Innovative features for next-level gaming
The Philips Evnia 27M2C5500W has everything players need for fast, smooth, visually stunning, and physically comfortable gaming sessions, time after time. In terms of smoothness, the model is equipped with AMD FreeSync Premium Pro combined with a dazzling 240 Hz refresh rate, low input lag, and fast response times of 1 ms GtG and 0.5 ms MPRT. The result is virtually lag-free gaming with no blurring, ghosting, or tearing – which means that gamers can enjoy even the fastest-paced titles such as FPS, online battle royale and racing games without having to worry about whether their monitor can keep up.

Visually speaking, the Philips Evnia 27M2C5500W is a force to be reckoned with. Its curved VA display offers gorgeous images with wide viewing angles of 178/178° and the pleasant enveloping sensation of a 1000R curvature – designed specifically for jumping into the action. Crystal-clear Quad HD images are sharp, bright, and true-to-life, and DisplayHDR 400 support perfects them further still, thanks to astonishing brightness, contrast and colours for a visual result that reveals enhanced detail even in shadowy scenes.

Connectivity is complete and easy, with two HDMI, two DisplayPort inputs and a USB hub with two fast charging ports to easily plug in all peripherals that gamers need to live their adventures to the fullest. Desks can thus be organised any way imaginable and without compromises.

With a monitor such as this, gamers will be reluctant to stop. Thankfully, the Philips Evnia 27M2C5500W was designed with gamers’ physical well-being in mind as well. LowBlue mode and Flicker-free technologies ensure easy-on-the-eyes gameplay, while the monitor’s stand can be tilted (-5°/20°), swivelled (+/- 30°), and height-adjusted (130 mm) to suit any physique – ensuring maximum comfort even during lengthy gaming sessions.
