The Philips 27M2N5500 27" monitor offers smooth and detailed gaming. Its 27" IPS panel with a Quad HD resolution of 2560 × 1440 pixels renders a sharp image with accurate colours from wide viewing angles. A high 180Hz refresh rate combined with a fast 1ms (GtG) response time delivers exceptionally smooth motion. For even sharper visuals in fast-paced scenes, a Smart MBR function with a 0.5ms response time is available. This QHD monitor with a 180Hz refresh rate supports both AMD FreeSync and G-Sync compatibility, which synchronise the frame rate of the graphics card with the monitor and effectively eliminate screen tearing. DisplayHDR 400 certification provides better contrast and more vibrant colours.

Key Features of the 27" Philips 27M2N5500 Monitor
AMD FreeSync and G-Sync compatibility reduces screen tearing
VESA DisplayHDR 400 certified display shows enhanced contrast and colours
The SmartErgoBase ergonomic stand offers height, tilt, swivel and pivot adjustment
The VESA standard allows for mounting on a wall or a compatible arm
The display of 1.07 billion colours creates smooth colour gradients
Smart ShadowBoost and Smart Crosshair gaming features provide a tactical advantage
High Resolution and Smooth Motion
The 27" IPS panel with Quad HD 2560 × 1440 resolution displays fine details with high pixel density. IPS technology brings consistent colours and wide 178° viewing angles. 8-bit + FRC colour depth reproduces 1.07 billion colours, which creates smooth colour gradients without visible banding. The refresh rate reaches 180Hz and, together with the 1ms (GtG) response time, reduces motion blur. AMD FreeSync and G-Sync compatibility technologies then eliminate screen tearing and stuttering.
Gaming Features
SmartImage game modes offer optimised profiles for different genres, such as FPS, Racing or RTS, and adjust image parameters for specific situations. The Smart ShadowBoost feature intelligently brightens dark areas of the scene without overexposing the light parts, revealing opponents hidden in the shadows. Smart MBR Sync effectively combines motion blur reduction with adaptive sync for a sharp and smooth image. The Smart Crosshair adds a permanent crosshair to the screen, the colour of which changes according to the background, which improves visibility.
Fully Adjustable Ergonomics
The SmartErgoBase stand provides wide customisation options. You can adjust the height of the monitor by 130mm for an optimal position in relation to your eyes and correct posture. You can tilt the screen between -5° and +20°, which helps eliminate glare from ambient lighting. The ability to swivel sideways by +/-30° makes it easy to share content with others. The Pivot function allows you to rotate the panel by 90° to a vertical position, which is practical for working with code or reading long texts. It also supports VESA 100 × 100mm mounting.
Connectivity Options
The monitor offers a wide range of options for connecting to a computer and other devices. To take full advantage of the monitor's potential, such as QHD resolution at 180Hz, DisplayPort 1.4 is used. Two HDMI 2.0 ports are suitable for game consoles and multimedia devices.

Colour Gamut
Specifies how accurately the monitor can display colours. sRGB is ideal for web, movies or games. DCI-P3/Adobe RGB will be appreciated by graphic designers or professionals at work. The higher the value, the better the monitor displays colours.
Maximum Brightness
The value, given in nits or cd/m², determines the brightness of the monitor. A brightness of over 400 nits is key for HDR content and readability in sunlight, while standard office monitors are sufficient with values over 250.
Refresh Rate and Response Time
The refresh rate (Hz) determines the number of frames displayed per second, so the higher the value, the smoother the image and the less eye strain. A lower response time (ms) value eliminates motion blur. 144Hz+ is ideal for gaming, while values around 75Hz are suitable for office monitors.
