I bought the Philips 27M1F5800 for 350 € from amazon Warehouse Deal :) and so far I'm really impressed. The colors are fantastic out of the box. Lots of connection options etc. But when I set the monitor to 144 Hz in Windows, I have a Screen flickering in games with activated or deactivated Free Sync, only when I reduce the Hz to 120 is the flickering gone.
Hi, thanks for your comment, I am glad your enjoying your new monitor, this is strange with the flickering, dose this continue when using any of the presets?
@@RickysTechTalk Appreciate the reply! I am using it for both work and games. So far so good, though with my work laptop only having Intel iRIS Xe graphics, I can only get 1440p 60Hz from it over HDMI. My Razer Blade 15 can push it to 1440p 144Hz (HDR) which looks great!
@@Matt33318 I don't, but that's partially because I use it for work daily and have it at 70% brightness all of the time. Plus I always use it in a well lit room. But it's an awesome panel!
Hello, I bought the same monitor last month, and it was a bit expensive compared to its alternatives. When I first got it, I was really impressed by the beautiful colors, and the bezel-less design just blew me away because it's hard to find a monitor with no bezels on all four sides. I bought it mainly for design work and occasionally gaming because I found the color gamut to be sufficient. However, after using it for about a month, I noticed yellowish stains appearing on the right and bottom edges of the screen. The yellow spots started appearing on the bezels, and they kept getting worse over time. Eventually, I decided to return the monitor. Now, I'm thinking about purchasing the same model again, but I'm worried that the same problem might occur. Have you experienced anything like this with your monitor? Or do you have any of these yellow stains? I’d really appreciate it if you could share your experience. Thanks!
Hello, Thank you for your comment, and I'm sorry to hear about your experience. I didn't notice this, but I know it can happen in a small percentage of monitors. If you like this monitor, you can purchase it again, and it should be perfect. It might be that you received a defective display.
@@RickysTechTalk I ordered monitor again but the one that came was the same. Either there is a problem with these monitors or the ones I received are faulty. If I had the chance to send a picture I would send it and show it but I guess RU-vid does not allow links. I set the monitor to 100 brightness and cold colors, it becomes visible that way. I would be very happy if you could try it and get back to me.
Came accross this now after ordering the glossy 4k spectrum a month ago. Instead of waiting for that, i just went ahead and ordrered this 27M1F5800 instead. Thanks for the review!
@@Demetrius900000 The 27m1f5800P is really a great one. Its one of the very few monitors that actually has everything. Talking about how the monitor itself looks with the thin bezels around, not too much bezels on the panel itself. I have it on a monitor arm btw. There are a somewhat many options to find the picture quality you want, aswell colors. I play all my games on «competitive» settings: CS/PUBG/R6/BF4. I achieve stable fps way above 300 on most of these games, and i must say i feel a slowness in my surroundings when flicking around.-from my monitor. This isnt noticable when playing casually and not flicking around everywhere. Maybe it could be fixed with a firmware update?
Literally just looking to buy the 4k version. I see you've also tested the 279M1RV. They seem almost identical. Would you say there is any noticeable difference between the two? Other than Ambiglow and integrated power supply.
Hi, thanks for your comment, I would go for the 4K version showed in this video, I prefered the colour response and gaming experince was great both consoles, however when it comes to pc gaming unsure as tried to test with Mac but that isnt designed for pc gaming.
Hi ricky, thank you for this great Rewiews! 👌🏻 I would buy a monitor for my PS5.. do you prefer the Evnia 5500 QHD nano IPS or the Odyssey G7 UHD S28BG702? Thank you!
Estoy pensando en comprar un monitor para mi ps5, no entiendo mucho de informática😅 me recomiendas el Philips de 32 pulgadas o el de 27 que tiene papel mano ips? Estoy esperando el pedido de 32 pulgadas pero si es mejor el de 27 cambio el pedido, gracias de antemano ❤️
Hi, thanks for your comment, apologies for reply in English, the 27" or 32" is a great option for PS5 gaming. I would go 32" over 27" just because of a bigger screen is preferred, spec wise I don't believe there is a massive difference so it comes to personal choices.
Hey man, I really liked your detailed review. As I'm planning to buy the 4k version for work and my Xbox Series X, I was wondering how you managed to plug in an external sound device... It's probably a stupid question, but I never used sound bars, and I'm absolutely clueless :D
Hi, thank you for your kind comment, you have a couple of options, either USB connected speakers through the work machine or Xbox also with the monitor having audio out port you can connect a speaker this way to. Or you could use the USB port on the monitor too.
Hi Ricky, there were friends who asked in the comments, but I could not see an answer. Can you verify the bandwidth of the HDMI 2.1 ports on the monitor? Have you had a chance to use it on PS5? How was its performance? Thanks in advance...
Hi, both monitors have been tested with the PS5 and I didn't experience any issues. Unfortunately these are review models and unable to test the bandwidth however their website offers this information 2560 x 1440 @ 144 Hz (HDMI); 2560 x 1440 @ 240 Hz* (DP)
Thank you for this detailed test report. 👍👍 I have one more question. Can the monitor also be switched off completely, or does it only work with the power button/stick in stand-by mode? I've read that the LED on the front of the monitor should flash quite annoyingly when the monitor is in stand-by. It would therefore be important for me to be able to switch off the monitor completely. Would be very grateful to you for an answer.
Hi, thanks for your comment, I would say it was a great monitor and permanence was good for steam gaming via a Mac, unfortunately I need to get a new pc so I can these monitors more. I hope you have a great day.
Any idea how the 27M1F5800 compares to LG 27GP950 (or GN950) when it comes to reflections and glare handling? I had the GN950 and had to return it due to how badly it handled glare even in moderately dark environment, and I suspect the 27M1F5800 might actually be using the same panel, which would mean the same issues... Thanks.
Hi, thank you for your comment, being honest I wouldn't be able to tell you as I haven't had the chance to work with LG, I will reach out to them and see if I can get one in for review.
Hi, thanks for your comments, I don't believe so on these monitors, here is their spec sheet that I use for research and creating my content, I can't see anything on here either. www.philips.co.uk/c-p/27M1F5800_00/evnia-gaming-monitor-4k-uhd-gaming-monitor
@@RickysTechTalk ok is there nothing like low framerate compensation where the monitor displays an image twice? So with this monitor, if my framerate drops below 60 Hz, I will get tearing?
Thanks for your comment, as these are review units they do get shipped around a lot, one on the left had slight bleed but otherwise I didn't see anything overwhelming.
Hi, thanks for your comment, I will take this feedback onboard and make sure to add negative points in future reviews, however I must say when I don't experience any negatives in my review I won't add any.
Hi, thanks for your comment, I used preset gaming modes when using the PS5, you can change these yourself within the monitor settings and in display settings on the PS5.
