Philips, by way of MMD, is releasing a new 4K UHD monitor tagged 288E2UAE. While it might not get the most eye soaring features, it does get a good price at 299 EUR/USD.
The new Philips monitor 288E2UAE (28"/71,1 cm) with its 4K resolution, 10-bit IPS (W-LED) panel, USB 3.2 SuperSpeed data transfer and slim, attractive design. Thanks to its 4K resolution and pixel density of 157 ppi, the image is extremely sharp, while 1.07 billion colours, 119% sRGB coverage and a colour accuracy of DeltaE under 2 make images look vivid and natural. Response time is 4 ms (gray to gray), Brightness 300 cd/m² and Contrast ratio 1000:1. Thanks to its 1.07 billion colour capabilities, every colour comes to life and every detail is enhanced. The 28” monitor utilises an IPS panel and SmartContrast technology for rich details even in dark areas, delivering the rewarding visual experience users expect from a Philips monitor. And when tasks are complex, users can rely on MultiView technology to simultaneously connect two devices, such as a PC and a notebook, in Picture-in-Picture or Picture-by-Picture modes.
Fast and easy
For work, entertainment and every other task, users want speed and ease of use. The Philips 288E2UAE features a 4-port USB 3.2 hub, offering one USB upstream and four downstream ports, so users can connect their keyboard and mouse to the monitor. One USB port supports fast charge and meets the USB-IF Battery Charging (BC1.2) standard, allowing users to charge their compatible smartphones. For more options, the monitor also offers HDMI and DisplayPort connectivity. All ports are located on one horizontal line at the back of the monitor, and a cable management system helps maintain a tidy workspace. The EasySelect key, a joystick that allows quick access to the monitor menu, makes life even easier. Every detail is intended to keep the front bezel clean and maintain an orderly desk.
Design and comfort
Philips monitors are known for their elegant design and comfort features, and the Philips 288E2UAE keeps each of these promises. It offers ultra-narrow bezels, a slim design and an elegant stand, making it the ideal choice for design-conscious users, who will also benefit from a large viewing area. The adjustable stand can be tilted (-5/20°) and positioned to the optimal height thanks to its 100 mm height adjustment feature. Easy on the eyes, the Philips 288E2UAE monitor features an anti-glare screen, EasyRead mode for a paper-like reading experience, Flicker-free technology and LowBlue mode for more comfortable viewing.
This Philips monitor also stands out for its sustainability features. Compliant with RoHS standards, it is EnergyStar 8.0 and TCO certified, lead and mercury free, and its packaging is made from 100% recyclable material. The Philips 288E2UAE monitor is available from February with an RRP of £269 which is roughly 300 USD/EUR.
