Within this article we will take a closer look at the technical specifications of the 276B9H monitor from Philips. For this we will talk about all possible categories that could be relevant. To start with, we will look at the display, talk about the design and in the next section we will go into the features of the monitor. Other features such as power consumption, connectors and certifications will follow later in the text.
Display
Texts, videos and/or other applications can be displayed on the 27 inches ( 68.5 cm on the diagonal) of the monitor. While classic CRT monitors were built with a screen ratio of 4:3, this monitor has a ratio of 1.778 : 1 (width to height). Approximately 87.7 % of the front surface of the monitor is taken up by the display, while the remaining part is screen edges that do not allow the image to be displayed. If you want to place several monitors next to each other, it is advisable to choose models with narrow edges. The display is a IPS panel. The panel has a resolution of 2560 x 1440 px. The pixel density is 109 ppi. The pixel pitch is 0.233 mm. The continuous possible brightness specified by the manufacturer Philips is 350 nt. The panel is illuminated by W-LED. The built-in panel ensures stable color reproduction of the image, even at deviating viewing angles, by means of its 178 ° (horizontal) viewing angle. Philips promises stable color reproduction moreover within a 178 ° vertical angle. The refresh rate is horizontally seen at the 276B9H 30 khz to 114 khz. Vertically, however, the image renews at a minimum rate of 48 hz up to 75 hz. The minimum response time of the monitor is ms. The display panel is Anti-glare/Matte (3H).
Color space
The panel has a bit depth of 8 per color channel, but what does that mean? The number of bits determines how many colors can be encoded for the individual pixels of the display. For an 8-bit panel, for example, this is 256 different colors (2^8 = 256). However, since we usually display three different colors per pixel at the same time, in theory about 16 million (256^3) different colors are possible by mixing the three pixels. A 10-bit panel could even display a billion colors. According to the manufacturer, the coverage of the NTSC 1953 color space is 111 %. According to the manufacturer, the coverage of the SRGB color space is 124 %.
Contrast ratio
Contrast ratio is a common measurement used to represent the maximum relative differences in brightness between black and white. It describes the ability of a screen or projector to produce a high-contrast image and is the quotient of the maximum and minimum displayable luminance. The higher the values are away from each other, the stronger the quantitatively seen difference between black and white is set up, which in turn results in an improved image quality. This monitor from Philips has a static contrast ratio of 1000 : 1 , according to the manufacturer. In contrast to the static contrast ratio, the dynamic contrast ratio changes the brightness of the panel itself in addition to the difference measurement from black to white. In addition to the difference between the brightest and the darkest pixel, the backlight is thus changed. Since the brightness of the panel may not be able to be adjusted exactly to a single pixel, a so-called halo effect is possible. The value of 50000000 : 1 of dynamic contrast ratio for the monitor 276B9H cannot provide any information about the severity of the halo effect here. Therefore, it is more useful to compare the static contrast ratio.
HDR
The monitor supports all HDR modes listed here:
screen design
Without the stand, the monitor comes with a width of 61.4 cm , a height of 37.2 cm and about 6.1 cm.
If you want to place the monitor described here on the desk without a wall mount, you should allow for 40.8 x 61.4 x 26.3 cm (HxWxD) of space. As for the weight, Philips states a total weight of 7.85 kg with stand. A wall mount should be designed for at least 5.1 kg to hold the 276B9H neatly and securely. Speaking of weight without a stand and thus wall or table mounts. The monitor supports a Vesa mounting. A height-adjustable stand ensures an improved ergonomic posture during use. The monitor can be moved to a maximum height of 15 cm. This value is always measured from the bottom edge of the screen.
Rotate, tilt and swivel
The monitor from Philips has a pivot function and can thus be rotated using the included stand. A rotation to the left is possible with up to 90 degree. To the right, the monitor can be rotated by 90 degree. The 276B9H can be swiveled when mounted on the included stand. Pivoting to the left is possible up to 175 degree. Pivoting to the right is possible up to 175 degree. The tilt of the monitor 276B9H can be individually adjusted to optimize the viewing angle and increase comfort during use. The angle of inclination to the rear is 30. The monitor can be tilted forward by 5 degree.
Ports
camera
For online meetings, video telephony or streaming, the 276B9H can boast with a built-in camera. The built-in camera resolves with a maximum resolution of 1920 x 1080 px when taking pictures with the camera. The built-in camera has a maximum resolution of 1920 x 1080 px when recording video with the camera.
Loudspeaker
The monitor from Philips has integrated speakers, for playing sounds, music or speech. The sound is emitted via 2 speakers, which are integrated into the device. Each of the built-in speakers has a contingent of 2 w power.
Features
- Flicker Free: Philips 's Flicker Free technology minimizes distracting screen flicker, allowing you to work and/or play longer without restrictions.
Anyone who works a lot on the computer spends many hours a day in front of the screen. Excessive screen work can damage the eyes. This effect can be particularly pronounced during the darker hours and in the winter months. Many monitor manufacturers have now reacted and offer technologies and settings to reduce the blue component, which is primarily controversial. Depending on the manufacturer, these can be called "Low Blue Light", "Low Blue Light Technology", "SoftBlue" or even "Eye Saver Mode" and function differently. However, it is only important that Philips offers a technology to reduce the blue content in its monitor 276B9H. The Adaptive Sync feature of the 276B9H dynamically varies the monitor's refresh rate and responds to the game's required frame rates.
WiFi / Bluetooth
Power consumption
The average consumption was given by Philips as 19.7 w. In standby mode, the device consumes approximately 0.3 w. In ECO mode, the monitor consumes 18.6 w. The monitor can be operated on a 110v power supply. The monitor can be operated on a 220v power supply. The power grid has to supply a frequency of 50 hz to 60 hz.
Environment
The monitor has a built-in ambient light sensor, which can be used, for example, to dynamically adjust the brightness of the monitor to the ambient conditions. The maximum height at which the monitor may be operated, according to the manufacturer's specifications, is 3.658 km. For temperature, the maximum permissible ambient temperature is 40 °C. Below a temperature of 0 °C , the monitor from Philips should again not be used. The humidity must not exceed 80 percent. At least, however, 20 percent humidity. The monitor may be stored at a maximum humidity of 80 percent. The minimum humidity during storage should not fall below 20 percent. The maximum storage temperature should be according to Philips 60 °C. Minimal were given by Philips -20 °C. According to the manufacturer, the monitor may be stored at a maximum height of 12.192 km.
Packaging
The monitor is packaged in a cardboard box measuring 46.2 x 69 x 25 cm (height x width x depth). The box together with the monitor weighs about 10.35 kg.
