Evnia ships the first native 1000Hz gaming monitor

Evnia (Philips' gaming brand) and BOE just launched the 25M4P5200T, the first monitor to hit 1000Hz natively. That means no frame interpolation tricks — just a panel that refreshes a thousand times per second at 1920×1080. It's a 25-inch IPS screen, so expect decent color over TN's usual washed-out look.

This is a pure esports play. 1000Hz matters if you're already maxing out a 360Hz panel and need every millisecond shaved off input lag. For everyone else, the jump from 360Hz to 1000Hz is imperceptible outside a lab. You'd need a 4090 or 5090 pushing 800+ FPS in Valorant or CS2 to even feed it.

Evnia didn't announce pricing or a ship date. Expect north of $800, maybe $1,200 if they're feeling bold. The 360Hz ROG Swift hit $700 at launch, and that was three years ago. This is a tier above.

If you're already on 240Hz or 360Hz and not playing in the top 0.1% of ranked ladders, save your money. If you are in that tier, check your current settings to make sure you're already pulling the frames this thing needs.
