Table of Contents
Philips has announced a new Evnia gaming monitor. Last month, the brand announced what it called “the ultimate esports monitor” thanks to a high 390Hz refresh rate. As you may expect, that was a 1080p display aimed at competitive gamers. And now, another high refresh rate display has been unveiled, this time slotting into the QHD (1440p) market.
It’s called the Philips Evnia 27M2N3501PA and is marketed as a “High-quality all-around gaming experience,” aiming to capture as many users as possible. This isn’t an ultra esports-focused display like the last one, it’s something for everyone, coming with Evnia’s iconic sleek white design that we loved the look of on the Evnia 49M2C8900 OLED.
