Effortlessly smooth action with Adaptive-Sync technology
Gaming shouldn’t be a choice between choppy game play or broken frames. Get fluid, artefact-free performance at virtually any frame rate with Adaptive-Sync technology, smooth quick refresh and ultra-fast response time.
PowerSensor saves up to 70% energy costs
PowerSensor is a built-in ‘people sensor’ that transmits and receives harmless infrared signals to determine if the user is present and automatically reduces monitor brightness when the user steps away from the desk, cutting energy costs by up to 70 percent and prolonging monitor life.
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.

Nephew loves it can’t get him out of his bedroom
Bought this to replace a Samsung 34″ wide-screen display that wouldn’t work when connected to HDMI.
Connectivity is via two HDMI ports and one display port, I opted to use the 2 HDMI ports to connect a work laptop and my own tower PC. Picture quality is excellent on both.
The monitor has a headphone jack socket and internal speakers. I have connected my speakers to the headphone jack to have sound from both machines through the speakers. Sound quality is good and ideal for what I need.
A USB hub is available by connecting your machine to the input on the monitor with 3 blue and 1 yellow port. I haven’t checked what the yellow USB is for yet.
The monitor has picture in picture and split view features which I have not tried yet, but so far so good.
34 Zoll und curved finde ich genau richtig. 2 Programme passen hlftig in angenehmer Gre nebeneinander. Dank USB C Hub und KVM kann man den Bildschirm mit 2 verschiedenen PCs nutzen. Z. B. Desktop PC und Arbeitslaptop. Die Eingnge fr alle Kabel sind durchdacht. Also ich habe nichts kritikwrdiges am Produkt gefunden. Danke an Amazon fr die schnelle Lieferung!
a vista bell’oggetto, veloce alla risposta, si auto settato in 20″ in maniera ottimale, soddisfa le mie esigenze a livello ufficio e disegno tecnico, buona luminosit, altoparlanti un’po’ scadenti ma per me non e un problema. soddisfatto
Great screen, probably would have got it cheaper if I’d waited for a sale. Good value when on sale, OK value otherwise.
Perfect for my Dyspraxic, ADHD brain.
Also great when investigating large timelines.
Note: the Philips utility seems a bit pointless as the fancy zones feature is actually just the Microsoft Powertoys utility, which is official and available for free.
This monitor screen is rather impressive providing a great deal of screen space to work with versions windows side by side. It is my first time using an ultra wide moving from a duel screen setup I have to say it does a great job in providing the space in a flexible way as you can put windows side by side or just extend one and get a wider view which is great. Also the hub in this is truly fantastic as I can plug in everything into the monitor and just use one usb-c cable to my laptop to provide everything. It works seamlessly with my Mac, I believe although expensive it is worth it if you do need additional screen space and a usb-c hub
Likes:
– great amount of screen for the price
– good quality and definitely does not feel cheap or flimsy.
Dislikes:
– could be a brighter
– could perform better for entertainment, screen doesn’t have that amazing “pop”
Il monitor di ottima qualit ad un prezzo che sbaraglia la concorrenza. Unico difetto riscontrato: l’ingresso video non viene sempre riconosciuto se abilitata la ricerca automatica. Basta impostare come ingresso fisso hdmi1 e se occorre cambiare ingresso con il pulsante presente sullo schermo. Comodissima la possibilit di alzare e ruotare lo schermo anche se la base occupa molto spazio ed appesantisce molto. L’imballaggio perfetto e consente un trasporto sicuro anche se un po’ scomodo da trasportare per l’assenza di maniglie sulla confezione
Works flawlessly with my old Mac tower, great resolution, thought the curved screen might be weird but it’s fantastic, especially when using Logic on the Mac. I don’t do gaming so can’t comment on how good it is for that. For me the resolution, colours, build quality and low blue eye safety feature all make this a fantastic buy. Viewing adjustment up/down/angle is very good and the stand is solid. Very pleased.
No soy expertos en monitores de gran formato para gaming, y demas. Pero para mi un monitor como este de 34 pulgadas curvo es una autentica maravilla. Angulos de vision, gran espacio de trabajo. Buena compra!
I’m not buying to play games, but – For me to say is this is a great monitor to use for working from home. USB-C connection great combination charging and picture in one cable for your laptop. And HDMI is an extra bonus connection to your PC or Mac mini. However, small issue with connection usb-c cable (saying: pc not charging?) but it does, just annoying! Overall, 4 stars from me as is great monitor to work.
Bin mit dem Monitor fr den Homeofficebetrieb sehr zufrieden.
Bei mir waren bis auf das USB Kabel alle anderen dabei. Unverstndlich warum Philips das je nach Region unterschiedlich handhabt. Auch wenn das im ersten Moment rgerlich ist, habe ich das nicht mi in die Bewertung (Sterne) einflieen lassen. Manchmal passen die Kabel von der Lnge nicht oder werden gar nicht bentigt und landen dann im Mll. Anders herum wre es aber auch bld, wenn ein zum Betrieb ntiges Kabel fehlte (hier nicht der Fall; Monitor funktioniert auch ohne USB-Kabel)
I have 2 minor niggles and one of them might be MacOS related… sometimes the USB-C hub doesn’t seem to work and the Mac doesn’t recognise the USB devices connected to the monitor. Everything else is fine, just the USB devices. Have to unplug and plug in again for them to work. A minor niggle.
The second is that there is no USB-C out from the monitor. On a MacBook Pro with 4x USB-C ports this isn’t an issue as you can just keep on using the 3 free on the MBP. On a MacBook with 1x USB-C port and various USB-C accessories, this is a nuisance. I can’t have my external HDD plugged in at the same time as the monitor without finding a USB-A -> USB-C converter and plugging it into the monitor. Stupid. There’s no excuse for not having at least one USB-C output.
Overall I like it a lot and wouldn’t give it up now I’ve been using it a few weeks.
Lovely crisp picture. Good solid stand. Excellent volume. Lots of additional settings to fine tune if you choose. Great selection of additional ports. Comes with HDMI & Display Port cables to choose from.
Highly recommended.
Geweldig scherp, groot en multischerm en een mooie aanbieding.
veel beter dan 2 losse schermen met slepen.
Er zit ook nog aardig geluid in maar dat staat bij mij uit ivm soundba
I’m an app developer who often needs three windows open, a coding window, a reference window, and an emulator and this monitor is so impressive I just wish I’d have done it sooner.
I will say, the panel quality isn’t quite as high as my previous Dell, but after an hour or so, I really can’t tell the difference, I’ve gotten used to it, and for the price, it’s well worth it, especially when you combine it with the fact that you can have a one-cable solution into a compatible device thereby bypassing the need for a 200+ Thunderbolt hub.
Camera is awful compared to a 30 Aukey camera, but it is definitely passable.
I managed to pick this up via Amazon Warehhouse deals to save a further ~100, but even at the full price I wouldn’t hesitate
Screen feels sturdy, Plugged into my work laptop and straight away the laptop defaulted to the full resolution(only 60HZ refresh even using display port). i am able to have six windows open at a time. Text is sharp and easy to read.
Thought it would take time to get used to the curve but as i had my two previous monitors slightly angled so it was easy to adjust.
Lastly, the fact that this monitor has height adjustment, swivels and tilts means you can get the perfect viewing position.
Got this to replace my dual monitor set up and boy, am I never going back. Good size and good visual quality! What more could you want?
Otherwise the picture quality is good and has a fantastic contrast ratio. Built in speakers are terrible as it to be expected and to be honest I’d rather monitor manufacturers would just omit them saving cost and space!
I have down sized to it from a full 4K monitor, which proved just too big to work with, and since I ran the 4K at 125% and can run this 3440×1440 at 100% I haven’t lost must screen height.
My one gripe is that it came with incorrect power cables for the UK. It came with a UK plug/C13/kettle lead, but that is not what the monitor uses. It has a small power pack like laptops, and that requires a three circle ‘clover-leaf-connector. That cable was supplied, but with a northern european 2 pin plug.
Amazon has refunded me the cost of a UK to European converter plug which I will use.
Thankfully the outgoing 4K monitor had the required UK/clover-leaf, so at least I was able to power up the monitor until the converter plug arrives!
Un po’ titubante all’inizio sull’acquisto. Ho trovato un’ottima offerta e l’ho preso. Devo dire che ha superato ogni pi rosea aspettativa: ottima la base ruotabile, robusta che permette di regolare l’altezza del monitor. Ottima la qualit dell’immagine e la possibilit di personalizzazione ulteriori. Ottime le prese USB ed anche l’audio non malaccio. Ma il must inaspettato il sensore di prossimit che permette di fare spegnere il monitor automaticamente dopo un minuto dall’allontanamento dal PC. Unico difetto che rimprovererei a Philips: la mancanza di un joystick per scorrere tra le varie opzioni. I tasti sono effettivamente ormai obsoleti oltre che scomodi… Che altro aggiungere? Io sono soddisfattissimo quindi lo consiglio
ich hatte bis jetzt ein 27 und einen 21 Zoll-Monitor mit unterschiedlichen Auflsungen und Qualitten in Gebrauch,
und habe nach einen Monitor gesucht der beide ersetzen sollte, nach langen suchen habe ich mich fr den Phillips entschieden und bin bis jetzt nicht entuscht worden, Arbeitsabstand zum Momitor ca 60cm, arbeiten mit Office, CAD und Foto/Videoprogrammen, gelegentlich kleine Spiele, aber kein richtiger Gamer, nach der richtigen Skalierung bin ich voll zufrieden, schn viel Platz, auch fr mehre Anwendungen gleichzeitig, ich habe mir im Vorfeld eine neue Grafikkarte geghnt mit Displayport um die volle Auflsung nutzen zu knnen, hat sich gelohnt,
zum Schluss sei noch der Bewegungssensor zu erwhnen, der den Monitor abschaltet wenn man nicht davor sitzt, und der Blaulichtfilter, ist ganz angenehm
Excellent picture quality with a a large number of features. The stand is a little large but it’s great to have height adjustment.
Bought it in 2020 to work at home. It is not that curved, just slight curved, but the size and image quality are pretty good. Also the speakers are not that bad (if you want state of the art quality on speakers buy a high end system). If you can get it for a good price (got mine for 299) go for it.
Excellent quality and value for the money. Use these and you will never go back to the old monitors. I can’t do without them. I use mine in a music environment in my home studio brilliant.
Very happy with it. I don’t play computer games so I can’t comment on that. Recommended!
Ich nutze den Monitor fr meinen Broarbeitsplatz und dafr ist er super geeignet. Insbesondere fr groe Tabellen und zur Anzeige von mehreren Fenstern parallel.
Die hohe Auflsung bringt die Texte selbst bei kleinster Schriftgre gestochen scharf. Da lohnt sich der deutlich hhere Preis gegenber von 1920×1080 Pixeln.
Der Monitor ist gleichmige ausgeleuchtet und hat keinen Pixelfehler.
Die integrierten Lautsprecher haben fr mich einen guten, vollen Klang (natrlich gemessen an einem Broarbeitsplatz). Ich kann den Monitor nur empfehlen.
Zur Qualitt fr hochauflsende, schnelle Spiele kann ich nichts sagen.
Great monitor but I did make the mistake of leaving it defaulted to 60hz, which gave me headaches. After changing it to 100hz headaches went away. Overall a really good monito
My biggest gripe is the slight shimmer in the bottom-right corner that remains for a few minutes after you switch on the device. Quite distracting and I’m always thinking I’ll have to return the panel. An additional gripe is the fact that, despite advertised, mine did not come with a USB 3.0 A-male to B-male cable. I just couldn’t be bothered after setting it up so I attached a USB 2.0 A-to-B I had lying around, since the purpose was to connect keyboard, mouse.
All in all it’s the most affordable and quality 3440×1440 monitor on the market.
Mit dem 34er ist das nun alles entspannt, ich bekomme gut 3 DIN A4 Seiten in 100% nebeneinander und so kann ich easy mehrere Fenster nebeneinander aufmachen und behalte trotzdem den berblick. Ich empfinde Arbeiten am 21:9 Curved viel besser als mit zwei kleineren 16:9 Monitoren.
Bild ist einwandfrei, die 3440er Auflsung sollte fr die nchsten paar Jahre langen, zumal ich hauptschlich damit Office Arbeiten erledige.
Bin top zufrieden mit dem Monitor. Ob er fr’s Gamen taugt kann ich nicht sagen. Filme schauen macht aber ziemlich Spa. Ich nutze die eingebauten Lautsprecher allerdings nicht. Da ist mir der Sound doch zu flach. Trotzdem ist der On-Board Sound nice to have. Fr Home Office muss man so nicht das stromfressende Surround-System mitlaufen lassen 😉
Update – much happier with it now, convinced the the resolution / aspect issue is limited to the work macbook only (admin locked down on it which doesn’t help). Bumped it up anther 2 stars. No 5 star as the PBP option are still limited to just a 50/50 split of the screen.
I’m not a gamer so cannot speak to its use for that, or for photography or video editing, but for office use it’s great.
Helpful that it works as a USB C dock too so just one cable allows me to power my work laptop as well as get picture and audio out.
The stand is decent; solid and not to obtrusive. I might buy a monitor arm just for neatness…
Included are a USB C, DisplayPort, and HDMI cables so no need to buy extra bits.
The one major failing is that the monitor comes with a European power plug, not a UK one!
Fortunately I had a suitable adaptor in the house, otherwise I wouldn’t have been able to use the display when it arrived! Not sure if this is a one off or the norm.
