Philips is bringing various models from the Evnia range to Cologne, from high refresh rate QD-OLED to large ultrawide displays: here are the models we found on the stand.
Philips is back at Gamescom again this year with the Evnia, bringing with it quite a selection of monitors to round out its current gaming catalogue. In fact, several of the models displayed at the Philips booth are already on the market and available for the public to view and try out directly in Cologne.
The selection covers almost all major variants of the series: There are 27-inch and 32-inch QD-OLED models, with very high refresh rates for users who mainly play competitive games, as well as 34-inch ultra-widescreen, and even a 49-inch large screen in 32:9 format. Let’s take a look at the details of these monitors.
Philips Evnia 32M2N8900P with QD-OLED 4K (240Hz)
If you are looking for great resolution but at the same time speed, the 32M2N8900P is the right model: It’s designed first and foremost for high-end configurations, capable of taking advantage of 4K even at high frame rates, but it’s still fun for anyone using the same monitor to play, work, and consume content.
This panel is a 31.5-inch QD-OLED with a resolution of 3840 x 2160 pixels, a refresh rate of up to 240 Hz, and supports NVIDIA G-SYNC compatibility. It’s certified DisplayHDR True Black 500, while 10-bit color depth allows for more progressive tone management. Ambiglow, MultiView, integrated KVM and DTS Sound round out the package; Philips has also included a graphene shroud to help dissipate the heat generated by the panel.
Philips Evnia 49M2C8900, 49-inch ultra-wide
The target here is very different: the 49M2C8900 is Designed for those who want to replace a dual monitor setup with a single monitorhuge screen. The 32:9 format makes it particularly suitable for simulators, driving games, and all those games that manage to really take advantage of such a large surface.

34M2C8600P may be This is the most natural compromise for those who want to switch to ultra-wide angle but don’t want to go to the 49-inch size. The 21:9 format offers more lateral space than a traditional monitor, yet is easily manageable even on a regular desk, making it perfect for gaming and everyday use.
The panel is a 34-inch QD-OLED with a resolution of 3440 x 1440 pixels, a refresh rate of 280 Hz, and a color depth of 10 bits.

32M2N6901A most meaningful Ideal for those looking for a large 4K monitor but not necessarily looking for 240 or 360 Hz frequencies. 165 Hz is still more than enough for most games, and this model is also interesting for configurations more focused on image quality.
We’re talking about a 31.5-inch QD-OLED with a 3840 x 2160 pixel resolution and a 165 Hz refresh rate, DisplayHDR True Black 400 certified.

Philips Evnia 27M2N5901A, dual mode switching from 4K to 320 Hz
We end this monitor review with the 27M2N5901A, which is probably the most special model of the group because Trying to satisfy two difficult-to-coordinate needs in the same display. On the one hand, there are people who want to play 4K games at a good refresh rate, and on the other hand, there are people who prefer to lower the resolution in order to squeeze out as many frames as possible in competitive gaming.
