Philips debuts three highly affordable displays for home workers — but no 4K resolution

Philips 27E1N1600AE .

Philips is expanding its E1 series of business monitors with the addition of three new models designed to cater to the needs of professionals and remote workers.

The high-end Philips 27E1N1600AE comes with HDMI 1.4 and USB-C 3.2 connectivity with 65W Power Delivery. The 27-inch IPS panel offers QHD (2560 x 1440) resolution and HDR. The model also comes with a 100mm height-adjustable stand.

The other two screens, 24E1N1100A and 27E1N1100A, come with FHD IPS panels, measuring 23.8 inches and 27 inches respectively, and feature a frameless design with narrow borders.

VGA port for older computers

Philips says these screens are ideal for multi-monitor setups and include a cable management system for a tidy workspace. They both come with HDMI 1.4 ports and in place of the 27E1N1600AE's USB-C 3.2 there's a VGA port on both models. 

The IPS panels promise vivid colors, and a 100Hz refresh rate with 1ms MPRT and Adaptive-Sync. They also include SmartImage Game Modes for ‘light’ gaming.

There are built-in 2W stereo speakers, and the monitors also feature LowBlue Mode and Flicker-free for comfortable viewing and EasyRead for a paper-like reading experience. 

The Philips 24E1N1100A, 27E1N1100A, and 27E1N1600AE are available to buy from UK retailers now

The Philips 24E1N1100A and 27E1N1100A retail at an affordable £94.99/€119 and £109.99/€139 respectively. The Philips 27E1N1600AE, with its QHD display, will set you back £199.99/€249, but you'll want to shop around to see if you can pick it up for cheaper as there are better models from other makers available for that price.
