Highlights
Curved display design
Desktop monitors offer a personal user
experience, which suits a curved design very
well. The curved screen provides a pleasant yet
subtle immersion effect, which focuses on you
at the centre of your desk.
Ultra Wide-Color Technology
Ultra Wide-Color Technology delivers a wider
spectrum of colours for a more brilliant
picture. The Ultra Wide-Color wider "colour
gamut" produces more natural-looking greens,
vivid reds and deeper blues. Bring media
entertainment, images and even productivity
more alive with vivid colours from Ultra WideColor Technology.
VA display
Philips' VA LED display uses an advanced multidomain vertical alignment technology that
gives you super-high static contrast ratios for
extra-vivid and bright images. While standard
office applications are handled with ease, it is
especially suitable for photos, web browsing,
films, gaming and demanding graphical
applications. Its optimised pixel management
technology gives you a 178/178-degree extrawide viewing angle, resulting in crisp images.
16:9 Full HD display
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.
Flicker-Free technology
Due to the way brightness is controlled on
LED-backlit screens, some users experience
flicker on their screen which causes eye
fatigue. Philips Flicker-Free technology applies
a new solution to regulate brightness and
reduce flicker for more comfortable viewing.
SmartImage Lite
SmartImage Lite is an exclusive, leading edge
Phili
ps technology that analyses the content
displayed on your screen. Based on a scenario
you select, SmartImage Lite dynamically
enhances the contrast, colour saturation and
sharpness of images and videos for ultimate
display performance - all in real time with the
press of a single button.
SmartContrast
SmartContrast is a Philips technology that
analyses the contents you are displaying,
automatically adjusting colours and controlling
backlight intensity to dynamically enhance
contrast for the best digital images and videos
or when playing games where dark hues are
displayed. When Economy mode is selected,
contrast is adjusted and backlighting fine-tuned
for just-right display of everyday office
applications and lower power consumption.
Built-in stereo speakers
A pair of high-quality stereo speakers built into
a
display device. They may be visible front
firing, or invisible down firing, top firing, rear
firing etc. depending on model and design.
DisplayPort connection
DisplayPort is a digital link from PC to monitor
without any conversion. With higher
capabilities than DVI standard, it is fully capable
to support up to 15 metre cables and 10.8
Gbps/sec data transfer. With this high
performance and zero latency, you get the
fastest imaging and refresh rates — making
DisplayPort the best choice for not only
general office or home use, but also for the
more demanding gaming and films, video
editing and more. It also keeps interoperability
in mind via the use of various adapters.
