hi everyone I'm Ricky from Tech Talk and today we're going to do our full review
of the Philips modern monitor model number 245 c 7q j SB this is a 24-inch
ultra slim and wide color monitor from philips so as you can see from its
footprint here on my desk it won't take up too much space and it
will be ideal in office or home use the stand is made of aluminium which is
strong and stable with a nice symmetric design either side and that triangle
design follows up on the back as well when I turn around to the back we will
show you that the bezels are black and very thin on this device is an ultra
slim and very thin narrow bezels as you can see we have a silver bit running
across the bottom and on there you'll find the model number you'll also find
your energy star stickers there as they've had a seven rating also in the
middle you'll find the Philips badge which is coloured and highlighted in
white when powered on you can change this in the menu setup which I will show
you and then when in standby mode white and then off so some of the key specs I
want to go through this display with you it weighs two point eight seven kilos
and this is with spanned consumption wise of power it will take 13 Watts when
powered on and 0.3 watts in standby it has an IPS screen technology and this is
where we get these stunning viewing angles as well and there turn this to
the side in a second and you'll get to see the stunning angles that you can
view this monitor adds and you get this great color representation here it looks
so much clean and crisper on this monitor compared to other ones that I
use at the moment it has a white LED backlight it's a sixteen point nine
aspect ratio so is a full HD display and that's 1920 by 1080p at 60 Hertz and
that gives a pixel density of 92 it has 5 millisecond response time or latency
it has 1000 to 1 contrast ratio and 20 million to 1 Smart's contrast ratio
viewing angles is a hundred and 78 degrees and let me just show you what
that means so we have a night sky image here and if I turn this around
you can see that you do not lose any perspective of color now as you can see
right from the edge here you can see the thin bezels as well and how slim this
model is you can also see that the color representation is still the same this
monitor also offers flicker free technology has smart image inbuilt which
I will show through the menu has sixteen point seven million colors to choose
from and you get such a wide array of colors on this monitor we have a
showcase of images coming up very shortly as well also has srgb built in
the size on the footprint of the monitor the height is fifty four point one
centimeters width is forty one point two centimeters and its depth is nineteen
point seven centimeters and that is with spans this could be used with Mac PC or
any other connection device that uses display port HDMI or VGA and then you
also have an out port for your audio so once plugged in headphones or speakers
you'll get to listen to audio there is no speakers built into this monitor as
we're looking on a side view of the monitor here you can see the very thin
bezels we do have it coming out a little bit along the side there but that is to
house all its components and its connectivity at the back so as we have a
side view here I want to show you its tilt ability so it will tilt to minus of
five degrees and then it will tilt to plus twenty degrees very easy to do so
on your desk or if you have a monitor riser you can change and adjust this to
your needs so turning round to the back of the monitor and first of all our
connectivity harbor you get so many choices plug in multiple different
devices and to use with multiple different products so I have tested this
with an Apple TV through the HDMI my macbook through the HDMI that was how
you've seen it in the first part of the video I've also tested the PlayStation
and other products google chromecast works absolutely fine through the
display port i've also tested with my macbook pro as well sadly i don't
any other products to test with VGA but it's nice to see that port is there as
well and also you have an audio out well it's fine with headphones and speaker if
we then move to the left-hand side but it would be on your right-hand side when
turned around is your joystick or control stick for your menus and your
options and that's smart image selection you'll see your power supply there so
you'll plug in your power supply it does have a brick so you can either put this
on the desk just behind the monitor or if you like me you can hide this away
somewhere and also for extra security down here in the far right hand corner
or it will be on your left hand corner when turned around is your Kensington
lock so with your smart toggle or your smart stick at the back of the display
and it's on that the right hand side here we push to the right hand side
you're gonna pull up the menu so inside here we have low blue mode you then have
inputs to change either to your VGA HDMI or your display ports in picture we get
a wide range of settings so you have picture format you have brightness we
have contrast we've got sharpness you don't have smart color smart tint smart
response contrast gamma pixel orbiting then overscan so you just press it to
the left to go back and in audio you have volume and mute in color here you
have color temperature srgb and then user define languages we have a multi
range of languages here next you have settings for horizontal viewing vertical
transparency and OSD timeout and we have setup so you've got the power LED you
can change resolution reset and information on here available to you and
if we toggle to the left you have smart image choice so we have text office
photo movie aim comedy low blue mode and then off then you can choose these
depending on what you are using so if I plug in the PlayStation for instance I
would put in gaming mode if I was reading a text document I'd change that
to text document or if I was editing a photograph you can then edit a
photograph as well so pressing up on the toggle will take you into your inputs up
so you can choose which inputs use going down on the toggle will take you to your
volume controls you can move up or down in volume and going to the left again
will clear it all out and then you're ready to use your monitor then finally
I'm going to show off the main feature of this monitor and that is Philips
technology ultra wide color gamut they have built in and the colors just pop
and sparkle so nice and I want to bring you a showcase of images so just to wrap
up my review on my first ever monitor review on the channel so massive thank
you to Philips for trusting me to give their Philips modder monitor 24 inch
full HD IPS technology display my first review so with this ultra slim design
it's very narrow bezels it looks stunning in any use so at the moment is
sat on my office desk using in the office for home use as well it be
absolute perfect great style great design and 24 inch seems perfectly well
with the narrow bezels it seems a lot larger to myself I personally will be
switching to a philips monitor I'm so surprised with its color representation
thanks to its philips ultra wide color gamut technology built into the display
it has shocked me as a pictures look alive and they pop with color and design
with its flicker free technology as well your eyes will be protected thanks to
its low blue mode which will be in the selection and the smart image selection
with a great range of choices that autocorrect to whatever you select from
gaming movie photos text office use or even the low blue mode option and then
just to finish off as you can see the image is going through here with that 20
million to one smart contrast ratio the pictures just
come alive I am so surprised and so shot as soon as I turn this on I was blown
away by the image from my desktop and as you can see here the night sky is alive
