THIS absolute monster is the Philips EVNIA 8900, specifically this is the 49M2C8900, not to be confused with the other EVNIA 8900 that’s a 42” 4K OLED, this is a 49” super-ultrawide, a 32:9 aspect ratio, with 5120 pixels across, and 1440 vertically. It, much like the smaller 8600 I’ve been using full time, is a QD or Quantum Dot OLED panel, which in my experience is the best type of OLED panel available right now. Being a QD-OLED panel, it has a pretty conventional pixel layout, which means you completely avoid all the fringing issues with text that RWGB OLEDs often have. The big difference, besides the size, between this and the 8600 is this has a higher 240Hz refresh rate - an impressive feat considering this has considerably more pixels to push per frame too.

Thanks for this great review! I think i will pick it up if the price is good after a few months.
What would be a good price you think it will go to? :)
I'm still rocking it out on the monitor, perfect besides for the auto brightness dimming mainly while gaming, I even get zero freesync/vrr flicker which is great. But the auto brightness dimming for 1-3mins every 20-45mins is annoying during gaming sessions. They need to add a firmware update that fixes the "ABL". Anyone else get annoying ABL on their 49m2c8900? I've had 2 of these, each with brightness dimming that's aggressive af.
i just recieved my 34" today :)
I fell for the oled craze
Got a oled tv and monitor and my phone is oled
After 2 years they all had burn in and it drove me crazy as once you see it, you always notice it even if it's not much.
I instantly switched to a neo g8 for my monitor and a tcl c93 and i got a phone with lcd also
Honestly the mini led looks 90% as good as oled and the brightness is actually better.
I rather have a permanent 9/10 monitor/tv
Over a 10/10 which gradually declines in pictures quality over the years.
After one year it's a 9/10
After 2 when you notice burn in It's a 7/10
After 3 it's a 5/10
After 4 it's a 3/10
Meanwhile the mini led is still a 9/10 which looks almost as good as oled
Does the USB C port accept inputs from the 4 USB A ports? 🤞
how do i put it on my wall?
ABL IS A JOKE ON THIS MONITOR ! EVEN IN SDR MODE !!! DONT BUY !!!
It dims up and down without any controll over the brightness
Great review! How does it work with a PS5 or Xbox Series X?
The fact that this has a fully featured type c port for display and power and that two of the type a ports are for fast charge makes the oled g9 seem retarded by comparison
In my case the 34 Philips 8600 OLED is only 20-25% cheaper than the 49 8900 series. I prefer to buy the 49" monitor and for gaming I still can use it as a 21:9 monitor with black bars on the side. As we have here an OLED monitor the black i black and doesn't "shine" in your face. It works just like a 34" 21:9 monitor.
In the 49 you get much more usable space for productivity if you target for a 1 monitor setup. Also there are much better speakers.
In my case productivity is more important than gaming, also aesthetics and a minimal desk setup. So it's a subjective thing.
Did you get it?
when 32:9 isnt supported well, set the monitor to just use 2/3 or half the screen, problem solved
why do ya reviewers leave out the kvm switch build inside and pip and pbp i use a dual pc setup i had too watch another youtuber too review the pip and pbp because you can use two devices he demonstrated using a series x on the right and ps5 on the left he showed a moc book and a windows pc being used on this monitor
can you punch the Asus ROG G11CD Gaming Desktop and maybe also say ur height p[elase its for science
vouch we need it ffor a research study
49M2C8900 needs unibright with a new firmware !
The screen auto dim in SDR which is VERY BAD when gaming
If i remember it right... You can split that screen.
Basicaly have one helf keep open windows for your obs and other helf play your game.
I think, not 100% sure
Bananas. Fringe interest. Still cool. I commented to GN about their lastest latency vid why they don't try use OSRTT for their methodology. We will see.
So, how does it perform when it displays gray shades, any artifacting like the woled do ie dirty grays? Could not use the asus rog woled because I use windows dark mode and the darker shades were showing horizontal lines through them like if it was scan lines on older crt but a bit thicker and very disturbing. Yet nobody mentions that oleds have issues with darker shades.
I am used to three big screens so this is too small for me.
the issues you have identified (lack of proper supprot for such resolutions) is something i've "enjoyed" with my Samsung 49. so much so that i want to replace it with something less wise. but nothing intrresting in the 45-48 inch range. considering even LG c3.. but i'd rather get a monitor without any of the "smart tv" feastures. anything on the radar I should look for?
I’d recommend the monitor in the video
This thing costs 2x more than my whole setup😂😂
You need a better pc then mine cost £4000 more than this monitor 🤣
