Philips has just launched a new QD-OLED monitor for its Evnia range. The Philips Evnia 27M2N6501L is a 27-inch 1440p gaming monitor that delivers a fast 240Hz refresh rate and offers HDMI 2.1 support. It’s safe to say that this display already looks like a pretty good deal, considering its budget-friendly £399 price tag. We’re yet to learn how much it will cost in the U.S.

This budget price tag places it adjacent to the AOC Gaming Q27G4ZDR – one of the first QD-OLED displays to be included in AOC’s budget-friendly ‘Gaming’ range, announced earlier this month. So, if you’re looking for a cost-effective way to upgrade to an OLED monitor, these may be your best bet. The new Philips monitor is set for release this December.

Making next-generation gaming accessible

The immersive effect of QD-OLED makes it one of the most coveted technologies today, but that type of quality often comes with a hefty price tag. Not so with the Philips Evnia 27M2N6501L. This model puts the pleasure of QD-OLED immersion in the hands of every user who wants a luxury experience but may not have a luxury budget.

When it comes to innovative features, the Philips Evnia 27M2N6501L consistently punches above its weight. First, its QD-OLED display works by combining the best of OLED panel and quantum dot technology to deliver vibrant colours, inky blacks, and unlimited viewing angles for images so stunning that it’s hard to look anywhere else. Gaming and entertainment on this type of screen is an invitation to discover a whole new world of experiences.

But superb visuals are only part of the Philips Evnia 27M2N6501L promise as its speed is also flawless. With an ultra-fast 240 Hz refresh rate, even the most intense, action-packed games remain smooth and lag-free, without any ghosting or judder, ensuring nothing gets in the way of enjoyment. Additional features further boost the gaming experience, such as Smart Crosshair, Stark ShadowBoost, and Smart Sniper. And as if this weren’t enough, AI-enhanced Ambiglow analyses incoming image content and emits coloured light for an enveloping effect that makes viewing even more immersive.

In addition to the power of QD-OLED, the Philips Evnia 27M2N6501L delivers CrystalClear images with Quad HD 2560 x 1440 pixels, a visual performance further enhanced by High Dynamic Range, 1.07 billion colours, and true 10-bit colour depth for astonishingly smooth, life-like pictures. The precision and definition that these technologies provide guarantee jaw-dropping image rendering, whether users are gaming, watching movies, creating high-quality visual content, or handling CAD-CAM or 3D graphic software.

Connected to everything you do

For users seeking convenience, customisation, and connectivity, the Philips Evnia 27M2N6501L has it all. Evnia Precision Center lets them personalise their gaming, fine-tuning it to perfectly match their unique gaming style. MultiView provides active dual connect and view, allowing users to work with multiple devices at once for hassle-free multi-tasking. HDMI 2.1 lets gamers plug in their console or PC and play at full performance instantly or natively run peak refresh and resolution, maximising the performance of their GPU. Furthermore, Philips’ OLED and QD-OLED displays are covered by a three-year manufacturer warranty, which includes OLED and QD-OLED burn-in coverage.

Finally, the Philips Evnia 27M2N6501L ensures that every minute spent in front of it is as physically comfortable as possible, thanks to multiple ergonomic and eye-friendly features such as LowBlue Mode, Flicker-Free technology, a fully adjustable stand, and more.
