A new monitor in the company’s offer Philipsis an ultra-wide monitor 49B2U5900CH. It is mainly aimed at the work area, but it also has a few features that can make it interesting for those who like to play a game sometimes, while the work features are more important to them than the gaming ones. The novelty has an extremely wide-angle aspect ratio of 32:9 with a resolution of 5120×1440 pixels, so it is essentially two 27″ monitors with a resolution of 2560×1440 pixels side by side. A 48.8″ VA panel with a dot density of 109 ppi and curvature is used here 1800R. Although its GTG response is not exactly short at 4ms, it can please gamers by supporting a slightly increased frequency of 75Hz, which is not much more than the standard 60Hz, but still better than nothing. In addition, there is support for Adaptive Sync, both in the case of HDMI and DP in the range of 48 to 75 Hz, the USB-C interface will even offer 30-75 Hz. An interesting feature is the headphone stand, which will be used by gamers and users who often make teleconference calls. The monitor is adapted for this with a 5 MPx camera with Windows Hello support. This camera can even be tilted up to 30°.
Thanks to the VA panel, you can look forward to a high contrast of 3000:1. Brightness reaches a maximum value of 450 nits and DisplayHDR 400 is also supported. Although the monitor supports 10-bit colors, it achieves this with an 8-bit panel using FRC. It covers 97% of the NTSC space, 119% of sRGB (it also offers a special mode for displaying sRGB), and promises high color accuracy (Delta E<2). There is a Busylight function, where a red light on the webcam can be used to tell others that you are busy (suitable for busy offices). The light can even react to the status in Microsoft Teams.
We have two HDMI 2.0 ports, one DisplayPort 1.4 and one USB-C with DP-Alt and Power Delivery up to 100 W. There is also one USB-B, two USB-A and one more USB-C (data, 15W PD) , all support 5 Gbps max. Gigabit Ethernet (via USB) is also available. Support for PIP and PBP, as well as the KVM Switch, which uses both USB-C ports, is almost a matter of course today. This simplifies everything beautifully (no need to drag USB and graphics input separately), on the other hand, it significantly complicates the connection of many PCs that usually do not have this type of output. The monitor can be adjusted in height within a range of 150 mm, it can be tilted from -5° to +15°, to the sides by +/-30° and there is also the possibility of mounting it on the wall (VESA 100×100mm). In ECO mode, the monitor consumes 39 W, typically 46.1 W. In the EU, the monitor will cost EUR 1,199 (less than CZK 30,000).
