The BEST VALUE 42" 4K OLED Monitor? Philips Evnia 42M2N8900

The Philips Evnia 42M2N8900 is a BEASTLY 42" 4K OLED Monitor with stunning picture quality and a 138Hz refresh rate. I enjoyed using this monitor, and then Philips massively reduced its price! It makes it a lot more tempting at the new price!

damn i was seriously considering this until i heard it’s a matte display. has basically everything i’d want and actually has a nice clean design

[@mariosmith1172]

all oled monitors are sadly matte..

[@extra4542]

@@mariosmith1172that’s actually not true, there are several semi-glossy options now

[@raymondstewart3350]

Matte is an abomination. It neuters basically every advantage OLED has.

[@sudakhinasinha2272]

hello, Tech Hunter ! Can u pls tell me when u gonna release the performance review of the Lenovo ideapad 5 2in 1 video

[@rich-rothschild1400]

Hi, I wonder if you can give me some information. There is a 49 inch of this monitor, but I was wondering within the software. Is there a smart sniper mode similar towards the 49?. I say this in respect that I’m considering this monitor, but the wider screen is slightly too big. many thanks for the video. Appreciate that. I hope you could possibly supply me with some form of reply thanks or anybody for that matter that has the correct info.

[@jeremyboku]

The review sample you've got has an older firmware. They've added "Unibright" option with v1.11. So no more dimming. Ambiglow is still useless though, in fact I'm on v1.12 and they've removed the ability to follow video. It's greyed out.

[@TechHunterOfficial]

As a philips TV owner with ambilight, I was massively disappointed by ambiglow. They literally have all the tech to make it great, they just don't want to 🤷🏻‍♂️

[@sa2bin909]

Some other things that for some people might be useful to consider when comparing this with the Asus in the video
1. Philips monitor has Power Delivery and USB-C input, while the Asus does not have USB-C input
2. Asus does not have AMD FreeSync PRO (this is from their documentation)
These were the 2 things that convinced me to go with the Philips model over Asus
Good job on the review!

[@TechHunterOfficial]

Plus the £400 price difference is a big one 😂!

[@sa2bin909]

@@TechHunterOfficial depends on the region, but yes, true!

[@pvtpelnar11]

LG C3 OLED for the win. Over 800 nits of brightness

[@TechHunterOfficial]

Yeah another big advantage for TV's compared to monitors is their brightness

[@goldenmantine868]

Incredibly cool but incredibly expensive
