Philips 499P9H Summary

As a result, the Philips 499P9H is a monitor that makes a difference with its undeniably attractive display and imposing display. Especially instead of buying 2 different monitors, you can save this work in the same body.

The price of this 49-inch monitor, which can be used for entertainment as well as for professional work environments and office applications, is now around 8199 TL. We can say that it is competitive in this field with its price. If you need a monitor in this taste, let's end our review by saying that it is useful to take a look.

Why Should Buy

They will work on multiple monitors, looking for a monitor for professional purposes, and those who like to look at large and curved screens will be delighted with the Philips 499P9H model.

We reviewed the Philips 499P9H monitor with 49-inch ultra-wide screen and 5K support!

Yes, in this review, we have a huge, wide or wide monitor. This gigantic monitor, named Philips 499P9H, has a large and 1800R curved design display built on a solid stand. And this screen is in full 5K resolution. It is obvious that it is not for everyone, let's say from the beginning. Now let's see who is this giant model of Philips, what does he offer us, what are his features?

Design and Features

The Philips 499P9H is a very large monitor, as you can see. In this sense, of course, it covers quite a large area on the table. The task of carrying this big screen is also given to a solid stand. The installation of the monitor, which rises on a metallic stand with its feet on the ground, can be a bit troublesome in this sense, because the stand is also quite heavy. But let's also say that once you set it up, it feels pretty solid.

The stand also has ergonomic features. You can adjust the monitor up to 130 mm in height, turn the screen 20 degrees on both sides and tilt 5/10 degrees to the front / back.

The monitor, designed as a curved 1800R, consists of a 32: 9 aspect ratio and a full 49 inch screen. Philips has actually combined 2 27-inch LCD panels that sit side by side on this model. Thus, this model appeals to those who want to melt 2 monitors in the same pot.

The resolution provided on the screen, as we said, is 5K. The screen, which provides a resolution of 5120 pixels in the horizontal plane, can display 1440 pixels in the vertical plane. You can think of two 2K ​​monitor hybrids side by side. In this sense, we can say that the similar model differs from the Samsung C49J89. Because in that model of Samsung, 3840 pixels on the horizontal plane and 1080 pixels on the vertical plane were provided. At this point, the Philips 499P9H takes advantage.

Speaking of the ready screen, let's also touch on the panel. Panal VA LCD with W-LED backlight system is preferred. With a response time of 5 ms gray to gray, the display features 450 candela brightness and a typical contrast ratio of 3000: 1. The screen with a pixel pitch of 0.233 mm covers 94 percent of the DCI-P3 color space, 121 percent of the sRGB color gamut, and 91 percent of the Adobe RGB color space. On the other hand, let's say that the screen has a DisplayHDR 400 certificate. So the display shows HDR support, which is another advantage over the device's counterparts.

Performance

Philips 499P9H is not a suitable monitor for everyone. We said it all over again. The monitor, which is designed for those who want to work spaciously in office environments, meets the expectation in this sense. They will work on the screen a lot at the same time, those who do not want to get lost in the office applications between the windows and especially those who are engaged in video editing will be satisfied with this model. Because the monitor covers these areas with its image quality and wide working environment it offers.

With its depth of color and especially HDR support, the model we like in general use requires configuration time to find the appropriate setting for a while when you take it out of the box. Afterwards, we can say that you will be satisfied with color and brightness points in professional uses.

Although the monitor has adaptive synchronization support with FreeSync, it is of course not a clear player monitor with a 70Hz screen refresh rate. But let's say that you won't show up when you play and even you will enjoy it especially in action, adventure and simulation games because of its wide and curved panel.

Especially in Istanbul, we can say that the monitor has found itself in Euro Truck Simulator 2 - Road to the Black Sea, which is the popular game of the last period. So you can enjoy this monitor with wide viewing angles, whether it is desktop applications, games or even movies.

It is also a suitable model for publishers as a result of its wide area. You can broadcast and follow the comments on the same monitor. On the other hand, let's state that the value of Input Lag is also at a good level.

If this is not enough for the monitor to provide, then let's talk about the KVM switch. Thanks to the MultiClient Integrated KVM switch, you can connect 2 different computers to this monitor together with the keyboard and mouse set you will connect to the monitor and manage them from a single point. At this point, of course you are using the monitor's USB-C port. The transition between sources is assigned to a key.

We mentioned that the monitor is not suitable for everyone due to its nature. As a result of the 32: 9 display ratio and resolution, the monitor's effective viewing area is 335 mm in the vertical plane. This may be narrow in the vertical plane in the first place when you face it.

For example, the vertical viewing area of ​​the Asus ROG Strix XG32VQ monitor we use is 392 mm. There is a 57 mm loss, which can make you find the screen narrow when working in some office applications or viewing web pages. At least that's our experience. However, you do not feel this deficiency in applications that require more flat areas, such as video montage works. Of course, this issue can be understood mostly by experiencing the monitor. At this point, you need to examine closely.

Connections, Webcam and Power

Finally, let's talk about a few other points of the monitor. Philips 499P9H includes a wide connection support. Next to the USB-C port, the model is rich in the USB 3.1 port and has 2 HDMI 2.0b and 1 DisplayPort 1.4 inputs. In addition, the monitor with an Ethernet connection also has a headphone jack.

There is also a webcam hidden at the top of the screen. This Full HD supported webcam is turned off when you are not using it. When you use it, you press it and take it out of the slot. Let's also say that the camera supports Windows Hello. So you can log on to Windows through face recognition.

Although it will not hike the electricity bill for the next 3 months, let's talk about the power details of the monitor in terms of you knowing. Philips 499P9H, which is in the B energy label class, consumes 45 watts of power in standard mode. In economic mode, you can reduce it to 43.3 watts. In standby mode, it consumes 0.3 watts. If you do not want to consume any power, you can turn off the monitor's Zero button and switch it to off mode instead of unplugging it.

Finally, let's say that we found the speakers of the monitor with 5W dual speakers at a sufficient level and proceed to the conclusion section.
