The Philips 28-Inch 4K Ultra HD Display (http://tinyurl.com/mrlra6p) delivers four times as much detail as 1080p Full HD. The monitor normally costs US$799, but was available at Amazon.com for a special price of $599 when we wrote this.

The Philips UltraClear Display combines 4K UHD high resolution with a color depth of 1.07 billion colors. Whether you require extremely detailed information for CAD-CAM solutions, use 3D graphic applications, or are a gamer looking for the next best thing, this Philips display will provide UltraClear 3840×2160 pixel images at 60hz and a 1ms response time. The 28-inch monitor is also ideal for those seeking superb onscreen clarity and color accuracy for personal applications, and includes built-in stereo speakers for multimedia, and MHL technology for mobile device connectivity (though iOS devices currently don’t support this technology).

The Philips UltraClear Display provides several connectivity options and comes equipped with HDMI, DisplayPort, Dual-link DVI and VGA SmartConnect ports. The display also features MultiView functionality. This technology enables active dual connect and view so that users can work with multiple devices like a desktop and laptop side-by-side simultaneously, making complex multi-tasking work a breeze.

Another people-friendly feature is the advanced SmartErgoBase, which allows the monitor to be lowered down almost to desk level for a comfortable viewing angle. Low bezel-to-table height is a nice solution for those who use bifocals, trifocals or progressive lens glasses for computing work.

Additionally, the adjustable base allows for users of greatly different heights to use the monitor in their preferred angle and height settings, helping them reduce fatigue and strain. The SmartErgoBase’s height, swivel, tilt and rotation angle adjustments position the monitor for maximum comfort, while its cable management function reduces cable clutter and keeps the workspace neat and professional.
