Philips - Evnia Curved Gaming Monitor QD OLED gaming monitor 34M2C8600/00

I used it for a couple of months, it's decent for it's price, but how VA handles blacks was very irritating for me, now using Phillips 34M2C8600 OLED and happy

I’m using a [Philips Evnia 34M2C8600](https://www.philips.co.uk/c-p/34M2C8600_00/evnia-curved-gaming-monitor-qd-oled-gaming-monitor) which I got for an absolute steal on Amazon and I couldn’t be happier with it. macOS looks and feels great on it. I’m a developer, so most of my time is in VSCode, Safari, Slack, and Ghostty.

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

Search for OLED discounts . I just bought a Philips 34" OLED for 520eur . I had a VA MiniLED - which i loved , but had a black flickering which i didn't know how to fix so i just blamed the monitor , it was 400 EUR , so very cheap , but 120eur extra for an OLED is ultra nice. Either go for VA MiniLED which has low ghosting and some decent black levels or OLED . Don't go for classic VA . Hope it helps!

+1! Both mine are Philips Envia.

I’d recommend the Philips Evnia over this. It’s the same panel but has more features. Can be bought for around same price.

Why are you limited to IPS? I just bought a Philips Envia QD-OLED for $550 and it's stunning.

Awesome piece of kit. Only thing missing is hdmi 2.1 but I'm using it on a PC with DP anyway.

Look up the Philips evnia monitors, I have a 34inch one glossy and it's phenomenal for the price I paid (400$)

AOC 34 180 RAPID VA is a good buy, so is the phillips evnia, just jmake sure if going VA get the 0.5ms response RAPID VA not old VA

if im not wrong they all have the same panel so you need to look at the features that distinguish them and the price. I didnt want to get an oled as Ill use it also for work but seeing that the philips 34M2C8600 is available for the same price as the ips i was going to get I think I'll take the philips. It's available for 500€ while all others are available for 700+.
