Philips Evnia has introduced the 32M2N8900P, a new 31.5-inch 4K gaming monitor built around a 4th-generation QD-OLED panel. The display targets both high-end gaming and creative workloads, pairing a 240Hz refresh rate with true 10-bit colour reproduction and a manufacturer-backed three-year warranty that covers pixel burn-in.

The monitor achieves a 1,500,000:1 contrast ratio, VESA DisplayHDR True Black 500 certification, and broad colour space coverage reaching 99.5% DCI-P3 and 97.7% Adobe RGB. Performance metrics specify a 0.03ms grey-to-grey (GTG) response time, alongside official Nvidia G-Sync compatibility. Built-in software features include target aids like Smart Crosshair and Smart Sniper, as well as contrast boosters such as Shadow Boost and Stark Shadow Boost.

Aesthetic and spatial integration is driven by an AI-enhanced Ambiglow system that adjusts the colours of the rear lighting based on the active display content. This is expanded via AmbiScape inside the Evnia Precision Center software tool, allowing users to synchronise up to 10 external Matter-certified smart lights.

For productivity and multi-system setups, the rear I/O is outfitted with HDMI 2.1, DisplayPort 2.1, and USB-C inputs supporting DisplayPort Alternate Mode and 65W power delivery, managed via an integrated KVM switch and MultiView split-screen software. Additional hardware features include SoftBlue panel-level low-blue-light technology and dual 5W internal speakers equipped with DTS Sound. The Philips Evnia 32M2N8900P is scheduled to release in June 2026 for £829.99.

Philips has introduced something quite unique to the market this week. The new 24B2D5300 is a 120Hz IPS monitor, but it actually houses two screens, one on the front and one on the back, designed for customer-facing environments and collaborative workspaces.

The monitor uses two identical 23.8‑inch IPS panels, each offering 1080p resolution, 120Hz refresh rate, and wide 178° viewing angles. Both sides include their own USB‑C port with 65W power delivery, plus HDMI support, allowing each screen to operate independently or connect to separate devices. Philips’ SmartView and DualView modes enable content to be split, mirrored or extended across the two panels, while OSD Sync allows brightness and image settings to be adjusted on both screens simultaneously.

One example of this monitor being put to use would be on a reception desk or service counter, where check-in details or forms can be displayed on the rear side, while internal applications remain visible on the employee's side of the monitor. A 180‑degree swivel base allows either screen to be rotated and shared easily during collaboration or training.

Each panel supports Philips’ MultiView picture‑in‑picture and picture‑by‑picture modes, enabling two users to work from separate sources on the same device. Eye‑comfort features include Flicker‑free, Low Blue Light, SoftBlue Technology and Eyesafe 2.0 certification.

The Philips 24B2D5300 will be available starting in June, priced at £359.99, backed by a 5-year warranty.

KitGuru Says: Do you think a dual-sided monitor would be useful for replacing multi-monitor setups in offices?

Philips Evnia is expanding its ambient‑lighting ecosystem with AmbiScape, a new feature designed to extend on‑screen lighting effects into the wider room. The update builds on the brand’s existing AI‑Enhanced Ambiglow system and its support for Windows Dynamic Lighting, aiming to create a more unified lighting setup across gaming setups.

AmbiScape works by synchronising Matter‑compatible smart lights with what is happening on screen, updating room lighting in real time as scenes change. Evnia says the goal is to make the surrounding environment react alongside the display, rather than leaving the room visually static during gameplay or media. Configuration is handled through the Philips Evnia Precision Center, where users can adjust intensity, behaviour and room layout.

AI‑Enhanced Ambiglow remains part of the system, dynamically adapting the monitor’s ambient projection based on colour balance and scene transitions instead of relying on fixed RGB presets. Users can create profiles and fine‑tune behaviour through Precision Center, which also manages lighting across supported devices.

Evnia’s monitors continue to support Windows Dynamic Lighting, making the brand the first in the gaming‑monitor category to integrate Microsoft’s RGB‑control framework. When connected via USB upstream, lighting behaviour can be synchronised across compatible peripherals directly through Windows 11 settings.

AmbiScape is available at no additional cost for Evnia monitors that support Precision Center. Version 1.9 of the software will be released on the 29th of April, enabling users to expand their setups with room‑scale lighting effects.

Philips has announced the Evnia 27M2D5901A, a 27-inch 5K dual-mode gaming monitor. Revealed at a press event in Croatia, the display shares many of the specs of the 27M2G5800 revealed a few weeks ago, but with a new Ambiscape lighting technology.

According to TFTCentral, the monitor features a Fast IPS panel capable of 5120×2880 at 165Hz and a secondary 1440p mode that increases the refresh rate to 330Hz. The Evnia 27M2D5901A delivers a pixel density of 218PPI and a 1ms GtG response time. The chassis is finished in white and includes a fully adjustable stand with height, tilt, swivel, and pivot capabilities.

Philips confirms that the panel supports 10-bit colour depth and covers 95% of the DCI-P3 colour gamut. For variable refresh rate support, the display is certified as Nvidia G-Sync compatible and uses adaptive-sync technology to ensure tear-free visuals. Connectivity options include two HDMI 2.1 ports, one DisplayPort 2.1 with UHBR20 speeds, and a USB-C port with 65W power delivery. The monitor also integrates two USB-A ports, a KVM switch, and dual 5W speakers.

A notable feature is the introduction of AmbiScape, an evolution of Philips' AmbiGlow technology. The monitor acts as a hub to synchronise its integrated rear lighting with external Matter-certified smart lights. Software customisation is handled through the Evnia Precision Center, which allows users to adjust display and lighting settings.

While an official product page has not yet been published, Philips confirmed at the event that the Evnia 27M2D5901A is expected to be available in Europe in July 2026. The retail price is set at €799.

KitGuru Says: The budget gaming monitor market has become more impressive each year. Are you considering making the jump to a 240Hz+ display this year?

The post The latest Philips Evnia monitor delivers 260Hz gaming for less than £160 first appeared on KitGuru.

Philips has introduced the Evnia 27M2G5800, a 27-inch gaming monitor featuring a dual-mode Fast IPS panel. The display allows users to switch between a native 5K resolution for high-fidelity tasks and a high-refresh QHD mode for competitive gaming. 

According to ITHome, the Evnia 27M2G5800 has a native resolution of 5120×2880, with a pixel density of 217 PPI. In 5K mode, the monitor supports a native 165Hz refresh rate, which can be overclocked to 180Hz. Alternatively, the display can be toggled to a 2560×1440 QHD mode to unlock refresh rates up to 330Hz.

Philips rates the display at a peak brightness of 500 nits and a 1000:1 contrast ratio. It features VESA DisplayHDR 400 certification and supports adaptive sync, including official G-Sync compatibility. Also, the brand claims a 1ms GtG response time, a 10-bit colour depth, and a wide colour gamut coverage (Adobe RGB: 95%, DCI-P3: 98%, sRGB: 137%).

Connectivity is handled by two HDMI 2.1 ports and a single DisplayPort 2.1. The latter is required to utilise the 5K resolution at its 180Hz overclocked limit. The monitor also features a USB hub with one USB-B upstream port and two USB-A downstream ports, along with a 3.5mm headphone jack. Integrated software features include Shadow Boost, Smart Crosshair, and Smart MBR. It is currently listed at 4999 yuan (£544).

KitGuru says: Although the converted price makes this monitor quite enticing, if it ever comes to the West, it won't likely come as cheaply. Still, the Evnia 27M2G5800 looks like a very versatile monitor for anything you throw at it.
