Verdict: “The 4K iteration of the Philips Momentum 5000 is a cracking monitor for PC and console, with a Nano IPS panel that will make your games look their absolute best.

If it isn’t clear already, I really enjoy using the Philips Momentum 5000 27M1F5800, and I can recommend it wholeheartedly. While its simplistic and slightly minimalist design finds it wanting in terms of controls and UI, it threads the needle and is both a brilliant professional and gaming-centric monitor.

In terms of display, (the thing that truly matters), the Nano IPS panel is a 4K stunner that will make your games truly shine on a PC or console. Besides some minor brightness and contrast issues, this is the display I’ll go to from now on when I want the absolute best visual fidelity from my games.”
