Key Features Explained
180 Hz Gaming
For intense competitive games, a monitor with exceptionally smooth, lag-free visuals is essential. This monitor refreshes the screen up to 180 times per second, significantly faster than standard monitors. Lower frame rates can make enemies appear to jump around the screen, making them harder to hit. The 180 Hz refresh rate provides those critical extra frames, making enemy movement exceptionally smooth for easier targeting. Combined with ultra-low input lag and a flicker-free screen, this Philips monitor is your perfect gaming partner.
0.5 ms Smart MBR Response Time
Philips Evnia with 0.5 ms Smart MBR effectively eliminates motion blur and smearing, delivering a clear and precise display that enhances the gaming experience. Dynamic action and exciting transitions are rendered smoothly. It's the best choice for playing thrilling and intense games.
High Dynamic Range (HDR)
High Dynamic Range offers a drastically different viewing experience. With stunning brightness, unparalleled contrast, and captivating colors, images come alive with greater brightness and deeper, more pronounced darks. It reproduces a fuller palette of rich new colors never before seen on screen, providing a visual experience that engages the senses and inspires emotion.
Fast VA Panel
This feature is designed for extremely dynamic gaming. Not only does it provide near blur-free gameplay, but it also pairs well with high refresh rates for the best and sharpest images.
Crystal Clear Image
These Philips monitors deliver crystal clear images with Quad HD resolution of 2560x1440 or 2560x1080 pixels. Using high-performance panels with high pixel density, enabled by high bandwidth sources, these new monitors bring images and graphics to life. Whether you are a demanding professional seeking extremely detailed information for CAD-CAM solutions, a user of 3D graphics applications, or a financial genius working with large spreadsheets, Philips monitors provide crystal clear images.
Low Input Lag
Input lag is the time period between performing an action with a connected device and the result being displayed on the screen. Low input lag shortens the time between entering a command on the device and it appearing on the monitor, significantly improving the experience for twitch-sensitive games, which is especially important for those who play dynamic, competitive games.
Curved Screen Design
Desktop monitors offer a personalized user experience, which the curved design complements very well. The curved screen provides a pleasant and refined wrap-around effect, placing you at the center of the experience while seated at your desk.
SmartContrast
SmartContrast is a Philips technology that analyzes the content you are displaying and automatically adjusts colors and backlight intensity. It dynamically enhances contrast for the best digital image and video, or for gaming with dark scenes. When the Economy mode is selected, contrast is adjusted and backlight is tuned for proper display of everyday office applications and low energy consumption.
Ambiglow with AI Enhancements
Our processor with AI enhancements analyzes the incoming image content and continuously adjusts the color and brightness of the emitted light to match the image. This feature adds a new dimension to your viewing experience. Innovative Ambiglow technology uses its AI capabilities to create a fully immersive and adaptive gaming experience. From filling your gaming room with color that contributes to the feeling of being part of the game, Ambiglow with AI enhancements is designed to make your gaming experience better than ever by combining intelligence, color, and light.
LowBlue Mode and Flicker-Free
Our LowBlue mode and Flicker-Free technology are developed to reduce eye strain and fatigue, which often occurs from spending many hours in front of a monitor.
SmartImage Game Mode
The new Philips gaming display features an easily accessible on-screen menu tuned for gamers, with numerous options. The 'FPS' (First Person Shooter) mode enhances dark themes in games, allowing you to see hidden objects in dark areas. The 'Racing' mode adjusts the screen for the shortest response time and excellent colors, while the 'RTS' (Real-Time Strategy) mode has a special SmartFrame feature that allows highlighting a specific area, as well as adjusting size and picture. Player 1 and Player 2 allow you to save personal customized settings for different games, ensuring the best performance.
Smart Crosshair
The crosshair color is adjusted by default. When the smart crosshair is enabled, the color will change to match the background color. The smart crosshair increases aiming precision, making it easier to spot enemies.
ShadowBoost
This feature enhances dark scenes in a linear manner. ShadowBoost offers a choice of three levels that improve overall brightness, resulting in an excellent quality image with high contrast.
