Philips 436M6VBPAB Momentum Monitor
Picture quality, the lowest latency possible, immersive entertainment, and a user-friendly experience are some of the gaming improvements you can only obtain by using a dedicated monitor. These features and many more can now be found in the stunning new line of Philips Momentum monitors designed specifically for console gaming.
For the most immersive experience, look no further than the 43” Philips Momentum 436M6VBPAB, the first monitor of the Philips Momentum Line. This revolutionary monitor is designed for home entertainment with today’s console gamers specifically in mind.
Featuring award-winning design and cutting-edge technology, it removes the drawbacks of the TV by delivering top-notch picture performance and the ability to match fast and changing refresh rates for effortlessly smooth game play. The result: gamers can quit worrying about technological glitches and constraints, and fully immerse themselves in the gaming experience instead. With a myriad of special features that allow users to let go and get in the moment, the Philips Momentum 436M6VBPAB offers console gamers a clear advantage over TV monitors.
Realistic graphics
Superb picture quality immediately sets the Philips Momentum 436M6VBPAB apart. A breathtaking ultra-clear 4K UHD resolution (3840 x 2160 pixels) delivers nearly surgical precision on its generous 43-inch VA panel. Ultra Wide-Color Technology packs a visual punch with a colour spectrum that ensures more natural greens, vivid reds, and deeper blues, further enhanced by Quantum Dot Technology, an innovative semiconductor technology usually reserved for a select few high-end TVs. But that’s not all: the Momentum 436M6VBPAB is the world’s first display to comply with the new VESA DisplayHDR 1000 standard, meaning more lifelike, vibrant visuals with superior brightness, depth, and nuance. With the latest consoles producing 4K resolution and HDR (High Dynamic Range) in selected games, the Momentum 436M6VBPAB is the ally console gamers need.
Uninterrupted action
Despite its stunning appearance, the Momentum 436M6VBPAB isn’t all looks. A true console gaming monitor, it comes equipped with a wealth of features to give gamers the upper edge. Adaptive Sync, a high-performance video card synchronization technology, matches the frame rate of the rendered imagery with the display’s refresh rate to eliminate the tearing and stuttering caused by mismatched frames, while low input lag reduces the device-to-display time for faster visual feedback and satisfying motion gaming. And, the Philips monitor-exclusive pixel overdrive technology SmartResponse enables ghosting-free, blur-free images in fast-paced games and movies with the lowest latency possible.
Immersive entertainment
The Momentum 436M6VBPAB is also perfect for other forms of casual entertainment such as watching movies or television, which benefit not only from the monitor’s colour performance and responsiveness, but also from an additional technology that makes the viewing experience uniquely immersive: Ambiglow lighting. Particularly well-suited for movies, sports, and gaming, Ambiglow emits a halo of warm light that enlarges the screen and intensifies entertainment. An internal processor analyses image content and continuously adapts the colour and brightness of the light to match the image. The Momentum 436M6VBPAB also delivers exceptional audio, thanks to two built-in high-quality 7W stereo speakers with DTS Sound™.
User-friendly practicality
The designers of the Momentum 436M6VBPAB took care to make it both visually sophisticated and as practical and user-friendly as possible, which is why it includes USB-C support, DisplayPort 1.2, Mini DisplayPort, and HDMI 2.0 video signal inputs for heightened connectivity, MultiView with two sources for improved multi-tasking, and a built-in USB 3.0 hub for extended versatility. The Momentum 436M6VBPAB even comes with a Philips EasyLink remote control, enabling users to control multiple connected devices with ease.
These major features mark the difference to TVs, with TVs so far from meeting the most different needs of demanding console gamers. Crafted from premium materials and equipped with every feature necessary to make console gaming and entertainment a true pleasure for all, the Momentum 436M6VBPAB is an invitation to get in the moment.

Even if 1000 nits, not every unit, brand, model will necessarily perform equally. Maybe over time quality may level out and we begin to see more standardized performance. Also not sure how 1000 nits will translate for PC monitors up close (24-30").
The monitor also put in a very competent HDR performance, which accentuated its strengths in contrast and helped games and other HDR content make better use of its colour gamut. Being capable of outputting (over) 1000 cd/m² looks very impressive on paper, as does being the first monitor on the market with VESA DisplayHDR 1000 certification. In practice, the extreme brightness was noticeable. But even with a 32-dimming zone backlight solution, there was an undesirable leaching out of light into areas of the image that should be kept much darker than they were. Fortunately, there was a more moderate HDR setting that gave less extreme but still very impressive luminance output of around half that. Plenty to make bright elements stand out with eye-catching brilliance, whilst at the same time keeping the depth and atmosphere required in dark areas. The upshot of this; easily the most impressive HDR performance we’ve come across yet on a monitor. Even more impressive than the ASUS PA32UC and its 384-dimming zone solution. Which, don’t get us wrong, was impressive in some respects. It’s just that VA panels are much better at blocking light and can deal with mixed very bright and very dim content better. The holy grail for HDR, of course, would be per-pixel illumination – but we’re not there yet...

It's not 10bit and therefore you might not call it HDR, I can understand that.
But we have 93% Adobe RGB and 97.6% DCI-P3, just 1.01deltaE (on my unit), in a consumer grade monitor. And we do hit the VESA1000 standard. (Which can be too bright for close up distance, that's something I've learned as well.) But we can also set it to insane constrast.
So we have all the important facts for HDR:
brightness
colours
contrast
Yet some of you talk so negative, exactly like it's another 350nits 'HDR' panel. Sure it's a strange piece of hardware, any 43' monitor is quite uncommon, but this thing is even more for a specific audience only. But it got what everyone (at least me) was waiting for to have actual good HDR, finally all together in one monitor (and that far below the 2500€ of prior true HDR1000 monitors).

it is not 10 bit, which means its not true HDR, let alone HDR 10.
it is very nice, i don't mean to sound insulting, but its HDR - compatible, not HDR.
for most people that is good enough.
