Philips 27B1U5601H 27″ Business Monitor Review

Display Analysis

The display actually can deliver some really solid colour performance, albiet, I should hope so given the price and the IPS panel, but regardless, I’m very happy with this.

What the hell happened here? Well, it turns out the default setttings enable DRS, which is “dumb really stupid” mode I think… It dynamically changes brightness and colours, and it makes a right dogs dinner of it too. Turn. It. Off.

With it off, bam, things are much better.

Again same here, wit ha really uneven white point.

turn it off, however, and things are really fantastic.

This one made me chuckle, the colours did admittedly look good, but they’re wildly inaccurate.

With that feature disabled, the monitor is hitting professional levels of colour accuracy. It’s a little high on the blue, but it’s under 5 Delta-E which is very good. Set the monitor to warm mode or turn on the filtering and you can adjust this to suit though.

As a child still in my 30's (but not for long), I spend my day combining my love of music and movies with a life-long passion for gaming, from arcade classics and retro consoles to the latest high-end PC and console games. So it's no wonder I write about tech and test the latest hardware while I enjoy my hobbies!
