Pros and cons

According to our monitor expert

Sharp image: you can see graphs and text clearly thanks to the Quad HD resolution.
See bright colors: you can see bright colors, even when you’re sitting at an angle to the screen thanks to the IPS panel.
View comfortably: you can tilt the screen to get a comfortable viewing angle, so you can work comfortably.
No webcam: you'll always need a separate webcam for video calling.
No daisy chaining: you can't connect the monitors to each other with a single cable, so you'll need more cables.

Description

Work with sharp images on the Philips 27B2G5500/00. This monitor has a Quad HD 1440p resolution. That means you see images that are almost 2 times sharper than Full HD. This way, graphs and text stay easy to read when you open multiple windows. The IPS panel provides wide viewing angles and rich colors. As a result, everyone next to you can see the screen clearly. You can tilt the screen for a better viewing angle. This way, you’ll have less trouble with reflections.

Good 27 inch QHD for a nice price

Value for money
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!

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!

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.
