Xiaomi has brought its latest entry-level gaming monitor to global markets, with the G25i 2026 featuring a 240Hz refresh rate and a sub-€200 price point, targeting competitive players who prioritise frame rate over resolution.
The G25i 2026 uses a 24.5-inch Fast IPS panel with a native 1920×1080 resolution, a specification that falls short of the 1440p displays now common at similar price points, though the 240Hz refresh rate and one-millisecond grey-to-grey response time reflect a deliberate focus on smoothness over image detail for esports-oriented use cases.
That competitive framing extends to the feature set, with FreeSync Premium support addressing screen tearing in fast-paced titles, while an on-screen crosshair overlay and a night vision mode add utility for players in games where visibility and precision carry a direct performance advantage.

Connectivity is limited to a single HDMI 2.0 port and one DisplayPort 1.4 output alongside a standard audio jack, a configuration that covers the basic requirements for a desktop gaming setup without the redundant inputs found on monitors pitched at content creators or multi-source users.
Ergonomic flexibility is similarly stripped back, as the stand supports tilt adjustment only, with no swivel or height options available, a constraint that places the G25i 2026 firmly in the budget tier where stand functionality is typically the first specification to be reduced to control costs.
Typical brightness is listed at 400 nits with a 1,000:1 contrast ratio, figures consistent with mainstream Fast IPS panels at this price level rather than the higher-brightness specifications found on monitors targeting HDR performance or bright-room use.
The Xiaomi G25i 2026 is listed by at least one European distributor and a Finnish retailer at around €180, though Xiaomi has not confirmed official regional pricing, and the monitor has not yet reached wider retail availability across European markets.
