Review on Philips 288E2E Frameless Adjustable Computer Monitor - 3840X2160P, Blue Light Filter, Built-In Speakers, Flicker-Free, Height Adjustment, Flat Screen by Jared Islam

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Great performance monitors, except for the slow wake up and poor button placement.

I bought three for a three monitor setup and I really like these monitors. They are light in color and appear to be of very good color. However, this is a big upgrade from what I've been using so I don't know how they will be for hardcore gamers etc. Easy to assemble and I love the height adjustment. I don't like the settings buttons being on the back - they're very hard to reach when you have monitors side by side. I also wish it had a DVI/VGA connector in case I need backwards compatibility with older systems. The only other issue is that they take a long time to wake up from sleep/sleep/another mode, which is annoying when your computer usage changes throughout the day and you need a few seconds each time you resume have to wait. There is also another stupid bug in Windows 10 that, due to the display port in multi-monitor mode, windows are moved to a monitor without a display port every time the system is restarted. But that's not Philips' fault. I also contacted their support team about my question and they eventually responded. Not fast, but satisfying. Overall I'm glad I have them, especially at the retail price I bought them for.
