Previously, the market was dominated by TV products with 4K 60Hz specifications. To meet the performance of the new generation of consoles, the hardware specifications of TV products have also been upgraded with the attribute of "high refresh rate", thus giving birth to a new category of products - gaming TV.

In the early stages, there is no such concept as gaming monitors, which is due to the explosion of the gaming industry, giving rise to a niche category. The first to propose this concept was the manufacturer BenQ, which jointly designed the world's first monitor with a 120Hz refresh rate (XL2410T) with two of the world's top CS players in 2012, and since then gamers have given it a professional term - gaming monitor.

And now TVs are also starting to upgrade the refresh rate of this parameter, leaving aside the high color accuracy of special-purpose professional-grade monitors, the difference between TVs and gaming monitors is becoming increasingly blurred, and it seems that there is only one big and one small size problem left.

The large screen is the innate advantage of the TV, which makes it the best screen for home consoles, with the handle for the game can be pulled away from the player and the screen, another advantage of the large screen is that it can bring a stronger sense of immersion.

At the same time, another advantage of TVs over monitors is the independent picture quality chip carried in the TV, such as Sony's latest XR chip, which can simulate the way the human eye sees things to optimize the visual and auditory experience.

Therefore, playing games on TV, the picture must be more colorful and visually appealing.

TV may not be able to replace the monitor, but the game TV is the next two years, one of the most important segments of the TV category, and also an important growth point for the explosion of TV products. TVs with gaming expertise will undoubtedly be more popular and become a focus dimension for high-end consumer groups to buy products.
