" ... Refresh rate a little low for gaming, but that’s not what I got this screen for, so it’s perfect for what I wanted. ... "
" ... Ok, it's not an ips monitor, but the picture is pretty close to it. ... I really like this big, 2k monitor. ... It's the monitor looking amazing. ... "
" ... The panel is gorgeous, the price is very good for such good quality monitor. ... "
" ... Gaming: Screen is nice and bright with very minimal screen tearing when playing fast paced games (Skyrim, Witcher 3, GTA5). ... The curve in the screen makes gaming even more enjoyable as it almost pulls you into the game. ... "
" ... I was used to a 30" 2560x1600 monitor, so small text and tiny icons aren't new to me, but 4K is a little too much detail for a 27" monitor. ... No slight on the manufacturer, the picture is gorgeous, but I'm forced to squint, move unusually close to the screen, use a lower resolution, or scale my screen - all drawbacks to me. ... Resolved awaken to black screen issue! ... "
" ... This is a great, wonderful, ips display. ... The screen is sharp. ... No dead pixels. ... "
" ... The curved screen looks great and seems to reduce the reflection. ... "
" ... Pretty screen, very bright. ... "

" ... Great second screen for laptop. ... I use it with my 2017 MacBook Pro. ... "
" ... Works great and has PIP for 2 connected devices. ... "
" ... I have the 27" version of this monitor. ... If, like me, what you are looking for is a good sized desktop monitor this is an excellent choice, especially at its price point. ... "
" ... I'm using it with my Macbook Pro. ... "
" ... I can't use anything else but a curved monitor for computer. ... "
" ... Will enjoy having two computers hooked up side-by-side on the same monitor, when I do. ... "
" ... Works great with my ps4 pro ... "
" ... I purchased this monitor to replace my dual 22" monitor setup for my home office. ... "

" ... 1080p at a 27" size, nothing fancy ... "
" ... My older monitor had giant bezels, and was 1080p. ... It is also 4k, which is a huge plus. ... It may be because of the IPS panel, but I can honestly tell a huge difference in the sharpness of the images/videos I see on the monitor. ... To those of you that are new to 4k, make sure to go into your desktop settings and change the gpu resolution setting to 4k to experience the detail, otherwise you'll basically be looking at a 1080p screen. ... "
" ... But no kidding, I am in love with my new 32 inch Philips Curved PC monitor. ... "
" ... I purchased the 27 in curved 1080 HD version and am extremely pleased. ... "
" ... Great Quality for 4K gaming ... "
" ... Work using Display Port, watch 4K streaming content on HDMI. ... I create 4K youtube videos using my GH5 shooting in 10 bit color, so is great to actually be able to see the source footage as its supposed to be seen. ... And as content creator I want matte screen, not glossy as some 4k. ... My 1080p LG monitor lasted 10 years. ... "
" ... I purchased this monitor to replace my older 4k monitor, and when I powered up the unit, I was pleasantly surprised. ... I will be buying another 4k monitor, just not this brand. ... "
" ... One one hand, I could splurge and drop $600 on a USC-C powered 4k monitor (ugh) or go with one of this one that was pretty good reviews and was just 1/3 of the price. ... After fiddling around and downloading a couple of third party display apps from the App Store, I finally got 4k! ... "

" ... While unboxing these, (replacing my single 27" acer because it has no vesa mount) I thought how now these are so inexpensive compared to the last one I bought, but they are not inexpensive, they are CHEAP. ... "
" ... - comes with stand ... "
" ... For those of you who are planning to attach a VESA mount for the monitor arm, those holes on the back are for 75x75mm. ... Most of the VESA mounting bracket comes with 75x75 and 100x100mm ready, but if you look at my picture in the attachment, you will know that the bracket has to stick out. ... "
" ... It mounted to my VESA mount, but it is the smaller mount at 75mm. ... "
" ... I don't care at all about Vesa mount. ... "
" ... The price point is unbeatable and, at least for the version I purchased, there is no issue with an overlapping VESA mount. ... "
" ... Who would design a monitor without a vesa mount (samsung). ... Anyways this phillips has very nice vesa mount. ... "

" ... Massive quality control issues here. ... "
" ... Separately, the menu control and off/on button is on the back of the monitor. ... Its both hard to reach and very inconvenient and difficult to control ... "
" ... Pressing the button turns the screen on and off. ... Toggling the button to the right opens the menu to adjust screen options. ... Toggling the button left/right/up/down navigates the menu, and toggling to the left will eventually close the menu. ... "
" ... My next chief complaint with this monitor is that the power button is NOT where you think it will be (by the LED indicator for power). ... "
" ... Like many other monitors, the knob used to control the OSD is not intuitive at all to use. ... The OSD knob behind the screen is also the power button which you have to long press(3secs) to turn it off when you want to get rid of that 'Cannot find source' or "Check connection" message. ... "
" ... Once you get used to the single button control stick/button, it isn't so bad, but I guess that depends on how often you need to change settings. ... "

" ... I mean, the audio is loud enough without sounding distorted, the visual/picture quality of everything you see is crystal clear, and to top it all, it's curved, so its going to be great for your eyes. ... "
" ... How can you have such a wonderful picture, and then couple it with sound from an AM radio??? ... For those of you with man-buns, floods, and "fun" socks, AM radios only had one speaker and sounded very flat. ... "

" ... I got this for music production, audio engineering work primarily - app work with a 15" macbook pro. ... 4K = too small for apps like Logic, Photoshop, etc ... "
" ... I use mine for software dev, for which it is very good. ... "
" ... I bought two of these several days ago they are very nice monitors, but when I downloaded the software, one option is to register a PIN in case the monitor is ever stolen, once used on a different computer the PIN must be used or else the screen dim's and there is a message moving around the screen saying theft deterrent is enabled. ...
