PHILIPS 34E1C5600HE 34 inch QHD Monitor, 100Hz, VA, USB-C, WebCam, Height adjust, Speakers, FreeSync (2560 x 1440 @ 100Hz HDMI 1.4/ DP 1.2 USB-C USB 3.2)

Love the fact the screen includes a webcam…wouldn’t mind more focus options but it’s fine as is.Had to use a converter for Ethernet as there is no direct Ethernet post on the monitor like its 49” cousin.Great screen once set up!

As a screen only this is fantastic!However the built in camera only wants to work when it wants to!I have tried hdmi, usb c cables (that came with the screen) to get it to work consistently but no joy part of me regrets not buying a slightly more expensive version from Philips of this screen as I know from previously employment that works consistentlyBut as a screen as I mentioned it is fantastic it’s just a minor pain the camera doesn’t work consistently

Purchased this screen second hand to replace my very old (~18years) Dell 30" 3007wfp monitor which was a daily driver until something electrical inside failed. Connecting the display to my Late 2013 MacBook Pro, happy to report it works as expected.

The clarity of the screen is incredible displaying excellent graphics, however, I bought this becasue it has an integrated 5mp webcam. The webcam is appalling! The picture it displays is very grainy and struggles to focus. There is also an awful green hue to the picture. When using an external webcam the picture is crisp and clear, perfect really, so I can only assume the screen i bouhgt and returned either had a faulty webcam or is just really awful.

I’ve had this monitor for 3 weeks now and am pleased with it, but the camera is absolutely rubbish. So if you intend to use the camera, well you’ll be disappointed!

I found out after I got the monitor for both work and gaming that hdmi 2.0 does not support 4k so my Xbox one x only works with full had. Thus I only use the display port for work

This is a stylish monitor and once you configure the picture using the monitor’s settings, the picture looks amazing. The stand is height adjustable too, which is nice. It features a USB hub, USB-C connection, HDMI and DisplayPort too. It’s more expensive than some of the other curved 34” ultrawide monitors, but I splashed out because it has an integrated webcam, microphone and speakers. Windows showed it as having 75hz refresh rate.It’s let down by the integrated webcam. The picture quality is low, and the image grainy. I bought a £25 1080p webcam from Amazon during lockdown and the image quality on that is so much better. You can’t tilt the webcam up/down either, so unless the monitor is quite low you will appear low down in the shot.The built in speakers also sound very tinny, like a cheap LCD TV. Fine for basic audio calls but not good enough if you like listening to music.I didn’t try the microphone.I’ve since returned the Philips monitor and will be buying an LG one for £100 cheaper without a built in webcam and microphone. A shame really as I wanted to integrate all my peripherals into one device.

The screen was incredibly dull even at full brightness, and at the full resolution, connected to my 2022 Macbook Pro M2 via both HDMI and USB-C this screen was truly shocking and text was barely readable. Shame, immediately returned it.
