Philips has unveiled the 49B2U6900CH, a new ultra-wide office monitor aimed at boosting productivity and collaboration in professional environments. This monitor succeeds the 49B2U5900CH, released just three months ago, and offers enhanced I/O capabilities, improving upon its predecessor. Let’s delve into its key specs.
Philips 49B2U6900CH Specifications:
This curved monitor stands out with its large 48.8-inch anti-glare LCD screen and a high Dual Quad HD (2K) resolution of 5120 x 1440, offering a broad and detailed display that could replace dual monitor setups. It uses a VA panel with a 1440p resolution in a 32:9 aspect ratio. It features a 75 Hz refresh rate for both panels, a 3,000:1 contrast ratio, 4ms GtG, 109 PPI pixel density, and an 1800R curvature.
In terms of color accuracy, it comes with 1.07 B (8-bit + FRC), 97% NTSC, 119% sRGB coverage, and <2 Delta E deviations. The monitor prioritizes improving remote teamwork by featuring a 5MP pop-up webcam with autoframing for video conferences, accommodating all participants.
It has a 30-degree tilt function for users of varying heights, along with a noise-canceling microphone and an integrated Busylight. The Busylight, on the webcam, turns red during calls and can sync with Microsoft Teams statuses to indicate user availability.
The monitor further enhances work efficiency with its Smart KVM feature. This feature allows users to switch between sources easily by pressing the “Ctrl” key three times, integrating a KVM switch directly into the monitor. The monitor’s USB-C cable facilitates the charging of external devices through power delivery, adding to its convenience.
For added practicality, the Philips 49B2U6900CH includes an Earphone Hook on the bezel for easy headset storage. The monitor also boasts DisplayHDR 400 certification, Low Blue Mode with Flicker-Free technology, and a height-adjustable stand, providing an immersive and comfortable viewing experience.
The monitor offers a variety of ports for connectivity. On the left-hand side, it includes a 3.5 mm combo jack, a USB Type-C port with 15W power delivery, and two USB Type-A ports. At the rear, there is a 2.5 Gigabit Ethernet port, a DisplayPort 1.4, two HDMI 2.0 ports, two more USB Type-A ports, and two USB 3.2 Gen2 Type-C ports that support DisplayPort Alt mode and 100W USB Power Delivery.
The monitor also comes with a pair of 5W speakers with Windows Hello integration and is priced at €1249 for European markets and £959.99 in the UK.
A few days back, Philips also launched a new TV called OLED+959 Ambilight with a staggering peak brightness of 3,000 nits.
