Redmi A27 2026 monitor launches with 144Hz and 99% sRGB color gamut for around $81

The market for affordable monitors is crowded, but every so often a product comes along that makes you take a second look. The new Redmi A27 2026 monitor is one of those products. This monitor from Xiaomi’s Redmi brand aims to deliver professional features at a price that many can afford, which could appeal to both professionals and general users. The monitor is currently exclusive to the Chinese market.

This A27 (2026) features a 27-inch IPS panel with a Full HD resolution (1920x1080). The IPS panel gives you wide 178° viewing angles, which is helpful for collaborative work or sharing content with others. A standout feature is the 144 Hz refresh rate, which should provide a smooth experience for everything from scrolling through documents to playing games. The display also supports 16.7 million colors and a 99% sRGB color gamut. Its brightness reaches up to 300 nits, and each unit is factory-calibrated to a ΔE <1 color accuracy. This is excellent for detailed work like design or content creation.

Design wise, the monitor has a contemporary look with a three-sided micro-edge design, which maximizes the screen space. The included stand allows for tilt adjustments to help you create an ergonomic workspace. This model is also VESA compatible, so you have more options for mounting it to a wall or a different stand.

The Redmi A27 2026 has a claimed contrast ratio of 1500:1 and a response time of 6 ms. This is not a proper 8-bit display; instead, it's a 6-bit affair with FRC color shifting enabled. The monitor also has a low blue light certification, which supposedly helps reduce eye strain during long hours of use.

The 2026 Redmi A27 is currently on pre-order in China. The pre-sale price is 579 yuan, which is about $81. After the pre-sale period, the retail price will be 799 yuan, or about $112.
