IPS LED wide view technology for image and colour accuracy

IPS displays use an advanced technology that gives you extra-wide viewing angles of 178/178 degrees, making it possible to view the display from almost any angle. Unlike standard TN panels, IPS displays give you remarkably crisp images with vivid colours, making them ideal not only for Photos, movies and web browsing, but also for professional applications that demand colour accuracy and consistent brightness at all times.

16:9 Full HD display

16:9 Full HD display for crisp, detailed images

Picture quality matters. Regular displays deliver quality, but you expect more. This display features enhanced Full HD 1920 x 1080 resolution. With Full HD for crisp detail paired with high brightness, incredible contrast and realistic colours, expect a true-to-life picture.

120 Hz refresh rates for ultra-smooth images

The smoother the motion, the less strain on your eyes. This Philips monitor is equipped with an improved 120 Hz refresh rate. Whenever you scroll, switch between applications or navigate complex spreadsheets, you experience smoother and more precise movements. That means you can work as long as you need with minimal visual fatigue—all while increasing the speed of your workflow.

SoftBlue Technology: for comfortable viewing

SoftBlue Technology: for comfortable viewing

SoftBlue technology offers increased visual comfort and protection against adverse health effects caused by prolonged exposure to blue light. With the low blue-light panel, the ratio of display emission light in the range of 415-455 nm to 400-500 nm is reduced to less than 50%. As a result, the SoftBlue technology provides optimal visual comfort, minimises eye strain and supports sustained focus. Not to mention, SoftBlue LED technology is tested and TÜV Rheinland Low Blue Light (Hardware Solution) certified for its effectiveness in reducing blue light emissions.

Both on and off, this monitor looks good!

Image is sharp and monitor got plenty of features like connectivity for video and USB (data / charge). With built-in ethernet it's a good choice for laptop users, but works well for desktop use too of course. With an update frequency of 120 Hz you can use this monitor for gaming as well. Personal wishlist: A couple more USB ports at the back, and VGA input.
