Less eye fatigue with 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

LowBlue Mode for easy-on-the-eyes productivity

Studies have shown that just as ultra-violet rays can cause eye damage, shortwave-length blue light rays from LED displays can cause eye damage and affect vision over time. Developed for wellbeing, the Philips LowBlue Mode setting uses a smart software technology to reduce harmful shortwave blue light.

Cable management reduces cable clutter for a neat workspace

Cable management is an intimate design that maintains a tidy workspace by organising the cables and wires required for the operation of a display device.

SmartContrast for rich black details

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.

    Iniziamo a dire che il fatto che abbia tutti e quattro i bordi sottili fa un sacco differenza. Uno dei pochissimi, l’unico a questo prezzo.

    Iniziamo con la risoluzione QHD da 2560×1440. Le immagini su questo schermo LED IPS sono nitide e dettagliate. I colori sono vividi e ben equilibrati, offrendo un’esperienza visiva davvero coinvolgente. La dimensione da 27 pollici offre ampio spazio per l’immersione nei giochi senza risultare ingombrante sulla scrivania. Ha un buon angolo di visione e colori ben tarati di default per chi si occupa di photo editing.

    La capacit di refresh di 75Hz un grande vantaggio per i giochi. Anche se non raggiunge la velocit dei monitor gaming ultra high-end, ho notato un miglioramento significativo nella fluidit rispetto ai miei vecchi monitor da 60Hz. L’aggiunta del supporto AMD FreeSync ha fatto s che i miei giochi scorressero senza alcun tearing o stuttering, garantendo un’esperienza di gioco ancora pi godibile. Insomma, la differenza dai 60Hz si vede. Questo monitor reattivo, ed un elemento essenziale per giochi competitivi. Non ho riscontrato alcun ghosting o sfocatura durante le sessioni di gioco.

    La costruzione del monitor solida ed elegante, con una cornice sottile che massimizza l’area di visualizzazione. Le opzioni di regolazione dell’inclinazione offrono una flessibilit sufficiente per trovare l’angolazione perfetta.

    L’audio non il punto forte di questo monitor, ma non una sorpresa considerando le sue dimensioni o il fatto che dai monitor non ci si aspetta nulla su questo campo.

    Il Philips 275E2FAE un ottimo monitor gaming per chi desidera una buona qualit dell’immagine, una risoluzione superiore e una reattivit soddisfacente senza dover spendere una fortuna. un investimento solido per gli appassionati di videogiochi che cercano un miglioramento significativo

    Se volte passare alla definizione in 4K senza spendere cifre alte: questo monitor la soluzione. Definito, ottima profondit di colore (lo uso con Photoshop) non troppo affaticante. Lasciate perdere l’audio (davvero pessimo) Ma il lavoro per cui stato progettato lo fa decisamente bene. Molto soddisfatto dell’acquisto.
    Un punto dolente, questa volta, la logistica di Amazon. Avevo chiesto che fosse imballato con una scatola anonima: ma niente arrivato con la sua dove il contenuto era chiaramente indicato, inoltre senza l’ulteriore protezione la scatola stata rotta sottraendo un cavetto (il DP) Gli addetti di amazon, mi hanno proposto una soluzione adeguata al disagio provocato: Sempre gentili e comprensivi.

    Da ich den 24Zoller von Philips (rechts, 246E) vor einigen Jahren gekauft habe und wirklich sehr zufrieden war, habe ich mich beim 27er fr dieses Modell entschieden und es heute endlich auspacken drfen. Hatte davor einen von Samsung und muss sagen, dass die Samsung Monitore einfach nicht so ganz mein Fall sind, das Bild und die knalligen Farben sind bei Philips einfach besonders gut.

    Die Bilder zeigen es eigentlich schon, man merkt, dass die Auflsung schrfer ist und es arbeitet und spielt sich damit noch angenehmer (75 vs 60hrz).

    Der Ton…. actually, tatschlich okay. Wenn man mal schnell Ton braucht, absolut machbar. Klanglich hat es sich zum 246E verbessert.

    Die Helligkeit und der Kontrast sind ebenfalls slightly besser, mit der richtigen Kalibrierung knallen die Farben auch richtig. Dafr habe ich die AMD Radeon Software genutzt und ebenfalls auch Einstellungen am Monitor direkt gemacht (unter dem Profil FPS).

    Zum Versand, was das einzig rgerliche war: Amazon hat bei der Bestellung an einem Dienstag das Lieferdatum Donnerstag angegeben, geliefert wurde es jedoch aufgrund Sperrgut erst Samstag. Also unbedingt beachten, dass das auch passieren kann. Erspart sehr viel rger, wenn man sich darauf einstellen kann, dass die Angabe des Tages nicht ganz stimmt.

    Aber trotzdem, 5/5. Bin top zufrieden und kann den Monitor nur wrmstens empfehlen.

    Gestochen scharfes Bild und perfekte Farbwiedergabe

    Bel monitor con buona risoluzione e caratteristiche interessanti . C’ da giocare con le regolazioni. Queste ultime un po’ macchinose ma nel complesso un eccellente monitor in relazione al costo. Volendo fare un esempio, un eccellente rapporto qualit prezzo. Non sar un fuori serie ma decisamente un ottimo monitor utile un po’ a tutte le applicazioni a livello amatoriale . Per chi elabora foto e video in maniera professionale dovr scegliere altro

    Great picture quality for editing pictures and videos. Work great with Mac mini. Super happy with the value for the price. There is no any other option like this price. we might even get another one as a tv.

    I recently decided to upgrade my monitor and initially purchased the Philips 275E1S, which boasts a brightness level of 250 nits. Unfortunately, I found myself rather disappointed with the product, as the brightness just wasn’t up to my expectations.

    Determined to find a better alternative, I returned the Philips 275E1S and opted for a different monitor instead. I am thrilled to report that this new monitor, with its impressive 350 nits of brightness, is a significant improvement over its predecessor.

    Not only does the enhanced brightness make for a more vibrant and enjoyable viewing experience, but it also contributes to reduced eye strain during extended use. Overall, I am much more satisfied with my second choice and would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a monitor with superior brightness.

    I am very happy with this Monitor, it is wide (I can have a Spreadsheet and a Document visible side-by-side at the same time) and legible.

    I can’t really comment on the speakers, they certainly aren’t HiFi but they seem perfectly adequate.

    As it happens, despite the stand being perfectly adequate, I bought a separate arm (Amazon Basics Single Monitor Stand) which allows me to angle and pivot the screen (handy for long winded, boring documents); this arm is not as steady as I would have liked but it suffices.

    I purchased this as a birthday gift to my husband. He was using a smaller monitor and finding it difficult to read from. The quality of the sound and picture is outstanding and, for the price, a very good buy.

    This screen is amazing, the value for money is incredible, doesn’t have reflections almost and has an enormous definition and wide range of colors. This is the best screen I’ve bought until now.

    Purchased for my gaming setup and it looks amazing. Nice crisp, clear and bright picture that makes the image on screen pop. Seriously would recommend.

    I use this for editing digital photographs. The quality of the screen, the brightness, all are very good and I’m very pleased with it. The sound quality is rather poor, but makes no difference to my application. However, if you’re thinking of using the screen for gaming, you may be disappointed.

  12. FrancesWhitney says:

    I’m an electronics cheapskate, but with my recent interest in graphics I was really feeling the constraints of the hardware I had. Time for an upgrade.

    I guess I’m behind the times here, but I was pleasantly surprised at how far my money would go. Bigger, better and higher quality than I’m used to, with a brand that I trust.

    The weakest point is the speakers. Treat them as an emergency backup, not a useful product feature.

    Perhaps the most interesting feature is MultiView, but I haven’t got around to testing that.

    Golden Review Award: 2 From Our UsersBit unsure of whether to get due to the price for 4k but it’s was definitely worth it, quite hefty and works very well for my usage (gaming mostly), 28 inches feels a lot more than 4 inches compared to 24inches too. Great value for its price

    Decent picture quality. The controls are bit fiddly. Slow to switch on. Plastic feels bit tacky in places . Try to get the one with height adjustment. Guess there is little point in making the fixed base for this type of monitors

    Golden Review Award: 2 From Our UsersDipende tutto dalle aspettative. Non un monito di qualit professionale, ma per il lavoro quotidiano restituisce ampia gamma cromatica e definizione.
    Il comparto audio al limite: sufficiente per una videochiamata, per il resto non fateci affidamento. Elegante nelle finiture, non uso la base in dotazione, ma in questa fascia di prezzo consiglio l’acquisto di un braccio vesa regolabile ( soprattutto se si passa molto tempo alla postazione, in modo da impostare l’altezza pi ergonomica possibile, allineando il bordo superiore agli occhi). Il pannello riflette leggermente, meglio una postazione lontana dalla luce diretta.
    Nel complesso per 250- 270 euro lo consiglio, essendo l’unico da 28 pollici in 4k (ed un pollice in pi fa comodo). Certo se avete esigenze professionali su resa cromatica la spesa deve essere ben oltre il doppio. Ideale per chi cerca definizione e buona resa cromatica senza spendere una esagerazione. Per il 4k a 60 hz consiglio di utilizzare un adattatore displayport.

    Golden Review Award: 3 From Our UsersE’ un monitor con un ottimo pannello, resa naturale e qualit molto alta, quindi un rapporto qualit prezzo molto favorevole. Il design molto minimal, con una cornice molto piccola, cosa come personalmente apprezzo molto. Ottimi anche i men e il “joystick” tutto fare che rende le impostazioni molto pratiche. Io l’ho scelto per la post produzione fotografica, arrivavo da un ottimo monitor 24″ semipro e avevo molto timore di cambiare. Come tutti i monitor 4K va abbinato a un pc in grado di gestire quelle risoluzioni senza problemi (per il gaming dove contano gli fps io non sceglierei un 4K). Metto una stella in meno per la mancanza della regolazione in altezza quando si usa la base, ma soprattutto per la posizione dell’attacco VESA che si trova alla base e non al centro, dove normalmente . Questo mi ha impedito di usare l’attacco a muro che gi avevo.

    Golden Review Award: 3 From Our UsersAmazing picture, bright crisp and gorgeous. As you can see in the photo, the Philips screen is as bright and crisp as the 2020 M1 MacBook Air Retina screen. Very impressive indeed!

    Built in speakers are extremely poor though. I bought the monitor for the picture quality, so I am extremely pleased with it. I use external speakers so the internal speakers will never get used anyway

    Fantastic Monitor for picture and video

    Recently bought a this monitor for my Xbox Series X so that I could get the benefit of crisp 4K. I wasn’t disappointed. The monitor obviously doesn’t run 120hz but will look for an upgrade once more games support a higher FPS. For now it’s brilliant!

    Great monitor, runs a little on the dark side but nothing too bad.

    It has speakers but as everyone else says they are pathetic, in fact they are beyond pathetic, inbuilt laptop speakers are miles better, but if you need sound do yourself a favour and get an external speaker for the job – good example is the small portable Bluetooth speakers by Anke

    Golden Review Award: 3 From Our UsersGood 4k display, enough for usual work from home activity.

    Unfortunately my arrived with dead pixel, as you can see in images in black circle. It’s a bit annoying when you work in programs with dark theme, which they are most of them now.

    Would definitely not recommend this display, I think in this decade of this century, there shouldn’t be any dead pixel present.

    I think this is a very good monitor, in fact I have bought a second one to replace a perfectly good one that I have had for two years.

    I used them on their stands at first and the stand is nice and solid, I now have them on a duel monitor stand as I needed greater movement due to my desk layout, so I can say that the Vesa mounting point is sturdy and easy to use/

    Great resolution & picture quality but even if speakers are stronger (3W) compare to other built in once they don’t produce enough sound on 100% volume so not for watching TV much which was my 2nd purpose of purchase after being a working monitor.

    Golden Review Award: 4 From Our UsersHo acquistato questo monitor da circa 20 giorni. In passato ho avuto una pessima esperienza con il marchio philips , questo mi ha spinto a fare direttamente la polizza assicurativa amazon nella eventualit che il monitor si dovesse rompere il giorno dopo dello scadere della garanzia. Devo dire che per adesso sono soddisfatto. Non vi aspettate una qualit di immagine eccezionale, aspettatevi una qualit di immagine buona. Nel mio pannello non ci sono difetti, ne pixel rotti, ne macchie bianche. Come hanno recensito altri acquirenti, molto, molto, luminoso, ma basta regolarlo. Quello che apprezzo che rispetto al mio vecchio hp e ad un samsung 27 pollici che ho acquistato qualche mese fa, questo non stanca gli occhi. La visione piacevole. I video a 4 k sono veramente belli, per intenderci come le demo che si vedono sui televisori nei centri commerciali. Insomma promosso a pieni voti se non fosse per l’audio che in pratica non c’, in quanto stridulo e basso di volume. La base robusta e consente l’inclinazione. Lo consiglio.

    Golden Review Award: 19 From Our UsersIch habe mich riesig auf den neuen Monitor gefreut. Endlich entspannteres Arbeiten mit zwei Fenstern nebeneinander, das wre wirklich schn. Als ich ihn anschloss, kam die Ernchterung. Zunchst waren alle Schriften zu klein, das lie sich aber ber die Anzeigeeinstellungen (unter Win 10: Rechtsklick auf den Desktop > Anzeigeeinstellungen > Skalierung und Anordung > Erweiterte Skalierungseinstellungen >Benutzerdefinierte Skalierung: 175) schnell beheben.

    Dann kam jedoch das viel schlimmere Problem: Alle Buchstaben hatten einen leichten bunten Schatten, was in manchen Programmen gar nicht, in Excel aber z. B. extrem auffiel. Besonders roter Text sah ganz grauenhaft aus, als htte er eine dnne, schwarze Umrandung. Also habe ich unter eizo.de einen Monitortest gemacht und keinen Fehler gefunden. Auch die Installation des neuesten Treibers von philips.com brachte keine Abhilfe. Nach stundenlangem Suchen habe ich dann in einem englischen Forum den entscheidenen Hinweis gefunden:

    Wer wie ich eine Nvidia-Grafikkarte nutzt, muss mit dem Rechtsklick auf den Desktop klicken, die Nvidia-Systemsteuerung auswhlen, dort den Punkt “Auflsung ndern” whlen und unter Punkt 3 das “Ausgabe-Farbformat” ndern. Lsst es sich nicht ndern, muss erst oben in der Liste “PC – 3840 x 2160” ausgewhlt und evtl. zwischendurch (und hinterher noch mal) “bernehmen” geklickt werden. Whlt man dann unter “Ausgabe-Farbformat” ein anderes Format, z. B. das in meinem Screenshot zu sehende, wird Rot endlich wieder leuchtend rot dargestellt!

    Ich war wirklich kurz davor, den Monitor zurckzuschicken, weil es so schlimm aussah, aber jetzt ist der Monitor super! 🙂

    Einziges Manko: Die VESA-Halterung ist leider nicht vertikal zentriert wie bei vielen anderen Monitoren, sondern unten. Wer also einen alten Monitor gegen diesen hier austauschen will, wird sich wundern, dass er pltzlich viel hher hngt.

    So stellt man die Farben richtig ei

    Overall I’m very happy with the screen. Arrived in one piece. Easy to assemble on stand. No missing pixels, worked first time and reasonably easy to set up: vol, brightness etc.
    As others have said – the sound is atrocious and tinny, but easy to circumnavigate if you have an existing sound system.
    I did find the screen rather bright and have reduced brightness and contrast right down. It’s fine now.

    Golden Review Award: 8 From Our UsersThis monitor is excellent, whilst the bezel is quite small, there is a 4mm inch area on the sides/top which is “black” and no image is displayed. In comparison with other monitors, given the price, and overall dimensions, it did not bother me at all.
    The speakers are small, and therefore barely better than the ones on a laptop, again, enough to watch a YouTube video, etc. Also, take into consideration that the overall thickness of the monitor is.
    The PIP / input split is a feature which I could not master(but not really tried too much), It seems that only works with ONE HDMI and ONE Display port, it does not support using each “picture” from a different HDMI source. (But again, could be something I’m doing wrong, as don’t really use that feature, I consider it irrelevant)

    Overall, I replaced a a 15 year old 24 in Dell, with this monitor, and it sits on my desk further back, it’s barely larger(while the screen is huge, and much better quality)

    It does what it says on the tin, excellent value for money!

    Golden Review Award: 12 From Our UsersIl monitor molto bello esteticamente, soprattutto per il fatto che abbia tutti i bordi simmetrici e sottili. I bordi, di per s, non sono sottilissimi (che chi fa meglio) ma questo monitor tra i pochi che ha il bordo inferiore uguale agli altri.
    La qualit dell’immagine mi sembra ottima, i contrasti molto buoni e i testi ben definiti. L’unico problema il classico backlight bleed degli IPS che, nel mio caso, abbastanza accentuato nel bordo destro, nella parte inferiore. Ho cercato di fare una foto il pi possibile relistica perch le foto accentuano il problema. fastidioso mentre si guardano film a luci spente con scene buie. Di giorno, l’effetto quasi impercettibile. Ottima la risoluzione QHD, l’ideale, secondo me, su un 27″ da ufficio che permette di tenere gli elementi grafici del sistema operativo molto piccoli senza perdere definizione, aumentando quindi lo spazio disponibile per lavorare.
    molto veloce a riprendere dallo standby, ma il pad di gestione del monitor abbastanza scomodo, in particolare per spegnere il monitor dove bisogna tenere premuto al centro e non sempre prende il comando giusto.

    Molto bello esteticamente, qualità dell'immagine buona

Overall am really happy with this purchase.

    Bought as an extra monitor whilst working from home, needed something that had more accurate colour than my Samsung monitor. And in that regard it does the job, very nice design and the stand is great. However I literally had to destroy the packaging to actually get to the monitor – possibly the worst piece of packaging I’ve seen in years.

    Golden Review Award: 4 From Our UsersI bought this for 199 in the Black Friday sale to replace a Dell U2715H as my primary desktop monitor. I’m very happy as it performs similarly but with much higher resolution. VESA 100×100 mount, good uniformity of brightness, faithful colours, easy enough to control with the jog dial on the back (I prefer it to capacitive buttons). Note I do not use the speakers, which seem to be universally slated, and I do not use it for gaming.
