PHILIPS 328E1CA 32 Curved Monitor, 4K UHD, 120% SRGB, Adaptive-Sync, Speakers, VESA, 4Yr Advance Replacement Warranty

Very easy to set up. More than excellent for everyday computer use and web browsing. Purchased mainly for flight simulator and the 4k visuals are amazing. Good product for a good price.

I was searching a long time for a monitor that was ultrawide, curved, with USB-C, and PBP. My previous monitor was VA, and I tend to work in a dark room, so I prefer VA for the deeper blacks. I have a laptop I want to hook up to the USB-C port (that can be charged also) and my desktop PC hooked up to the display port. Eventually I stumbled across this one and it checked all the boxes. Im pretty satisfied, and would recommend it. The screen is large and beautiful, with a good curve. I mounted it on the Amazon Basics arm and it looks really great. There is a USB hub, but it is meant for the USB-B connection, not the USB-C so keep that in mind. The hub ports wont switch between inputs - they stay with whichever computer is connected to that USB-B port. I havent used the PBP that much, but it did work when I tried it. The built in speakers are ok, but I hooked up some external speakers to the aux port and they switch between inputs fine. There has been a few times that Windows didnt detect the monitor speakers, but havent seen that issue lately - a reboot usually resolves this. Also, I am able to run my monitor at 100hz also without any problems - I have an AMD RX570 graphics card on my desktop. Overall, at this price this was a great purchase. I was considering other monitors that were in the $700 range with similar features. Some of them had USB input switching (i.e. kvm) but Im ok without that.

I am glad I took back my 2 Samsung monitors to get this Philips one. Great price. The picture quality is much better and your get sound.

This has been a great monitor except for 1 thing: There is alot of color banding - like there arent enough colors for different darks, so differences in shading dont blend, its a hard stop and start. Also wont support HDR. I thought I saw that in the ad, but I guess I was wrong.

Great picture and good refresh rates but does not support HDR.

I’m a huge fan of the Philips brand, this doesn’t disappoint at all. Great picture, clarity is amazing. I do wish this came with a remote but hey it’s not a tv but that would be a great luxury. I use this with my M1 Mac mini. And will definitely recommend to anyone.

Bought a pair of the Phillips 32 Curved Monitors (328E1CA) to replace a Dell 34 Ultrawide. Really liking the extra height of these monitors and the increased resolution. Text is so much sharper. And, 32 is a comfortable size to keep 4k resolution native (no windows scaling). Although I think 34 would be the perfect sweet spot for native 4k. I was pleasantly surprised to discover that I could mount two of these on a single Amazon Basics Premium Dual Monitor Stand. This setup works beautifully because of the 1500r curved of these monitors. The extra screen real estate is addictive. Not sure I can go back to a single ultra wide and using two of these. Ive always owned IPS panels, so this VA panel took some getting used to. I love the absence of flicker, but the colors are noticeably different than Im used to. Not terrible, but not great either. I wont have any calibration equipment, so it may be possible to get great colors. But out of the box, Im not sure I would trust this monitor for any work requiring accurate colors. Text is crisp, but I would have preferred a lighter AG coating. Its not the worst AG Ive seen, but in a light controlled room it offers zero benefit and reduces sharpness of the text enough that I notice it. That said, the text sharpness is still a big improvement over the 1440p monitor it replaced. Overall, for the price, I really like these monitors and would REALLY like to see an IPS version of this monitor with the same 1500r curve, no AG and 120Hz.

Best design out there!

I originally ordered another brand of monitor but when it arrived it wouldnt work, it just flashed different colors. Amazon recommended I contact the manufacturer as it was under warranty and I thought new monitor already has problem vs returning and picking a different monitor. 2nd choice won and I am glad. I wasnt familiar with this brand of monitor but it met my search requirements and had good reviews so I took a chance and have not been disappointed. Ive been using this for 8 months now and am very pleased, I have had no problems at all. The colors are great and there are no blank or dark spots on the monitor and overall it looks good. I would definitely purchase this brand of monitor again.

Its a good size - though actually to big for my desk (thats on me). Im disappointed with color fidelity. Ive spent hours trying to calibrate the color and make it match the Macbook from which content is shared in my dual-monitor type situation and the colors are just always off. I also dont think it should take 4 hours of straight fiddling to try and get colors the same. Its not like the colors are way off, but Im extending my desktop and it duplicates the desktop background image and the colors are just different. It doesnt look horrible, but they dont match. I understand a Macbook is a better product than a standalone monitor like this, but its still frustrating. After about 9 months of usage it has started to flicker, where for a few minutes at a time it will just change its base color temperature. Its comparable to watching night shift take effect on a phone (and no, its not night-shift on my macbook) but the overall color temp will just sort of be more yellowed and less blue for a few minutes at a time, then itll randomly flicker back. Its visually annoying but not disruptive since all Im doing is emails and other boring work things. If I was gaming Id be furious, but Im just a spreadsheet jockey so its not THAT bad. Overall its fine, it does what I need, but Ill probably be looking to replace this in the next several months if the flicker continues or gets worse, or if the color differences begin to bother me too much.
