother the action – in racing, sports, or shooting games it is easier to follow moving objects, and the image stutters less. Both Xiaomi monitors feature a 1 ms response time – short enough to keep fast-moving objects on the screen clear, and their motion blur shadows less noticeable.
Another important feature is that the monitor can adapt to the speed at which the computer is generating the image at that moment. This uses FreeSync Premium and G-Sync compatible technologies, helping the computer and monitor work in sync, reducing image stuttering and the so-called tearing, when two mismatched parts of the image are visible on the screen simultaneously.
24 or 27 inches?
At first glance, the choice seems very clear: the Xiaomi Gaming Monitor G24i 2026 costs about 119 euros, and by paying 30 euros more, you can get the 27-inch Xiaomi Gaming Monitor G27i 2026. So why not buy the bigger one? There is no rush because both screens have the same 1920 × 1080 pixels (Full HD) resolution. The 27-inch monitor is larger, but the workspace on the computer screen does not increase – the same 1920 × 1080 pixels are just spread over a larger area.
Therefore, when sitting at a small desk, looking closely at the 24-inch Xiaomi Gaming Monitor G24i 2026, the image and text appear denser and smaller. The 27-inch model is more suitable for gaming, watching movies, video content, or simply sitting further from the screen. However, when viewed up close, pixels are easier to notice. Still, the image on this monitor is detailed enough for everyday work. So you can choose between these two models as follows: if the monitor will stand close, on a small student’s or pupil’s desk, and much work will be done with texts and documents, the 24-inch version is more rational; if you want a larger image for gaming, watching movies, or the desk is more spacious and the monitor will be viewed from a greater distance – the 27-inch model is more attractive.
Many hours in front of the screen
When choosing a monitor for work or study that will also be used for gaming in leisure time, not only the screen refresh rate and monitor response time are important. A student, pupil, or working person may spend five, six, or even more hours a day in front of the monitor, which is a significant strain on the eyes. Both new Xiaomi monitors have TÜV certification confirming that the impact of eye-straining blue light is reduced. Moreover, in these monitors, screen brightness is adjusted by changing the intensity of the LED light sources, not by rapidly turning them on and off, so the flicker usually invisible to the naked eye is reduced. But it is always important to remember that no eye protection technology replaces breaks.
Value and price
The Xiaomi Gaming Monitor G24i 2026, costing about 119 euros, and the Xiaomi Gaming Monitor G27i 2026, about 149 euros, are affordable, simple, but well-performing Full HD resolution monitors. You will quickly appreciate the accurately reproduced colors, the advantages of the 200 Hz screen, and the price-to-functionality ratio. These monitors do not compete with several times more expensive OLED or Mini LED devices, and their main advantage is that for a small price you get fast IPS screens suitable for everyday work and gaming. In this case, there is no need to choose between a “monitor for studying” and a “monitor for gaming,” and such versatility is very attractive.
