Awful repeat set ups, not adapting resolution

Consider anything but this monitor: Windows Hello does not work as is documented in many threads with Windows 10, etc. The monitor has to be set up every time it is unplugged, it does not charge via USB C, the menu system takes tons of time to scroll through, and I still do not have it scaled to size.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

LCD - ok but accesories - VERY POOR
on September 18, 2020
Posted by: JacekPL
I bought this LCD because it has an advance it means a lot of accessories included i.e. webcam, and usb hub - most significant for me. Unfortunately - booth works poor, and finally i can't connect lcd with one usb cable to my mobile laptop at home. 1 - camera dont working properly because on 720p are the horizontal stripes and flicker. 360p works ok on messenger, skype, teams etc... 2 - even if the camera has 360p, after running video transition on communicator, the usb turning of signal from hub on some milliseconds (sometimes 1s) for each 3-10 second time step. Finally mouse is still in some lag because of interrupts the connection 3 - I bought new one camera (now are expensive about 100Euro) and connected to TV HUB and ok - signal was fluent, without noise on 720 even 1080p, but still the usb connection interrupting and losing signal on milliseconds.
And I understand that it can be USB bandwidth, but from my side as a client it should works. For me it is same significant as display quality, because i using laptop and 1 cable connection possibility was a one of the criteria to buy.
Windows updated, drivers for LCD newest one - installed.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Does not work properly with 2018 15" Macbook Pro

The maximum resolution it supports with Mac OS 10.14.4 is 3840x1080. My computer is a MBP 15" 2018 with 2.6Ghz i7 32GB ram and Radeon Pro 560x 4GB graphics card.
The maximum resolution the monitor works at with my MBP is 3840x1080.
The webcam doesn't provide any video feed at all with Facetime, Skype or Zoom.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love the features of the built-in camera and speakers. When watching videos at the loading, I find that the footage is pixilated, but the monitor corrects itself in 5 seconds. I can live with that.

Great monitor overall for work and play

great monitor, purchased it in 2019, still running strong. no problems with any of the MMO games that I play. Does charge thru the USB-c KVM port, just some notebooks are particular about charging and the charger used. No RFI problems at all, monitor is about 40 yards from my shortwave transceiver antenna. Only problem has been switching between PCs using the built-in KVM sometime will cause the built in USB hub to flake out which requires turning the monitor on and off. great monitor for work also working on many columned spreadsheet or have two web browsers going and one and switching between them.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Excellent monitor, great resolution, built-in cam

I have been using the monitor for several weeks connected via a USB-C to a Microsoft Surface Studio notebook. The USB-C powers and charges the notebook! Resolution is set 5120x1440 on the 49" screen and 2400x1600 on the notebook. I installed Microsoft's PowerToys app and am using Fancy Zones to divide the 49" screen into three logical partitions and the notebook into two. Color and resolution on the Philips is very good. I also am using the Philips' built-in camera for Zoom and Team meetings. It works very well. I have connected a Jabra speaker/mike via one of the screen's 3 USB-B ports (as the built-in mike could be better. The built-in speakers are fine.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is exactly what we were looking for. Nice display multiple options. Couldn't go wrong with this purchase!
