Review on Upgrade Your Display with Philips 278E1A Frameless Monitor: 4K Resolution, Flicker-Free, Built-In Speakers, Blue Light Filter, HDMI Connectivity, LED Flat Screen by Ian Kedzior

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Great replacement/upgrade.

.for my 22" FHD monitor. I bought the 278E1A 27" 4K version (with speakers); and I didn't have to/wouldn't want to make any adjustments to the original state. The lack of reflection is okay (as is the 22-inch ViewSonic monitor it replaced). The brightness is perfect (the lighting in my room ranges from bright to very dark). Resolution is better than my aging/problematic macular eyes would appreciate. And it has speakers which will allow me to rid my desktop of two slightly better speakers (I only need/want speakers for a couple of Zoom meetings I attend, plus for a picture-in-picture TV show if better not to turn around and watch the news on "real" TV). Speakers from this review.) My computer + monitor draws about 51 watts on my UPS (as it is at the time of writing this review) - which tells me the monitor is drawing about 20 watts - - which is the same as 22-inch ViewSonic that he replaced. Now that it's on my desk, it's not as "huge" as I expected - which means I can support an extra 5 inches diagonally. than this one - although this one meets my need for readability (I set it to 200% (Windows setting "Display"), otherwise the font is too small for me to read after replacing the FHD display with a 4K Display Replaced Display.This Display Meets My Hot ButtonsModest PriceSmall BaseAnti-Reflective Coating4K ResolutionSpeakersHDMI and DisplayPort InputsISP Display (Wide)*****20210705
