144 Hz refresh rates for ultra-smooth, brilliant images

You play intense, competitive games. You demand a display with lag-free, ultra-smooth images. This Philips display redraws the screen image up to 144 times per second, effectively 2.4x faster than a standard display. A lower frame rate can make enemies appear to jump from spot to spot on the screen, making them difficult targets to hit. With 144 Hz frame rate, you get those critical missing images on the screen, showing enemy movement in ultra-smooth motion so you can easily target them. With ultra-low input lag and no screen tearing, this Philips display is your perfect gaming partner

Ein Must-Have für jeden Gamer!

Als ich das erste mal das Paket geöffnet habe dachte ich mir das der Aufbau dieses Gerätes mich aufhalten werde, doch nach genauerem hinschauen und probieren war es so simpel wie nie zuvor. Der Monitor wird einfach am Ständer eingeknippst und schon kann es losgehen!. Was mir sofort ins Auge gestochen ist sind die Fantastischen Farben die dieses Gerät ausstrahlt! Perfekte einstellung zum erststart (man kann sein Profil allerdings verändern wenn man nicht zufrieden ist und unter User 1 oder 2 Speichern). Was ich auch sehr gelungen finde sind die Optionen die man per SmartKeypad benutzen kann, zum ersten wäre damit die Menüführung die damit nicht leichter sein kann! und zum zweiten wären da die verschiedenen Optionen wie z.B der FPS Modus für den Monitor, er erhellt das ganze schwarze auf (was bei Battlefield so manchen Vorteil erschaffen hat), bei Rennspielen wird die ms angehoben! einfach toll. Zum Design gibt es zu sagen das es ganz schlicht ist und nicht wirklich was besonderes. Das tolle aber ist das man den Monitor höhenverstellen kann, seitlich bis zu 90 Grad drehen kann, und ein bissel nach vorne und nach hinten neigen kann, so ist für jeden die richtige größe Individuell einstellbar. Fazit: Wenn ihr ein guten Monitor für eure Games wollt (der Phillips 242G ist extra für Gamer) dann solltet ihr ihn sofort holen, ich bin sicher ihr werdet nicht enttäuscht sein über das Produkt.
