I'm really impressed with the Philips Evnia 5000 34" (34M2C5501A) on paper, and I'm considering making the jump. I'm looking for a monitor that performs well for both creative tasks and gaming, and this one seems promising. The 3440x1440 resolution is exactly what I need. Color accuracy is crucial for my workflow; has anyone used this monitor for color grading or photo editing and can share their experience with the VA panel's performance? On the gaming side, the 180Hz refresh rate and low response time are definitely appealing. I'm currently using the [ASUS TUF Gaming VG27AQ](/monitors/asus/tuf-gaming-vg27aq) and am curious how the Evnia 5000 compares. I've also considered the [Samsung Odyssey G60SD](/monitors/samsung/odyssey-g60sd); has anyone switched from that model to the Evnia? The HDR10 and Dolby Vision support is a huge plus, but in reality are these legit with a VA panel or just badges for marketing?
