Effortlessly smooth gameplay with AMD FreeSync technology Gaming shouldn’t be a choice between choppy game play or broken frames. With the new Philips monitor it doesn’t have to be. Get fluid, artefact-free performance at virtually any frame rate with AMD FreeSync technology, smooth, quick refresh and ultra-fast response time. Less eye fatigue with Flicker-Free technology Due to the way brightness is controlled on LED-back lit screens, some users experience flicker on their screen which causes eye fatigue. Philips Flicker-Free technology applies a new solution to regulate brightness and reduce flicker for more comfortable viewing. LowBlue Mode for easy-on-the-eyes productivity Studies have shown that just as ultra-violet rays can cause eye damage, shortwave-length blue light rays from LED displays can cause eye damage and affect vision over time. Developed for well being, the Philips LowBlue Mode setting uses a smart software technology to reduce harmful shortwave blue light. SmartImage game mode optimised for gamers The new Philips gaming display has quick-access OSD fine-tuned for gamer’s, offering you multiple options. “FPS” mode (First person shooting) improves dark themes in games, allowing you to see hidden objects in dark areas. “Racing” mode adapts the display with the fastest response time and high colour, along with image adjustments. “RTS” mode (Real-time strategy) has a special Smart Frame mode that enables highlighting of specific area and allows for size and image adjustments. Gamer 1 and Gamer 2 enable you to save personal customised settings based on different games, ensuring best performance. SmartContrast for rich black details SmartContrast is a Philips technology that analyses the contents you are displaying, automatically adjusting colours and controlling back light intensity to dynamically enhance contrast for the best digital images and videos or when playing games where dark hues are displayed. When Economy mode is selected, contrast is adjusted and back lighting fine-tuned for just-right display of everyday office applications and lower power consumption. 241E1SCA 245E1S 278E1A 271E1SCA 272E1CA Maximum resolution 1920 x 1080 @ 75 Hz 2560 x 1440 @ 75 Hz 3840 x 2160 @ 60 Hz 1920 x 1080 @ 75 Hz 1920 x 1080 @ 75 Hz LCD panel type VA LCD IPS technology IPS technology VA LCD VA LCD Panel Size 24 inch 24 inch 27 inch 27 inch Curved 27 inch Curved Response time 4ms 4ms 4 ms 4 ms 4 ms Sync technology AMD FreeSync AMD FreeSync AMD FreeSync AMD FreeSync AMD FreeSync Contrast ratio (typical) 3000:1 1000:1 3000:1 3000:1 3000:1 Brightness 250 cd/m² 350 cd/m² 350 cd/m² 250 cd/m² 250 cd/m² Ergonomics Titl / VESA mount (100 x 100 mm) Titl / VESA mount (100 x 100 mm) Titl / VESA mount (100 x 100 mm) Titl / VESA mount (100 x 100 mm) Titl / VESA mount (100 x 100 mm) Speakers Yes – 3 W x 2 NO Yes – 3 W x 2 Yes – 3 W x 2 Yes – 3 W x 2 Connectivity VGA / HDMI VGA / HDMI / DisplayPort 1.2 HDMI / DisplayPort 1.2 VGA / HDMI VGA / HDMI / DisplayPort 1.2
