While I’m sure many of you love a feature-rich gaming monitor, it’s not what everyone needs. If you’re looking for features that help with working from home, in the office, and to improve your productivity, then the Philips Business Series of monitors is a prime choice.
The Philips 34″ 6000 Series 34B2U6603CH monitor is a feature-rich ultrawide display designed to enhance both productivity and immersive experiences. Utilising a VA LCD panel with a 1500R curvature, it delivers a wide 178-degree viewing angle and a high 4000:1 contrast ratio, enhanced by SmartContrast for dynamic image adjustments. The monitor boasts CrystalClear UltraWide QHD resolution (3440 x 1440 pixels) at a refresh rate of up to 120 Hz via DisplayPort 1.4 or Thunderbolt 4, ensuring sharp and fluid visuals. Its colour accuracy is notable, covering 120% of the sRGB and 101% of the NTSC colour gamuts with a Delta E of less than 2 for sRGB, and it supports VESA DisplayHDR 400 for more lifelike visuals with deeper blacks and brighter highlights.
Beyond its impressive display capabilities, this Philips monitor integrates several features aimed at modern work and collaboration. A built-in 5 MP webcam with a noise-cancelling microphone and dual 5W speakers makes it ideal for video conferencing, further enhanced by an adjustable webcam and an auto-framing function to keep participants centred. The inclusion of SmartKVM allows for seamless switching between multiple connected devices with a simple keyboard shortcut. For user convenience, it features an earphone hook for tidy storage and a Busylight to indicate work status, which can even sync with Microsoft Teams. The monitor also prioritises eye comfort with SoftBlue technology, flicker-free operation, and an EasyRead mode.
Connectivity is a strong suit, featuring a Thunderbolt 4 port that offers lightning-fast data transfer, up to 100W power delivery, and multi-stream transport for daisy-chaining displays. Additional ports include HDMI and DisplayPort. The monitor also incorporates Philips’ PowerSensor 2, which intelligently detects user presence to optimise energy efficiency. Its ergonomic design is complemented by a graphene thermal pad for cooling and support for VESA mounting. This Philips monitor is well-suited for professionals needing a large, high-resolution display for multitasking, content creators requiring colour accuracy, and anyone seeking an immersive viewing experience for media and gaming.
