Image quality, gaming features, design: the new Philips E2 monitor family

MMD has introduced the Philips E2 product line, which is suitable for both home and office lifestyles.

The ultra-narrow three-sided or four-sided frameless design provides maximum insight with minimal distraction and is especially useful for graphic work and professional applications. In addition, thanks to IPS panels, monitors are the perfect solution for those for whom color and detail accuracy are paramount.

“A lot of people work from home these days, so they need a screen that’s suitable for both work and play. The new E2 series is a good choice for those who want to combine essential functions with a design that matches modern interiors, ”says Artem Khomenko, Senior Product Manager, MMD Monitors & Displays Europe.

High resolution means more pixels and more detail on the display, which is key for professional users such as graphic designers, CAD users and architects - but they are also highly valued by all other users. The new E2 series delivers a great visual experience, and models ranging from Full HD to 4K UHD provide excellent image quality (thanks to Ultra Wide-Color technology, which displays 1,07 billion colors).

Monitors in the E2 family offer wide viewing angles for vivid color images and deep contrast levels. SmartContrast also enhances the visual experience: this technology analyzes the currently displayed content and automatically adjusts the colors and backlight intensity accordingly. SmartImage technology analyzes the content on the screen and dynamically optimizes the contrast, saturation, and sharpness of images and videos to ensure perfect display performance.

The new series features SmartImage Game Mode, an easy-to-access, customized OSD setting for gamers. For example, FPS (First Person Shooter) mode improves dark areas in games, allowing players to more easily spot objects hidden in the shadows, and Racing mode provides a display with the fastest response time, rich colors, and other image settings.

Each of the new monitors has specific features for a better and smoother gaming experience. For example, the new Philips 242E2FA and the 272E2FA monitors with a response time of 1 second (MPRT¹), while Philips 288E2A and the 345E2AE models enable continuous, artifact-free performance at virtually any frame rate thanks to AMD FreeSyncTM technology.

The new E2 product family makes a wide range of technologies available to ensure a better user experience. EasyRead mode brings the reading experience closer to reading from paper, flicker-free technology and LowBlue mode allow for more comfortable viewing and eye-friendly productivity. These screens also feature a discreet EasySelect toggle key that allows you to quickly and easily adjust screen settings in the On-Screen Display menu, and the cable organizer provides a tidy workspace.

Some models, such as Philips 288E2A and the 345E2AE they allow active dual connection and viewing through the MultiView feature, allowing users to use multiple devices simultaneously (e.g., a personal computer and a laptop) during processes that require complex multitasking.

These monitors do not contain any harmful substances such as lead and mercury at all, comply with the requirements of the RoHS directive, and come in 100% recycled packaging. They are also Energy Star 8.0 and TCO certified. The packaging is fully recyclable.
