Our take
The NEC MultiSync MA491 is a capable 49-inch 4K monitor. The anti-glare coating is a plus for bright rooms, and the 8000:1 contrast ratio makes colors pop. The built-in speakers are handy for casual use, though they're not audiophile-grade. With a 60 Hz refresh rate and 8 ms response time, it's fine for strategy or casual games but not competitive gaming. The Ethernet port is great for digital signage. Overall, it's a solid all-rounder, but gamers wanting higher frame rates should look elsewhere.
