Review is 10 out of 10.

Very good monitor with good options for little money.

4K high resolution
Price is (quite) low
Multiple HDMI 2.0 connections (2 x)
Price increased due to Corona crisis (more home workers)

I had been looking for an affordable monitor with 4K for a long time. Unfortunately, prices everywhere went up due to the corona crisis. But because my wife and I both have to work from home, we still needed an extra monitor and so we bought it.

The short installation manual was good and the extensive manual was also clear. When securing the foot, make sure that you put it on properly.

Connecting to the PC is no problem at all and Windows 10 immediately recognizes the large 4K monitor. Separate drivers for the monitor are available from Philips, for better adjustment, but they are not necessary. The extra software that you can download from Philips does not add much to the use if you have Windows 10. For older versions of Windows, it may be possible. be useful. The great thing about this monitor is that there are 2 x HDMI2 connections available. Most other monitors in this price range only have 1 HDMI connection and we needed 2. It also contains stereo speakers, which can be set via the OSD settings (sound on/off/louder/softer) or can even be set directly via the buttons at the bottom edge of the screen.

For 'normal' use we set the Windows screen settings to 150%, making the letters and icons larger, because at 100% it is all very small. For games this is not necessary (just like with Adobe Lightroom) and with old games (legacy) it can even lead to problems. You can solve this by pressing the 'High DPI settings' button on the icon/program properties under Compatibility. On the next screen you can then check "Ignore high DPI scaling". After that, the game will start in the correct mode.

For photo editing (in our case with Adobe Lightroom) this monitor is really very good. You can literally see a lot more, both in numbers of small photos (Grid view) and the large photos themselves (Enhanced view or Loupe image).

NOTE: If you are considering this monitor, make sure that your PC/Laptop can handle high resolutions and that you have the correct connection for it. Only HDMI2 or DisplayPort1.2 are suitable for these high resolutions on this screen and if your PC/Laptop can only handle HDMI1.x it will not work.

Besides the power cable, a Displayport cable, HDMI cable and sound cable are also included. TIP: If you now have a monitor, replace the power cable with the new cable that came with this monitor. This one stays in place better than the old one (in our case).

Very very nice good value for money

Curved is good for games
The on-screen menu is really easy and works fast
I'm not lucky to take the whole stand off

Very nice screen, ideal for 1080P games on playstation for example!
