Philips has introduced the affordable 24B2N2200G monitor. It is aimed at budget-conscious gamers but is also suitable for everyday use thanks to its good color reproduction and eye protection features. The Philips 24B2N2200G features a 23.8-inch IPS  In Plane Switching (IPS) panels are an expensive option but they have excellent colour accuracy and far greater viewing angles then TN and VA panels (Not that we condone slouching while gaming). They are great for graphics design and photo editing. However, the only downside to IPS panels if that they can sometimes have a slower response time than TN panels. This is the only real problem if you’re a very competitive gamer or want to game in 3D. As of late “IPS” has become a big marketing word. Step into an Apple store and you would be hard pressed talking to someone that didn’t mention Apple’s “brand new IPS Displays!” In fact, Apple is probably one of the biggest marketers of this “new-found” technology. As a business person myself, this is when you have to tip your hat to Apple’s awesome marketing machine. Why? Well, because IPS is actually nothing new. In fact, this technology was originally invented in 1996 by Hitachi..display with a resolution of 1920x1080 pixels and a backlight brightness of 350 cd/m². It has 8-bit color depth (16.7 million colors, 111% sRGB, and 101% NTSC), a refresh rate of up to 144 Hz, and a response time of 4 ms (GtG).The monitor supports a blue light filter, and the backlight operates on direct current to eliminate flicker. The settings also include an EasyRead mode to simulate a sheet of paper when working with text or reading e-books. The list of features is rounded out by 2-watt stereo speakers, HDMI 1.4, DisplayPort 1.2, and D-Sub (VGA) ports, as well as an included stand with tilt adjustment. The monitor is already on sale in China for $95. |
