Low Input Lag

Input lag is the amount of time that elapses
between performing an action with connected
devices and seeing the result on screen. Low
input lag reduces the time delay between
entering a command from your devices to
monitor, greatly improving play on twitch­sensitive video games, particularly important
for playing fast-paced, competitive games.

Flicker-Free technology

These Philips displays utilise high-performance
panels to deliver UltraClear, 4K UHD (3840 x

2160) resolution images. Whether you are a
demanding professional requiring extremely
detailed images for CAD solutions, a user of
3D graphics applications or a financial wizard
working on huge spreadsheets, Philips displays
will make your images and graphics come alive.

The new Philips gaming display has quick­access OSD fine-tuned for gamers, offering you
multiple options. "FPS" mode (First person
shooting) improves dark themes in games,
allowing you to see hidden objects in dark
areas. "Racing" mode adapts the display with
the fastest response time and high colour,
along with image adjustments. "RTS" mode
(Real-time strategy) has a special SmartFrame
mode that enables highlighting of specific area
and allows for size and image adjustments.
Gamer 1 and Gamer 2 enable you to save
personal customised settings based on
different games, ensuring best performance.

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.

Compact Ergo Base

The Compact Ergo Base is a people-friendly
Phil

ips monitor base that tilts, swivels and
height-adjusts so each user can position the
monitor for maximum viewing comfort and
efficiency.
