Philips Brilliance 272P7VUBNB 27 " monitor, 4K UHD IPS

A great buy for my purposes. I was about to replace an aging Imac when I accidentally learned about the capabilities of these "new" monitors with USB-C inputs. No doubt I'm pretty out of date with my technical knowledge, but by simply connecting my much newer Macbook via the USB-C cable (included!) and adding a third-party Bluetooth keyboard ($50) and mouse ($30), bingo a fully functional desktop system! A single USB-C cable not only powers the monitor (with the MacBook closed) but also charges the laptop AND allows it to connect regular USB peripherals (I have an external hard drive for backup and a scanner) via the hub's built-in ones operate monitors. WITCHCRAFT! The sharpest, brightest and crispest screen I've ever had. There are a number of other cables, as well as a very thick USB-C. When it comes to downloads, my entire computing life is focused on one device. I honestly don't understand why anyone wouldn't want to save a ton of money or more and use this setup instead of buying an Imac. For newbies like me, I just want to point out that the speaker doesn't have speakers, so you'll need headphones or an external one to connect. Fantastic product from Philips.

Pros
  • monitors
Cons
  • The monitor stand is too wobbly.
