Summary
Conclusion
Overall, the Philips EVNIA 34M2C8600 is an excellent choice for anyone looking for a high-quality monitor that combines very good gaming performance, high-contrast picture quality and true HDR. And now the BUT. Unfortunately, the Philips EVNIA isn’t quite perfect either. For one thing, the gray scale tracking in Peak 1000 Nits mode needs to be revised by TPV. Secondly, this monitor is also afflicted by the – I’ll call it the AMD FreeSync Premium Pro epidemic. This topic is now a recurring theme in almost all monitor articles, and not just mine. AMD really needs to take a serious look at this – together with the manufacturers. It’s almost embarrassing now!
Furthermore, the 34M2C8600 has unfortunately not been able to deliver the promised DeltaE < 2. Now we will see to what extent TPV can make improvements here. I will definitely take a look at this. The only question that remains now is whether I can recommend the monitor?
Clearly yes – especially for those readers who are looking for a white monitor with real HDR! The Philips EVNIA 34M2C8600 currently (as of week 15) costs “only” 783 euros, making it the cheapest ultrawide OLED monitor you can buy. Due to the teething problems, I don’t want to give it an award yet. If Philips (TPV) really delivers here in May with the next firmware, there will be a follow-up article – with appropriate recognition. So the ball is not in my court!
The monitor was provided to me by Philips (TPV) without obligation – for testing purposes. There was no influence on the tests and results. There was also no compensation for expenses and no obligation to publish by Philips or anyone else.
