Sony INZONE gaming gear is expanding in South Africa with a flagship headset, in-ear monitors and PC peripherals that try to win over a crowd that already trusts Razer and Logitech. The pitch is simple. Sony wants a seat at the esports table, and it is bringing pro credentials to get it.
The H9 II sits at the top of the pile. It borrows driver tech from the WH-1000XM6, adds a detachable boom mic with AI noise filtering and targets the cues that win rounds, like distant footsteps and reload clicks. The headset weighs 260 g and is rated for up to 30 hours on a charge. A USB-C dongle handles the 2.4 GHz low-latency link. Bluetooth with LE Audio keeps your phone connected for calls and notifications without breaking focus.
The E9 in-ear monitors are built for players who prefer a lighter touch or need arena-level isolation. They use a sealed housing and noise-isolating tips. They are also approved for the Apex Legends Global Series Year 5 Championship, which gives them credibility beyond a brand sticker.
Sony’s first gaming keyboard, the KBD-H75, chases speed and comfort with a compact 75 percent layout, an 8000 Hz polling rate and a gasket mount that softens press and sound. The Mouse-A is the head-turner. It weighs 48.4 g, uses a custom 30K DPI sensor, optical switches and can hit up to 8000 Hz polling. Sony claims up to 90 hours of battery life. Two new mousepads round things out. Mat-F is 6 mm thick for low-sens control and hard stops. Mat-D is 4 mm for speed and constant motion.
This push is not happening in a vacuum. Sony has been threading esports into INZONE for a while. We covered the INZONE M10S OLED monitor and its Fnatic collaboration when it launched, which set the tone for this move into full ecosystems for competitive play. That context matters, because a proper PC setup is a chain. A fast display only shines when the audio and input hardware keep up. Read our INZONE M10S coverage on Reframed.
There is still a trust gap to close. Sony owns mindshare in headphones. PC gamers, though, form habits around switches, shapes and surfaces. Swapping a beloved mouse or board is not a casual choice. Co-developing with Fnatic helps. Real comfort and reliable latency help. What will seal it is time on desks and on stages, not spec sheets.
Availability in South Africa is set for November 2025. For full product information, visit https://www.sony-mea.com/en/gaming-gear
