Questions about Philips 49B2U6900CH

i am almost convinced to buy this screen, i have been asking and inquiring about it for weeks. I work from home almost 100% and am often on call with colleagues or customers. the integrated camera is therefore very interesting. i'm an SAP programmer, i've been using your predator 35" for years, but it sometimes feels "small" when it comes to working with programs with different toolbars for creating payrollsheets for several important customers in switzerland, this monitor would definitely be a good solution. I have read about the KVM function, very interesting, maybe I will also be able to exploit this option to attach 2 laptops simultaneously. I have one last problem: sharing the screen with other people via Teams or sometimes Zoom or other software. Question: If I share my 49" screen with someone, who at 99% will have a MUCH smaller screen, will it be possible to share only half of the screen, as if it were a separate screen? In this way this shared half of the screen, for the other people, will remain readable and not too small given the resolution and size of my monitor compared to theirs. hope I have explained myself

Hello I've just bought this screen for more efficient home office work. Until now I've had 2 24" screens + the screen of my HP professional laptop. I'd like to divide the screen into several sections and display my numerous open windows. Is there a program on this screen that automatically manages different window distributions (e.g. on the Samsung Odyssey G9, by pushing the window in the centre upwards, the screen proposes several distributions where to place the window). If so, how does it work? Do you need to install a program on the computer? (Not possible on the professional!). I've seen that some Philips screens have a function called "SmartDesk" which seems to manage this. What about this one? Thanks for your answers and help Jamouir.

To Petra-SophiaG: Thank you very much for your answer! But do you just have a gigabit connection (which will always be the case anyway) or actually 110 MB/sec. throughput? throughput? Only download, or also upload, where the data has to go out at the same time as the video signal?

I have considered this monitor because of the two USB-C ports and would like to connect two notebooks with just one USB-C cable each (no additional HDMI or DP connection). The computers would have network access via the monitor's RJ45. However, only one of the computers would be active at a time. According to the manual, it appears that the USB connection cannot handle the full native resolution together with full Gigabit Ethernet, which is why you can switch between "High Data Speed" and "High Resolution". Has anyone had any experience of how this works? How much Ethernet speed is still possible with High Resolution? Are there only restrictions for HDR signals? If you use High Data Speed, is the full native resolution not possible? Or no longer 60Hz? Or simply no HDR picture?

Does the monitor really have 1500R? According to reviews on the web it is 1800R... Thanks for a short answer.

Hello everyone I bought the Philips screen. Then I have a Logitech Wireless keyboard and a Logitech Wireless mouse. Then I have the ThinkPad laptop from Lenovo for business (various ports) and a MacBook for private use (only USB C ports). I'm just wondering what kind of docking station I need? Can anyone help me? There are various docking stations from Lenovo to choose from. I would also like to be able to charge the laptop via the docking station. Help!

Hello everyone, Can someone answer the following question regarding the Philips 49B2U6900CH monitor ? I have an HP Omen notebook with 140W battery power and would like to connect it to the Philips 49B2U6900CH monitor via USB-C. Since the monitor only has 100W USB Type-C power supply, I am not sure if there could be problems when connecting the notebook to the monitor. If the problem was just charging the device, then I could probably just connect the notebook power supply in addition, right? My goal is to connect the notebook via USB-C, RJ-45 (LAN) to the monitor and additionally via HDMI to a PS5, so that I can switch between notebook and PS5 with the KVM function. Thank you in advance for your help :)

Hello everyone, Can someone answer the following questions about PBP: 1. does the monitor recognise a second source and then switch to PBP, and if only one source is active, is it displayed full screen? 2. how do I switch keyboard and mouse from one source to the other without the installed software? Many thanks in advance :-)

I have connected two notebooks via USB-C. This works perfectly so far. I can display both computers at the same time, as well as switch computers using the on-screen buttons and the KVM (i.e. keyboard and mouse) also switch. What doesn't work, however, is switching with the HotKey. The instructions say that you can switch from one computer to another by pressing Ctrl 3 times. After pressing three times, nothing happens at all. After pressing twice, a bright circle about 5cm in size appears around the mouse and the rest of the screen is darkened (like a kind of spotlight). I don't understand what the point of this is. Does switching via HotKey work for anyone? And if so, what am I doing wrong?

salesservant, okay, curvature added to the description. It says 1500R. So contradicts to the link you provided with.

What is the curvature of this monitor? 1800R? 1500R? 1000R? Even the official website does not say anything about that. I guess it is the same as on 49B2U5900CH, which is 1800R, but would be good to know that for sure.
