VA display delivers awesome images with wide viewing angles. The Philips VA LED display uses an advanced multi-domain 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 extra-wide viewing angle, resulting in crisp images. Curved display design for a more immersive experience. 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. Built-in stereo speakers for multimedia. 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. Eyesafe-certified blue light protection and colour accuracy. Philips display meets the TUV Rheinland Eyesafe® standard to truly protect you from long exposure to blue light. The always-on blue light filter not only helps reduce digital eye strain but also guarantees colour integrity. Tilt, swivel, and height-adjust for an ideal viewing position. The Compact Ergo Base is a people-friendly Philips monitor base that tilts, swivels, and height-adjusts so each user can position the monitor for maximum viewing comfort and efficiency.

This feature makes for a tidy desktop and provides a handy cable management solution for your workspace. SmartKVM for easily switching between sources. Unlike traditional built-in KVM monitor buttons, the smart KVM allows for switching between sources with the click of a button on your keyboard. When all devices are properly connected, users can easily switch between sources by clicking the Ctrl key three times. PowerSensor saves up to 80% energy costs. PowerSensor is a built-in 'people sensor' that transmits and receives harmless infrared signals to determine if the user is present and then automatically reduces monitor brightness when the user steps away from the desk, cutting energy costs by up to 80 percent and prolonging monitor life. RJ-45 to USB-C gives easy network connection with security. Simplify all peripherals from monitor to PC using one-cable docking USB Type-C connector, including networking, high-resolution video output from PC to monitor, and surfing on the Internet without an additional network cable, even without a LAN port on your notebook. RJ45 connection through USB-C offers a fast and secure connection when needed. Getting the fastest data speeds allows you to transfer data from a HDD to your PC faster than ever. Additionally, USB-C with power delivery can even enable you to power and charge your notebook from the monitor, eliminating the need for extra power cables.
