Pros and cons

According to our monitor expert

Work with sharp images thanks to the Quad HD resolution.
The IPS panel shows bright colors even when you’re viewing it from an angle.
The swiveling display lets you create a comfortable viewing angle and easily show your work to colleagues.
Because the monitor doesn’t have a built-in webcam, you’ll need a separate one if you want to make video calls.
The monitor isn’t suitable for daisy chaining, so you’ll need more cables if you want to connect multiple monitors.

Description

With the Philips 27B2G5500/00, you can work clearly and keep an overview while handling multiple tasks at once. This monitor displays images almost twice as sharp as Full HD thanks to the Quad HD resolution. This way, graphs and text stay easy to read when you open different windows side by side. The IPS panel shows colors vividly and offers wide viewing angles, so you can easily share your screen with colleagues. The swiveling stand lets you quickly turn the screen toward others, which is useful when you’re working together. The built-in speakers let you listen to music or podcasts without needing separate speakers or headphones.

Value for money

Have used the monitor several times now in different situations (Work, gaming, photo editing, watching videos, ...) and every time it does what it's supposed to do. Sound is ok but not as bad as described!

Good 27 inch QHD for a nice price

Menu can only be operated with on/off button

Good 27 inch screen with QHD for a good price. Use the screen with a monitor arm and the VESA connection fits perfectly. The thin bezels are a big plus for me, but few other monitors have this. This screen is definitely recommended!

The ideal homeworking solution!

Excellent image quality
You plug in your PC via 1 USB-C cable and your screen, keyboard, mouse and any other peripherals are connected. Super handy!
The laptop also charges smoothly via the USB-C cable, the laptop power adapter can be permanently stored in the laptop bag for transport.
Built-in microphone and speaker are not great, but can easily be remedied by connecting external speakers/mic to the screen docking.

With 1 USB-C cable you can connect the screen, keyboard, mouse and other peripherals and charge your laptop without any problems. The large screen is perfect for graphic office work. Just played a number of ultra hd videos via youtube and the image quality is fine. Everything plug and play and easy to install.
