    Philips 276E8VJSB 27" Monitor, 4K UHD IPS, 1 Billion+ Colors, Ultranarrow Borders, Lowblue, Multiview, 4Yr Advance Replacement Warranty

    • This is the first monitor I have ever purchased that I was unable to get sharp text.
    • Text is crisp, but I would have preferred a lighter AG coating
    • Text became smooth and crisp as the MBP's video output exactly matched the monitor's top resolution (3840x2160), resulting in a fantastic display at a truly unbelievable price
    • (I have brightness turned down to 50)The only time I've seen "blurry text" appear is when the resolution is wrong
    • the text is crystal clear
    • Colors look amazing with crisp and clear text
    • It's not the worst AG I've seen, but in a light controlled room it offers zero benefit and reduces sharpness of the text enough that I notice it
    • First thing I noticed after receiving the monitor is the texts on browsers are very blurry/soft
    • Text is crisp, colors are great after some easy calibration (just search up the optimal settings for this monitor), and NO dead pixels upon arrival (either I got lucky this time or Philips is a good company)
    • Text in Word looked good with my eyes about 27" away from the screen
    • Text and fonts look great and it puts less strain on my aging eyes
    • Stand is sturdy, and the low gloss screen image is bright, text clear and readable, with a wide viewing angle.
    • The text was very choppy and blurry
    • The texts on this monitor are not good
    • Also, once during my usage, I noticed flickering on the monitor when using a dark background text editor
    • " Curved Frameless Monitor, Full HD VA --very disappointed in PPI, the text looked like a window screen
    • While this did make the text sizing correct, the text itself looked terrible, pixelated with fuzzy areas around each letter
    • Crisp, legible text
    • Once into macOS, the monitor looks great — text is sharp and clear and colors are vibrant, which leaves me a little torn
    • Text is so much sharper
    • Text is crisp, brightness is good, and refresh rate is fine
    • Text and articles are easier to read and fonts are perfectly displayed
    • Text was fuzzy until I set my graphics output on PC to 75 Hz. defaults to 60hz
    • I work as a software developer and the text is crisp and clear which is what I really care about
    • really delivers esp if you want crisp text
    • The colors are vibrant, very bright, text much smoother and refined than the old 1080p monitor and a good value for $250 (time of purchase)
