Philips - 49M2C8900/00

I am happy with my Philips Evnia 49M2C8900L

can confirm the evnia is great tho i have the 49 inch never had an issue with it and it was alot cheaper than the samsung

Hi mate. Hope both you and your monitor are doing great) First of all, thanks for such initiative with this post and many detailed answers. I am considering this monitor, because I am so used to KVM, and this monitor has 4 USB ports and usb c connectivity, which marks lots of checkboxes for me. But what is also important is that it supports 240 hz. I'm not really looking for 240 hz gameplay at the moment, I don't think my 4070ti Super will manage to pull such frames in iRacing or LMU. But as far as I understood, because this panel is capable of 240 in single screen mode, it will be able to receive 120hz signal when using PBP with PS5 right? Maybe you know? I saw that it works at 200hz with PC and Nintendo (at 60 I assume). This is important to me, as sometimes I do want to stream PS5 content using capture card and have OBS and chat on the other side of the screen, and still have 120hz for ps5. PC may have 60 hz at this moment, it's not important.. I didn't find this in the manual for this monitor, while all other similar but 144 hz products do have it in their manual and stating that only 60 hz possible in PBP. This is the only possible 240hz option on the market at the moment in my region that ticks all of my checkboxes. MSI 491cqpx is not here yet and nobody knows when it'll come, and still this Evnia has an advantage in the number of usb and speakers, ambiglow.. Thanks in advance for any reply and good luck!)

Yes, tou said that you heard it supports both sources 120 hz, but not that you tried:) Would be nice if you could confirm this from your invaluable experience, if that's true, then I don't see any alternative to this monitor at the moment. The only shame is that it doesn't have a dedicated hard button for KVM like gigabytes for example. But maybe it can be binded to some hotkey? And I just hope that Philips's display is not like their vacuum or juicemaker, that stopped working right after 1 year, when warranty ended xD

Hey mate. No worries I've already bought one and very happy so far. Cheers!

Hi! Huge thank you for all the answers you provide! Super close in pushing the purchase button now :) I did stumble on a variation to the screen but with an addition “AM” at the end. (PHILIPS Evnia 49M2C8900AM) This looks to be an Amazon exclusive variant which is pretty much the same screen but costs in Sweden 300$ less (920$ in total). What worried me is that one Reddit post and review from the same person on Amazon highlights: “Great monitor if the firmware would work. The monitor cannot be switched off after a period of use of more than 4 hours.” Either this is a special thing related to this persons monitor or it is closely related to what you write regarding the pixel refresh which pops up after 4 hours. My question to you all that have the screen: Do you recognize this issue or understand what problem he has had and how to mitigate it?

I got this one its awesome

I got use it to

I have the Philips Evnia 49 OLED and if you can get it, it might be pretty much ideal for you? Theres a USB-C KVM built into the monitor itself, and it uses the same panel as the Samsung G9 OLED. The USB C can charge, take display from the mac, and give it your Keyboard and mouse inputs at the same time, then you can either use the same cable, or HDMI/DP + USB with the HP, and then theres still a HDMI left over for the XBOX.

Definitely rarer - I had this struggle when I was shopping for a new one. HP X34 - not curved but fits your other options. BenQ ex3415R - fits your needs exactly but pricier In the end I settled with a VA, it’s not like it’s a bad experience especially on a higher priced one. The few IPS ultrawides I found were hitting OLED pricing - Phillips have an OLED ultrawide for £400 a few days ago which I’ve just picked up, almost cheaper than some of these options

+1! Both mine are Philips Envia.

Its a dream coming true ! That OLED is really black wow ! Coming from a 1070 ti rig, to a light speed modern 5070 ti rig with a huge widescreen. Oblivion remastered looks amazing. Have a good day and take care of yourself.

Its 32:9 240hz, 49 inch. **Philips Evnia 49** [Gaming Monitor QD OLED-gamemonitor 49M2C8900/00 | Evnia](https://www.philips.be/c-p/49M2C8900_00/evnia-gaming-monitor-qd-oled-gamemonitor)

I have a Philips Evnia 32:9, it has really good speakers (as monitor speakers go)
