many good things for me

If you can buy this monitor for the price I bought it ($80) then you should buy it now. There's some backlight bleeding and contrast isn't that great, but it comes with freesync and 75Hz on an ips panel. More than you can ask for at just $80.

too cheap the best in my rating

Don't get me wrong this monitor is good but usually other monitors have little weight when lifted but this monitor is as light as foam. it seems cheap and I'm pretty sure it's made of plastic and only plastic. Can I recommend it? not for games. for office work yes. It may be cheap quality but it works well.

Great monitor for the money

This monitor is great for the money. It has thin bezels and excellent picture quality. I bought this as a second monitor for my 27" Acer monitor and it's great and you can't beat the price.

Great monitor! Feel free to buy!

Great monitor to complement my laptop! It's much better to work on that beautiful big screen with no bezels than my tiny laptop screen!

Good, but. the best in my rating

Great monitor! I love quality! The only problem is that the plastic stand on the back moves and clicks a lot. That worries me. And the bottom frame is massive.

Not for standing, only for standing on a table

The only drawback is that it is not compatible with the Vesa mount, the cables run too narrow and interfere with the mount. Let's see how long they keep quite good quality.

Good. Until the last o. 44 days.

Bought August 30th, now it's November 13th, I turn it off (yes I timed it) every two and a half minutes. So it worked fine for those 44 days. It's all plastic, but it looks decent. it was probably for. Ouch. 2-6 hours daily. So that's a maximum of 264 hours of total screen time. although I never turned it off because it fell asleep. I don't know if I just got a dud. but somehow it sucks.

Ideal as a second monitor or main monitor

Bought as a second monitor, works perfectly. It can also be used as the primary monitor and works flawlessly. I vaguely remember.

There are no built-in speakers!

Very good budget FreeSync monitor. ALTHOUGH there are no built-in speakers, be prepared to find another sound source. There is an audio jack for speakers on the back of the monitor should you need one.

Great monitors for office work!

Everything is fine with monitors, except for 3 problems. 1) DVI cable not included. 2) Package does not include 3.5 audio cable as advertised. 3) Does not work with standard monitor stands; However, I got it to work by using pliers to bend the metal parts of the monitor stand.

too much trouble

On a dual monitor setup, one came out about 6 months later with an HDMI port. They sent a replacement before the announced return. However, the replacement has a yellow cast. I spend over 10 hours a day in front of these things and it's really annoying. The mount also won't work if you have tabs for a 100mm Vesa mount and want to use the HDMI port. Nice monitor but I wouldn't do it. But again. Update: The HDMI port on the other monitor has failed. HDMI connections are very weak, do not buy this

I wish they were better

I had no idea Philips made computer monitors, so I took a chance. I loved the design, it felt sleek and modern which was light years away from the Dell monitors I've owned since the early 2000s. I wish I had read more reviews. The main problem I had was that the desktop VESA mount was a standard size. I didn't realize it was a problem until I bought 2 of these. When they arrived I opened one and knew immediately they wouldn't work. I almost never give back. On the stand, the monitor seemed…

This monitor was a diamond in the rough.

This monitor is perfect. Worth every penny. It was a double purchase meaning we bought it for our sons play facility and for virtual learning and it serves both needs pretty well. I genuinely think this was a steal for the price and quality at less than $100.

great side monitor in my review

great to have on hand. (the right one) but personally I wouldn't use it as the primary monitor. If you like gaming, get a bigger screen! I went with the 27 inch Viotek, it's affordable and I'd get either to top it off like I did. Especially when you are gaming you need two so you can see other notifications and not exit game mode.

Terrible perspectives

Noticeable color shift if you're not looking from a dead center. This is normal for a computer monitor, but not for a security camera monitor.
