Philips has announced a new monitor for its line of gaming displays. This is the Evnia 27M2N5500, a model that comes with a balance between features and prices for appeal to mass consumption in what we call the middle class.

You already know where the trend is heading in the computer monitor market: OLED, curved, ultra-panoramic panels with large diagonals. Philips itself has this type of model in its catalog, for example Evnia 49M2C8900. But it is clear that there are few users who need so much and can pay its high price.

Evnia 27M2N5500 is a worthy representative of this middle class, which, when we talk about technology, is usually the best on the market. Build a panel suitable for this segment. This is one of them ‘Fast IPS’ which the industry has produced to improve performance in games but while maintaining IPS image quality.

The Philips monitor has a diagonal of o 27 inches and native resolution QHD for 2560 x 1440 pixels. Its refresh rate is 180 Hz, its response time of 1 millisecond and support for variable refresh rate (Adaptive-Sync) to improve image sharpness and blur. It is certified for the VESA DisplayHDR 400 standard and has HDMI 2.0 and DisplayPort 1.4 inputs.

The monitor has a new design with reduced bezels on three sides, favoring multi-monitor systems when needed. Philips also emphasizes its affordability, with the legs of the stand made from 35% recycled plastic and the chassis of the monitor made from 85% recycled plastic.

The monitor base (SmartErgoBase) enables a wide range ergonomic adjustments (height, pan, rotate and tilt) to adjust it to the user’s taste. It features SmartImage gaming modes, new OSD features with an EasySelect button for quick OSD menu switching, as well as a LowBlue mode to protect your eyes from long periods of blue light exposure.

The Philips Evnia 27M2N5500 will go on sale this month in some markets such as Spain for 280 euros. Balanced. For games or for any computing task thanks to the IPS panel.
