Monitors & Displays Holding B.V. (MMD), Philips’ monitor license partner, announces the Philips Momentum Designed for Xbox gaming monitors.
These “Designed for Xbox” console gaming monitors are built from the ground up to provide the ultimate experience for Xbox fans. The inclusion of the new HDMI 2.1 spec now enables next-gen console gaming with 4K resolution and faster 120Hz refresh rates. This results in ultra-clear and ultra-smooth gaming performance.
A New Frontier in Console Gaming
To deliver the optimal validated Xbox Series X performance, MMD has partnered with Xbox to tune these displays. Unlike televisions, the Philips Momentum are built with low latency and low lag as priorities. The series’ low input lag is a great advantage when playing twitch-sensitive video games. It allows the input to register on the screen faster.
The flagship 55-inch Philips Momentum (559M1RYV) will include a specially designed speaker enclosure from the engineers at Bowers & Wilkins, a British loudspeaker company globally known for their innovative designs and sound engineering. Though developed for Xbox use, Playstation fans can also use the gaming monitor with a PS5. It is ideal for playing PS5 games using HDMI 2.1 technology with 4K graphics and 120Hz refresh rates on PS5-exclusive titles.
Designed for Xbox
The new console gaming monitors delivers “Designed by Xbox” validated performance with ultra-clear 4K resolution at a minimum 120Hz refresh rate, HDR support with DisplayHDR 1000, Variable Refresh Rate for smooth gaming, and Always Low Latency gaming. These monitors have been extensively tested and validated by engineers at Microsoft and MMD to ensure perfect compatibility, while also meeting the high expectations of Xbox fans.
“At Xbox, we are always looking to give our fans choice in how, what and where they play their favorite games. Today, we’re excited to announce our partnership with Philips to deliver the first Designed for Xbox monitor, giving fans a unique display with technology and features that provide the ultimate console gaming experience for Xbox Series X|S.”
Said Matt Kesselring, Director of Xbox Hardware Partnerships.
