Description

The Philips 279C9 is a 27-inch monitor for the creative multitasker. Thanks to the 4K resolution, all of your photos, videos, and designs will be razor-sharp. But this screen isn't just sharp. It's also nice and wide, with a diameter of 69cm. This allows you to comfortably work in two windows at the same time. The Philips 279C9 has an integrated USB-C dock. Connect your laptop to this dock to transfer both image and power with one cable. This way, you won't get tangled up in cables. The DisplayHDR 400 ensures a high brightness, a high contract ratio, and a colorful display. Thanks to the 10-Bit, the 279C9 can reproduce more than 1 billion color tones. The IPS panel shows these colors true to nature, no matter from what angle.

Nice design, but mediocre in image and functionality.

  • Very thin edges (the 'chin' is almost as small as the side edges)
  • Foot adjustable in height and is also rotatable
  • Not sharp enough

Top monitor, good color reproduction, sharp image quality.

  • Beautiful design (RedDot winner)
  • 4k resolution
  • Beautiful color rendering (blue filter is optional)
  • There are cheaper alternatives (but then you compromise on design)

Beautiful display, both in terms of image and design. Even when it's off, it's a gem on your desk.
The image itself (the most important thing for a screen) is beautifully clear and can be adjusted to your liking. The color fastness is good, especially because the blue filter can be turned off. This mode works well if your eyes get a little tired towards the end of the day. You can of course also use it all day, but then your colors will be a bit faded (inherent in this way of displaying the image).
The monitor is easy to connect; all necessary cables are included in the box (HDMI, Displayport). Charging a laptop via a USB-C cable is also easy. The cable clip on the back of the monitor makes it easy to hide the cables out of sight, to make the whole thing even tighter. Finally, the screen has good ergonomic adjustment options (pivot, tilt and high/low).
One thing I wasn't too happy with was the operation of the screen itself. Everything is done via a single lever, which results in a bit of fiddling. Since you probably only use this 1x long (calibration start) and occasionally short (changing signal), this is not such a big disadvantage.
If you really want to buy a 4k display as cheaply as possible, there are cheaper options; for around 300E you have a good one. If you add adjustability to that for office or long-term use, the cheapest options are soon towards the 400E. However, for a slight extra cost you can buy this screen, with its refined design.
In my opinion a must!
