BrillianceDisplay LCD curvo in 32:9 SuperWide

49" with 1800R & 165Hz is simply great. Contrast & colors are much better than rivals. I'm loving this monitor more & more as I use it. Stand design is beautiful, very chic & useful. Inputs are OK. But... SmartControl needs urgent attention from PHILIPS as it interferes with Windows power settings ! My 498P9Z goes to sleep as intended but sometimes it does NOT Wake Up by the mouse or keyboard, although the PC is awakened. Front control buttons of the monitor do NOT work and Power button does NOT wake up the monitor. The only way to wake up the monitor is to cycle power from the main ON/OFF switch at the back. Using the latest v6.23.00 but it has had this wake up / interfering problem for 10 months. After updates, especially v6.22.00 it improved just a little but still have the random wake-up problem. * If you reboot the PC "without" SmartControl software everything runs normal. 498P9Z wakes up, No problems at all. I'm using MS PowerToys (Fancy Zones) instead of SmartControl at the moment but after every wake-up, windows always show a warning : "Display connection might be limited. Make sure the DisplayPort device you're connecting to is supported by your PC" But I'm already using the original, supplied DP cable + RX 6700 XT and connected the UpLink via USB 3.1 (blue inlet) cable my PC to 498P9Z Last but not least, SmartControl software needs to be updated with an optional "Dark Mode" version. That white background is so flashy and disturbing for the eyes when PC is booting. The layout and UI has to be updated with more modern letters too... It looks so outdated and OLD !
